The Grand is offering its patrons & diversified and entertaining pro- gramme Wednesday, March 18th in the appearance here of the .Winter Garden Vanities, a revue company | headed by a pair of very amusing 'comedians in Mac Parker and Jimmy Taylor, assisted by a caste of cap- able principals and a lively chorus. The Vanities production is for tum purposes only. There are no prob- lems to worry over--just one htind- red and fifty minutes of comedy, music, dancing and vaudeville. Re- ferring to the production The Peter- boro Examiner says: 'Messrs. Parker and Taylor proved themselves to be a pair of hard- working comedians with a good line of chatter that draws many a laugh from the audience, in fact the "'cust- omers," as Raymond Hitchcock used to delight to call them, has a fiald night. The plot of course, was at- ténuated, but it served its purpose of providing plenty of opportunity for comedy, while musical numbers And, specialities were lavishly intro. duced. Bob Cook, the juvenile, sang well and was a big help to the com- edians. } 'Miss Flo Marsh did nicely in the soubrette . part and Miss Hamilton also scored. Clever acrobatic and contortionist specialties were intro- duced by P. Huff, while another big feature was the great trunk mystery, in which a young lady is tied in a sack with her hands tied be- hind Ler back, placed in a trunk that 1s securely fastened and in a few seconds re-appears béfore the audi- ence, while the trunk is found to contain the magician himself. The transformation was accomplished at mystifying speed. "There was a wealth of musical numbers, the most popular being "The Pal That I Loved" and the in- evitable "I. Wonder What Has Be- com. of Sally." i "The chorus, eight in number, did some sprightly dancing and their singing was above the average, "All in all the Winter Gadren Vanities offer a lively and eter- taining programme and should at- tract big crowds to the Grand, ELAINE HAMMERSTEIN. '| In Best Role of Career, "The Mig- night "When Nellie the Beautiful Cloak Model" was made into a moving pic- ture and released under its own title there were many people who gid that it would not take with thé pub- lic because if was such an old story and because everyone had seen it at some time or other. Yet it was a great success) "The Midnight Express" was in its day just as much a standby fér the stock companies and barnstormesrs as "Nejlie." In its original version it was full of the old time stage technique. In the film version with its' wider scope of action possibili- Hes. this trashy stage business has been eliminated. In its present state it is & story full of action and thrills of railroad life and with the ola love story just as strong and great- 1y enchanced by its modern setting. The outdoor parts also give much that the stage production could not even make an attempt to présent. Miss Hammerstein in the lead role brings with her thé result of het in. tensive training oy the stage as well 88 the accumulated experience many screen successes.

A meeting of the executive of the Kingston Hockey Club was held on Friday afternoon in the Board of Trade rooms for the purpose of clos- ing some of the business of the Club and making arrangements for clos- ing up the remainder. Another meeting will be held shortly. Did His Share. In connection with the Sunbury hockey club, which won the From- tenac County championship, it is not- €d that Mr. Bert Greenless, former manager of the team, has attended nearly every game that the team has played. It is unfortunate that he, after all his time and Work in pre- vious years in rounding out a hockey team, could not have shared in the team's well-earned honors, but it is agreed that his work was not in vain. His own duties forced him to retipe from the office of manager last year, much to the disappoint- ment of players and fans in the County League. Coming To Kingston. Five strong badminton teams ha been drawn together in the Ottaw Garrison Badminton League to de- ¢ide which team shall come to King- ston in April to play off for the championship of M.D. No. 3. CANADIENS WIN OUT. Defeated St. Patricks 2-0 In Toronto And Won Round 5-2. Canadiens defeated St. Patricks in Toronto on Friday night in the second game of the semi-finals be- tween these two teams, by the score of 2-0, winning the round by 5-2, a8 a result of their 8-2 wifi in Mon- treal. The victory was a big sur- prise to Toronto hockey fans, who expected their team to pull down the lead and win the round. The winners were slated.tv play Hamiil- ton Tigers, or, in the évént of the latter refusing to play, Ottawa Senators fof the 'N.H.L. champion- ship. Declares Canadiens Champions.

