Pauline Frederick, one of the Fa-i|lf welcome topical budget. For the mous Players' most popular, stars, in the programe, els a story of a child of the woods, her life insthe home, of a clergyman, and many exciting episodes, in a most pleasing manner, There will also be a two-reel Universal photoplay, a one-reel rib-splitter and the ever vaudeville portion of the bill two high class variety acts have been se- cured. Wells and Fisher in a sing- ing and talking act have a stunt that bubbles with action, while Lauva in artistic dancing and daring trapeze novelty work is also sure to please. "Battle Cry of Peace." The much-talked-of photo-drama, "The Battle Cry of Peace," is being shown at the'Strand Tlieatre, and bids fair to create as big a furore in| Kingston as it did .wherever it has] been shown in the United States. The | author imagines the United States as | being in the position of Belgium--at | the mercy of a brutal and braggart! foe. This foe--the enemy is called | "Ruritania," and wears a modified German helmet--has defeated the| American fleet and landed an army | advances on New York. | That city is shelled, and its sky-| scrapers toppled to the ground. The] army, outnumbered, makes a last] gallant stand against incomparably | superior artillery. Finally the Unit-| ed States, conquered and on her| knees, is forced to sue for peace at any price. As a story, as a spec-| tacle, and as a sermon on the neces- sity of military preparedness--it is] based on Hudson Maxim's book, "'De- fenceless America,'" and its object is! stated as being "to show the criminal folly of peace babbling while a| powerful nation exists, inspired by! blood lust, and possessed. of an am-| bition for world domination." | At Griffin's. The management of Griffin's The- atge announces for Monday and] Tuesday the most wonderful story] ever filmed, "The Spoilers," taken] from the book by Rex Beach. This | picturesque, rugged romance of Alas-| ka has a love story with splendid im- agination that grips and holds the sympathies of all who witness it. It also presents the most stubborn, | strenuous and exciting fight ever pic- tured. Mr. Carter Harrison, wife of | Chicago's Mayor, writes: "It held my | attention from start to finish; the acting is superb, anr so true that one can almost read the words from the mute lips." | The prices for this attraction will| be 10c¢ and 15¢ All seats reserved. | Lake Ontario Park. { Lake Ontario Park will open for | the season this evening with two free | | shows, at 7.30 and 9 o'clock.

F. NICKLE, M.P., GIVEN PAIR OF BINOCULARS At Meeting of Kingston Conservative Association Held on Saturday Night on Occasion of His Leaving for Overseas--aAlso Presented With Address. W. F. Nickle, K.C., M.P., left Mon- day noon on his trip overseas, having been selected recently to go to Eng- land to attend the conference of the Empire Parliamentary Association, which will convene in Great Britain to discuss imperial and constitutional matters, and to see first hand the battle fields made famous by the glorious deeds of Canadians. Mr Nickle is one of six Canadian dele- gates selected -to. make - this trip, which is being made so as to get a grasp of the problems facing the na- tion at this time. At a meeting of the Kingston Con- Servative Association, held on Sat- urday night the members paid tri- bute to their member for having such an honor bestowed upon him, and at the same time made him the reci- pient of a nice gift in the form of a pair of binoculars' in a case with the following engravng: "Presented to W. F. Nickle, K.C., M.P., by the mem- bers of the Kingston Liberal-Conser- | vative Association, June 17th, 1916." Au address also accompanied the aft. presentations were made by the president, R. N. F. MacFar- . lane and R. D: Sutherland, the sec- retary, on behalf of the members. The address was richly engrossed, the work being done by J. H. Birkett. Ih the address the members stated that they felt that it was most fitting that before Mr. Nickle left the city | they should express their confidence | in him as their member, and also their deep personal respect and | friendship for him. They recognized ! that in the last two years his burden | had been a heavy one, in that he had both Dominion and provincial mat-| ters to deal with. The members re-| joiced in the recognition which had! been given him in his selection as a | delegate for this journey overseas. In closing, the members wished Mr. Nickle God-speed and a safe re-! turn, asking him to accept the gift| as a token of their affection and es- teem, and also as a small keepsake trom his friends during his historic | trip.- Best wishes were also extended to Mrs. Nickle. . A deputation from the Conserva- tive Association gathered at the sta- tion at noon on Monday to say fare- well to Mr. Nickle.

The Magistrate! imposed a fine of $10 and costs, which | he could not cover, and he had to take | the month. | Thomas Hackett was up for va- grancy. He has a good home at the House of Pravidence, but according | to what Policé Constable Arniel, who laid the charge, said about him, he| gets drunk and then goes back to the | home and plays high jinks about the! place. | "1 was out of the police from Oct 1st to May 15th," said Hackett. The Magistrate sent him to jail for a week to get sobered up. There was a good deal of tippling over the week-end, judging by, the number of drunks who walked the carpet. The following were fined: John Kelly, Thomas Saunders, Henry FAIR GROUNDS -WANTED FOR MOVING PICTURES.
