London papers have enjoyed three or four days of almost frenzied excitement, with demands and denunciations, often in language stronger than the dignity of British politics has permitted in the memory of the present generation.The crucial events in Rumania and Greece have been given à secondary place, except as they were used as a basis for attacks on the Ministers.\u201cThe strong man wins\u201d

cabinet headed by Herbert H.Asquith as Prime Minister.The resignation of Mr.Asquith has been accepted by King George, who has tendered the portfolio to Andrew Bonar Law, Unionlet Leader in the House of Commons.Should Mr, Bonar Law decline the appointment the fesling in London is that David Lioyd George will receiw} the tender.In Rumania the forces of the Central Powers are cedtinuing their drive

the only railroad running from Bucharest except to the east.\u201d If the press of the Teutons is maintained, the indications are het they [soon will be at the doors of the capital.a 3 ; In the north-west, from the Corpathians to the Moldiwian fron region, the Russian offensive is making little if any progress.While Petrograd announces the capture of another range of heights on the Moldavia front, the Russian War Office admits the recapture by the Teutons in the wooded Carpathian sector of a height south of Voroneshka.Berlin says the Russian attacks everywhere have been without gvail.+ On the Macedonian front east of the Cema river the Serbians north of Grunishte and Budmirtsa have taken additional fortified positions from the Bulgarians.The Bulgarians in this region are said to be retreating.Artillery duels and here and there small attacks by infgetry continue to prevail on the western front in France and Belgium.; The Austro-Italian and Russian war theatres have bjeu barren of

Dec.5\u2014A Foreign Office despatch recsived tonight from Athens by the Greek legation here says normal conditions have been restored in the capital.It describes the fighting between the Veniselists and reservists incident to the clash between Greek and Allied troops Saturday as an attempted insurrection by rowdies who were quickly suppressed.A paraphrase of the despatch given out by the legation follows: \u201cAg you have already been informed, rowdies attempted Saturday to take advantage of the deplorable encounters which occurred between the detachments of the Allies and the Gresk troops to create a sudden insurrection.They killed and injured several civilians and military men.\u201cThe government took immediately the necessary steps and order was completely re-established.The capital now has its normal aspect.1 am informed, however, that several press cablegrams have described the repression of the broils in the most whimsical manner.\u201cNo tebellion has been checked with more rapidity.If any excesses have been committed, they must be imputed to the madness of the moment and to the exasperation dus to seeing painful firing which cost blood of the army, and to a sedition which had been promoted agiinet civilians and military men, and which had been prepared long ago and kept quiet.\u201cNevertheless the royal government will not fail to make an effort to show their severity against any person accused of having committed criminal acts.\u201d A report from Minister Droppers at Athens, reaching the State Des partment today, said there was much excitement in the Greek capital, but gave few particulars about the situation.Ic was the first time the Minister had been heard from in weeks.TROUBLE IN DUMA.Londen, Dee.B\u2014Michasl Rodsisnko, President of the Russain Duma, has resgned on account of being insulted by the extreme Rightist Leader, M.Markoff, according to a Reuter despatch from Petrograd.Markoff interrupted M.Rodsianko, calling him a \u201cbabbling blackguard.\u201d M.Markoff explained that he was deliberately insulting the Duma in the person of its president, because the Duma in a previous sitting had insulted high personages.M,

