August last, when Frost tendered Prestlien an acknowledgment on Giscome Spruce Mills stationery and u cheque drawn on the same concern. The cheque was returned on account of no funds.
The defendant claimed the ac knowledgment should have been made out in the name of A. C. FrO9t Inc., the mistake being on the part of the clerk, and that Frost, being president of both companies, did not notice the error. They also claimed that payments on orders had been made.
Judge Cahler gave a verdict with costs in favor of the plaintiff for tho full amount, the registrar to be referee as to whether orders had been paid before or subsequent to the settlement.
P. E. Wileon appeared for trie plaintiff and W. O. Fulton, of Prince Rupert, for the defence.
The regular meeting of the G. W. ?. A. wa9 held in the club rooms on Monday evening last.—There wai a good attendance and two new; mem* berB were accepted. It was decided that the club would <not instal a radiophoneJaa it was understood that six would be. operating in town. The members felt that the Association should co-operate as far as possible with the Boy Scouts, chiefly in order to foster the spirit of patriotism among the younger generation. To this end it was arranged' to loan the hall to the boys for their supper and party to be held on Jan. 26tn.
A vote of thanks was extended to the Ladles' Auxiliary for the excel* lent banquet which took place at'the latter end of December..

At the close of the regular G. W. A^-A^~meeting—on~Monday~ evening last, P. C. Coates,  principal of   the' high school, gave an interesting lee-j ture on chemistry and,science, along,; with   demonstrations,   in   which'  he waa ably assisted by Bobby Wilson. ; Both the lecture' and demonstrations j were  very interesting, the methods] of creating various gases, and their \ effects, especially    so    to    returned j men, who have had experience with j them  at the front.     Those  present i showed their interest by asking many • questions.
The president, at the close of the j lecture, thanked Mr, Coates on behalf of those present. ,  He said   he ! was prlad to  know that the    school, b'oard has been very liberal.  Considering finances available, in providing material, as  the "machinery"  itself1 looked rather crude to him.    He assured   Mr.   Coate» that  his lecture tiad been very instructive.
Dr. A1 ward said, as one who had both taught and studied chemistry, be appreciated the benefit such a course of study was to the cehildrerw r!e said it was not a question so much of equipment aa material's far ^"experiments- afid demonstrations were concerned, and he also was glad to know that the school was assisted as much %» possible.

The members of the G. W. V. A. would like it more generally under* stood that the lectures which take place each month, after the regular meeting, and starting at 9 o'clock, are open to the general public, who will be warmly welcomed.

Don't, forget the whist drive under the auspices of the Ladies' Auxiliary of the G. W. V. A., in the club rooms tonight. The small sum of 50 cents is charged, and this includes refreshments.
Game Warden VanDyk recently confiscated some beaver and rat skins taken from Messrs*. Geo. ;A. Woolsey and "Slim" Cowart, which he claimed were takei.¦: out of aea« son. The two trappers came into town the end of the week of their, own accord to have the trouble .straightened up, and on Monday were fined $200 and costs by Stipendiary Magistrate Herne.
