Comrade Bowker gaye notice of motion that the Dominion Executive be asked to institute the referendum system of government A very interesting report on the Hamilton Convention was given by Comrades Connor and Bowker. The local "delegates took no part in the discussion in which the Y. M. C. A. was condemned, as it was felt that the Y. M. C. A, has done and is doing good work for their comrades in France, and ought not at this time to he - kicked, but * should rather be boosted. Orders have bean sent out by the Military Service Council to re- gistrars not to call up any more "B" class men. All that are need- ad for the present thavg been secur- ed. Additional calls though will be made in the future ds they are re- quired. General Maunsell, DS.O., M.D. No. 3. is one of the board of examin- ers of candidates to the R.M.C.

If the camp continues to grow there may be a reoccurrence of the cond!- tions of the summer of 1416. when j hundreds of taxi-drivers spent all of their time on the Kingston-Barrie- field camp road.

On Tuesday morning about ten o'clock the remains of Sydney Brown, 14 Markland street, were found in. W. B. Dalton & Sen's hayloft by Percy Johnston, Pembroke street, one of the employees. : Mr. Brown! whb 'Was a teamister for the firms, Jetf his hthe eatly O1f Mon- day morning to feed the horses, and he was not:seen.again until his body was found dn the loft. It is presum- ed that 'he went to the barn lo get some hay,.and was seized with a Taint spell. Noune.of the employees saw him 'on Monday, as it was a holiday, but the coroner, Pr. WW. Sands, stated that he was confident that death was due to Beart failure, dnd that he had been dead at feast twenty hours, Constables Cotter. and - Downey were summoned as soon.as the body was, found; and the remains were transferred. to Corbett's undertaking parlors. It was decided that an in- quest would be vunecessary. . It is rather a peculiar coincidence that 'the deceased's brother, John Brown; passed away over two years ago in very similar circumstances. He was found dead in the barn at the Al- bion Hotel, death being due to heart failure. INCIDENTS OF THE DAY. Local Notes and Items of General Interest, Thomas Moore, general represegta- tive of the Carpenters' Union, return- ed to Toronto on Monday. In the junior game at the cricket field on Saturday morning, Y.L.C.B.A. won from Red Sox by 15 to 1. Father Hanley and Father Casey attended the forty hours' retreat un-! | The Theatres At the Grand. All those who saw "Within the Law" will remember the wonderful work of Alice Joyce in that picture and in "The Fettered Woman," which js her latest triumph, she is seen to even greater advantage. The large audience which .witnessed this photo- play last night wére thoroughly ie. Hghted with it awd it will be shown again to-night and, Wedndsday ; tinee and night, so none should miss ft. The story is adapted from the popular novel "Anne's Bridge," by Robert W. Chambers and like all oth- ér Chamber's stories, it is brimming that it readily lends itself to picturiz- ation. Now this girl, who had never had any real happiness until the right man came inte her life, bridged the gaps between them and so lost sight of her troubles is told in such a mas terful way that if keeps was also the Pathe News, a one-reel Lonésome Luke comedy and two reels or the famous Judge Brown stories, Truedéll and Nelson, comedy enter- tainers, supplied a vaudeville act that pleased everyone and rounded out a high class programme. At Griffin's, 'The Bar Sinister," the crowring achievement of the eminent director, Edgar Lewis, creator of sudh me- morable photo-productions as 'The Barrier," '""Dhd Nigger," and 'The Light at Dusk," was witnessed by an extra large audience last evening at this theatre. It is a stirring exposi- tion of one of the most vital pro- blems confronting humanity--a pic- true that will stand as a landmark in thd evolution of motion pictures because it is the first great original | contribution to - photo-dramatic , aH over with romance, but yet so reall] o watcher interested from start to finish.
