Reid SHOE STORE --_---------- DECIDE ON TRUNK SEWER ' From Montreal Street Near Depot School Down to the Marsh. { i ---- | The Board of Works gp' Wednesday afternoon decided to recomm gpd to the city council that a trunk sewer {be constructed from Montreal street, uear the Depot school, to the marsh ia distance of about twelve hundred |feet. This could later be continued jon up to Division street and north {to the extreme limit of the fatr {grounds in order to drain land in the | "ownship of Kingston. The township |at present ds unable to make an |agreement regarding the sewer, but {may do so next year. At present |however, the sewer is needed to {drain land above Montreal street. { The board is favorable 0 erect- {ing a storm fence inside Macdonald park from Barrie street to O'Kill street 1n order to keep the snow- drifts from King street. The board has to pay out money every winter afer storms to shovel out the road- way, and it is thought that a storm fence will he cheaper in the long run. The fence will cost probably one hun- dred dollars, and will be erected If the finance committee will provide the board with a little more money Charles Martin applied for per- mission to erect a verandah in front of his house on Clergy street, between Erock and Princess. It is in a brick row which is right on the street Mine, and a verandah would encroach on city property. It was intimated that some neighbors had objections, as a verandah would block their view of the street. The matter was left in the hands of the oity engineer to de- aide, In attendance at the meeting were Ald. Graham, (chairman) and Alds. Richardson, Cohen, Driscoll and Nash, RT. HON.

The Maggie L. belonging to the Donnelly Company, and the tug Wm. Davis also cleared for the vessel. The tug Mary P. Hall was unable to reach the schooner Lyman Davis, | owing to the heavy seas raging, and | was forced to return to the city. Marine men state that it is almost impossible to get men to sail the steamers this time of year. The government tug Mary Stewart, which arrived in the city on its way to Sault Ste. Marle, experienced consid- erable time In getting sufficient men to man the tug. It is a common oc- |currence for the captains to pick up a crew and when the time arrives to sall none of the men who promised to go are available. On Thursday jmorning the departure of the tug was delayed on account of the lack of men. The tug Mary Stewart cleared for Sauk Ste. Marie on Thursday morn- DE. . The steamer Mapleboro arrived down from Port Colborne on Wed- nesday night and. cleared for Mont- real. She will return here to lay up} | for the winter. The steamer Simla entered the Collingwood Shipbuilding Company's "will probably lay at Port Dalhousie for the winter. Se -- -- WEEKS DRAMATIC CLUB. Presents "The Importance of | Being Earnest" at the | [. Grand. | | At the Grand Opera House on { Wednesday evening the Queen's Dra- | matic Club presented their annual play, this year the production being | "The Importance of Being Earnest," | by Oscar Wilde. "Theatre night" Is | looked forward to with great inter- | est by the student body of the uni- | versity, and judging from the en-! thusiasm shown last evening, tho | production made a decided hit. This | play was first produced at St. James' | Theatre, London, on February 14th, 1895. It is a delightful comedy in three scenes, and the cast was weil balanced. J. D. Cash Mahafty, in the role of "John Worthing, (of the Manor House, Woolton, Hertfordshire)." was splendid. The mystery of. the play centred around Mr. Worta- ing, and although he found himself in quite a dilemna, the sky cleared and he was made quite happy in the end. "Algernon Moncrieff," "a friend of John Worthing," was played by Oscar F. Lundell, who handled his part in a capable man- ner, and incidentally was success- ful in winning the hand of "Cecily | Cardew," John Worthing's charming ward. Miss Lois Osborne filled the role of the ward to perfection, and | was very sweet and charming in- | deed. Miss Evelyn Wilson took the | part of "Lady Bracknell" in a most | creditable manner. The role of her | daughter, "Hon. Gwendoline Fair- | fax," was taken by Miss Gladys | Montgomery, who made a very win- | some little maid, and her acting was | all that could be desired. Miss Edna | Bailey, as 'Miss Prism, companii of Cecily Cardew,'" handled her part | splendidly, as did Mr.. J. Neil Mae- | Murchy, in the role of "Rev. Canon | Chasuble, D.D., rector of Woolton." | Auston F. Cross, as "Lane," Mr. Moncrieff's manservant, was good, while Paul Glasgow, "Butler to Mr. | Worthing," acted the part in an ex- | cellent manner. | The students made things lively before. the show commenced ana during the intermission by throwing | beans, peas, macaroni, flour and pepper. On a couple of occasions tae actors were showered with coppers. | The pictures of candidates run- | ning for Alma Mater positions were thrown on the curtain. The mem- | bers of Queen's senior rugby team | were the guests of the managemeat | of the Grand Opera House and the Queen's Dramatic Club. The plar- | ers occupied the front seats in the | orchestra. The "Importance of Being Earn- est" 'was presented in Kingston about twelve years.ago By the late Lawrence Irving, son of the late Sir Henry Irving. Lawrence Irving lost his life by the sinking of the steamer Empress of Ireland in the St. Lawrence, after making i's Canadian tour. The following Is the executive committee of the Queen's dramatic club: Hon. president, Prof. N. J. Sy- monds; president, J. D. Cash Ma- haffy; secretary, Oscar F. Lundell; producing director, Prof. C. A. Ashley; business manager, Harold Spencily; assistant business manag- er, F. Gerald Keyes. Letters to the Editor] Should Abolish Hazing. Toronto, Nov. 28.--(To the Edi- tor): The Queen's rugby team are to be congratulated on thelr victory last Saturday. It was well earned and without resorting to rough tac- tics, so much In evidence in some of the other teams. By the way, it is to be hoped that Queen's will be the next to fall in line to abolish hazing. It has noth- ing to recommend it, and can hardly be called sport, especially as thel freshmen are generally outnumbered six or more to one. Is that a square deal? Hazing has become so brutal in the various universities that it should be prohibited. This can be done by expelling the ringleaders for the term. Wishing the Queen's the best of luck next Saturday and best regards to Boo-Hoo. Yours truly, =A. CAMERON. Spats Overshoes Rubbers Now is the time to protect your health against Colds.

