TRAURSDAY, MAY 26, 1021. x THE DAILY BRITISH WHIC. +F- -- _ Theatrical At The Allen. Maurice Tourneur"s "The County Fair," is announced for a special en- @agement at.the Allen theatre com- meneing to-day. : The story is taken from the play dn which Neil Burgess starred all over the country for many seasons. It is one of 'those studies of rural American lite which are chuck full of heart interest, quaint humor and all the excitement incident to a day at a county fala winding up with a thrilling horse race in which the "entry of the leading characters not only triumps over the crooked schem- ers In winning the event but taking down a purse that saves the farm for Aunt Abigail and her deserving associates. * It has been likened to a trip to the &ountry on a sweet sum- . mer day and has taken the motion | pletare world by storm. Presented With a special musical score.--Advt. At (he Strand Many a gruelling race has been Won or lost on the home stretch. Johnny Hatdwick lost what he * thought was tho big race of his ca- | reer when his cherished *Honeyblos- | som" crashed, a-struggling heap, into | the dust of America's most noted | metropolitan track. When the same | "Honeyblossom" romped home an easy winner in the feature event of | 8n obscure county fair, Johnny . thought that the big race, and the ttle girl, of his whole existence Wad | been won--but they hadn't. Into the tive reels of "The Home Stretch," Douglas MacLean's latest Paramount | comedy, which comes to the Strand for the next three days, are crowded more clean, wholesome, hilarious hu- mor, more gripping drama, and more | thrilling action than any picture in | which he has appeared since the un- forgettable "Twenty-three and a Half . Hours' Leave.' An excellent support- ing cast includes Beatrice Burnham, Livingston, Wade Boetler, les Mailes, Molly McConnell and t Whitman, --Advt. Christian Science and Well-Being John C.

ESCAPES (Continued From Page 1) ' Escaped In Ford Car, ; Woodstock, May 26--Norman Gar- field, escaped convict, is still at large. To-day the authorities are just as much in the dark as they were last night. Not one trace of Ben Johnson's murderer has been heard Butside of a report from Hickson, seven miles north of here, that he had passed through that village shortly after his escape in a Ford. car, stolen from El- mer Hossack, who lives two hlocks from the jail. Very much interest cen- tres in the actions of Rev. Mr. Gaetz, Garfield's spiritual advisor, who was brushed aside in the jail corridor by the prisoner when he was escaping. The question is now asked: "Why didn't Mr, Gaetz follow Gar- field out to the street and then sound the alarm?'* Baseball players and others were just across the street and could possibly have intercepted Gar- field -in his escape. The family of Elmer Hossack wit- nessed Garfield take the car but at the time thought another member of the family was just going for a ride. It was learned that the jail offi- cials had never regarded it as neces- sary to strip Garfield of his blue serge sult, and he was allowed to have his peak cap in.the cell. He was under care of two guards who worked twelve-hour shifts. He made his getaway therefore, in complete civilian attire, Reward of $1,000. Toronto, May 26.--The provincial Bovernment announced to-day that a reward of one thousand dollars: would be paid for the capture of Norman Garfield. The attorney-gen- eral will make application to Ottawu for postponement of the date of hanging, which was set for June 2nd. Rev, Mr. Ga®ta's Story. Rev. Mr. Gaetz was interviewed this morning concerning the action he took yesterday when he witnessad Gardeld go out the door at the jail without following him, and giving the alarm to people who were across the road in the park. Mr. Gastz sald: I was not Garfield's guard. It was not my -plice to follow him out on the street and give the alarm. In fact after Norman knocked me back, 1 had not fully recovered before he had unlocked the door, was outside and had slammed the gate shut again. I did what I thought was my uty and ran back to find the guard for-whose safety, I was concerned. I did not know what might have happened to him. When I reached the stairs I yelled to him and hear- ing his voice above, went to him. I found the cell key in the door, un- locked it and released the imprison- ed man. I think I took the proper course and believe the jail officials will bear me out in the ' action I took." : The escape of Norman Garfield on Wednesday from the Woodstock jail where he was awaiting execution on June 2nd is the subject of much local comment, because his brother Denton Garfield, is serving a sentence in the Portsmouth penitentiary, When ask- ed ~hether word had reached Denton ( d of his brother's escape, War- G nsford said: "No, and no word OL cue escape will be communicated to him, and no statement as to how the prisoner feels over the escape of his brother will be made public." Bé- yond this Warden Ponstord had no- thing to say, as he had not, himself, heard of the Woodstock escape, up to that time he said. ------------ REGIOPOLIS CADET CORPS Made a Very Fino 'Showing at the " Inspection. The inspection of the cadet éorps at Regiopolis college took place at the college grounds on - Wednesday morning aud the corps was: in full Strength, 110 being on parade. Lt. Col. G. H. Gillespie was the inspect- ing officer, and Capt. the Rév. Father Nicholson, dean of the college, was present to sée the work performed. # At the conclusion, Lt.-Col. Gillespie expressed great satisfaction with all he saw and compliiaented Lieut. Nool Gill, cadet instructor, and the boys upon the splendid showing, He stated that rifle shooting would be provid- €d for in the near future. From the material available at the collegs he wag of the opinion that one of the finest corps in the district could be raised there. Father Nicholson thanked I4.-Col Gillespie tor his words of praise, and congratulated Lieut. Gill gn the ex- Ss unit, He gave tho boys a halt holiday in recogni- tion of their work, ------------ The Diamond Queen.

