A FURNITURE, CARPETS, CURTAINS, LINOLEUMS [THE KIWANIS DEBATE Decision Postponed for a Week--The Attendance Is Reported Better. ---- The 'Kiwanis Club's attendance figires are showing improvement these days, no doubt as a result of the snappy meetings and excellent programmes. Monday's noon meet- ing was one of the best. A few min- utes weré courteously given Rotar- fan A. N. Lyster, manager of the Bank of Nova Scotia, and chairman of the Kingston public.library board, to set forth before the members the alms and needs'of the local library. He stated that the present floor space was wholly inadequate, especially in view of the fact that the circulation had increased. in one year from 80,- 000 volumes to 185,000. His short address was warmly applauded and the matter will be considered by the executive. Steacy, Steacy's Limited, was the booster and the chairman of 'the commniittee, Ernie Smitliles, Cap!i- .| tol theatre, ran the event off snap- pily. [Earl Martin, Harry Sargent, | Columbus Hanley and James Halll- day were the lucky winners. - The long- -sought debate of the members held the floor for most of the meeting. Columbus Hanley pre- sented the entire affirmative side and Wendling Anglin and Jack Newlands upheld the megative. Each speaker was warmly applauded. The subject was "Resolved that spccess in busi- | ness depends more on the individual than on. trade conditions or other circumstances." The judges, Frank Day, Ambrose Shea and W. M. Nickle, will announce their decision | next week. Harry Wilder prevented an excep- tionally fine report.on the meeting in Toronto with regards to the estab- lHshment of a boys' home at Bow- manville, Ont. He gave full detalls and outlined the work expected of Kiwanis in connection with it. The matter will be taken up at the next meeting. President Billy Mills announced that attendance figures for January averaged 51.8, for February 58.6, for March 60.4, and asked for an'attend- ance of seventy for April. The roll call was speedy and live- ly, and the singing greater in volume than it has bes in some time. Guests were--Col. Aikins, Winnipeg; L. C. Lockett, Kingston; G. C. McLean, Brockville; F.

A LETTERS To The Editor Restore Watering Kingston, April 1.--(To the Edi- tor): Will you allow me a small space in your valuable paper, regard- ing the drinking trough that used to be on, thé market square ? It has been obser(ed' by many that since the removal of the horsd and dog trough from the square, since the paving of that section, the a. 2nce of this trough-has caused a great inconvenience not only to the farmers, who are accustomed to bring their horses to the market so loften, but to.a very 'large number of horse owners who have hitherto enjoyed the convenience of water- ing their horses at{this most central | place. "A With the imminant arfival of the hot weather it would be regrettable to think that the present inconveni- ente of having no watering trough at the. markgt square shoulg be con- tinued: On behalf of the Kingston Hu- mane Society, and in the interest of hundreds of farmers and teamsters| who have been deprived of this con- venience, and also in the interest of the dumb animals which ate the ones | more directly concerned, I would like to point out to the city council that | an early replacement of this water- | ing trough would be a great asset to | the city. Yours truly, --ROBERT E. WARD, Inspector Kingston Humane Socitty. i ANOTHER MURDER TRIAL IN ESKIMO COUNTRY Judge Dubuc WIll Make the | Long Trip to Mete Justice, 9 ---- Edmonton, Alta, April l.--An- other trial of Arctic coast natives will take place in the far north this coming summer, and, as previously Judge Dubuc will make the long trip via the river steamer to carry justice of the white man _to the Eskimo peoples, , The native in this. instance--as last year--is accused of murder and he has been in the hinds of mounted police for more than a year. He was taken by. boat last season from the Royal Cadadian Mounted Police post on Coronation Gulf to Herschel Is- land to be tried. But owing to the little vessel being held mp in the ice, the island was reached too late for The Arial of the prisoners, as by that timp Alikomiak and Tatamagama- been sentenced to death and Judge Dubuc had left for the '"'out- side." Since that time the Eskimo has been held by the guardians of the North at Herschel Island, await- i ing justice. It is undérstood that the trial this year will take place at Aklavik (at the mouth of the McKenzie river) in- stead of at Herschel Island. This arrangement is made necessary due to the uncertainty of travel In "the Arctic Ocean, but with the prisoner at Aklavik, the judicial party will be carried right 'to the scene of the trial, by the riyer steamer; and will lose far less time than if it were necessary to proceed to Herschel Te land, As inthe former case the trial this year will-be along the identical lines. of British justice and fair play, which means the same whether in. the Arctics or"the tropics. Judge Dubuc wil be provided with an escort of mounted Police from Ed- monton. 'The accused native will be defended by a/prominent lawyer and the same priviledges will be avail- able for the prisoner as if he were facing the judge and jury in Edmon- ton, ------------ MOTHER TURNS UP * AT MURDER TRIAL She Engages Defence for Boy Whom &he Abandoned as Baby.
