Heath, C.M.C., D.S.O.) and staff officers There were good number of British residents at the station to see the incoming troops whose phy Bique and soldierly bearing was much admired. Despite the great heat of the day and the long and tiresome train journey the troops looked fit and well, and turned out so promptly that within some seven minutes of the train's arrival they were on the platform ready to march away. Detraining was car ried out in the usual smart fashion for which the British army is always distinguished.

"The Thundering Herd" which being shown at the Queen's to- day is another of the. "Covered Waggon" series produced by the Paramount company. Films like this, in which the drama is played on the open plains, have a fascion- tion which is wanting in the regu- lar studio output. They bare, their appeal on what was the original appeal of the cinema, the cowboy and Indian, adventure story. "The Thundering Herd" is far less crude having offered their services, and it though it has many of the same than the early cowboy stories, Appearing, that other persong are desirous of joining as members of elements.

Seven rifle shots were fired into the air by the garrison troops. This proved to be effective in scaring the unruly men away, as the latter all turned back and ran for their lives at the first shot. No casualties have been reported from the dis- turbance.
