John Van Arnam’s C l e v e r Company Given Enthusiastic Reception At Prince Edward Last Even- ing.

i1.

At the Prince Edward Theatre last night John R. Van Arnamls Minstrels presented their show “A Venetian Sunset," ‘before a capacity house. The entire production was under the personal supervision of Mr. John R. Van Amam.

A fast moving performance, fill- ed with laughter drawing chat- ter, wooden shoe dancing, a chorus in perfect harmony which support- ed the individual specialists. Negro mlnstrel shows have always had a charm peculiar to themselves and John R. Van Arnam caught the charm when he secured Billy Hen- derson, Micky Arnold, Vandry (Turk) McBee, Jr., Nicodemus Glynn and Jimmy Leary for his show. The show opens with an overture, followed by solos, chorus- ea and witty talk. The clever jug- gling of Harry mToy was greeted with the tremendous applause it de- served. Just wait till you see Gene Gerald as the Creole Crooner and as Miss Eva Gangway the prime donna. His make up, characteriza- tion and perfect acting were warm- ly applauded. Turk McBoe Jr. gave a. presentation of the latest sema- tioh on the Xylyphone and when the Orand Finale was concluded the audience felt they had passed a. worth while evening. The whole cast is supported by an excellent orchestra. -

will repeat their performance this afternoon and again this evening.

(Canadian Pness) NIAGARA RAILS, Sept, 2., - Tho Dominion convention of the Canadian Legion expressed itself as opposed to the idea of lesollzlbs sweepstakes in Canada. The cori- vention adopted, with only one dis- enting voice, o, report of a special committee, advocating that no steps be taken for a change of the law regarding sweepstakes. The committee urged that the Domin- ion command he instructed to op- pose, now and in the future, any attempts to alter this law. It was also recommended that the proffer- red gift of $57,023 from the Army and Navy Veterans Association o! Canada, which, it was claimed, was wholly derived from sweepstakes. be returned forthwith to the donors The claim of an Alberta delezlli-B that many branches in the Prov- ince would be in open rebellion i! the report was adopted, was not heeded by other delegates. The Al- beta marl claimed if sweepstakes were legalized the Legion Ought to participate in them. Rev. F. R.

OSLO, Norway, Sept. l-The radio station at Bergen has been unable to effect a contact with Sir Hubert Wilkins‘ polar submarine Nautilus for the past three days and there is much speculation as to what may have happened to the craft. Every night the station has called and every day, it has lis- tened for an answering signal which has not come. It is presumed that the Nautilus has gone under the ice pack and that her radio signals have not been strong enough for Bergen to pick up.

It is a matter he must thresh out with Mr. Mellon and the Replllll’ can leaders of the House andSenate before the opening of Congress in December. It. appears now to be very much a two-sided problem.

Mr. Mellon, despite his resort 8t this time to another huge bond is- sue, is known to favor a revision of taxes to raise the necessary funds to meet a prospective billion dollar deficit next year. The fiscal year ending Juno 30, incurred a $909,- 000,003 deficit, largely met by a long term bond issue.