ABOUT MARKETING Hoping For a Change 80 They May Obtain a Bigger Return. The cheese makers and pairons of the factories in Frontenac county are looking for a vast chamge in the mar- keting of cheese in order thet they may obtain a bigger return from the industry. During the past season the maximum price paid came only at the end of the season, but it is claim- ed that had the industry been pro- perly organized on the co-operative basis, the maximum price would have been obtained throughout the entire season. "We have got to take up this mat- ter of a co-operative sales organisa- tion," said one prominent residemt of Pittsburg, to @ Whig representa- tive on Wednesday. "I fear that many farmers hesitate because of the fesl- ing that the whole thing is merely a political scheme. We have been victims of "Tom fqol political tricks' for so long that we hardly know sometimes what to do but although this has been so, I believe that we should judge this propcsal to pool the entire output of our oheese factories on its merits, and as a life-long pat- ron I am going to go into it and urge ali of m¥ associates to do the same. But on the question of politics T am going 20 be independent. It is this thing, politics, that has played havoe with the whole co-operative business, Nevertheless, co-operation in the farming industry has got to come as Two Cars Stove Size Particularly adapted for Hot Alr Furnaces and Quebec Heaters.

HORSE WALKED INTO STREET SEWER GRATE Call Sent to Auto Service Sta- tion and Animal Was Soon Rescued. 4 Quite a flutter of excitement was caused on Princess street about 8:20 o'clock on Wednesday evening, when a horse, owned by Nelson Northmore, slipped into a sewer grate opposite Best's drug store. Before the an- imal could be rescued a call had to be sent to Boyd's service station, and then it was not long before the animal was rescued by being "jack- ed up," the jack being placed under its stomach. It is stated that the horse had a very close call from having its front legs broken .It suffered some cuts about the legs.
