The third annual report on labor Or
ganization in Canada, covering the year
1913, has been issued by the department
of labor. At the close of 1918 the nu-
merical strength of organized labor in
Canada stood approximately at 10000,
an increase of nearly 10000 over the fig.
ures-at the close of 1912. The estimat-
ed membership for each of the three
years during which reports on organ.
ized labor in Canada have been issued
has been as follows: 1911, l33, 1872;
1912, l60,l20; 1913, l75,799.
These figures show an increase in
membership of over 10000 during the
two years 1912 and 1913. and suggest n
quite remarkable development during SO
brief period. The figures indicate that
the growth Of union membership has
been fairly distributed as between in
ternational bodies and those not inter.
national in character. The bulk of Ca

At the Theaters
THE DENHAM.

The offering of the Denham players
next week will be Blanche Bates great
dramatic play, "The Fighting Hope" in
which the Belasco star was seen here
several years ago.
Anna Granger is the wife of a convict
and imprisoned cashier of New York
trust company. His wife believes him
to be innocent, and SO do a great many
other people. The testimony of Burton
Temple, president of the company, sent
Granger to prison, and many believe him
to be the really guilty man, More in
order to clear her child's name of the
stigma of her fathers imprisonment
than because she really loves him, Anna
secures employment in the office OF
Temple. a la "1'he Lion and the Mouse"
She is confident she will discover proofs
of her husbands innocence, and at first
she hates Temple with deadly bitter
ness But the latter is a thoroughly hon.
orable gentleman, who is fighting to
clear his own name of the suspicion that
attaches to it. Everything hinges on the
discovery of letter that proves Grang-
er guilty, and this is finally unearthed.
Anna destroys the letter as the only
proof against him, but is Mortified when
she realizes that she no longer loves her
husband, who has cruelty wronged her
and has spent his stealings on another
woman. She has learned to love Tenn
pie, who also loves her. At the supreme
moment of the play Granger escapes
from prison and appears upon the scene,
ending with the killing of the escaping
prisoner, which foreshadows the ulti-
mate happiness of those who are freed
by his death.
The play is full of dramatic situations,
and coming as it does after "Her Hus-
bands Wife," should prove striking
contrast.
Miss Lang will have the role of Anna
Granger, which part was played by
Blanche Bates. Mr.. Anthony win be
Temple. There are other good roles for
the other Denham players.
"The Fighting Hope" will open with
the Matinee Sunday and continue for
the balance of the week, with the
Society matinee Wednesday and the reg
ular matinee Saturday.
