Congregation Nominates Its Popular Vicar---The Church Has Prospered Under His Charge, The people of St. Paul's Anglican Church want their vicar, Canon W. ¥F. FitzGerald, appointed to succeed the late Archdeacon Carey as rector. After the vestry meeting on Monday night, the congregation, which at- tended in larger numbers than ever before, decided unanimously and with enthusiasm that the name of Canon FitzGerald should be submit- ted to the Bishop and that His Lord- hip should be asked to appoint Him as rector of St. Paul's, which has prospered under his charge during the past nine years. The congregation also decided that it would contribute $1,200 to the new rector's salary, which is augmented by Rectory Lands Funds and the Watkins be- quest. To show how St. Paul's is prosper- ing under Canon FitzGerald it is on- ly necessary to state that according to the auditors' statement presented Monday night at the vestry meeting, tae receipts, through weekly offer- ings, ete, were more than sufficient to pay the salaries of all the church officials, a balance of $422 being left. The open collections amounted to $803.10; thanksgiving offering $100.59; pew rents, $670; envelopes, $688; special service, $12.75. The church wardens, R, F. EHiott and A, E. M. Loscombe, were ' re- elected. C. A. Bunt was appointed vestry and envelope clerk, and W. J. Monk was re-elected missionary en- velope clerk. The delegates ap- pointed to synod were H.W. Snelling, J. W. Power and A. E. M. Loscombe. The whole meeting revealed a most successful year at St. Paul's. After the general business tlie con- gregation met to nominate a rector, and Canon FitzGerald was asked to retire, Later the decision of the congregation was communicated to him. Canon FitzGerald has been a faithful vicar and his worth is ap- preciated. Besides being an ardu- ous worker, he is one of the best preachers in the diocese of Ontario and a platforin lecturer of note. JUDGMENT DELIVERED ON GRAVELLE WILL Life Insurance Money Will All Go to Brother of, Deceased. Calgary, May 9.--Justice Simmons has delivered judgment in the case of Gravelle vs. Rudolph. This was an interpleader action to determine the. ownership of some money that had been paid into court by the Con- tinental life Insurance Company. It appears that the late Thomas Wilfrid Gravelle, formerly of Ports- mouth, Ont), had insured his life for $5,000 with the Continental Life and that his brother, Joseph W., had done the same, each being in favor of the other It was explained at the time of the trial that this was done for the protection of the busi- ness which they conducted under the name of Beverages, Limited. When Thomas W. Gravelle died on April 30th, 1915, it was found that he had willed $2,000 of the $5,000 The females of the species do a lot of figuring about their figures. to his fiancee, Miss Stella Rudolph. WH The money was paid into court byl | the insurance company, and | judgment Justice Simmons held that | all "9f the insurance was payable to {| Joseph W. Gravelle. I1S"THE BRIDGE ABLE TO STAND THE TRAFFIC ; -- 'That Will Pass Over It When the Big Camp Opens ? There seemg to be a general feel- ing prevailing 'in the city that there will be a great number of accidents, if not a great calamity, on the structure that passes by the name of bridge, leading from Kingston to Barriefield. From the appearance of this so-called bridge the feeling is not without some foundation. When one considers the great amount of trafic which will pass over this bridge, one is naturally confronted with the question: "Can the strue- ture bear up the loads that will be put upon it." The militia transports and the great number of other trucks which will pass over the bridges will tax it to the limit. Last summer when there were only about four thousand soldiers in the camp there were a large number of accidents to pedestrians. Is it not a fact that this summer with over twelve. thousand soldiers in camp there will be a greater many more accidents? What would summer evening the should collapse? There would doubtless be a large number of drownings. Are there any life preservers on the bridge at pres. ent? Is there a man whose business it is to act as a life saver? 1s there even a qualified doctor or first ald man nearer than Kingston or the camp? Some day a horse might be- come frightened and push against the railing and the railing might col lapse. Or again some auto driver might drive through the railing What would be the result? A 'temporary structure should be put over the last span of the cause way when the camp begins. FATHER AND SON DIED ON SAME DAY. Sergt. John Scott, Kingston, With 21st, Killed Recently. That 'Sergt.. John Scott, formerly of Portsmouth, who was killed in ac- tion while serving with the 21st Battalion, and his father died the same day, is the information receiv- ed in a letter received in the city on Monday morning. The wife of the late Sergt. Scott is now at: Manchester, England, The letter states that Lieut. Walker K. Macnee has received a letter in ans wer to his letter of sympathy, It is doubly sad. Sergt. Scott and his father died the same day and fam- ily received the news of the former's death when they arrived back from his father's funeral. Sergt. Scott was well known in Kingston and Portsmouth. Before enlisting with the 21st Battalion he was employed as a machinist at thre Canadian Locomotive Works. When war was declared he did duty with the 14th Home Guard but transfer- red to the 21st Battalion and went to the front with the rank of corpor- al. nd happen if on some present bridge Another Baseball League? There is some talk that another baseball league may be formed this summer.