Pleading guilty in fice court on Saturday morning, charge of stealing three "pigs" of lead from Isaac Cohen, Thomas Cooling and Stuart Holland, young 'men, were each sentenced to two months in jail by Magistrate Farrell, Benjamin Burdoff, a second-hand dealer, pleaded guilty to a charge of buying the lead knowing it to have been stolen. He was fined $25 or one month, must return the stolen property, and Magistrate Farrell also informed the accused that he would make a recommendation to the board of police commissioners to have his license a a second-hand dealer, can- celled. The theft was committed on Feb. 25th. © The young men entered Co- hen's premises and made off with three "pigs" of lead, amounting to 270 pounds, and they afterwards dis- posed of it to Burdoff at five cents per pound. Magistrate Farrell gave Burdoff severe reprimand for having pur- chased the lead, stating that many of these cases of theft would not take place if the second hand men re- fused to purchase goods when it was known that the goods had been stol- en. The case was brought before the court as a result of good work on the part of Detective Thomas Mul- linger, who was given the matter to investigate. Detective Mullinger placed the young men under 'arrest on Friday afternoon and was instru- mental in having Burdoff summoned to the court. ----pniaseg SUNDAY BAND CONCERT To Be Given at the Capitol in Ald Of Unemployed.

Flowers bloomed, in spite of the cold wet rain, on one florist's wagon were some pots of real Irish shamrock, proving the story that "The Dear Little Shamrock of Ire- land" will not grow elsewhere than on "The Ould Sod" a fallacy. "The dainty little plants Were snapped up at once by Irish people who kmow the plant, famous in song and story when they see it. The ice is so unsafe that only a few islandérs were on the market and their place was taken by people from the coun- tryside who were glad of the shel- ter from the rain. Hggs were sell- ing at 36c and butter at 38c, A few chickens were displayed, selling for 76c and $1 apiece. Lettuce, radishes, rhubarb and green pars- ley gave a hint of spring, but the market was not large and the buy- ers comparatively few. CIVIL SERVICE BONUS TO GO. NOTES FROM WELLINGTON. Mrs. J. Y.

Marie beaver is practically an accomplish ed fact, The writer, during a two weeks' stay in the woods, heard everywhere of trappers making plans to abandon their usual beats. The indiscriminate slaughter of the beav- er of late years and the massacre that has followed the recent regula- tions of the Fish & Game Depart- ments have at length practically wiped out the animal in Algoma. The business which has given a good living to hundreds of men till re- cently has been practically wiped out. Last year Algoma sent a big depu- tation to Toronto and the facts plac- ed before Premier Drury so startled him that he promised en the instant to have a royal commission n- vestigate the situation. Algoma re- spected with its past knowledge of the Fish & Game Department that the cammission would be side track- ed, and the expectation was fulfilled. So many mysterious things happen when you deal with the Fish & Game Department that nothing could | surprise Algoma. ~ There is' a. widespread belief among the trappers in the district that the 'department is out of date and not what it should be. We refer to the permanent officials. To any« body who takes any interest in New Ontario the wanton destruction of the valuable beaver business comes as a most depressing event. Ap- parently, there is but one thing to do and that is that there should be at once a closed season for beaver if the last remnants of these are to be protected. The matter is not a trifling one. The Dominion Bureau of Statistics says that in the sea- son of 1922-23 there were 77,478 pelts taken in Ontario valued at $1,133,990. It will thus be seen that while the question is which affects Algoma and the Hud- son Bay territory, the province can- not afféord to ignore a business which even in a bad year produced $1.000.000 in wealth. We are firmly convinced that the immediate protection of the beaver by a five year closed season is a mat. ter of pressing moment. The Fish & Game Department by |{ts new wide open regulations now allows a free traffic in beaver killings. The department must reverse its proce- dure at one. Pleasant Valley News.
