A POLICE COMMISSION.
The Views of One Man Who Has
Been Mentioned.

At the Monday night session the Com
mon Council passed resolution directing
the city solicitor TO apply to the General
Assembly and secure the passage OF bill
which will give TO this city the right to
place its police department in charge OF
a board of commissioners. II is not
new scheme in Providence by any means,
but the action of the Council was prac-
tically the first step taken to bring it
about.
The only man who has been "men-
tioned'' SO far, as a candidate for posi-
tiion on the proposed board is ex-Mayor
Charles Sydney Smith, and the sugges-
tion of his name meets with general ap-
proval.
Ex-Mayor Smith defined his views In
this matter in his inaugural address of
1891, which contains the following:
"The police department. Is one which
requires a most careful oversight and
management. Its efficiency has been rec
ognized by our people, and its standing
bears favorable comparison with similar
departments in other cities.
"There exists, however, as II seems to
me, q condition which, as changes occur
in the department, will from the man
per in which appointments are at present
made, tend to weaken the morals OF the
force. and lessen the reputation II now
sustains. refer to the appointment OF
ment by and With the approval OF the
Mayor and Aldermen and their removal
in the same manner. The objection to
this is that appointments being made in
reality by the Mayor and Aldermen,
there is liability Of political influence
having somewhat TO do wit b securing
position upon the force and judgment to
the proper qualifications of an applicant
is liable to be biased. In the removal OF
an officer the same undue influences may
be brought TO bear upon the Mayor d
Aldermen to secure his restoration o. re-
tention in the department.
"In my opinion 1t would be better to
have the department under the direction
of q commission, and appointments and
removals made subject to its approval.
The executive duties could be vested In
the chief OF police as now, but the gener-
al charge and management Of the depart
ment should be under the supervision
and control of a commission"
The ex-Mayor says today that he holds
the same opinion which he officially ex-
pressed five years ago.

GUS HEEGE'S NEW PLAY.
A Few Items of Interest Apent the New
Anglo-Swedish Comedy.

A member of the NEWS staff chanced
TO meet Gus Heege in the corridor of the
NarraganseIt hotel yesterday. Mr. Heege
is we'll known to the American tbeater-
going public as the creator OF the Swedish
character as a stage type. He has occu-
pied this unique field for seven seasons
without q successful competitor, and his
"Yon Yonson' has become favorably
known from Portland, Maine, to Port
land, Oregon.
"a great deal depends on the title OF
play" said Mr.. Heege, speaking of a
for a happy and appropriate title for my
new comedy, found the task far more
difficult than the construction OF the
play itself. After my success with 'Yon
Yonson' the theatrical field was invaded
by throng OF 'Ole Olesons,' Peter
Petersons,' LARS Larsens' and so on,
until there wasn't mothers son left.
"This put the selection of Swedish
name as a title out of the question for my
purpose.
''For weeks racked my brain in pursuit
of my object until my day thoughts were
haunted by visions or grotesque titles and
my nights made wretched by shattered
wrecks of the alphabet that limped to my
bedside on crutches and leered Liieously
at my futile efforts.
"Suddenly, like a happy inspiration,
"A Yenuine Yentleman' came to me.
The adaptability OF the title caught me
OF once, through its euphony and the
soft 'G's' which could be turned to
'Y's' to give the characteristic Swedish
sound
GAS 10 the play itself, the less say OF
II the better as / prefer to leave judg
ment as TO its merits or dement's to the
Providence public, which has always
treated me with cordiality and more than
fairness.
"It may be Of interest to know that the
character of 'Ex-minister Castle in
my new play was suggested by my ac-
quaintance with the Hon. W. W. Thomas
for many years minister to Sweden and
consul at one time TO Gothenburg, Swe-
den-one OF the war-consuls appointed by
Aprah Lincoln. The strike and riot
incident in the third act is based on oc-