In the presence of only a few im- mediate friends and relatives, a very quiet wedding took place at 2.30 on Thursday afternoom, at "Sunnyside," when Dorothy, daugh- ter of the late G. Y. Chown, was united in marriage to Howard Douz- las Dewar, eldest som of George 1. Dewar, Ottawa. Dr. Alfred Laveil, uncle of the bride, assisted by Rev. W. T. G. Brown, pastor of Sydenham end should be among the best play- short time since these two teams at the end and their lead maintained only by the hardest work. Knowing what they are up against the visitors will bring in a strong team and will work hard for the vie- tory as they always do. The fans will remember the Deferiet games here last summer as some the best of tha season. / On Jung 8rd and 4th Ottawa Sena- tors come here. Here is another crackerjack team, and, although they played only two games here last year, those games were good ones. Proulx, their catcher, is still with them. Only last Sunday Proulx played an the op- posite battery when Skuce, the fam- ous City League twirler at Ottawa, went down to his first defeat this season. Ogdensburg is billed for the 10th and 11th of June and, although the team "brought here from that town last year turned out to be a farce against the locals, altheugh they did provide some good entertainment, it ed here this summer. It is oply a | played a close game in Deferiet, the | score standing 2-1 for the Americans [an arch at one end of t street Methodist church, officiating. The beautiful rooms were fragrant with the,lilacs and ferns used for their decoration hand which formed he drawing room where the ~eceremony took place. The sweet-faced girlish bride wore a simple wedding gown of white georgette and #atin, with lovély Princess lace, and a tulle wedding veil -fell from her dark hair. Her bouquet was of sweetheart roses and lily-of-the-valley. Miss Barbara Clark, her flower girl, was frocked in yellow organdie, and with her Dutch lace cap and basket of pink and mauve sweet peas, made a dainty picture. Immediately after the cero- mony dainty refreshments were serve ed and then amid many good wishes Mr. and Mrs. Dewar lef( for Algon- quin Park, where they wiil spend th honeymoon, returning inter to ty home in Ottawa. The bride trav led in a navy blue suit of tricotine, hat of navy mohair aud wore the gift of the groom, a fur choker o} Hudson Bay sable. The out-of-town Buests were George I. Dewar, Miss Mary Dewar, Leonard and Gordon Dewar, Ottawa. Miss Laureda Me- is said that the genuine ball-playiug thing is on the job this year for ihe river town and these games will tell | the tale. These six games look good to the fans and the financial secretary of the Ponies is hoping that they will each look good a quarter's worth or 80. Fat Men To Play, Heavyweights of the Kiwanians and Rotarians are to be called into action. A burlesque baseball gama between the heavy ball tossers is to be played in the near future, and wi'l prove an attractive feature. It is hardly expected that there will be many practices, as most of the play- ers will depend upon former cricket, football and hockey efforts to prce pare them for the contest. It is be- lieved that the exItbition, if not first- cidss in a technical sense, will at least provide considerable amuse- ment for the spectators. Bowling Games Postponed. The semi-finals in the Rockwood hospital bowling tournament, which were to have been played om Wed- nesday evening, had to be postponed on, account, of the dampness until Thursday svening.
