LUKE'S HALL ' ON | THURSDAY RUENING The Mission Spirit Was Very Stroug == Able Addresses by Revs. T. W, Savary, R. S. Forneri and J. Ww. Forster. f On Thursday - evening in St. Luke's Sunday school hall, a supper was ten- dered by the Ladies Auxiliary to Si. Luke's branch of the laymien's mission- ary movement. There was a good turnout énd a good programme, = in- chiding addresses from 1. W. Savary, W. Saunders, M.A.,. Rev. i. S. For nevi and Kev, J. W. Forster; a solo by James Saunders; and some fine sele- ctions from the orchestra, which St; Luke's Sunday school has the honor ing. Defore all this, a delic- ious supper was served by the Ladies Auxiliary to which, through J. Mur- ray as mover and (i. Compton as sec- onder, a hearty vote of thanks was ; . With supper over, W. Saun- rs took the chair. He stated that St. Luke's was to be congratulated in | being able to devote so much of its time to mission work, Mr. Saundets paid a glowing tribute to Rev. T. W. Savary for the work he has done in connection with, St. James church. . Ar. Saunders claimed that there was much 'room for missionary work yet, and pressure must he brought te bear so that Poth men and money be se cured to enable the good work to continue. At present a firm hold is upon China, in the way of christianiz- ing that country, but a still stronger one' must be had to prevent confus- cignism from obtaining too firm a grip. Canada and United States are] alteady liberal givers to this mission- ary cause, but there is much more money that could be spent if such fool- ish habits as the smoking of cigarettes * (and other like things were done aw ay with. 'The money that is Sent in such foolish pastimes as these, would 'go a long way in spreading God's word. ' | Rev. T. W. Savary congratulated the rector and fellow workers of St. Luke's church. The subject upon which he spoke was '""Our National Responsibi- lity For Missionary Work." . He said that Canada must play just as im- portant a part, as Israel did long - ago. The latter place might be' con sidered to have failed in its mission but nevertheless the truth of God radiated from it. Canada has already spent much money, but in addition to this we now require men and these of the first class to go and act as God's disciples. Canada has the resources, and there should be no hesitancy on its part to devote a still greater in terest in mission work, than ever be- fore attempted. Mr. Savary gave a statistion] memoranda of the waste which from year to year is dontinually going on throughout Canada by peo- ple indulging in smoking cigarettes and other evils. He stated that i some of this were only turned into the good cause, there would not be a country on. the face of the earth which 'would be able to do so much in the way of missionary work. { Rev. R: 8S. Forperi said that he was glad to live that he might wee these missionary banquets. Continuing, .he said, that natives of heathern coun- tries, always very fond of missionary banquets, but in these cases the mis- |sionary formed a fine dish for these iprimative people. | Rev. Mr. Forester declared that even {with all our wealth we are yet lacking and it is now abou time that we Fe | solve to do what we can in our re | sponsibility towards God. He spoke in strong. words against those people [who refuse to open their purse' towards missionary werk, but would soone: {spend it on pleasure. Mr! Forester was 'also of the opinion that the Protest | ,ant churches should be united and go with one front against all evil which might threaten God's work. In conclusion, H. Jennings moved a vote of thanks to the speakers, sec onded in this by W. Carroll. } -- WHO'LL BE COUNTY WARDEN?

That Kingstonians appreciate patronize high-class drama was By and ain evidenced last evening, when William ¥aversham, presenting 'Julius Caesar' played to a capacity house 'at the tirand. It wag an approving audience, L00, as abundantly evidenced Ly the applause that burst out spontaneous. ly at times. Faversham, himself, as sumed the character of Marc Antony, | and his work is too well known to need much' comment here. Suflice to say that as an intérpretion of Shakes pearan character He has few equals oni the 'of to-day. Perbaps IMs finest effort last njght was his funeral oraiion at the bier of Caesar. This was particularly sell done, and credit. is also due to the rabble, led by Herbert De Guerre, as a eitizen shoemaker, for making this scene very realistic. "Casca" foutid" an able interpreter in * Arthur Elliott, while the heavy parts of "Brutus" and "Cassius" were ably played by R. D. Maclean and Pedic de Lordoba respectively. Charles Webster, | as 'Caesar, portrayed, that character' after the description of Plutarch--not as the ecommandihg Ro- man Gomfueror, towering above his fellows jm ull the qualities of valor and genious, but as a petty tyrant, sometimes an invalid, but always a braggart and a bluster. This type of man, which varies from some concep- tion of Caesar, was more ably por- trayed by Mr. Webster- The scenic investiture of this play has been admirably carried out. Not only is it beautiful in color and de sign, but is said to be a faithful portrayal of the Rome of the early days. The speetacular settings show- ed the ancient city in all its pomp and splendor. One could not but feel the exeellence of it all-the setting, the costumes and the perfected work of the artists, led by*Mr. Faversham and Mr. Maclean. It was a privilege to witness 'such 'an interpretation of Shakespeare, and the audience "show- «d its appreciation by demanding a speech from Mr, Faversham, a favor he courteously granted. Fhe Late James W. Halligan On Thursday the death occured in New York city of James W. Halligan, son of the late John Halligan, King- ston. Rev, Father R. T.
