TO CONSIDER HOLDING WEEK'S CARNIVAL IN KINGSTON The Entertainment is Offered by the Chautauqua Company -- R. Meck Was Re-Elected President of the Board, The entertainment commitice of the Board of Trade has the matter vf a week's carnival of Redpath Chautau- ia system now belore its attention. The board has approved of it and re- to the entertainment com. mittee. ~ George S. Dalgety, of New York, stated his proposition before the mem- bers at ther monthly meeting on Tuesday night. He reviewed 'the suc- cess of these one-week entertainments of the Chatauqua system, and of the continued approval of people in cities and towns where the 'company oper- ates, This summer, probably to- wards the Jast of July, Mr. Dalget, hopes to open the carnivad here. wishes to securv Kingston with Corn: wall on this side of the line. The programme provided for one week's firsi-class entertainment, of music, comedy, drama, ctc., in a large tent provided. Mr. Dalgety said these Chatauquas, for which the system has many book- ings for the coming season, have prov- en to be both city boosters and cit, advertisers, They bring large. crowds to town during the week. The talent is the best obtainable and the pre senters make use of judicious advertis- ing The Chatawquas have been oper- alors for sevén years. In return for this the eity is ask- ed to provide grounds, and {to sell 750 season tickets, and guar- antee the sale of these up to $500. Ald. Harrison spoke in favor of the Chatauquas, and a motion was passed to the effect that the board TTT HATI.Y RRITISH ¥ He 0 GRAND OPERA HO -- Edison Talking Pictures to Resume Thursday. Night Notwithstanding the severity of the weather there was a good audi- ence presant at the Grand Opera House last evening to witness the presentation of Edison's Talking pictures, The same scenes of the preceding night were produced and were thoroughly appreciated. On Thursday evening an entirely new programme will be produced in- cluding the latest novelties in Kinetophone,, Se---- To-Night Primrose and Dockstader. Primrose and Dockstader, the re- united veteran minstrel stars, will be the attraction at the Grand tonight. Messrs Primrose and Dockstader have surrounded themselves with an all-prominent organization of burnt- cork celebrities, many of baby--Dbldck, all black. "Her Own Money" One of the most notable comedy successes of the season, "Her Own Money," by Mark Swan, will be seen at tne Grand on Monday, February «6th. Julia Dean appears in the {leading role and in her support will be seen a company of notable play- ers. Miss Dean presents the role of a typical American wife--the wife of a typical American hushand-----and, in the more serious aspect of the comedy, she voices the protest of wives generally against the failure of husbands to realize the fairness and justice of granting to the bet- ter-half a fited "allowance." In this instance the wife insists that it is humiliating to a woman, despite her love. for her husband, to be com- pelled to ask him for money with entertainment committee. Season tickets at $2 will admit the holder to any and all shows during the week. The Annual Meeting The annual meeting of the board is due in March. Accordingly nom- inations for next ydar's officers were made on Typesday evening. As a whole the present ones were nomin- ated for a second term, as follows: Hon. William Harty, Dr. Edward Ryan.. President, R. Meek; dents, G. Y. Chown, J. M. treasurer, W. B. Dalton; auditor, F C. Ireland. Nom"nation for the council of the W. H. Craig, AM. T. F. Harrison,' McKelvey, Livingstone, J.

A. Shaw, R. E. Burns, Prof. 0. D, Skelton. { Mr. Meck stated that he had fully intended to retire from the presidency should he be re-nominated. Ho refer- red to some matters to avhich he had given his attention during his term of office, and said that he believed the hoard would be wise in elevating some oneg else to his office. He acknowledg- ed his appreciation of the kind things said of himseli and his activity. La- ter he allowed his name to stand. G. Mills, W. I. Minnes, R. J. Carson and Dr, A. E. Ross each voiced the sense of the meeting and eupported Mr. Meek for another term. Eleven members of the board and a representative of the local Knights of the Grip constitute the council. In response to the query of the board the vice-president of the C.1. R. wrote stating that, as that com- pany had so much on hand at pre sent, further extensions east of Belle ville could not be considered for the time being. Kingston wants the C. P.R. run right through. During - the reports J, G. Elligtt made a statément regarding the an- ticipations of the peace centenary com- mittee, on which he and Ald. H. C Nickle ame the representatives of the Board of Trade. I'he, secretary reported as to. the financial consideration of the recent onoer. i He Got Results A man told the Whig Tuesday : "You certainly get results from your Forum advertisements. I searched this city high and low for 4 suitable furnished house and finally advertised in the Whig. Next day my trouble was to decide on the best offered 'mn answer to the advt." The best man seldom wins--at wedding. ' Discolored, Wrinkled Skin Easily Remov on (From the Woman Beautiful.) Since brown or yellow, over-red = ov blotchy complesions are decidedly pot the jashion, I catnot understand why 80 many conlinveito wear them. Sure- ly every woman bas heard of mercoliz- ed wax. This | know--from my own and others' experiences--will positively 'banish every unsightly tint. The wax really takes off a bad complexion, It gradually, © harmlessly, absorbs {he thin layer of sutfuce skin with all it fects, as ps, liver spots, pi S, freckles, blackheads. Re i dually the discarded skin is replaced by the clear, white, youthful skin underpeath. Mercolized wax, procur- able at any drug. store, is applied nightly like cold cream, and erased mornings with warm water. One ounce will produce the loveliest girlish com- plexion in less than a fortuight, I can't understand, either, why folks will be bothered with wrinkles, since the famous saxolits formula has is a wash become public ty.

'There is at present a fund of $50,000 for fuvestment. As the debentures of outside places can be bought. at 5} and 5 per cent, some of the aldermen, it is said, think it would be wise to buy them inttead of mvesting in Kingston's own deven- tures ai 5 per cent. To do tiles the authority , of the cisy council must be secured. Headaches From Eje Strain Few people redlize how large %s the proportion of headaches directly due to strained eyes. This is nature's danger signal, Unless the strain is relieved serious and permanent injury to the eyes will result. H. C. Brown, Oph.D., manager of the Rodger Opti- cal: Parlors says that "over eighty per cent. of headaches dre caused by evestrain." Accurately ground lemsos fitted after a careful examination by an optometrist will overcome the eve- strain and the headdches will dis- appear. If you suffer from headaches or blurred vision consult our oye- sight specialist. R. J. Rodger, "Where the Clock is on the Walk," 347 King street, To Build a Wharf A report was presented by the city engineer and the board of works on Tuesday afternoon showing that it would cost $5,250 to construct a wharf at the foot 'of Clarence. street for. the Wolfe Island ferry and other pur- poses. The wharf would be 66 feet by 50 feet. The board recognized the urgent need of the city having a wharf ,and it decided to recommend to the council that the wharf be constructed and that the finance committee be instructed to furnish the funds. A Tribute to Kathleen Parlow "hatbleen Parlow, with the Boston Symphony Orthestra, surpassed herself in her playing of the Saint-Saens convertio. "Her performance was not only technically brilliant, but: full ol color. The great audience fell cap- tive under her 'spell and recalled her time and time again." --Sylvester Raw- ling, in N. Evening World, The Saint ns Concerto in B min- or will be 8s Parlow's opening num- ber in the concert in Gramt Hall on Monday next. She will be assisted by Miss Ursla Lawrence, soprano.
