The dialogue Is bright and crisp. the

iudicrous ana many of them highly dra-
matte. As Chauney Short. the .,xilded

roar Of laughter almost perpesaalsy. which
Is What his audiences expect and demand
Of him. There Is no lack Of faa to drive
away the blues. but Chauney also drops
into pathos At certain points. and il Is here
that the genuine artistic genius Of the
actor is shown. He has 3 real rover over
the feelings Of his audience as he exerts
over their risihilitses. He makes them
laugh and cry in . breath. and this versa
tiiity Is the test of the true artist. "A
Giided Fool" is not . one part play. a are

Goodwin has the confidence Of the real
artist. and is not afraid 20 have company
around him tha; can do good work. In
his new play nearly every member of his
organization has q character that is worth
doing we'll. and il is done well. Miss
Mabel Amber. the leading lady of the
company, has made . strong individual
success, as has Miss Minnie Dupree. the
charming souhrette of the organization.
The play is admirably staged. and the

Portland Cement Man ufacturer's Promo.
ALTON Not Accented.

The Portland cement works scheme
seems TO have dropped out of sight. r. e.
Jordan. the Vancouver. b. C.. man who
proposed to start such an Industry sin or
near the city Of Seattle" seems to have
forfeited the confidence of the members OF
the Chamber of Commerce, to whom the
c,ty council, first approached. referred the
matter, in that he wants too much. II
seems that Jordan had made a canvass
among tho business men to the end that
. Join. stock company be formed, and at
one time it looked IS If the plans would
be carried out. rs they seemed feasible.
and from Jordan's calculations showed
immense profits to accrue from the indus
try. The amount Of money necessary to
carry out the plans was too large for indi-
viduais TO take hold of. besides the city, il
was thought, would be willing to give a
bonus to the plant
The city council, before which the plans
were laid. referred the whole affair to the
Chamber Of Commerce, which, upon in
vessigating. found Jordan wanted "a site
for the plant and capital to build it,
he giving his experience and lending
his peculiar process" for which he claims
he ''ean manufacture quality Of Portland
cement equal In quality 10 that specified
in any public works of Europe or America
for not exceeding s. per barrel" and that
from raw materials procurable within
easy distance Of Seattle"
At Jordan's request committee con
sissing of Jacob Furth, J. A. Gould. W. X.
Ballard, NJ. ii. Young and L. r. Sweeney
were appointed TO meet and hear further
arguments but the committee il appears
were all IN about the frame of mind OF Mr..
Fursh, who remarked: Seattle is very
deslrous Of securing every sort of industry
that will tend TO build mp her commerce
and keep her in the front rank of Western
cities. but what Seattle needs more mar
tscularly is capi.al--we have lots OF brains
and TO spare at home"-hence the com.
insitee did not meet Mr. Jordan.

The committee appointed to look up q
suitable site for an artesian well as .
source Of water supply tor city purposes
recommended the intersection Of Wells
and Salmon Bay streets a. the most suit
able and most beneficial for the city. They
also recommended that bids for . contract
20 sink an artesian well be advertised and
the contract be iet to the loWest bidder
A Recommendation that q stand pipe b
erected in connection with the proposed
we'll was inserted in the report. The re-
port was accepted and the committee dis
charged. Agsneral discussion Of artesian
wells then followed, Councilman Frazer,
Shirtiid, Curtiss and Mcdonald, City
Engineer s. X. Smith and Mr.. Wood, an
artesian we'll expert. taking part therein.
For the last four years the city councils of
Ballard have discussed the question of 3
water supply. but have never succeeded
in going beyond discussion. The mill
owners became tired Of waiting for the
city to construct water system and built
one of their own to Lake Union along the
tide fats Of Salmon bay. and the c,ty lost
Q large monthly revenue. The council
men have now reached . conclusion that
the only source Of supply IL by artesian
wells. and that the best place 70 sink .
test well 10 in the north part Of tho city,
although City Engineer Smith stated that
he though the pressure would not be suffi-
cient to raise the water to the surface in
such an elevated section and favored sink
ing well In the southern part Of the city,
at . lower altitude and nearer the. mills.
where fuel could be procured without
cost. lie thought the proposed site would
De too costly and the quality Of the water
would BE- no different. The city engineers
advice was. however, disregardsd and the
discussion brcughrto close by the coun-
Gil passing . resolution instructiDg .he
committee on public grounds and build
ings to secure by purchase or by bond a
piece Of ground near Salmon Bay Park
and Wells street on which to sink q test

ing against the resolution.
H. B. Peterson. L. NJ. Wood, Thomas
Winsor, A. Z. Aud and Theodore Tiede-
mann were nominated for councilman in
place Of w. T. Mcvay. resigned. Mr..
Wood was elected on the fourth ballot.
Tho city attorney was instructed to
draw up au ordinance making every Tues
day OF the month a regular meeting of the
council. Hitherto the council has met in
regular session twice month. on the first
and third Tuesdays of the month, but the
business Of the city has increased 50 much
that the councilmen we're frequently en-
gagged until long past midnight in DIS
patching it. Hence the change.
