ELECTION OF OFFICERS.
CITY COUNCIL WILL MEET IN JOINT
CONVENTION TONIOHT.
Detective Haberlin to Be Given q Hearing By
the Committee on Police.

Much interest is manifested In the meet
ing of the City Council this evening, when
both branches will meet in joint conven-
tion for the election of city officers for the
ensuing year.
Last evening it was rumored that there
would be no joint convention for the rea-
son that there was disagreement among
certain combinations, but this afternoon
those in a position say there that the
solons will surely meet jointly and pro-
ceed with the election.
From indications there will be few
changes In the personnel Of the various
departments of the city govepnment.
There is little doubt as stated in these
columns last week, that Loren q. Ladd
will be reelected Commissioner OF Pub
lie Works and that William II. Barclay
would be his successor.
The predicted changes in the City En-
gineer and law departments will hardly
materialize, 80 the knowing ones say,
although 1t is difficult to make any posi-
tive statements of just what changes will
be effected in the shuttle.
The matter of making a contract with
the Pawtucket Electric Company for light
ing the streets of the city will come up and
be effected, the Committee on Street Lights
being favorably disposed toward contract
for this term of years, believing that 1t
would be for the best interests of the city
from a financial standpoint.

Nine. Odilou, an Austrian Actress,
has Won the Britishers' Heart.
London, July 90 Even in the summer,
entirely out Of season, London Graves a
sensation. and what it Graves 1T gener-
ally gets. This year the sensation came
with Maaaue Odilon from Vienna. In her
native country IF Austria Madame 0dilon
is considered wonderful actress and IN
London she was considered a sensation.
Augustin DAILY was responsible for the
austrian actress presence in the English
capital A few weeks ago she played an
engagement there under Mr.. Daly's man
accment and at his theater in Leicester
Square.
There may have been more pronounced
sensations in London than that created by
Madame OdiIon, but that she was one is
proved conclusively by the fact that with
Madame Sarah Bernhardt and Madame
Reiane both playing engagements in rival
houses at the same time, she was more
talked about and more written about than
both OF them put together.
Her engagem ent at Days was brief
one, but it was long enough for the play
goers to ask her to return, and she has
has promised to do so.
Madame Helen Odilon, in her own
country and in Russia a, is called the
Austrian Duse," and while in London,
the English critics, with almost one ac-
cord, hkened her art to that OF the great
Italian actress. She is said to possess
all the power and intensity Of the Ital-
an woman and at the same time in the
lighter of her plays the wichery and
wonlanly coquetry of Ada Rehan.
She was born and educated in Vienna,
and at an early age began her stage
career. Although she appeared in num-
Der of plays in the French capital, her
professional debut was made at the Court
Theater at st. Petersburg. Theresh scor ed
an immediate success, and ever since has
played a yearly engagement there, and
is as great fayorite as in Berlin Or her
own home.
Her success In other continental cities
has been equally pronounced, and once
when playing at the Kursaal Theater in
Ems she made such an impression upon
the Emperor William 1 that after the.
performance he personally commanded her
to accept an engagement at the Royal
Theater in Berlin, and while filling it she
received the personal congratulations OF
the Emperor and Empress. and the royal
princes.
Her method is said to be charming and
her style most finished. In London she
selected as the play to introduce her light
and rnirthful comedy, translated from
Italian into German by Herr Otto Eisen-
schultz.
'Untreu" is the title of the comedy, and
although possessing only the fimsiest of
plots, Ii tells, in three short acts, bubbling
with life and action, the storyof woman,

practfcing this exercise are TO incline

movements are to alternate. first with
