THE AMUSEMENTS EE ------------------ --------------------t. the Press Say About What Agents "THE GONDOLIERS" ALWAYS A GREAT SUCCESS Why are we all going to hear "The Gondollers?" Mecause it has something for every man and wo- man. It will appeal to the business man, who has a laugh in his heart and is old fashioned enough to love real melodies and who wants to see a play with action. The Gondoliers will make him laugh and next day the music he heard will linger in his mind. Bome men will come back STRAND ANNA Q. NILSSON and HOWARD BOSWORTH Quer Universi CHARLES G. D.

Lawyers will come and doc- tors will find time to be there be- cause the music of the opera will make them fee! young. The story sparkles with humor and mirth. It bas a Hit fn its harmonies which es one forget everything in the world but the actors and the music which rises and falls at the mowe- ment of the director. We are all alike. We all love to hear bird-like J |soprano trills which quiver with 4 [human feeling. We like sweet con- 4 | tralto airs and every man or woman § | finds joy in the fundamental qual- ties of satisfying tenors and bari- tones. In short we are all going to like "The Gondoliers" because it is an opera created by composers known wherever the world language of mu- sic is understood. It has music at its best and the human interest of dramatic movement. . For a back- ground; Old Venice in her gdlden days.

An international crook steals some valu- able fortification plans from his son, a naval lieutenant. It means prison for the young fellow and disgrace to the Butterworth family name if the papers are not recovered within forty-eight hours. - Chumley, in love with Bleanor Butterworth (Viola Dana), sets about the solution of the mystery and his "detecting" lands him in from which he manages to extricate himself in a most amusing manner. You'll get a big laugh out of the scenes where the horse he is riding sits down on the edge of a fountain and sends Chumley sliding into a fountain. You'll laugh still harder at Chumiey's antics with a clever little dog in the production which is forever revealing his hiding place to his pursuers. And you'll laugh your head off at the flual scenes which find Chumley 'and Bieanor "safe" on a navy target, far out in the ocean being fired upon by the guns of the Pacific fleet at target practice Here's another great comedy hit by the screen's sole directorial "team" --Iribe and Urson, who made "Changing Husbands." You'll like "Lord Chumley." LAST TIME TO-DAY. It will 'be no surprise to the many admirers of Hobart Bosworth to find that sterling actor in a familiay type of role in "If I Marry Again," feature at the Strand Theatre for the last time to-day. Bosworth has come to be renowned for his char- acterization of the stern father, and in| the picture he has a dramatic role of a father who practically con- demns his own son to death in the tropics rather than admit to his ancient and esteemed family the daughter of a notorious woman.' His fellow members of the cast in this picture include such famous personalities as Doris Kenyon, Lloyd Hughes, Frank Mayo, Anna Q. Nilsson, Hobart Bosworth and Myrtle Stedman.

A very important transaction in racing circles took place here Tues- day morning when Don Curtis, of Kingston, owner of tne well-known mare, Sister Sue, sold her to a group of Montreal mea for the sum of $1,600.

The horse is eligible for the 20 pace. The mare, Myrtle R., owned by 'Mr. Hank Cochrane, has been sold in Watertown also. INDOOR BASEBALL. Signals Defeated No. 8 Heavy Bat- tery in First Final.

The plaintitt asked for compensation for damage to his automobile which he claimed was caused by negligence on the part of the defendant in allowing a cow to wander on the provincial high- way. The defendant entered a counter claim for damages to the cow which he was caused by Dr. Dargavel run- ning over the animal. The judge, after hearing the evidence in the counter claim, dismissed the action. According to the 'evidence of the plaintiff, the cow was wandering on the highway and as much. as he tried to escape the animal, the auto and the car collided. The defendant - contended that there was no -negligence on his part, as the cow had been placed in his own field and the fleld was in good condition. He claimed that the cow got on the provincial highway by getting over his neighbor's fence. J. M. Hickey, of the firm of Rig- ney & Hickey, acted for the plaintiff, and W. M, Nickle appeared on be- half of Wilson Franklin. A large number of Joyceville peo- ple were on hand for the case. RETURNS FROM CONVENTION. -- Mr. A.'N.
