P. George and Joseph Amodeo In Police Court--Greek Ran When Italian Made a Pass at Him. In Police Court on Friday morn-| ing, M. P. George, a Greek fruit deal | er, ¢laimed that Joseph Amodeo, anu! Iialian fruit man, had grabbed hold | of him and threatened to kill him, | when he was about to post a letter | in the mail box at the corner of Prin- | cess and Clergy streets, on Thursday | afternoon, but after the evidence had | been secured, the Magistrate said! it was quite clear that George was) the one who stgrted the trouble, and didmissed the case, The evidence of Amodeo and wit- | nesses showed that George had made | Some uncomplimentary remarks to-| wards Amodeo, who admitted that he | attempted to strike George, but that it was in self-defence after George had made an attempt to strike him. | Jealously over business, appears | to be at the bottom of the trouble. | Amodeo was defended by T. J. Rig- ney, but George had no counsel, | fighting the case himself. i George claimed that Amodeo made ! an attempt to strike him.and that he ran away. "You were a 'neutral' queried the Magistrate. ACTED | then?" ! | THEATRICAL NEWS | At the Grand. - The Feldman-Christie Musical Comedy Company drew a large at- tendance at the Grand Opera House | last evening. A fine musical com- edy was presented, "When Dreams Come True." The vocal selections by Beatrice Williams, Agnes 'Geary, Mamie Geary and Messrs. Bayard; Nelson Adair and Williams, were very pleasing. The dancing of Bay- ard and Geafy and the specialty by the girls were well received. Feld- man and Christie upheld their repu- tation as comedians. To-night the company will present "The Girl From Kokomo," and on Saturday matinee and night "My Wife's Family." The Grand Opera House will, on| Monday, return to its regular policy | of presenting high class vaudeville and pictures and for the first three days of next week an excellent pro- gramme has been secured. John Mas- on, will be seen in the Dramati¢ tri- | umph "Jim the Penman." A comedy picture and a two reel Universal { photo_play will also be shown. The | vaudeville will include George Moore | in a novelty juggling act and Clarke | | and Suits in a comedy singing act. | -- -- -- i RUGBY ON SATURDAY | Between Queen's and Team of The { Overseas Troops. The opening game of the newly {formed City Rugby League, om the | Athletic grounds to-morrow after-! moon, promises to be cxceedingly in-| | teresting, apart from the fact that {some of the proceeds will be devot- &l ed to Patriotic purposes, the person- jal of the two opposing teams, ll Queen's and Barrieficld Camp cver- | seas soldiers, provokes the deepest {interest.

The bandages were sent | to Capt. F. Welch, in care of Col. A. | E. Ross.

Among those who contributed wefe Howard Fair, who gave violin selections; Peter Fair, John Allcorn and R. J. Nawes, who recited, and Gordon Jamieson and Peter Fair, who gave solos.

Whe Are Becoming Discouraged At Trading Lives For Russian Land ~--May Attempt to Take Kiev, With the Russian Army, Sept. 22. --There is every sign of an early winter. Peasant prophets all agree that natural signs indicate it to be a long and severe one. It seems in- credible thus late in the season the Germans should contemplate launch- ing a further -advance in this country which is already bleak and dismal, swept by cold raw winds without a| important town between Dvinsk aad Pskoff which can be| dangled before the eyes of the sol-| diers as a bait to sustain their mor- ale, which, in spite of advatees, is! Jaging perceptibly. The first taste of the rains and cold, now being ex-| suffering even if the Germans pro-! ceed no farther than Dvina. i It seems the probable situation far-! ther south may reach a similar stage, ! |at once the Russian line is reunited | furthér German progress merely rep-| resents trading Russian acres for Ger-| man lives. Many experts believe the! Germans advancing in this zone willl gradually "dig in." The possibility of campaigning in the south in a later session lends col- or to the opinion widely expressed in {army circles with the last big move- ment of the Germans on this front this year will be a swing in the di- | rection of Kiev. > The spectre of winter ahead and the graduszi realization of the Ger-| mans that their summer campaign! has given them nothing but huge, affecting the German] troops, regardless of official state-| ments from Berlin, 1 believe it to be! an' absolutely correct statement that] the German soldiers are more dis-| couraged by the German adventure] than by any other episode of the| war. The Russians are suffering small] Josses. compared with those of the) Germans. DEMONSTRATION CAR HERE. Showing What Can Be Grown in New | v Omtario. That the opportunities in New On- | tario are many is shown at the Onta- | rio Government's demonstration car, | which has been in the city for a | couple of days, near the C. P. R. sta- | tion. In addition to a fine exhibit | {of 'things grown in this part of the | country, the car also has a fine col- | lection, of views. | R. A. Jones, of the Bureau of Colo- nization, Parliament Buildings, To- ronto, is in chargé of the exhibit, and has been kept very busy explaining the opportunities of this clay belt, for but what was grown by the farmers in this country, and placed in the car. Every farmer fn New Ontario is a booster, and it is for this reason that it is going ahead so fast. Ev- ery farm i do his best. Every farmer this district should see the exhibit. The car left the city Friday afternoon'at 5 o'clock for Glenvale, and will remain there zll day Saturday.

CBITUARY The Late Thomas Vanhorne Death made a sudden claim, in Thursday evening, of Thomas Van- horne a wellknown and very highly respected resident of the city.

Slavery Foretold. Winnipeg Free Press. A German economist has written a book foreshadowing military in- dustrial slavery for Germany after the war. He says heavy losses of the war to make up, Germany will be able to compete in the world's markets with the United States only if industries on military lines, with en- forced conscript labor at such rates |! of pay as the State may see fit 10 give. fanciful; and tainly a pleasing one! 14 nothing more than, that Germany will become a slave State, with the mass of the people under compul- sion. In the background wiil be the taskmaster with hi lash and the sergeant with his firing-squad. It is becoming clearer all the ime that nothing less than civilization as we know it is at stake to-day, with the issue trembling in the balance. A victory for German ideals means that the world will be organized on the lines of ancient Egypt with twentieth century frills. Threshing Machines Kept Busy. The men who own threshing ma- shines and who have been doing threshing for the farmers through- out the district have been kept on the jump.

Vigorous Treatment. The last but not least of the Queen's annual rushes was held on! Friday mornisig when the Science freshmen clashed with the sopho- mores... The clash came shortly after nine o'clock when with abeut thirty- five on each side, the juniors and seniors started in each to decide which was the superior, It took three quarters of am hour but by that time experience on the part of the sophomores brought them out' victorious and the freshmen all were. laid on the ground in a circle secure- | ly tied up. Paint, fiy-paper and flour | appeared from nowhere and in an- ther few minutes the appearance of | those being initiated was much! changed.
