Last year he was l fifth for points in all Canada and is credit- ed with having broken the Lower Canad- I ian record for one mileby six seconds. The record is 2.14. He won the quarter and two mile championships at the C. W. . A. meet in Moncton last fall, capturing, D. Pottinger’s and W. A. Humphl°cy’s I. trophies. Davidson had several shields full of medals, numerous cups, a silver ` service or two and many other valuable prizes.

Eva Booth. ‘

Miss Eva Booth, Commissioner of the

Salvation Army, addressed a large audi- ence at the Opera House last night and was received with much cordialit-y and applause. Miss Booth spoke on her life in _ the slums of London and wore a duplicate , of the costume in which she did her mis- sion workin Wbitechapel,Seven Dials and 0 other haunts of London’s lower classes.

Her address was a most eloquent one '

anddelivered with great force. It carried ‘ conviction to many of her bearers. .