6567-6563 MONTREAL WOMEK WANT PROHIBITION SIR LOMER PUTS QUESTION BEFORE COLLEAGUES A delegation of 164 women from Moatres! and vicinity met Sir Lemer Gouin in the Parliament Buildings sterday afternoon and urged the ier to establish (ull prohibition sll over the province of Quebec and suspend at once all licences for the duration of the war.After several petitions signed by numerous members of varieus temperance and other societies of Montreal and neighborhood had been read and presented to him, Sir Lomen alter remarking that his Gevernment had already done à great deal for temperance promisté he woulé put a the suggestions that had been wade to him before his colleagues and would give ta the solution of the sll important question the best of his heart and intelligence.Mrs.Walter Paul, who presented the delegation to the Prime Ministerremarked shat the delegation largely represented the vote of the womn cf | Montreal and district, societies of ait kind who fully realized the great importance of temperance and prohibition during the present difficult times.Mrs.Mayburn then presented the petition to Sir Lomer after it had been read in both English and French and another petision by the Protestant Female School Tcach-re of Montreal was also placed before the Premier.Miss Reid, speaking for the Pa:- riotic Fund of Montrealwhat was being done specially to promote temperance amongst the relatives of soldiers and amongst the returned soldiers themselves, remarking the question was a vital one for the Fund workers.She stated there were 490 families in Montreal who wcre receiving assistance and were known to be more or less addicted to alcoholism.She described some fearful scenes witnessed by visitors belonging to the Red Cross Fund and emphasized the fact that immorality was closely connected with the use of strong drink.Returned soldiers | were treated too well by their friends and were tempted to make use and even abuse of drink on their return.She made a strong appeal for legislation in favor of protibition.Mrs.Trenholm, who represented the Soldiers Wives League, spoke of the terrible ravages done by drink and asked that the soldiers wives and children be protected by special measures during the war.Speeches were also made by rep- rescntatives of the Khaki League and the Irish Temperance Society.Mrs.Professor Derrick took up the question from an economic point of view.She remmrked that a large quantity of raw material was used fn the manufacture of liquor which could be put to a much better use.and this she said would represent real true economy.She asked that sll licences be suspended at least during the duration of the war.Mrs.Papadapoulos who represent ed the Council of Women.said the measure was a real war measure.Even a nu nber of women who were not themselves teetotalers had declar ed themselves in favor of prohibition | legislation.She also insisted upon the close connection between drink.immorality and social diseases.cal! came from the trenches for more men and the hospitals were full of men who through drink were unable to answer that call.Mrs.Scott stated that if they bad waited uniil the end of the week they could have bronght 1,100 women.Ail those present had paid their own expenses.She paid a few compliments to the Government of Sir Lomer.If the prohibition legislation might J mean some loss of revenue, which the , women did not admit.she hoped tha: the Government who knew so weil _ how to husband its resources would © not refuse to put its hand in fs pocket for such a good cause.Sir Lomer Gouin, after reading the petition which had been presented to him, remarked that since 1908 similar requests had been made to the Government.Himself and his colleagues had tried to meet the demands of the people.The Government had always attempted to do what was asked by the people of Quebec and he himself had been one of the first Premiers in this country to apenly state he was a friend of temperance.Every year all that was possible had heen done; ficences had been reduced in a number of places and the Premier and his culleagues were happy to see that à large number of municipalities had taken advantage of the law allowing them to appesl to the people in favor of prohibition.Under the present circumstances there was a great move in favor of temperance and prohibition.Several delegations have - asked for prohibition not only for the deration of the wag but for all times.Some of them have mentioned that \"there could be no prohibition without \u201c8 referendum and other had claimed prohibition would have to be accom- nied by compensation which would Mvoive thousands and perhops mil- Hons of dollars.Some of them had mid they did not want a referendum and that if prohibition was not grant- od the Premier and his friends were not the friends of the people.The Prime Minister said thut oH those demands had to be carefully considered, + it was a question which did set only lavoive che present but aivo de \u2018tu be.1 can promise the best of my heart and my intelligence and judg- solution of this mest hm- explained : also - The!

apply it at night when retiring; wee enough to moisten the scalp i rub it in gently with the finger tips.Do this tonight, and by morning, most if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trece of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have.You will find.too, that all itching aid digging of the scalp will stop at once, and your hair will be flufty, lustrous, glassy, silky and soft.and look and feel à hundred times better, You can get liquid arvon at any drug more.It is inexpensive and never fails to do the work.portant problem.\u201d On the way from Montreal the ladies belonging to the delegation absolutely refused to eat any potatoes on the dining cars of the train and advised all other passengers to do fikewise, this being nart of the boycott movement in Montreal to protest against the exorbitant prices.While they were waiting for the Prime Minister and even during the speeches in the private bills committee room, a great number of the women knitted or did crochet work for the soldiers at the front.CHRISTMAS PRESENTS, Simons & Minguy have now on view a large assortment of useful Christmas presents.See advertise pe «| Judgments by the Honorable Chief nature, j fuller ;

