BRECK & HALLIDAY, {SOLE AGENTS. the re KING'S FIRST COURT Was Onc of Great Surpassing Brilliance AT BUCKINCEAM PALACE A CANADIAN GIRL PRESENTED To ROYALTY. Few Changes in The King's First Court--It Surpassed All The Victorian Drawing Rooms-- The Supper Was an In- novation, London, Mareh 15--The scene at the king's first court at Buckingham palage last night, is spoken of by to day's newspapers as ome of surpass ing brilliance. Never before had the king looked so kingly, his breast blazing with orders and. stars. The queen wore a golden yellow dress ems broidered in gold, Her Jewels were pearls and a-daifnty crown of dia- mons, "Miss Twining, a Canadian girl, pre sented by lady Strathcona, was attir ed in a lovely deess of Limerick lace There were fewer changes in thekipg's first court than busy bodies in oy Journgls. had predicted. Tt was an evening instead. of an afternoon draw ing room. As the king and queen stood by - themselves, only two courtesies were required, the other royalties be hind them fot being raluted. Pregegtations were made in the ball roam teat of the throne room, where the work of the decorations has not vet been completed. The ball room: has been redecorated, and is a tnuch more stately and convenient room for great functions 'than the throne room. Andther innovation was supper with hock eup, champagne, hot bouillon, cold meats. and ice. The court was more brilliant than the Victorian drawing rooms owing to the change of hour and the electric lighting of the palace. Tt was a large court, too, to which eyery. one present had been sper vinlly invited, LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. The Licensing Of Butchers. Kingston, March 15.~(To the Eai- tor): '1 would like, through your valuable paper, to call the attention of the workingmen's association of the city to the recommendation, in the finance committee's report, to increase the license fee, to fresh meat, from $2 to 80. If such were done all the small dealers would have to close up' and the business would be thrown into the hands of a few large dealers, which would mean an increase in the price of that which is a staple article On every poor man's table. In these hard times the necessaries of life should be made as cheap as possible, especially meat. No burden copes tax, such as a licumse jee of $50 should be imposed upon the sale of such am article of diet, The power %o impose a feense for the sale of fresh meat was never intended for revenue purposts; but merely to regulate and control the business; and a $1 charge would be as efficient, for that pur pose, ax a 230 one, No monopoly in the necessaries of lifo, should be the motto 'of every fviend of the poor man ANTI MONOPOLY. sell -------- Extradition Proceedings.

The only eontroversy in the case was whether or not the defendant's father had given the son permission to use his (the father's) name in_ the note, There was not sufficient evidence that Waiter 8.
