The commit- tee also decided to allow Mrs. Camp- bell the free use of the house at the fair grounds until May 1st. Ald. Nash asked for the free use of Ontario hall to hold a meeting for the organization of a Ratepayers' Association and the committee will ask for a properly signed petition from ratepayers before 'dealing with the request. Ald. Craig moved an ili amendment to this effect; after Ald. i Nash had moved to grant the re- ll} quest which hé stated came from il ratepayers, It was reported that a radiator had li| been placed in the basement at the offices of the liquor vendor in the city buildings, and that the heating was not reported to be satisfactory. On the recommendation of Chair- man Laturney and the city engineer, Hf| the old stone house on the Murdock farm will be boarded up and notice li! given to the effect that trespassers I on 'the property will be prosecuted. The chairman stated that it would not be wise to dispose of the house as it could be used in case the city || secured an industry there. The chairman, Ald. Laturney, pre- f sided, and the other members were il Alds. Joyce, Nash, John Fife, John- ll| ston, Craig and McCartney. -------- The Profits in Tea Growing. The price of good quality tea has ll risen in the last two years between {| 20c and 25c¢ per pound. {| mand which has Been phenomenal The de- has sustained this increase and the fortunate owners of tea plantations Hl] have earned dividends in some cases of from 60 per cent. to 100 per cent. All those engaged in selling the commodity---who have not been mak- ing any more profit--have been hep- ing for over-production. This is in- evitable when such profits are being made and prices will then fall. But tea is still getting dearer, and no one can foretell just when the drop will come----whether in one year o¢ long- ef. It ¢gmay come when least ex- pected, "Y's" MEN'S CLUB.

SPLENDID STOCK COMPANY AT GRAND May Edwards Players Appear Before Large Audience-- Performance Excellent. On all sides to-day was heard the wards Players last night at' the Grand Opera House?" Certaluly those Who did not missed a great treat, With a silence since Christ- mas, with one or two exceptions. the Grand is coming back strong, and this week it has something really fine to offer its patrons. Miss Edwards 18 a charming and talented actress, and is supported by a cast of capable performers. To be In Kingston is to Miss Edwards some- | thing like coming back home, as she was born at Lindsay, and this is the first time she has played in Ontario with her own show. The play last evening, "Adam and Eva," was intensely interesting, be- sides carrying a laugh along with it. It showed just what an indolent, grasping family of a rich New York business man could accomplish In the way of earning a living for themselves, when they "were put to it." And to the father, who was tir- ed of paying bills for His family, and left them for three months to visit his rubber" plantation, was proven the fact that it was pretty nice to have a family after all, Arthur Hebert, who played the part of "'fa- ther," was splendid, and the other members of the cast filled their parts exceedingly well, And that's not the half of it. Besides the play, Miss Edwards has to offer her audiences an excellent Novelty Orchestra, which makes wonderful musie. This inetudes the Three Syncopaters, with Valmora Sniith on the drums. These taient- ed musiclans give a splendid pro- gramme between the acts. It is a long time since a ventriio- quist has been in Kingston, and Mr. Jack Farr, who is with the Mae Pd- wards Players, is a very clever one. This is something the children would enjoy. ¥ Mr. Chas. T. Smith, when thank- ing the audience for their patron- age, announced that the company would be at the Grand for the bal- ance of the week, and would pre- sént a completes change of pro- gramme nightly. Oh Tuesday even- ing it will offer "The Gutter pipe," a three.att edmedy drama, which is sure to please all,' There will be two matiness during the week, one on Wednesday afternoon, and one on Saturday afternoon. The ddmpauy is sure to draw full houses all week, -------- STORY OF THE POLICE COURT.
