has excited more than passing interest
was Ensign Martin. the first man to

intervene. He is married and has one
child. a little girl named Julie. His
wife Ii a quiet. home loving woman,
without any ambition to shine In socie-
ty. but immensely proud Of her hus-

That the ensign has not forgotten his
old comrades is evinced by a recent in
terview In which he spoke very warm

hind him. And he spoke. too. In q way
calculated to make them bestir them

me first fact that attracted the at
tention of s,ceculators was that the
price level Of existing stocks did not
consist with the relative benefits that
they were to receive from the ex-

the price level on a consistent basis.

Everything points to a great treat at
the Auditorium Thursday night, March
7th, in The ROYAL Box" which is be-
ing presented by that capable artist,
Mr.. Andrew Robson. The late Chas.
CoghDan left legacy to the stage that
cannot be placed on too high value.
1t is one Of the most able. scholarly
and interesting dramas that the pres
ent age has known. 1t may be truth
fully said to have no contemporary
plays inasmuch as it got beyond the
reach of the average dTamatist of the
present day. First of all it came from
the na9ter hand of Dumas and then
with the perfect English of the scholar
Cogh.an made OF it a play that will
last while the stage is known.
The company which Is to present il
numbers q lot of people who have
made place for themselves by hard
work and those who have seen the
performance declare that as far as
f"nan ingenuity Is concerned it is per-
feet.
