He Ihurries home, after a. touching part- ing scene with his wife, Queen Mont. F090; pledging her his faithfulness and promising to return and acclaim her his bride. This is the nucleus of the stirring drama which the Company last night portrayed, and portrayed appreciative audience. Of course, Lord Walter does not return.

Sir Roger foresbadows a nobler ideal than more resistance to the Ul- ster extrcmists.

Claude Cnsilnir-Perier made a re- port to the Government this Week in which he declared that only by util- izing Brest as the chief transatlantic port will France be able to hold her own in the international trade con- test, which is sure to take place. The report indicates that the Government purposes to encourage building gi- gantic ships, even exceeding in ten- nagc thc new German Leviathalis.

Casimir- Perier declares tliu-t Brest alone measures up to the ideal because she has u sufficient depth of Water for the_ "gigantic ships which vl-.ill combine the new.

Gross, and Auguste Tessier, who have been investigating hotel condi- tion problems thrcugbout the pro- vince for several months, the follow- ing recolnmendations are made; , Gradual elimination of refreshment rooms, counters, and bars, and sub- stitution of cafes on the European style where tables and chairs are provided. Reduction of hotel licenses at Monts reul to 350 and those in Quebec ‘o 50. Reduction to some number of retail licenses. Separation of grocery business from that of the retail liquor trade, Closing all places where liquor is sold in Montreal and Quebec at 7.30 p. ru. Trial of Gothenberg and Bergen sys- tems in all cities of more than four thousand population. By these sys- tems the attraction of profit is taken away from the business by individual- ly contributing ull profit on business to the state and municipalities. The execution of the new law by two license commissioners, one at Montreal and the other at Quebec. Strict maintenance of the new law for a period of at least five years to allow a complete trial. The report is now before the House for consideration. The Connois- sion's duties did not consist in con- structing a new license law only in suggestion and amendments to exist- ing legislation. Speaking of prohibition the Com- missioners dcclarc that evidence shows that an immense majority of the population of the province are opposed thereto. Experience con- vinced them tbat prohibition is no more successful in larger towns here than elsewhere. It is practicable and thc Commissioners quote the opinion of Cardinal Gibbons and other cleri- cul law authorit es on the subject ,The Commissioners favor the Gothen- ' bl11'g"ah‘"i._.an£3» ,sr »-s Azusa.. ~`.».. * ;.,.
