Feb. 25.—Mayor Gillett was today committed for tiial by the Police Magistrate on a charge of having cut the wires of a local concern which was supplying the city with electric light. The case has been a most spectacular one, and before the whole matter is settled, is likely to be followed by a lot of litigation and hard feeling. Mayor Gillett has been very strongly in favor of the city owning its own lighting system, and a bylaw- was passed to provide for it. There arose trouble over the existing system, which was owned by a local company. (Continued on Page Four.)

City Fire Alarm System The City Fire Alarm System is again ill commission. wmu im «m The attempted drive on the part of the Germans, in which they hoped to break the French line near Verdun, has evidently turned out a failure on the part of the Huns. The French were so well entrenched that they turned, the tide against the enemy when the Infantry advance commenced and mowed the Germans down. Paris, Feb. 25.—The French losses in the battle of Verdun have been insignificant as compared with that of the Germans. In describing the fight, the correspondents state that the German artillery preparation for the main wiKwcwiKKHKKiaa-uoiKHraflOBWW^^ infantry attack reached its height' on Tuesday, and was of unparalleled violence. Every inch of ground was searched out and every point where It was thought guns might exist was littered by shells. The preparations of tlie French for the attack were, however, exceedingly well planned. The French infantry was so well sheltered underground, nnd their guns so well hidden, that when the German batteries grew silent and the German infantry j advanced, the Fernchmen sprang up from the holes in the ground and opened a deadly fire with their machine guns. At the same time tho shells of the 75 millimetre guns flew overhead. As a result of this combined fire they mowed down wave after wave of the Germans as they plodded over the snow-covered ground, urged from behind by their officers, revolvers in baud.

Canon Ri.v. in the course of his address said there were men in Prince Rupert, as well as elsewhere, who were not stirred by any feeling of patriotism. These were men who did not care anything for their King or their country. There was still need for men. There never was a time when the call shoulu be more strong.

With British soldiers in France and in every part of tlie Em- 1 ire, ready to back up the demands of the nation. Canon Rix referred to the barbarity of the enemy, which had crucified a Canadian soldier and had butcherea women and children. Rev. Father Bunoz. Rev. Father Bunoz referred to the fact that he might be regarded as a messenger of peace. It was in the cause of peace he came there. He was not in favor of peace at any cost, They were endeavoring to get a peace. The public good—patriotism—was what they sought. They were fighting for justic and for right. Canada was interested in this war t, - ee thai tlie barbarians did not g; i i the advantage. It was up to them to do their full duty. E. P. Spaulding. E P, Spaulding said he came as a brother from across the line, who had served his time as a private in the ranks, and who would have done his part In tiie Spanish war ban there not been too many applying to serve. He said the President of the United States had tried to enforce neutrality on the part of the people of the United States, but their hearts could not be kept out of it. Were he a younger man he would be proud to wear the uniform he saw there and serve with them. He was with them in spirit. It was the duty of every man able to get in to do so. There was at stake a great principle—the principle of civilization. He hoped to see a lot more of the men he saw on the streets get in with "you boys, and I only wish I' could get in." Col. Warden said the city had no ooubt done its share well in sending men to the front. He had, however, noticed about the city many men who were capable to go and enlist. He felt that many of these were not going because they did not realize the needs of the situation. This question of the war, in Flanders, was a serious matter. Canadians were there fighting for principles that the I VMI ACT.

They fought a little different from the British. They were more impetuous and had lost more heavily in consequence. Col. Warden expresed his appreciation for the Americans, and he was glad to liav.

Warden held out no easy time for his men. He told them he was going to get them to Comox as soon as possible, and going to roll six months' work into one month's time, at which the soldiers present sent up hearty applause, indicating that they were ready for it. He described the fighting of the Germans, which he said was in solid formation. They stuck t0 that system. Many men had been turned down on account of eyesight, but a man could be stone blind and yet shoot Germans. Appreciated That Done. He said he appreciated what had been done for his battalion here. He was going to ask a little more. He wanted another 100 men from Prince Rupert, and he believed they coulo be got. He also referred to the fact that about $100 of expenditure had been incurred by the officers here without authority, in order to make the men comfortable. He asked the city to assume that, if the department did not pay it. Col. Warden, who wae greeted with loud applause on rising to speak, was likewise honored as he sat down. Several vocal selections were rendered during the evening. Following the regular programme, the meeting was turned into a smoker, given by the men in honor of Col. Warden.

Charlie in "His New Job" is a two act comedy, filled with laughter producing incidents. The inimitable antics of Charlie are the greatest laugh producers of the year. Ben Turpin, Charlie's pal, proves a good foil for him, for him the comedy star has no respect whatsoever. He pushes his face in, kicks him, slams the swing doors in his face and finally walks on the unfortunate's stomach; in fact he abuses them all. What there is of the plot consists of his coming to a moving picture studio to look for work, but through his queer ways of working and getting into riots is finally thrown out of the studio.