continue to be served them just ns: long as they refuse to cut the wood | necessary for cooking.ete.This | course was adopted by those in\u2019 charge of the internment camp as the most effective way of making these interns +d foreigners realize that Canada is at war with Germany and Austria, and \u2018lat internment camps are not conducted on the same principle as charity institutions.Judging by the reports of Canadian soldiers who have been prisoners of war in Germany, no subjects of any of the Allied nations would hope to receive much consideration if he refused to do the work allotted to him while held in 3 German interment camp.More forcible measures than those adopted st Amos would without doubt be employed by the Huns\u2014_\u2014\u2014 A GENEROUS ACT APPRECIATED \u2018The management of the Empire Theatre is in receipt of the following letter which speaks for itself: Quebec, December 2nd, 1913.Management, Empire Theatre, Quebec, P.Q.Dear Sirs: I take the liberty of writing to you to.thank you for your kindness ia giving free tickets for your theatre to the returned invalids.I assure you that this has been very much appre ciated by the returned men, and goes s long way to keep them in good spirits.Plesse accept my deepest spprecia- tion.Yours very sincerely, E.BARTON, Capt, Adj't.Discharge Depot.STADACONA CHAPTER, 1.O.D.E.There was a large attendance at Chapter, Daughters of the Empire.Considerable busineis was transacted after which the drawing for the bridal doll presented by Mrs.Machin took place, the lucky prize winner being Mrs, Sinnins.A REAL BOOK SALE The Cambridge Book Store have an announcement in this paper at the top of this page.They carry a splendid stock of books\u2014all the time\u2014but have excelled themselves for this year's Christmas shopping.ARRESTED ON ALLEGED CHARGE OF FRAUD, Word was received yesterday by the Provincial Police that a man named J.Baptiste Thibault had been arrested in Montreal on an alleged charge of defrauding Joseph Ward & Co., of Montreal, whom he represented last summer in Quebec.Detective Pierre Trudel of the Provincial Police left yesterday afternoon for Montreal and will return with Thibault this morning.ALBION LODGE NO.8, A.F.& A.M.ELECTS OFFICERS At a well-attended meeting of Albjon Lodge, No.3, A.F.& À.M., the election of officers for the ensuing year took place and resulted as follows: W.M.\u2014Bro.Phillips.8.W.\u2014Bro.B.Draufield.J.W.\u2014Bro.J.Smith.Secy.V.Wor-\u2014Bro.Staton.Tress.V.Wor\u2014Bro.A.T.Cooper, Chap.~Rt.Wor, Bro.W.G.Feltows.Rep.to Masonic Hall Ass'n\u2014Rt.Wor.Bro.J.W, Barrington\u2014\u2014 cman c\u2014\u2014 Serbian Reflef Committee The Serbian Relief Committes are holding a sale of bags, cushions and Xmag novelties at the Kirk Hall this Wednesday, Dec, 6th, at 8 o'clock.Toa will be served and there will be home-made bread, cakes \u201cand sweets for sale and various amuse- season in this land of full and plenty us give a thought and what help can to tihe little nativn now fa throes of awful fighting and ee gaz need of belo of every - .\u201c + We now have on display all the beautifully iflustrated Books always found at our Store during the Christmas shopping BOOKS OF ART, BOOKS OF TRAVEL, BOOKS OF THE POETS, BOOKS OF CLASSICAL WRITERS.BOOKS OF STANDARD WRITERS All in Illustrated Editions BOOKS ON CANADA.BOOKS OF THE CANADIAN POETS.BOOKS OF CANADIAN FICTION.AN the very best of the latest fiction of :\u2014 ENGLISH WRITERS.CANADIAN WRITERS, UNITED STATES WRITERS, Etc.Etc We read our fiction, and personally know every volume sold.BOOKS AND ALSO GIRLS BOOKS We import direct from England and Scotland, and we sell principally Books for Boys and Girls of the English writers.we find them the best, beth as to the real worth, hest English used, and better got up and more attractive than the offerings of any other country.JUVENILES AND ANNUALS Great selection to choose from for all ages.Among them: \u2014DICKENS RETOLD!

attesting to his ring ability.But the trip to Buenos Ayres and other places in South America has made him | one of the best developed fighters in the business.Devere returned to America à giant in stature.This twenty-three year old youngster now tips the beam at 214 pounds and is 6 feet 3 inches high, Bob proved a sensation in South America where, among other \" stars whom he defeated, he knocked , out the South American champion, ! Roias, in three rounds, the latter \"never having a look-in.This bout took place in Santiago and when Devere\u2019s opponent was counted out, the Kansas giant was given a trem- | endous ovation.| Devere has already engaged many of the topnotchers in ring battle, | having put up classy exhibitions against Jack Dillon, Ganboat Smith | and Battling Tevinsky just prior to leaving for South America.Bob is one of the few white heavyweights | who bars no man, and is ready to \"face them all, black or white, just\u2019 so he is given a chance to demon.| strate his worth, It is Devere's purpose to take on the so-calied heavyweight stars who are persistently challenging Jess Willard for a chance at the title, and by the elimination process, work his way up to a point where he can gain recognition and demand a match with the champion.As was the case with his predecessors, Champion Jess Willard will be dethroned some way and right now it Jocks as if the Kansas City giant will be the man to turn the trick when the opportune moment arrives.In order to prove his sincerity in the! matter, Devere throws his hat into There wee a busch of \u201cIdle Husbands\u201d looking at \u201cIdle

