NICKLE, FARRELL & DAY, Solicitors for the Administrator, Hallowe'en Novelties { "Foolish Wives" THE DAILY BRITISH AMUSEMENTS 1 Aden bsdoteonidbionn dd | What the Press Agents Say About i Ls I I i Coming Attractions There is no 'use our saying it, but the fact remains, the Rex Stock Com- {pany certainly draws bigger cr lwith comedy than anything p {Not but what they play drama very well Indeed, in fact some of their best work has been heavy drama, but nevertheléss, a8 Rex says, "The cus- tomers want to laugh," and he seems to have made that his creed, and mission in life. Rex has the faculty of not going to either extreme. Ab- solute farde is not a good diet for an audience and they soon weary of it. On the other hand they have proved that they don't want drama, there- fore the happy medium must be found, and Rex has hit it, with a line of comedies, that while they are comedy all through, have 'just en- ough heart interest, and human touch to please all and give a little sub- stance to the play. His choice of play for this. week is very good. Most of us are familiar with the story of "The Man on the Box," and we cannot imagine a more amusing coachman, or a more vivacious, pleasing and pretty Betty than Rex and Zana: Joe Kelly has the part of the young friend, and Bill Seymour plays Count Karloff. "The Man on the Box" will be the offering at-the Grand for the last three days of this week, and from the look of the scen- ic department, it is going to have a very swagger stage setting. * Human Hearts," Remarkable for strength of story, acting and direction, "Human Hearts," at the Allen Theatre to- day, etands forth as one of the great- ©8t motion pictures = seen here in many months. House Peters, the star, 'again proves his night to be 'termed ome of the finest emotional actors on either stage or sereem to- day. "Human Hearts' is the story | | Rex Stock This Week. | | Carlo--Lovely Qirls bot family life dn the Ozark Moun- | tains, Peters is seen as Tom Logan, a simple-hearted son of the soil, who looks about the world with trust- fulness and helpfulness. -- Foolish Wives" Is Great. Ask your friends who were at the Strand' Theatre last night to see what they thought about it. They. will tell you they have not seen such a production for years. As to its story it is one that will make you talk, and for scenery nothing better has been shown on a screen in Kingston. "Foolish Wives" is the biggest ploture of its kind brought to this city. It cost more than a million dollars to pro- duce and when you see it you win believe that and wonder how they did it so cheaply. You will be amaz- ed. Be early tonight. a -------- ORANGEMAN 65 YEARS, -- The Burial of Laj.e William Hadden at Wellington, Wellington, Oct. 21.--The funeral of the late William Hadden was held on Saturday afternoon from his late residence, Station Street, to Welling- ton cemetery, with Rev, J.

An organ recital giv- |en in_the church by the Rev, Canon [Smith, Cataraqui, was much enjoy- jed. A sacred solo, well rendered by |J. Sedgwick, and one Dy Miss Mary { Leech, were much appreciated. | Dinner was served from 6.30 to [8.30 in the basement which was de- corated for the occasion by the young people of thé church. The tables |Lone very inviting. A capable | committee supervised the prepara- [tion of the dinner and many who | partook thereof expressed their ap- |preciation of the same, A bevy of ladies and young girls waited. atten- tively on tables. A number of young men poured hot tea and coffee. After the meal was served, an en- joyable programme was given con- sisting of community songs, a brief 'speech from Rev. Canon Jones, King- ston, Rev. Mr. Stafford and Mr. Sine. Dean Starr, of St. George's Cathe- dral, Kingston, then gave a brief out- line of his recent visit to the Old Land and France, referring in touch- ing terms to the poppies blooming amid the crosses o'er the graves of the late war heroes. He referred also to the hopeful spirit of England at the present time amidst all her trials. Rev. Canon Smith, of Cataraqui, favored the audience with the stir- ring song "The British Lion." Miss Smith sang very sweetly "The Same Old Story." Miss Daisy Woodcock, Harrowsmith, a young girl of prom- ise, sang very acceptably 'Smilin' Thro." Mr. Sedgwick, always a fav- orite, gave a solo in his usual happy style. Percy Foxton also sang a solo, ' Mr. Foxton is always heard with pleasure. Dr, Craig, Verona, delighted the audience with several songs. Dr. Craig is bubbling over with music and cheerfulness.

