WELLAND SHIP CANAL Theatrical At the Allen, "He who calls the tune must pay the Piper." So the old proverb runs. That it is one of the truest maxims in life is set forth in vivid colors in Maurice Tourneur's production of "The Foolish Matrons" which comes to the Allen theatre next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Here is the anéwer to what every woman wants to know, and what ev- ery man thinks he knows -- what makes a successful wife? It is a story that wil] get the most blase. It is different, ines and it is hard to say which is Sections 3 and 4 Combined. -- NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS SEALED tenders addressed to the un- 'dersigned and 'marked "Tender for fong- 3 and 4 Combined, Welland ip Canal" will be received at this office, until 12 o'clock noon, on Weds nesday, October 5th, 1021.

Two of the women fail to make a success of marrlage--it is the third woman, that comes not empty handed, but bearing spirit. ual gifts, who realizes to the full what marriage may mean.--Advt. At The Strand. A delicious satire on 'gentle grafters;" people who neglect to pay their bills, #¢ "Bham," which will be shown at the Strand on Monday, and the two following days, in a comedy of decided appeal. It is a Paramount picture, adapted from the Elmer Harnlg and Géraldine Bonner stage success of some years ago. Perhaps the most striking. feature of the offering is the smooth and oven quality of the acting. From he aharming star, Ethel Clayton, down to the most inconspicuous 'extra', the cast is perfectly chosen. It is seldom indeed that one fills in a single film such capable fun-makers as Sylvia Ashton, Theodore Roberts and Walter Hiers, And when to thesa are added Clyde Fillmore, Arthur Carewe, Helen Duhbar, Carrie Clark, Ward and Eunice Burnham, 'ail equally capable, the 'combination is irresistable, The story is one of exceptional strength. It tells of Katherine Van Riper of high social position, many debts and mo money. Shall she mar- ry for mohey or for love? It is an old, old questfon--but one that never loses iis interest. It is a production that will make creditors and all others chuckle with mirth. "Sham" is a typical example of tha high-class productions which will characterize the programme at the Strand during the coming season, throughout which "quality" will be the distinct aim of the management. --Advt.

Early this morn- ing, troops from Fort Sam Houston are patrolling the city and aiding in rescue work. The water supply is cut off, as is the electric light and tele- phone power, An estimate of the loss of life reaches as high as five hun- dred by police and fire officials, Swollen by heavy rains of the past few days, the San Antonio river and Alazan creek overflowed into the down town business district, spread- ing over an arez of about twenty- four blocks, and inundating the ground floors on many of the promi- nent buildings of the city, A FOOLISH RUMOR, ---- The Usual Horse Races Will be Run at the Fair. There is a foolish rumor going the round lately that the programme of the Kingston 'Industrial Exhibition, the fourth largest will not include any horse races this year. The rumor has even been cir- culating among well-known horse- men, and lke everything ot its kind has grown rapidly. Needless to say, the alarm ls abso- lutely without foundation. The races will be run this year, as usual, and it is hoped to make them bigger and better than ever. Several good entries have already been made, with all likely horses on the list, and the re- mainder will be received up to Sep- tember 17th, ' ------isset Body of Essad Pasha.

Stripped to the waist, after the custom of the old slhve auction, they declared their willingness to work by standing be- fore a crowd of thousands, offering their services to the highest bidder. "Shorn lambs of unemployment," thelr auctiorieer, Urbain Ledoux, call- ed them. Ledoux, a philanthropic worker who recently opened the "Church of the Unemployed" at 31 Howard street, in the west end, led a group of 50 to the common to bring home, he said, to the people of Bos- ton their stories of human misery, just as William- Lloyd Garrison pleaded for the slaves on the same spot seventy years ago. It was to prove that his charges were not para- sitic floaters, but instead good citi- Zens out of a job, that he put them on the block, he said. Ledoux's efforts to get work for his men were not rewarded.

Shortly after ward at the western mit of the town the same occurred. The chief of police had just left for home when he heard the .hot, and at once made investigation. No damage was dona, and so far.as known no one was shot at, an no one except from the auto did any firing. An auto arriving from Kingston a short time later met no car on the front road and so thel matter remains a mystery.
