JAMES MULLEN ARRESTED FOUR TIMES IN TEN DAYS. Mrs, Mary Bowman Found Drunk In Macdonald Park--She Will Be Placed On the Prohibited List. Drunk and gathered in by the po- lice four times in ten days is the rec- ord of James Mullen, who appeared in the Police Court on Wednesday morning charged with being under the influence of liquor, and was taxed $15 and costs or one month in the county jail. As Mullen has not the necessary funds, this time he will likely go to jail. During the win- ter months he was not before the court, mainly due to the fact that he was wintering on Howe Island. The other day he borrowed a boat belonging to John Foley and rowed to the city. He had only been here a short time until he "got under the weather" and was placed in the cells, He was fined $3 and costs, The scc- ontl time he made his appearance he drew the same fine. On Monday when he appeared he "got" $10 and costs, On these three occasions he was able to pay his fine with the money he hdd accumulated during the win- ter months, but his funds are now all gone but three cents. "Mrs. Mary Bowman, you are! charged with being drunk," said the Court. "Will you give me a chance to go on the list," said Mrs. Bowman. "1 might consider your request," said the Magistrate. "I will allow your case to stand over until Thurs- day, and during that time the police matron will see that your name is placed on the prohibited list." Mrs. Bowman has been before the Court on many occasions on the charge of drunkenness. On April 5th she was fined. Her great de- sire for liquor keeps getting her into trouble. . On Tuesday afternoon the police received a call to Macdonald Park, where Police Constable Marshall found Mrs. Bowman in a helpless condition. She was so drunk that ol could not tell her name, and was yg down by the shore. -------- News of Troops in the City (See also page 12.) Miss A.

For Friday afterncon and Satur- day matinee and night, Hazel Dawn, one of the screen's 'most charming stars will be featured in "My Lady Incog," a laughable detective story.

The original cast will be seen here, headed by Lawrenc Grossmith, one of 'Eng- land's foremost comedians. The story of "Nobody Home" tells of Freddy Popple, of Ippleton, England, who comes to New York to visit his brother, Vernon, New York's most famous dancing teacher, and of his winning the love of the prima donna of the Winter Garden, Tony Miller, who has been much sought after by the wealthiest men of the metropo- lis. Freddy is a shy, whimsical chap of the "silly-ass' type, very slow and calculating and as played by Lawrence Grossmith is one of the most delightful characters of the pro- duction. One of the special attractions of the play is the dancing done by Quen- tin Tod and Helen Clarke, the latest "finds." @ The 146th Minstrel Show, The 146th Battalion minstrels had another successful practice last night and will hold another to-morrow night. Everything is in good shape for the big event on Friday evening. | The plan opened to-day and there was a strong demand for tickets. A] fine feature of the programme is the | introduction of so many pretty girls, | who will add greatly to the enter-| tainment and gice it a flavor of the musical comedy shows so popular now. The Spanish dance by the young ladies will prove to be a hit. The end men are going to spring some "new ones" and Will White and Jules Brazil, the favorite Toron- to Comedians will keep things on the hop. A full chorus of fifty will swell the musical programme into most attractive harmonies. It looks like a big night for the.friends of the 146th Battalion.

The much-talked-of, photo-drama, "The Battle Cry of Peace," is being shown at the Griffin' Theatre to-day and to-morrow, and bids fair to cre- ate as big a furore ingKingston as it did wherever it has been shown in the United States. To give a gen- eral idea of the scope of the subject, it should be said that the author im dgines the United States as being in Her Hii the position of Belgium--at the mer-| cy of a brutal and bhraggart foe. This | foe--the enemy is called. ""Rurita- nia," and wears a modified German helmet--has defeated the American fleet and landed an army, which ad- vances on New York. That city is shelled, and its skyscrapers toppled to the ground. The army. outnum- bered, makes a last gallant stand against incomparably superior artil- lery. Finally the United States, conqueréd and on her knees, is forc- ed to sue for peace at any price. That is the story in barest outline. It is in the details--in the individual his- tories of a small number of citizens of the United States--that one real izes, perhaps for the first time, some- thing of the full tragedy and the full horror of the proceedings of the Ger [vw nnn man army in Belgium. As a story, as a spectacle, and as a sermon on the necessity for military prepared- ness--it is based on Hudson Maxim's book, *"Defenceless America," and its object is stated as being 'to show the criminal folly of peace babbling while a powerful nation exists, in- spired hy blood lust, and possessed of an ambition for world domina- tion." ' "The Battle Cry of Peace" constitutes a class of its own. There has been nothing before with which one can compare it. And if there are to be similar films in the future one cannot well imagine them better done. Hundreds Turned Away.
