AMUSEMENTS - What the Press Agents Say About Coming Attractions AT THE GRAND. Julia Arthur Is Here To-night in * Saint Joan." Much is expected of this wonder- ful production of "Saint Joan," which appears at the Grand Opera House to-night, and the audience will not be disappointed. The Shaw play is not a tragedy, not a comedy, not a travesty, not rigid history, but a little of all,-and told in modern English, even to accent and slang, of the twentieth century. In even the mouth of the heroine are placed not only thrilling passages of inspir- ed pathos, but occasional witty sal- lies and withering sarcasm. She gets the better of her enemies with the tongue of a woman in -face-to- face meeting, as well as with the sword of the soldier on the fleld of battle. Audiences are aroused to a state of exaltation equal to that with which the Maid his inspired the sol- diers of France, and they are forced into laughter at some biting ridicule or happy saying. As usual, Shaw makes fun of his audience to its face with his wonted audacity. Bertram C. Whitney is deserving of great credit in presenting such a fine production in every particular. Miss Julia Arthur is an ideal "Joan" and triumphs in the role. The mien of the cast are splendidly fitted for the difficult holes, notably Edwin Mordante, .virili impersonation of the Bishop of Bauvals; Lowdon Adams as the inquisitor; George Fitzgerald as the Archbishop of Rheoimes; Erskin Sanford as the ten- der-hearted monk, Brother Martin; Albert Barrett, as Dunofs; and John McGovern as the Dauphin; not forgetting the artistic portrayals of Lynn Pratt as the Earle of War- wick and Henry Buckler as De Sto- gumber. - "OUR BETTY." "Squibs' Honeymoon" Will Open at the Capitol Thursday. It is something to be proud of that the record for repeated encores for a film character has béen achieved by a British film artist--Betty Bal- four. The puklic has clamoured for her ""Squibs' so loudly and so often that no less than four full-sized fea- ture adventures have now been pro- duced by Mr. George Pearson. Of course, everybody remembers the first "Squibs," which was followed by "Squibs Wins the Calcutta Sweep," and "Squibs, M.P." Now with "Squibs' Honeymoén" which opens a three day engagement at the Capitol theatre to-morrow, Betty Balfour finishes the adven- tures of the famous character, and in this picture Squibs makes her log- ical farewell to the public before go- ug into' & well-earned retirement on the threshold of strictly private bliss. Betty confesses she is a wee bit tired of playing "'Squibs,'" which is not to be wondered at, seeing that she has practically lived in the char acter for the past two years. But she has created during that period a lovable Cockney figure that has en- throned itself in all hearts and be- come world-famous. The art of One might believe that she really is an elf but for the fact that at times she can be the very spirit of tragedy. Perhaps what has made her more popular than anything else, however, is that most often she appears as the spirit of vivacity and vitality, yet never lacking in winsomeness and whimsi- ality, and with queer ways which perhaps only appear so queer be- cause the virtue of unselfishness is 80 uncommon. Whatever it is, Betty is our pride and joy. 8he is British, and her art is British. 8he is our Betty, "Britain's Queen of Happi- fess." The story: : Squibs, having relinquished the m t of the Squibs Milk Co., Ltd, to Fitsbulge, Father and Honeybunn, applied herself to the business of getting. married to Charlie Lee. The latter started re- hearsals of the wedding ceremony with Honeybunn as the bride and Father as the parson. Came the wedding eve, and the conjunction of Bquids' desire for a last 'hectic night of spinsterhood and Father's an- xiely to learns "Yes, We Have No Bananas' had very funny results. The wedding morning was a4 hofror of hustle to all except the bride, but the best man was the least of all inter. ested In the elusivemess of the risg and' other items for the necessary shed, | complete equipment of a bashful bridegroom.

EEE ana Church Union Voting. Toronto, April 22.--Threre were only three returns received yester- day on the voting by Presbyterian congregations on the church union question. One congregation voted for unfon and two voted against. A ré- port from Knox Church, St. Vincent, Ont., showed 18 members had voted for union and that 9 had non- concurred. A strong majority against church union was reported by the congregation at Kirkwell, Ont. in the Hamilton Preshyt8ry, where 59 members voted against union and 11 voted in favor of it. Sunny Bray and 8t. Paul's Pictou, N.S., voted. For union, 42; against, 138. Ship Goes Aground.

The ship has taken in a considerable volume of water as a result of coming in con- tact with the rocks at St. Antoine, and her cargo is utterly ruined. Barial of Bishop Clark.

It was announced on Wednesday morning that it was expected that during the day a number of players would be signed for Kingston's team in the C.0.B.L. It is understood that the executive is very anxious to secure the services of a number of Queen's students, who have been recommended as be- ing first-class baseball players. The students will be leaving the city in the course of a couple of days, and for that reason the execu- tive is very anxious that they de- cide whether they will remain in the city and play ball this summer. The great trouble which the execu- tive meets with from time to time, is to secure positions for the students who would like to remain in the city. Met At Napanee, At a meeting of the executive of the Lennox and Addington Baseball League, held in Napanee on Tuesday evening, it was decided to join the Ontario Amateur Baseball Associa- tion. ' It is expected that the league will be composéd of fout or five teams. The teams that will likely forne the league are Odessa, Adolphustown, Gibbard's, Newburgh and Tamworth. If four teams enter, there will be a double schedule, but only a single one if five teams decide to join. The matter of arranging the schedule was left to the president and secretary, and will be announced in the course of a week or ten days. Member Away Back. In looking up some old records at the Athletic Boafd of Control on Wednesday morning it was noticed that Mr. A. J. Meiklejohn was a member of the university athletic committee during the years 1897-98. Apparently Mr. Meiklepohn gave sat- isfaction for he was this year ap- pointed again to the athletic board of control. "Liz Walker May Catch. There is every likelihood that "Liz" Walker, the famous tackler of the Queen's Dominion Championship team of two years ago, will be given a chance to catch for the Kingston C.0.B.L. team. Walker has not been playing ball for the last two or three years but before that he was one of the most useful men in the Hamir ton City League. He led the league as batter and was considered a good catcher, although his regular berth was in the outfield. Intercollegiate Golf Talk. 'With the opening of the golf sea- son there is renewed talk of arrang- ing intercollegiate golf matches. The subject was discussed pretty thor- oughly a year or two ago and was held up on the customary financial grounds. Golf lacks that spectacular quality which seems to bé rather necessary to intercollegiate athletics. But though the athletic board re- fused to sanction intercollegiate goit the desire for it is still felt. There is a possibility that certain enthusi- asts may pay their own way and hold interesting, if unofficial, matches in combination with Varsity and Me- Gill, In this connection the question is being mooted of arranging matches between members of the staffs of the universities. There are some doughty club swingers among the Queen professors who would enjoy testin their skill against that ef the peda- gogues from the big colleges east and west.