health of the Province of Que bec was proposed by Ald K Theriault, M.L.A., who briefly traced the history of the Province and showed how this was a land of liberty and tolerance.There was absolute freedom liere and the absence of all frie.tion was amply testiued by th: presence at the banquet of so many French-Canadians who formed at least seventy-five per cent.oi those present, to honor an Irieh-Canadian representative of the.Legislature for the City of Quebec.Hon.L.A.Taschereau, Minister of Public Works and Labor, who urged that the best way to help the Legislature was to have good municipal administration and he complimented the City of Quebec on their honesty and integrity in administration.He pointed to the resources of the Province and showed that in a few years Quebec would be the market of the world in the production of paper.while at the present time it supplied 3 per cent.of the asbestos produced in the Dominion.Speaking of the war, Hon.Mr.Taschereau said that there was à trouble- || some question which was agitating public opinion just now.lt was the part which the Province of Quebec was playing in the war which was devastating Europe.In many places the stone was thrown at the Provines of Quebec, and it was said that \u201cheir effort to help the Allies was not cqual to those made by other Provinces.Mr.Taschereau affirmed that if statistics were provided from the proper source, with exception for all Furopeans who had left Canada for the front, it would be found that she Pruvince of Quebec had done its share and had done as much as other Provinces.Those who calumniated the Province of Quebec should come here and see the humes that were mourning the loss of some member, and witness the service which was held at the Basilica last week for the repose of the souls of the Quebec officers and men who had paid the supreme sacrifice a the front.Was there a battalion that had done more heroic service than the 22nd, and he expressed the

that if it were not for the brave sailors who have passed two winters North Sea, and the brave soldiers homes for more than two years, facing death in the cold and muddy trenches, many, alas, never tc return, our [INDIGNATION MEETING ON ~ WARD REDISTRIBUTION \u2014 RALLY IN BERTHELOT HALL TONIGHT TO PROTEST AGAINST S8IX-WARD DIVISION DECIDED BY THE PRIVATE BILLS COMMITTEE.| the whole situation to their electors.Other aldermen who are in favor oi the eightward divisiop wil also attend as well as members of the Legis lature and a large number of taxpayers who want the decision of the City Council, which was carried ou® according to the dictates of the Legislature, respected as it should be.- Some important declarations will be made at this meeting and some challenges will be issued.\u2014Advt.have had the experience of fire and sword of poor Belgium.It is not only the French rursl population that is thus indiferent.There ie a large English-speaking parish in this dictrict, which, I am told.has not sent one soldier tq the front.Surely there must be some means of bringing our agricultural classes to a sense of their duty.If we do not make a supreme effort now, when the war is, it is to be hoped, drawing to a close, the result is going to be a loss of the prestige of the Province, when the war is over.Because we may be sure that the West, with its rapidly increasing representation in Parliament, will not hesitate to tell us, when the victory is won, that we did net do our share.Surely we cannot turn a deaf car to the cry for help, which comes to us from our comrades in the trenches, the heroes of Ypres and of Courcelette, nor disregard the appeal and the example of the representatives «f the old historic families o! the Province, who are fighting in Flanders, not for conquest nor for aggression, but only to maintain for us the peace and happiness and self-government we have so long enjoyed.If we do, we may sadly fold away the proud escutcheon of the .Province\u2014Je me souviens\u2014for we shall no longer be worthy of it.Yours truly, QUEBEC.\u2014 CHALLENGES MRS.: REFORD'S STATEMENTS.Quebec, December 4th, 1933.To the Editor of the Chronicle: Dear Sir \u2014Some time ago Mrs.R.W.Reford gave a lecture before the Women's Canadian Club about the war.The decture wae certainly interesting; unfortunately, Mrs.Reford made remarks, most sulting, for the Province of Quebec and the French Canadians.If the tecturer had been à man, I would have protested at once; but being a woman, and being myself only a guest of the Ciub, I said nothing; the lecture over.knowing Mrs.Reford, I went to congratulate her on the greatest part of her lecture; .but said that her remarks about Quabec and the French-Canadians in particu lar were wrong and surely made on false information.Mrs.Reford answered me.that she was ready to prove what she said, though so far no proofs have come.A few days after, a remarkable article was published in \u201cLe Presse\u201d, proving, as 1 knew it, the very contrary of Mre Reford's cemarks.1 immediately sent her that article, and :he enclosed tet- ters were exchanged.I will ask you to be kind enough to publish them, and accept my best thanks in advance.Yours truly, P.AUG.CHOQUETTE.Quebec, 28th November, 1916.Mrs.R.W.Reford, 300 Drummond St, Montreal, , Dear Madam,~Pardon me for sending you the enclosed article of \u201cLa Presse\u201d in answer to your remarks about supposed Quebec slackers.I admit that these remarks were made in good faith, but on misinformations, as I took the liberty of telling you after your vety eloquent and interesting lecture.You will please remark that the oumber of recruits therein mentioned are taken from the \u201cMail\u201d and other Toronto papers.I hope after perusing these calcula- Doctor Tells How À Free You Can Have Milled Use at Home.Philadelphia, Pa.\u2014Do you wear glasses?Are you a vieum of eye strain or other eye weakness?If so, ou will be glad to knew that accord- ng to Dr.Lewis there is real ho for you.Many whose eyes were failing say they have had their eyes restored through the principle of this wonderful free prescriptivn.One man ar after trying it: \u201cI was almost blind;
