The dramatic works of William .Shakespeare have a very strong appeal to many in this country, but they have nothing like the appeal that there is in a local drama. When two hijackers in the dead of night seized a rum running srlioonci, cruelly butchered the owner and bis son and escaped to tlu Itnili'il Sl:ili it ariiiipil a feeliuir of fulfillment. When th'ev were cleverly captured by the police and brought back to Canada, tried and convicted, it caused a feeling of satisfaction that crime was being properly rewarded. When the men appealed to higher courts to deluy the lime of execution and posMhy to escape from the toils and gel free, an. emotion of fear was registered throughout the country fear that Ibey might by some siibter fu'ge, through the manipulation of some clever lawyer make i getaway. Again there wast satisfaction Jhat they were to be re warded according lo their iieserts 'and when the climax ap proaefied thVmind of the .opulace w;Cs ready lo receive a strong impression. -Most dramatically' it vfiS ien vChcn'Sowusli, Xvho was once a oeuer man. wnrueu peupie mat uir meiiiuus now employed were not producing propeTii results and could not produce thenu 11 was no new message but the mini of the people was just ready lo receive it. .--,' Victoria Eager To Get The, Message. ., v ' A day or two before Hie execution Dr. Clem Davies of the victoria l.ity temple went lo Vancouver anu got the message from the man who knew lie was aliuul lo ilie. We in our siuijr complacency do nut know anything about what it means lo lis a criminal and neither do we realize how near niaoy of the most respectable citizens have come to .being criminals. We do not realize bow many of them ought to be clashed a criminal if all the truth were known. Dr. Davies is a young man of rare insight, and he knew. After the execution he lold the story to hi congregation in the Roya Victoria Theatre and he spoke lo close on foiir thousand, people that evening, one group at 7.30 and the other at l. .On two consecutive evenings during the following week he preached -Jaga'iu lo record congregations in another haH .ind told the ime story, lie warned them against the pij.falls of crime and used Hie dramatic slory of Sownh lo bring it before Ihem with sufficient force to leave n lasting impression. . , The drama was ned for a fomewhat similar purpose two thousand. years ago, when the greatest of men wns crucified between, two thieves. The execution, horrible as it was i re- iteml,iereil to this day and told about In everv pulpit in the conn try. True it -was not the execution of a criminal but the tragedy was mere anu was uea lo impress the human mind lAJhli rSlni lie. Uilmnn J J ' vwtiw iivi wov luiiiaii . .. l ., rama For Teaching?

When there was the whole city to draw from he did not see how any eonlraet- or could 'hope to compete. Enough Official Mderman Stephen thought there were enough officials in tho city, they were appointing in engineer and if the aldermen would ipiit interfering wilb the engineer in the discharge of his llilies they would not need any body. If he could not keep the lime they had better let him go. lie was opposed lo confidential men agd preferred to do the city uusiness in the open. .Maytjr Mcwtun also opposed the appointment. If there bnd been defects under former engin eers, bM them wait and see what the next man measures up to bo fore takim: such action. Alderman (asey wilh soma heat said the col sheets hud been faked in the past and in futurt" Ihwe would be, the same latitude. What be wanted lo do was to safeguard the public. Mderman Perry expressed Uie opinion that in the pat everything bad been done miielty and he favored trying the new engineer before making such an Cost of Rock Work Alderman McKecbnie said il was an easy matter to make es timates come out right. A time keeper would check up on the work. He rrilieizeil the cnt of pulliifg the rock on Hip streets today and advised thai such an official as proposed should be employed. Alderman Joe (Sreer did not ee how a man who was time keeper and cosl accountant for I he whole city could tie on the job all I be time. He. would have to gel his information from the other official. On a vole hen taken four aldermen voted fur and four against and the mayor reened his decision for a week. Thoe votinw for the appointment were Aldermen t!aney, Hrown, fp-Krchnie and Larson ami against were Aldermen Stephens', Joe Hreer. J. V. dreei nnd Perry.
