Of This Magnificent Princess Street. Jewelry Store-- An Orchestra To Discourse Music. There is probably no finer jewelry Store between Toronto and Montreal than that of R. J. Rodger"s new store, 132 Princess street, just across the road from the Randolph Hotel. Com- ing from Toronto seven years ago, Mr. Rodger succeeded F. W. Span- genbérg, and continued in the same premises on King street until March 1st this year, when, after making ex- tensive alterations, he moved to his new location. When interviewed Ly our reporter Mr. Rodger stated that the old stand on King street, although the oldest Jewelry store in Ontasio, was some- what off the line of general traffic, and in order to serve a greater num- ber of people with the least amount of inconvenience to them decided to move to Princess street. Last Noy- ember Messrs, Power & Sons, under instructions from Mr. Rodger, drew plans especially adapted to the needs of a first-class jewelry establishment, On entering the premises the "dia- mond room' is seen immediately to the left. This room is fitted with table and chairs where at your lei sure you 'may inspect one of the fin- est stock of diamonds, both mounted and inset, that can be seen in the whole province, Sending out of town for diamonds is a waste of time, when such a selection is right here in Kingston, Another department of interest is the silverware, consisting of Cana- dian and English Hall marked "so- lid silver tea sets, flat silver and cut- lery, in addition to the less expen- sive plated ware of reliable makers. The cutglass room is apparently the only one in Kingston, and is stocked with a very complete selec- tion of fine cut glass and crystal, most suitable for gift purposes. Ad- Joining the cut glass room is a test room in connection with the optical department, which is also connected with the testing room where the op- tometrist makes his eye examination using all the most modern and scien- tific apparatus known. Convenient to the consulting room is the grinding plant, 'which is run by motor power, where special len- Ses are ground correctly to prescrip- tion, by automatic machinery. Anoth- er and important feature of this mo- dern store is the engraving and em- bossing department to which is in charge of one of the finest expert en- gravers in Canada, where you can order copper plate wedding announ- cements, visiting cards, also steel dies for cresting and monograming. Note paper. Geo. B. Hurd's New York Stationery 'being used. Mr. Rodger, being to the Inspector of the Grand Trunk and Canadian Pacific railways, employs three ex- pert watchmakers who are capable of repairing the very finest class of watches and clocks. The jewelry ma- nufacturing plant occupies a large room in the rear of the store, and is equipped with modern 'machinery and tools for both manufacturing special pieces to order and for re- mounting of old jewels into modern designs, The formal opening is for the pur- Pose of giving the people of Kingston and vicinity an opportunity to visit the store without thought of pur- chasing. A first class orchestra will render selections from three until 5.30 o'clock. Beer Prices Remain Same Here. Beer is going up in price in To- ronto after May 4th. From . that date the price of beer will be in- creased by two cents on quart bottles, tWo cents on pint bottles and twenty- five cents on kegs. The, Kingston situation is not affected by the in crease. In Such slight rises the Whig was informed the retailer has to stand the advance, and it is taken out of profits rather than make an increase in the price to the customer. Presented With Medal.

