Amateur Dramatic Society.

The annual meeting of the
Prince Rupert Amateur Dramatic
Society was held in the offices of
Mr. Frank A. Ellis last evening.
There was not a very large, at-
tendance of members. Mr. Bul-
lock-Webster, the retiring presi-
dent, in a few words, gave a re-
sume ofthe doing of the society
for the last year. He regretted
that they had not been able
through various reasons to ac-
somplish a great deal. He him-
self feared, through the numer-

fhe dominant note throughout
‘ieeting was the prospect of
real year in 1913. Member
! expressed the be-
city would experi-

interests he had had to at-
tend to that he had not been able
to be very active in advancing the
affairs of the society. The fol-
lowing officers were elected for
the ensuing year: President,
Frank A, Ellis; vice president, J.
W. Chapple; secretary-treasurer,
Miss Johnston; executive, G. 8.
Fitzmaurice and H, W,. Birch. A
vdial vote of thanks was ex-
tended to Miss Johnston, who is
entering her third term as seec-
retary, for the keen interost she
has taken and the amount of time
she has devoted to furthering the
work of the society. It is grati-
fying to state that the finances of

MEAT FAMINE THREATENS

Burns’ Fire at Calgary Has Cur-
tailed Supply Seriously.

Calgary, Jan. 27. Western

Canada, and particularly

It now transpires that the amount
of beef in cold storage in the
Burns plant,
by fire recently, was greater
at first thought. Mr.
timates that $700,000 worth of
dressed beef was consumed, with
fully as much more pork and
mutton. Much of the mutton
was shipped from Australia and
cannot be replaced for some time.
The result has been a sharp rise
in prices. Beef on the hoof has
risen from 5 to 7% cents, and is
searce even at these figures. Re-
tailers are boosting prices
