BIG SENSATION
Quebec, Dec. 22.i—Considerable
excitement was caused here by the
discovery of an illicit still for the
manufacture of whisky in the very
heart of the city. The discovery
was made through the accidental
explosion of a boiler.
The explosion set fire to the

sation is that one of the illicit dis
tillers is a Sargeant of the city po
lice force named Redmond, who is
fearfully burned.

‘Pawn Ticket 210.”
Amy Lee, the charming and I
popular Soubrette with a very
strong company of star artiste and
special scenery to be produced at I
Nevin’s ou Monday, Dec. 24th with
a cast headed by Amy Lee, Frank
Doane, and P. Aug. Anderson, wiU
be received with delight by theatr e
goers, for thereaeou that thin come
dy drama is one of the most inter
esting and noi able that has ever
emanated from the pen of Ameri
can authors,
The story of “Pawn Ticket 210’
is of particular interesting col
etruction, being of such a natur e
that the audience is carried from
the opening to the close through
such wit and humor, interspersed
with scenes of pathos and climaxes
that are thrilling, that the interest
never flags. Tbe play is an adop"
tion of the novel “Court Royal,’
which tells the story of the want
and trials of a mother, who pawned
her baby to a Jew Pawnbroker, no
ted to be mean and miserly.
He grews fond of the pledge
‘‘Mag’’ and as time rolls on he ob
tains tbe promise of her hand in
marriage, the event to occur when
she becomes of age. Just as they ar e
to be wedded, the mother turnsup
with “Pawn Ticket 210” to redeem
her ceild. who turns out to be an
heiress. This is, perhaps, the moi
thrilling of the many climaxes
but one of the most pathetic inci
dents is the death of “Uncle Har
ris.”

nation of artists.
China After Warships.
New York December 21. A
Chinese ag®nt is in Washington
negotia ig with Senor at Mendonca
Minister for Brazil, for the pur
chase of the Niekeroy and the And
rada. These veesels were once fitted
out in New York to aid the Brazil
ian Govt rumen t to put down Mel
low’s insurgent navy.
The Zalinski dynamite gun on
the Nictbory is the main reason
why China wants the vessel, It
served its purpose in tbe Brazilian
war by inspiring terror among the
insurgents rather than by any real
\eervice. The Chinese agent thinks
it will serve the same purpose
the Japanese.