The Toronto Globe says: At Hamil- ton on Saturday Queen's and Tigers were penalized eo often for offside interference that the crowd was yell- Ing for the whistle to be taken away from Rbes Craig, one of the officials. While one side was perhaps penaliz- ed as much as the other, Queen's had the misfortune to draw their penal- ties in situations where it cost them dearly. A scecth They Go All Ways, Thers will be a general exodus from Kingston to Toronto over the week-end and the travellers will go as best they can. The latest way has been offered by J. D. Godkin,who will charter his big closed Reo bus to any party wishing to make the trip at a reasonable rate. His big closed coach would make comfortable and chummy travelling and # will not be long before his offer is snapped up by some Kingston group or college club, THE NERCANTLE LEAGUE Baseball Representatives Wind Up the Season on Monday Evening. Richardson Stadium will be tha scene of a Snappy rugby match when R. M. C. and McGill IT meet in the semifinals of the intermediate intercollegiate, During the past few years McGill has not won many times in the intermediate, but al- ways they manage to put up a stiff battle and a game worth watching, The cadets are figuring on an even harder row to hoe this season and have just finished hard work In preparation for the event. When the two Red and White squads take the field tomorrow the fans will have an opportunity of 188 seeing, not only two of the highest | 177 |class of intermediate teams, but In- | dividual players who will in many cases be figuring in the senior inter- collegiate next year or that follow. ing. All Quiet at Queen's. Everything is quiet in senior cir- cles at Queen's this week. The hard- est game of the year is ahead of tha tricolor squad in Toronto on Satup= day next and every man connect with the rugby squad knows it fro George Awrey down. "Billie" Hughes and his pal '"Boohoo," are not raising any particular fuss, but '"Boohoo'" has been noticed taking particular pains with his daily exer- cise and spends much time prepar- ing his beautiful coat of fur for the ebentful trip. There has been noth- ing definite given out concerning special transportation arrangements for Kinggton fans, but many of them intend going if they have to ride bicycles. A special train would mean the biggest contingent that ever left Kingston for Toronto for an athletic event, Favor Varsity to Win. The Montreal Gazette says: *On their showing 'Varsity appeared to greater advantage than Queen's did here the week previous, 'and as far as McGill followers are concerned 'Var- sity are favored to retain the cham- pionship. The blue and white played as fine a game as has been exhibited by any team here in many seasons. They wefe perfect in every depart- ment from the line to the kicking halt back and the team work was beyond reproach, the plays moving fast and with precision." -- Soccer Game a Tie. In a game filled with exciting and close plays, the R.M.C. staff and R. C. A. teams fought to a 1-1 draw in a scheduled soccer game at the R.M.C. grounds on Monday after- noon. At full time, the captains of the two teams agreed let the game stand as a draw, a the fix. ture will be decided at a later date, providing the result should have any bearing on the championship. For the college, staff, Capt. Fip- ney, Ashton and Harrison were the stars, and their splendid work on at- tack and defence kept their team in the running from start to finish. Campbell was the outstanding play- er for the artillerymen, while tha rest of the team played a steady, though not brilliant game. The teams: R.M.C. Stafr, R.CA. Middleton ... «sess Bramall Pew 0...

A wire to Toronto reveal- ed the fact that there is not a single ticket to be had from there, and the Queen's office has recelvad requests from Toronto for tickets; It was amusing to see the desk of Athletic Director George Awrey piled high with letters containing money orders, cheques, and cash this morn- ing, none of which could be accepted.
