Por NEW CANDIDATES - FOR CITY CODNCIL Report That "New Blood" Will Be Offered For Civic Honors. ' Although the municipal elections will not take place for four months, there is already a good deal of talk and discussion going the rounds about the council, and there is a persistent rumor that there wiil be "new blood" offered for civic honors, and that the candidates wiH be well-known business men. No names have been mentioned, but from the gossip it looks as if there will be a great deal of activity when the time comes for the election of a council, 'SPLENDID MOTION PICTURE AT GRAND "The Man 'They Could Not Hang" Feature To-day And Wednesday. ; ------ '"The' day of miracles has not passed" sald people when the gal- lows three times failed to hang John Lee, convicted on circum- stantial evidence of the murder of {Miss Keyes at Abbotskerswell, near Torquay, England. When the second attempt had been made two bags of sand of the same weight as thé prisoner were placed onthe drop, when it worked successfully. Yet it failed to drop when Lee was placed on it immediately afterwards. The strange incident resulted in the commuting of the death sentence to lite imprisonment and Lee served twenty-three years at hard labor.

Lee is still living, happily married to the: girl who, walted twenty-three years for him. There was a good crowd at tha Grand' Opera House Monday night when the picture ff this notable event in England's history of crimes was shown. It should be mentioned that this is the first Australian pic~ ture shown in Canada. Lee's story of the crime, now on sale in King- ston bookstores, has been faithfully followed. Though it surrounds a murder and a hanging, there is nothing gruesome or repulsive in the picture, but there are a touching narrative of parents' devotion, a pretty love' story of a boyhood sweetheart whose faith in Lee never wavered, touches of humor here and there, all set in the midst of beauti- ful land and ocean scenery, The picture is much aided by Miss Doreen Thompson, who sings i | vocal items in connection with the picture, and by W.

Kingston; Sept." 22.-- (To the Bdi- tor): I trust that you will not con- sider that I am imposing upon you, by requesting that the following Jet- ter "be published, thereby enabling myself and the members ol the Kingston pageant committee to con- vey in as public a manner as pos- elble our sincere thanks to those gentlemen who, by lending their names as patrons to the Kingston pa- geant, immediately placed upon it the necessary "cachet." The commit-' tee also tenders its very best thanks to those ladies and gentlemen who so willing and cheerfully gave of their time, talents and energy to the public, 'for the sole purpose of por- traying for the benefit and instruc- tion of us all the pageant which the public quite justly crowned with suc- cess. . The historical scenes were so rea- listic and correctly carried out that it would be impossible to differenti- ate between them, as regards quali- ty. Britannia, Canada, Kingston and the provinces formed a handsome group, that well exemplify our mag- nificent empire, our beautiful coun- try and our charming and alluring city. * The Bpirit of the Wilderness was 80 light that she seemed to be treading on air, and the young dan- cers who surrounded her were good to look at and did themselves credit. The Kingston Sea Cadet Corps did itself proud, and had the signal ho- nor of being called upon by Canada to furnigh her with train bearers, thus sharing that honor with her re- gularly appointed pages. The troops looked most business- like, and at once fanned into flame those sparks of enthusiasm and pat- riotism which are to be found in all "stout hearts." To the Kingston press we tender our very best thanks for its generous support and for having emphasized the fact, alag too often forgotten, that the past is full of valuable les- sons or the future. To the young ladies in training at the Kingston General hospital, we offer our best thanks to the accompaniment of a low bow. 'To Miss Mollie Cart- wright and Miss A. M. Going, we doff our hats and say, you are "inm- defatigable and most capable." To the" gentlemen cadets, who so well carried out the '""water scene' of the Frontenac episode, we cannot pay you a better compliment than by say- ing, the Royal Military Collage al- ways does things, "as," 16 dernier eri de la perfection." The Indians and their chiefs looked like the "real thing," and many a maiden sighed, I fancy, for the warmth of the wigwam, to those gentlemen of the wilds we say "How-How, but from their pretty squaws we crave a "Dow Waw." Mrs. Simcoe was enticliig, garhéd 'as she was, in the Gorrect fashion of her period. To the braw pipers and the pretiy Nlas- sles we touch our tam-o-shanters, To the manager and directors of the Kingston Industrial Exhibition, who made it possible to produce the pa- geant, we would say: "Gentlemen, continue in your public spirited en- deavors and keep the fire of enthu- siasm burning. If you do, it may spread." - To Messrs. Miles and Sea- bold we are justly indebted for thelr vnflagging interest and endless trou- ble, which they took in assisting and trajning our performers. Our thanks are dlso due to the "pessimist," for having once again proved himself wrong in his various forecasts. Yours very sincerely, i ---J. N. 8. LEEBLIE.
