I wired J. Ross Robertson to find out if they had any authority to solicit subscriptions or collect money for the Hospital? He answered that no person had authori- ty to solicit subscriptions or collect money for the hospital. After I got that answer we tried to get them but. they had gone and no body could tell which way they went,so if they should turn up in your town you will know that they are getting money under false pretences and deal wieh them ac- cordingly' They secured about $100 in Seaforth. Later: -The women were on Friday arrested in Wingham after having secured $20 from citizens. The money was taken front them and they were allowed to go.

"East Lynne" which comes to the Opera House, Exeter, Wednesday' ev- ening, is one of the strongest emotion- al dramas ever written. It is estimat- ed that it has been seen by more than 20,000,000 people and its gross takings have been in the neighborhood of $10,- 000,000. It has more metropolitan runs to its credit than any other play of re- cent times. The natural deduction is that it is it play that appeals to all classes. Lady isabella's simple story, her grief and anguish and her spirited denunciation of the man, who took ad- vantage of her innocence, go to stake n a pretty, unaffected and direct play. This company recently appeared in Port Huron, Mich., and the Daily Times of Oct. 2, 1903, speaking of the performance, says: "The Raymond and Poore "East Lynne" Company drew capacity audiences to the City Opera Douse Saturday afternoon and evening. The company was a good ono and gave the best production of this well known drama ever seen in the city." The price of admission have been placed at 25 and 35 cents. Additional Locals on page 1. Ey.