The Jitney Bus Service Will Be Taxed To the Utmost. The "'jitney-bus". service to Bar- riefield this year will be the heaviest ever seen in Kingston, The price of second-hand cars has been kept up, and large numbers of new cars are on order. Everybody in motor circles talks of the prospects of the trade to the military camp. Last year there were seventy-five cars en- gaged in the traffic across the 'bridge although this number was incredsed on holidays and when there was & special demand for transportation to the city. This year with three to four times as many soldiers in camp the propor- tionate number of busses would be 400 to 450. If this number are on the road it will certainly make the Righway from the city to Cart- wright's gate awfully Lusy. Last year almost every evening there was a constant procession up one side of the hill and down the other. This summer the road will need the most stringent trafic regulations, | Letters tothe Editor ua A Call to the "Talkers." Kingston, April 27.-- (To the Edi- tor): Now that the brave Z1st Bat- talion has been in action and demon- strated its worth as a fighting unit on the bloody fields of St. Eloi, it is surely a fitting time for those "gal- lant" stay-at-homes to come out like men, and acknowledge that they were wrong in their criticisms. If these same men would cut out their re- marks about the big salaries officers are getting they would at least be helping, by their silence, thosn who are endeavoring to do their duty. Re- peatedly it has been stated by these busybodies that certain officers are drawing down fabulous sums, when as a matter of fact the opposite is the case. For the benefit of the unini- tiated it might be stated that a lieu- tenant draws $2 a day and 60c field allowance; a captain draws $3 a day and 75c¢ field allowance; a major, $4 a day and $1 field allowance; a lieu- tenant-colonel is paid $5 a day and $1.25 a day field allowance. As each officer pays his own mess fees of usu- ally 76e¢ a day, and 'also pays his or- derly extra, it will be easily seen what a munificent salary they are paid. If the officers are satisfied to put up with sums that are far below wha they made in civil life, the icast the "talkers" can do is to give them cred- it for their sacrifices instead of offer- ing the mercenary suggestions that have been altogether too commonly used. CITIZEN. Dog Nuisance Again. Kingston, April 27.----(To the Edi- tor): The dog nuisance is with ug again, and the useless canines are once more wrecking front lawns which are not fenced in. Dog own- ers cry out of course if some one drops a morsel of poison to catch these vandal animals, but they never think of the destruction and nuisance their '"'pets' cause other people. think it is up to the civic authorities to see that the dog nuisance ends. The nuisance can be ended if the Council would do its duty. RESIDENT. CELEBRATION FIXED FOR 24TH OF MAY. A Citizens' Committee Is To Assist The 146th Bat- talion. There was a very large and enthu- siastic citizen's meeting in the City Council chambers on Wednesday evening to discuss the holding of a celebration on May 24th instead of on June 3rd. Mayor Richardson presided, and the horseshoe was sur rounded by interested citizens It was decided that a celebration would be held on May 24th by the 146th Battalion, and that those who had done se much in the past few years for the King's birthday cele- bration would give their assistance in every possible way. The funds of the King's Birthday Celebration Committee, 'howeveF, would not be touched, and next year the usual pro- gramme will he carried out. A meeting has been called for Monday next"of the King's Birthday { Celebration Committee, and arrange- ments for assisting the 146th Bat- talion are to be carried out. -- Calgary's Big Municipal Reform, Montreal Herald.

FORTUNATE BELGIANS, -- A Dollar Will Sustain a Belgian For A Month--Contributions Are Ure geniy Asked, Montreal, April 27.--~An Montreal. er who is interested in looking at the statistical side of every question, pro. vided there is a possibility of such a thing, has been considering the work that. has been done for the Belgian Relief Committee by Canadians and those visiting this tountry in their interests. While he has not yet re- duced his deduction to actual figures he has discovered that hundreds of people all over the Dominion have Spent many hours and given the equi- valent of many dollars for the cause of the millions of the hungry in Bel- gium, ! In summing this up the layman can appreciate what this means. Scores of musicians, many of them of the rank that receive several hun- dred dollars for gz single concert, have given their services to the cause On the whole the movement has. been second only to that for the national patriotic fund. | If these! highly paid artists aré willing to give of their talents, ener- gy aud money the committee believes that the average Canadian is willing to do his share That is why such an urgent appeal is being made for funds. , °' While the winter has gone and the most bitter season has passed the fact remains that the Belgians must be fed and there are three millions of them absolutely dependent upon gencrosity of Canada the States and Australia for the three slices of bread and pint of soup that comprise their food for each day. Not only are these three million people--the wives and children of our heroic Al- lies--destitute but there are four million--more who are almost whol- ly relying on Canada for food. A dollar given to the Belgian Re- lief Committee, 59 St. Peter street, Montreal, means sustenance for a Belgian for nearly a month. When this is considered, it is within the op- portunity and reach of nearly every Canadian to help. A small sacrifice will help a big cause if the money is directed through the proper channel and that channel ig the Belgian Re- lief Committee. HELD A "SOCIAL EVENING." i St. Paul's A. Y. P, A.

Low and Capt. C. J. Kane and other officers came in during the evening and Col. Low, on behalf of the military men tendered those in charge of the affair a hearty vote of thanks for the pleasant even- ing provided. Many Divorce Actions. Watertown, N.
