nounced that he will not take his
seat, prefcrring to remain on the
council. We understand that in
such a case the defeated candidate
having the highest vote is supplied
to fill the vacancy Mr.. Couch was
thirteenth man, the first twelve
being elected, therefore, his chances
look particularly fine. Thirteen is
an uplucky number sometimes, but
not always. The people of ST.
Johns would be greatly pleased If
Mr.. Couch secures the seat. He is
the greatest booster we have for a
free ferry, and It he becomes a
member of the legislature free
ferry at St. Johns is practically as
surcd. AT the recent election he
received nearly the unanimous vote
of ST. Johns voters regardless oi
party. A better representative
than Mr. Couch was never sent
from any district to any legislature.
May the toga drop upon his
shoulders.

his motto, and he means to stick TO
il. Therefore. II you are not a pat

you will resolve TO buy your meats

The house is occupied by Mrs. Geo.

Lady Constance. Barefooted Dancer,
Stricken From Court Lists.

London, Jan. zS-King Edward has

Stewart Richardson stricken from all

giving her barefoot dances at the Pal

Knollys she has been advised never TO
appear before the king again
Lady Constance Richardson collapsed
when the royal command was given to
her She tried to break her contract
with Alfred Butts. the music hall man
ager, who is said to be paying her 81 900
week, but was talked out of the plan.
Such action. she was told, would not
make amends
The king formerly was friendly to-
ward Lady Constance and admired her
athletic prowess. He first became dis
pleased with her when. after giving her
''Salome" dance before him, she sud
denly sank on her knees at the con-
clusion Of the dance and said. in the
manner of the Salome of history:
Sir. give me the head of Sir Ernest
Cassel"
Sir Ernest Cassel is the kings finan
cial adviser, and. although unpopular
generally. is a fayorite of his majesty.
The king did not relish the joke.
