the lox industry recently is the in- troduction of English capital through the investment bv Mr. E. L. Payton of Birmingham, in n new fox proposi- tion which will soon be pui; on the market. Mr. Payton is f. member of a large manufacturing firm in Birm- ingham and is connected with lead- ing manufacturers throughout the Midlands and in London. His uncle Mr. Henry Payton, J. P., is the Chairman of Mr. Joseph Chamber- 1sin’s constituency in West Birming- ham, a position which he has held ` ever since Mr. Chamberlain entered politics.

The company in which Mr. Payton has become interested will have sever- al leading Islanders on the director- ate. It is interesting to note that Mr. Payton, while in Toronto, heard indirectly through The Guardian of the great possibilities of the fox business. He got into communication with Mr. W. K. Rogers of Charlotte- town and Mr. Stewart, of Alherton, and on their recommenda- tion came to the Island to make .per- sonal investigatious. He called upon leading citizens and made independ- ent inquiries for himself, taking nothing for granted but probing the information to its source. Among those he visited was Mr. J. E. B. McCready, the Publicity Agent, to 'whom he has subsequently returned and expressed- his satisfaction at the reliable information he had received, and his pleasure at meeting with so many straight-forward, high-prlnci- pled business men in Charlottetown and the Island generally. He said 'he felt confident that the Islanders themselves were convinced of' the great future for the industry and he

saw. no reason from the facts subv-

miitted to him why, even when it cani`e'to'a pelt basis, the fox indus- try should not be a paying proposi- tion and a permanency in the Island.

Mr. Payton and his friends have

invested $70,000 in the industry and he promises when he returns to Birm ingham, which he is to do this week. that he will interest other moneyed neople there, feeling confident that there will be 3 considerable response to any invitation that may be made for capital to put in the industry. Mr. Payton says that there m.av seem to be considerable risk in an investment of the kind when put before an in- vestor who has not had nn oppor- tunity of ruakinfr n personal investi- ration, but he feels thordughly satis- fied that there is a greater chance of wetting good returns from the monev invested in foxes than in the mniority of propositions put ,ou the market, which necessitate s large ex- penditure in plant and machinerv or which are dependent unon the deve- lopment of country or town, as is the case with real estate investments in the West. The stock which Mr. Payton and his friends have secured an option upon is of the verv highest pedlvree classed in the Fox Breeders Assoclation's hooks.

ST. JOHN, Nov. 5.-The meeting

oi the St. John Board of Trade call- ed to-nigut to consider the draft of the agreement between the I. C. R. and the O. P. R. under which the C. P. R. and the Allan Line mail steafners will terminate their voy- ages at Halifax this winter instead of coming on to this port, developed the fact that the business men ul this city are very much up in arms over the situation which has resulted in the loss to St. John of the Em- press steamers without apparently compensation except a few direct sailings of the Allan Line steamers.

Ai; the meeting to-night two reso-

lutions were passed, one protesting against the terms of the agreement as discriminatory against St. John and demanding that the city of St. John have authority to call wit_ness- es before the meeting of the Railway Commission to prove the charges of discrimination and the calling upon the city commissioners to authorize J. B. M. Baxter, Recorder of St. John, to proceed to Ottawa in the city’s interests and take charge of the ease for St. John.

I-lon. Wm. Pugsley, ex~Minister of

Public Works, was at the meeting

and he declared that the agreement wus discriminatory and intimated that if it was approved by the gov- ernment, Hou. J. D. Hazen, repre- senting St. John City and County, should resign. Mr. Pugsley said he felt like resigning himself as it would then give the government a chance to find out just how strong the feel- ing here was against the agreement. He oflered his legal services to the city free of charge in the fight at the Railway Commission and suggested that the best legal talent available should he engaged, mentioning Re- corder Baxter as the man for the mission. This was later embodied in a resolution and passed. | After the meeting more were two opinions, one that the situation had goecome even more serious and that 'sn John, independent of politics, should unite to fight what one speak. er declared was the nnost iniquitous agreement of the kind ever entered inLo. .

A The other was rather of resentment against Mr. Pugsley for treating the question from a political standpoint, ln an attempt to embarrass Mr. Ha- zen who, it was realized, had done his utmost in the interests of his constituency.

A FLAG OF TRAGEDY.

Tragedy and n noble deed are wrap-

ped up in a miniature flag which has just been presented to the Canterbury Museum; New Zealand. It is a New Zealand cnsign with the Union Jack and the Southern Cross, and it meu-

Isures only two inches by three. De-

spite its size, it will prove a source of interest for many a year to come. Briefly, it has been to the South Pole; s dead man kept his promise. When Dr. Wilson, one of Captain Scott‘s ill-fated polar party, left Lyttletou some two years ago for the Antartic regions, Miss Annie W. I-lardy, of Rakaia, placed in his hands a miniature flag of New Zeal land, with the request that if Dr. Wilson formed one of the Polar party he would take the little flag with him. This Dr. Wilson did, and the flag was found on his dead body when discov- ered. It was brought back by the re- lici party and returned to Miss Har- dy by Mrs. Wilson, the dead explor- er's wife, and by Mies Hardy present- ed to the Museum.

The Opera House was lagain crowd-

The keynote of the plot is deception. Lady Jessica Neppcan (Miss Sue Van Duzer), wife of Gilbert Neppean, (Mr. C. N. Stark), has the fortune and the mls- fortune to be loved by and to fall ln love with Edward Fslkner, (Mr. Her- bert Charles). On her part an inno- cent flirtaticn is carried somewhat beyond decorons limits. She takes several “wrong turns" accidentally and on 'each occasion happens to meet Falkner. They are seen together in a hotel where lonlkner has ordered a most elaborate dinner and the affair threatens to become a scandal. She enlists a number of friends to help her "lie" out of lt. Her husband, who has had his suspicions for some time, hears of it sud threatens to become troublesome. The friends in lying her out of the mess make more trouble through being unable to agree

husband and Falkner have a mutual friend, Sir Christopher Deeri-ug (Mr. Frank Conway), whose sensible ad- vice and admirable method of pre- seating alternatives succeeds at last in reconciling husband and wife and sending Falkner to Africa to finish a diplomatic task entrusted to him by the Brftlph Government and so sav- ing himself and his career. The re- conciliation between husband and wife and the abandonment of his love affair by Fslkner are perhaps disap- pointing but n natural sequence to playing with fire.

In the elaboration of the plot Miss

Van Duzer took her part with con- summate skill. The part was a most difficult one and wasmagnlilceutly carried through. She was well sus- tained by her follow "liars," Mr. Harry Stubbs, as Freddie Tatton, the husband who always 'subsided' at the request of his wife; Mr. Eugene Le Rue as Archibald Coke who was the
