4 very large number Of our citizens paid
their last tribute of respect to the late A.

Baltimore st about the commencement of
the present century. Of an ancient and hon.
orable family. he removed 10 this city in
the spring Of 1925, and took an active part
in commercial pursuits. For many years
be was recognized a. the leading sugar
broker o: this city, and made large transac-
tions in that commodity, frequently con.
tracing Tor the entire sugar crop Of many
of the larges: plantations on the island OF
Cuba. Within the last ten years he retired
from active business and devoted himself
mainly to literary pursuits. He was a
great student and admirer OF the works of
Shakespeare. and became the standard OF
authority on all disputed questions as TO
the original text of the immortal bard.

Billiards..

A remarkable game was played last eve
ming at the Crescent club room, between
Maurice Daily and Albert Hoa, the latter re-
ceiying the odds of discount in 200 points.
In this game Mr.. DAILY fairly excelled him
self, making 23l points in forty minutes and
only twelve innings, his average being
10 70. His playing showed great bril-
liancy and uniformity throughout. His
score was as follows: 0. so, 76, 81, 8. 0, !. o,
l, ,l2,4, AZ.
Mr Hoa, who is one of our foremost anna
tuer players, and noted for the steadiness
and self possession Of his play, was untor
tunate in his breaks, and did not seem to
get his work in. His total of thirty one is
not more than one of his ordinary runs.
The audience was large, and immensely
satisfied with the exhibition. The good
order and silence of the assemblage was
especially commendable. During the runs
not a sound could be heard, and only when
the count was complete would the sponta
neous applause break forth. If as orderly,
appreciative and respectable audiences
were the rule at cur theatres, what bless
ing it would be to those who 60 to see the

laborer. who is really worth more. like an
attack on his rights. To defend these the
opposition meeting was held at which i.
was resolved not to work at such rates.
SO far no harm was done. The planter
could refuse to pay and the laborer to work.
If both parties passively carry out their
plan they merely starve themselves. The
planter. indeed. has the advantage of being
able TO grind his mat laid cane, BELL his syrup
and provision his family. But what will he
do next year! The laborer has no such re-
source. His troubles begin with the organl-
zation Of the strike. He is out of work and
