AMuSEMENTS

at the Clunie Opera-house this evening
George Bidwell, the famous "Ticket-of-
Leave" man, who perpetrated the most
tremendous forgery known to history,
and outwitted that great financial institu-
ton, the Bank of England, will lecture.
His subject is Forging His Own
Chains" His purpose is declared to be
not to boast of crime, but by the telling
of the story of his own life and that of his
brother and associates in the forgery, to
warn youth how it may be led into GRIM
inal paths and vicious ways by easy steps,
and to make his own case serve as a
warning, in the hope that it may deter
those who are tempted to do evil. He
also claims to expose the inner life of
Woking, Dartmoor, Pentowville and
Chatham prisons. Bidwell is said to
dwell with especial emphasis upon the
temptations and dangers before young
business men, who step aside, at first
with no intention of doing wrong, and
who excuse themselves to their own con-
sciences by pleading the urgent necessity
of the moment. Bidwell ruined his en-
tire life, he says, learning the lesson that
the way to crime is easy, and that each sue
cessiye step is more dangerous and rapid
than the preceding one Bidwelrs
famous forgery, which was the finale of
long career OF crime, tapped 1.-THE
Oiu Lazy OF InreauneedIe Street,
for e5OO, 900, and proved that at the time
the banks method of doing one kind of
business was OF the loosest possible order.
1t Is twenty years since George and Aus
tin Bidwell, two Americans, and their
associates startled the financial world by
their great swindle upon the Bank of
England. They were captured and sem
fenced to life epenal servitude. Four years
or more ago woman, a devoted sister.
who spent fifteen years of her life in the
work, secured the release OF George Bid
we'll upon ticket of leave; only few
months ago did she succeed in getting
Austin Bidwell out of the penal estab-
Hshment. Their comrades are still the
occupants of English prisons, and for
their release the Bidwells are now work.
ing for what they claim to be high and
commendable purpose. Austin BidwelPs
release, it should be added, was gained
because of his gallantry in saving a
mans life" George was released be-
cause to longer contine him would have
been to kill him. But all this story the
elder brother is to relate tonight, and the
auditors must judge if the tale and its
purpose justities the claim made for its
recital.
The sale of seats for the cake-walk en-
tertalnment tomorrow night is being
