Lieutenant Love. speaking for himself and
his colleague. said they We're certainly most
agreeabiy and pleasantly surprised in the

Improving Transport Service.
1t has at length dawned upon the trans
port authorities that considerable waste
of time and money is incurred in getting
ready some of the finest passenger
steamers for transporting troops to South
Africa. a few weeks ago one such vessel
was denuded of her fittings, and. owing
TO the non-arrival of sufficient numbe,
OF hammocks. was greatly DELAYED in sail
ing; while another vessel. with her usual
berthS. Was capable of carry 1000 assem-
gers, but when the admiralty had finished
with her and substituted nammocks the
accommodation was reduced by several
hundred Now the Afric of the White Star
Australian service. which has inst COM
pleted her maiden voyage is to be allowed
to sail with troops without being Quilted
This is certainly a step in the right direc-
tion and will result in quicker dispatch be-
sides greater comfort to the men and less
cost to the country in removing and sinh
seque ntly replacing fittings

Through the Breakers" new mel
odrama by Owen Davis, which comes
to the Grand Opera House next week,
derives it's name from the strong sit
uations in the third act. From. a cave
high on a rock, the heroine escapes
to passing ship by frail and toss
ing lifeline. Through the Breakers
tells a story Of life along the coast of
England. Maude Radford, an orphan
heiress, afraid that the unwelcome at
tentions of ePter Turner, her guar
dams nephew, will result in bitter
family quarrel, decides to secretly
marry Stephen Douglas, a young tele-
graph clerk, whom she really loves.
The marriage is performed by the
Rev. Charles Movie and is kept a Sc
cret. Maude is, however, forced at
last to put stop to Turner'S ad-
vances, and tells him that she is an
other mans wife. Turner, although
greatly angered by this information,
pretends to give up all hope of gain
ing her love. At his first meeting with
Douglas, however, he loses control of
himself, and at the end of a strong
scene, stabs Douglas and rushes from
the room. Douglas is taken to his
home in supposed dying condition,
and the kidnapping of the Rev.
Charles Movie removes the last wit
ness of the marriage ceremony. Maude
herself, overcome by the shock OF lie
assault upon Douglas, falls an easy
prey to Turner's schemes, and is lured

from her house and carried to SNUG
gler's cave. The third act shows Maude
and the Rev. Charles Movie in the
hands of the smugglers, who are tools
of Turner, and are quite ready to do
his bidding. Turner tries to force
Maude into marriage with him, tell
ing her that Douglas is dead and that
she is in his power. > Maude scorn-
fuzzy refuses to become his wife, and
the Rev. Charles Movie, in spite of
threats of death, refuses to perform
the ceremony. How Maude is rescued
from the smugglers, the exciting scene
in which a clew to her hiding place is
discovered, and the final overthrow
and death of Peter Turner are situa-
lions Of which the author has taken
full advantage, and in two of the final
scenes very unusual scenic effects are
produced. One of them is fine
mechanical sea and thrilling journey
Of Maude Radford from the cave to
a distant ship, suspended over the
breakers by a tossing lifeline. The
second is sensational fight on a
.overhanging cliff, twenty feet high,
and the passing of a full-rigged ship
as the last curtain falls The cast
is very strong and contains the names
of many well-known players, includ-
ing Fanny Mcintyre, Sol Aiken, James
Bevins, J. H. Cossar, w. S. Stone, An
tOinette Walker, Joseph Keefe, Francis
Sheen and Charles tSewart.
