An ideal spot had been selected, as one cannot see it until right up to it. One of the special’ constables who was in the posse yesterday stated that they had been all around it, but did not run on to it. Had there been any one in the tent yester- day he could have shot down every one of the specials before discovery.

This had evidently been overlooked by the refugee in his haste to get away and on the trail again. No trace of the has been found since they left the tent, and it is not known in which direction they went. There are special constables still in the woods. A constant search has been kept up since the robbery on Tuesday.

Of an entirely different order the two-reel “American” feature, “The Trail of the Lost Chord.” Here we have sentiment and poe- try of the highest order, accom- panied by the strains of Arthur Sullivan's masterpiece ‘The Lost Chord.’ This splendid picture will appeal to every one especia- ally at this Easter season when the mind turns naturally to the sublime and noble. “A Real Mother” in one reel and a new and interesting Weekly Gazette complete the program, which will be repeated tomorrow night. Mr. Davis opened by questioning the right of any man to deprive another of his life under the guise of law, and spoke of the tragic mistakes which had been made in the’past. The law, he said, was corrective and not vin- dictive, and of late years a great change had.taken place in the altitude of tke public towards criminals generally, which was evident in the greater oppor- tunities now afforded them to regain their posilion in society. Harshness did not tend to deter criminals. Mr. Kidwell for contended that the ery capital punishment was sentimental in its origin. That the fear of the extreme penalty of the law was a strong preven- tative was evident from the great increase in the number of murders during the period when capital punishment was sus- pended in France.
