Domino Lango, who was sentenc- ed at Ottawa to serve a term of three years in the Portsmouth peni- teutiary, and who completed . his sentence on Tuesday and was de- ported to the United States, will be re-arrested as soon as he crosses 'the American border at Niagara Falls, N.Y. Lango, whose real mame is Joseph Victor, has a bad record across tHe border having sérved time %t Sing Sing penitentiary, New York state, and the penitentiary at Philadelphia on .charges of forgery. Fd™about the first time in the history of the Portsmouth peniten- tiary, American parole officers came direct to Kingston for the purpose of making sure that they would get their man. Courtland Butler, chief parole officer, and Joseph F. Ursen- back, asistant parole_officer, Phila- delphia, arrived in the city on Mon- day and went out to the prison. These American officers will accom- pany the Canadian deportation offi- cer, who will have charge of the released convict until he reaches the American border and then he will be handed over to them. The offi- cers were taking no chances of their man making his escape, and had him well handcuffed and chains on his feet, The American officers, when gpeaking to a representative of the Whig at the Frontenac hotel on Tuesday morning, stated that the convict was sentenced to sefve a term in the penitentiary at Phila- delphia and had been released on pa- role. He evidently made his way to Ottawa, where he committed for. gery, and was given three years in the Portsmouth institution. Victor had still oné year to serye in the prison across,the border, and will have .to put if his time. While serving a sentence at the Sing Sing prison, he was released on parole but soon fell in the hands of the police on the charge of for- gery and wag returned to that pri- son before he served time at Phila- delphia. The two American parole officers stated that this was their first visit to Kingston and they were pleased with the appearance of the city. On Monday evening they attended the Kingston-Bellevilla hockey ~ match and on Tuesday morning were shown through the city hall. They took a number of photographs of buildings around the eity. Claims the Team Bought for the Fire Department Are . Unsound. : > ® At the meeting of the 'city coun- ¢il on Monday night, Ald. George Boyd criticized a subcommittee of the fire and light committed, over the recent purchase of a team of | pores for the fire department. He held that the team purchased were not sound animals, and that they should not have been purchased. Ald. Boyd said that he considered it a "crime" for the committee to have made the deal. Ald. Holder,' who was chairman of the committee that 'purchased the team stated that the committee sel- ected a team and then had Dr. Wil- liam Nicholls, V.8., make the eéxami- nation of the horses, and that Dr. Nicholls had given a certificate pro- nouncing the horses O.K. Ald. Hol- der had Dr. Sands read Dr. Nicholls' certificate. Ald. Boyd stated that he had $500 to say that the horses were unsound. Ald. Holder said he did not thing Aide-R0v8 should make such a rash statement. "And I de not want his money," he. added. "But you are welcome to it," said Ald. Boyd. AM. Holder sald he considered the team suitable for heavy draw- ing. Ald. Boyd wanted to know what ing at another team, "Move a vote of censure then, if you do not think it was right," sug- gested Mayor Angrove. Ald. O'Connor said the fire and light committee had advertized for horses to be brought to the market square, and claimed that Aldi Boyd had headed off a good many horses that might have been brought to the city, by advocating the purchase of a certain team out in the country. Ald. O'Connor said he believed in standing by the advertisement put in the newspapers, Following the examination of horseg'offered on the market square he would be willing to consider othe He took the stand that he would not go outside of the city to inspect any horses, and spoke of an inspection members of the committee made of 4 team on a Sunday. Ald. Chown and Chief Armstrong he'said, got uneasy over a team following a snow storm, and he had afterwards given his consent to the purchase of a team. If Dr. Nicholls had given his OK, to the team, he could not see g4y reason why the team should be turned down. _Ald. Chown stated that evidently there had been three different opinions in regard to the purchase of the team, Dr. Nicholls had never failed 'the committee in any of his gelections, and he did not see why there should Be any question raised. He thought the matter should be dropped. Ald. Reid said the team had been paid for and there was nothing furs ther to be done. At this stage the matter was dropped and the members of coun- cil proceeded with other business. A Canadian me.

An excellent address on "The Renaissan¢e Theatre" was contri buted by Prof. J. F. Macdonald to the series on the Renaissance on 'Monday afternoon in Convocation Hall. The speaker described the wealth of drama in England's past upon which the Renaissance period had to draw, the morality and the trade guild plays, the folk drama and the classical plays. Reépresenta- tive plays of the ne wera, the Eliza- pbethan stage with it continuous performance, its platform approach- ing the centre of its audience and the finest staging in Europe, were taken up by the lecturer. It was the great period of English drama, he said. "One reason for this was that it was fostered by the court. Not till Edward VII's reign did royal patropage -again favor the, theatre.
