The tax payers of the township] are well pleased over the fact that qe Whig was given all the details available regarding -the reported shortage in the funds of the town- ship. I PRESENTS - TWO PLAYS The 8t. James Dramatic Club Scores a Success on Friday Evening. A large and enthusiastic audience tilled St. James' hall on Thursday when the very excellent Dramatic Club of the parish presented two short plays with a finish which places the actors far above the rank of beginners. The costumes and staging were also good and the whole performance enjoyable. The farce, "Snooks versus Foozle," was most amusing and the sad case of Mr. Snooks, who fails to find. a wife to suit him among the ladies manager of a matrimonial 'bureau, and sues him for the $5 he paid down, was admirably presented by the 'lady lawyers. Those filling the various parts were Miss Bureau, Mrs. F. Partridge, Mrs. T. W. Sav- ary, Miss I. 'McCormack, Mr. W. J. Keeley and Mr. H. Parker, Mr. Sid- ney Smith, Mr. Albert Stroud, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Dalby, Mrs. L. A. Foster, Mrs. H. Horton, Miss May Sharpe, Miss Marjorie Holland, Mrs. H. Parker, Miss Gladys Arniel, Miss Alma Graham, Miss Edna Dawson, Mrs. J. Sharpe, Miss Mackenzie and the widow's children, Misses Edith Andrews, Marjorie Ferrie, Violet Horton, Edith Sharpe, Betty Stroud and Max Stroud, Donald McCaig Kenneth Foster, Sol Bernstien and Graham Horton. The second play was 'The Heiress of Glendon Hall," with Mrs. T. W. Savary in the leading role of "Viv- fen," and splendidly she took her part. Mrs. Foster was "Granny" and Miss Bureau "Miss Prim," the schoolmistress tormented by a merry lot of school girls, every one of whom took their part splendidly, were all excellent. Miss Dorid Smith as "Kit," Miss Marjorie Holland as "Charlie," Mrs. N. Robinson in the part of "Sylvia," who turns out to be the lost heiress, and Miss Gladys Arniel as "Flora were all good and made lots of fun. The witch who foretold evil days and yet brought everything out right in the end, was Mrs, F. Partridge. Miss Edna Daw- son was the aunt and Miss Irene Mc- Cormack 'Mrs. Wentworth."

Porter, driver for Burns' the bakef, was presented with a cheque for $25 by the department of justice for his act in notifying the officials at the Portsmouth peni- | tentiary that he saw a convict at large. About one month ago when Mr. Porter was on the road between Kingston and Cataraqui, he noticed a convict escaping from the prison gang which was working on the farm. He notified the prison of- ficials and the convict was later. lo cated at Cataraqui and returned to the institution. ------------ A Great Bargain.

The hundreds of thou- sands of dollars which leave this city every year are one of the biggest | knocks and one of .the biggest draw- | backs known of. It is all very well | to read the pretty catalogues, ad™ mire the picture galleries and take | in all that is said about quality and cheapness, etc. But how many will admit that when they received the ordered article it was according to the representation in the catalogue? Many of these same people are re- ceiving the means of their susten- ance either directly ' or indirectly through the local merchants. Are these merchants not entitled to their support? . It might be well to bear in mind also that money once spept outside the city rarely comes back to ft. These mail-order houses contribute nothing towards the upkeep of our educational institutions, nor is the city benefited in any way by the huge expenditure by its citizens in outside- mail order houses. To prove conclusively that they carry the best and most up-to-date drygoods in all lines, the well-known N Steacy firm, Princess street, is putt- ing on a mail order comparison sale, which will begin on Saturday, May 3rd, and'continue through the whole of next week. The upper floor of the Steacy store has as complete a line of ready-to-wear and millinery as can be found anywhere, while the general drygoods and dress apes, sories on the main floor leave' mo room for complaint. The basement contain everything necessary in housefurnishings, such as rugs, lino- leums, floor oils, 'ete. All these goods are to be marked down to a bawgain sale basis, and attractively disptal on the counters through- out the Steacy store. Those who come in from the country for the sale will have their fare remitted to them. Just drop into, this splendid store and compare the values openly displayed with those of the flaunt- ing mail-order house catalogue. Every Kingston business firm'is de- serving of the citizens' heartiest sup- ETN: Late Mrs, William Cannem. Mrs. William Canném, one-of Kingston's oldest and most respected residents, passed away Friday mor- ning, at her son's residence, 69 Ba- got - street. Deceased, who was eighty-six years of age, had been {ll for the past year. She was widow of the late William Cannem "who died six "years ago. Those, who mourn, are two sons and two daugh- ters, Mrs, A. G. Turner, Ottawa; Mrs, Fred Hardwick, Albert Cannem, Guelph; and Walter Cannem, King- ston. The funeral, which is in charge of the James Reid firm, will take place on Monday afternoon, to Cata- raqui cemetery, Rev. F. Sanders, of Calvary Congregational church, cfficiating. rooreiiL STATUES. ee ~~ Presented to Queen's pions For Their Good Wo! Some time ago the Athletic Board of Control, the Alma Mater Society and Queen's University boards joint- ly contributed towards presenting the players of the victorious Queen's rugby team; with a remembrance for their good work. This took the form of a little bronze statue mounted on a wooden stand about thirteen inches high. On a small plate on the stand of the statue is engraved the name ofeach player with the number of games played. The work was done through the Smith brothers, jewel- ers, King street, by Miss Merrill, Toronto. The statue represents a football player in the action of kicking the ball for a goal. These appropriate gifts were presented recently to the FRIDAY, MAY 2, rugby players. Another Orange Sale.