There Were Several Interesting Cone tests--The Best Bout Was In the Featherweight Class, The annual boxing tournament of the Royal Military College was held on Monday afternoon in the college gymnasium. The staff and a num- ber of citizens took advantage of the clever exhibition of this sport. The first bout was between G. C. G. E. Crain and G. C. T. G. Birkett in novice class under 145 lbs. It was quite 'interesting, and was won by Birkett chiefly by the offensive tactics which he adopted. In the class for novices 145 Ibs. and over, Sergt. J. H. Price boxed G. C. J. Y. K. Walbank, and won. * He was superior in wind and speed, but Walbank was superior in his guard. Undoubtedly -the best hout was in the featherweight class between Corpl. F. H. Jones and G. C. R. H, Wiggins. Both these boys were fast and very game. . The bout was equal all through, and an extra round had to be fought, in which Corpl.-Jones won In the lightweight class Sergt. R. IL. M.

Nevertheless, , Robertson showed lots of pluck. FIFTY YEARS ON STAGE, Sir John Hare Celebrates His Golden Jubilee as an Actor. | The appearance of Sir John Hare on the variety stage cofncides with the fiftieth anniversary of his thea- | trical debut in London, for it was to- | wards the end of 1865, when he was | twenty-one years of age, that Sir | John made his initial appearance at the Prince of Wales' Theatre in Lon- don as Short, in "Naval Engage- ments." And itis in connection with | this first appearance in London that Sir John tells an amusing story. The play was written by H. J. | Byron, who remarked to the young actor, when he was rehearsing his part as Short, the publican, "With a short name, a short part, and a short figure, you will, in short, be perfect." "Thank you," replied Sir, John, | "but if I am a failure you will have to christen your play 'Short Engage- | ments," a reply which no one ap- | preciated more than the witty afithor | of "Our Boys." | For playing this part Sir John re- | ceived £2 a week. 'Salaries were not | 80 big in those days," he says. "For playing Sam Gerridge (in 'Caste') 1 received £6 a week. I think I am | within the mark in stating that the | entire salary-list for the company | playing in 'Caste' could not have ex- ceeded the sum of £60 a week, ex- cluding, of course, Miss Marie Wil ton's remuneration as leading actress and manageress. What would such a | cast cost at the present day?" | Sir John has many amusing and | interesting stories to tell of bls thea- trical experiences, and confesses that one of the most embarrassing mo ments of-his life was when he was playing in "A Pair of Spectacles" in Edinburgh. ! He had come to the scéne where Benjamin Goldfinch refuses to enter | tain his brother Gregory's sugges | tions and suspect his wife, when an | encouraging, but an embarrassing | call came fgom the gallery, "Well | done, old 'un! Stick up for the. missis!"" i Here is another story which Sir John. tells against himself. "I re- member nearly thirty years ago," he says, "I was playing on my provin { cial tour the part of a very old man. | A spectator in the audience said te | his neighbour | a shame to keep him working I re- member him as an old man nearly | twenty years ago | bed hours ago.' | Fined for Getting Married. | There are certain sections | communities who penalize marriage, and regard it in the light of a pun | ishable offence. It is the rule, for | Instance, at All Souls' College, Ox- | ford, that a Fellow forfeits his Fel- lowship if, when studying | classics, he should marry. In such | penalty, but must also present his | college with a memorial in the shape | of a silver cup. { By payment of a fine of £25 he | can, however, retain an honorary AML.
