THROUGH A SWITCH ORDINANCE.
Loan of S40,O0O-Before the
Works Board.

President Grail was absent from the reg
ular meeting of the City Council last night
and Vice President Megrew handled the
gavel. The meeting was not a lengthy one,
as a discussion arose to suspend the rules
to pass ordinance granting permission
to the Mccormick Manufacturing Company
to lay switch to warehouse to
be constructed on South Capitol avenue.
Those who were opposed to such speedy
action moved to adjourn and ii was quickly
seconded and carried The Board of Works
had withdrawn a former ordinance from
the railroad committee to make changes
and the new ordinance had not been acted
said they were willing to make a favorable
report. Other councilmen did not the
necessity of such speedy action. The new
ordinance was referred to the committee
or railroads.
City Controller Johnson sent an ordinance
to the Council recommending a temporary
lean of $4,000 to meet January bills. IL
was referred to the finance committee The
city controllers annual report was ordered
spread upon the records. Mayor Taggart
returned the ordinance providing for the
Improvement of West New York street
from Walter to Lansing streets with his
signature affixed: The railroad committee
reported fayOrably on the ordinance grant
ing the Big -Four right to maintain a switch
crossing Astor and Ohio streets. The ordi-
nance was read the second time, engrossed.

The bohemian BurIesquers.

Since becoming a star, Billie B. Van.
chief comedian of the Bohemian Bur-
lesouers which began a three-days en-
pire Theater, has ceased to a great extent,
to produce the comedy which he did in pre-
vious visits to this city. In past seasons
when he was accompanied by his wife,
vevie Nobriga, they always put a great
amount of ginger into their acts which
kept the house In an uproar while they
were on the stage.
Van is surrounded with a good strong
chorus this season which he utilizes, espec-
tally I'm the last burlesque where some
good singing is done. The same chorus
does nice cake-walk scene in the opening
burIesque, but that is married by the con-
tinual screaming of the members who
might have made greater hit If they had
spent the time in singing.
The opening burletta THE Jayville SAM
tarium.' is the same as produced here be-
fore. but the work of Mr.. Gardner, who
come up TO that previously done by Van
The part of Lena now being played by
Mae Hiliard is done creditably. Bobpie
North Is also with the show but does not
appear at his best which is an interpreta-
ton of a Jewish character.
In the olio Fred Wycoff recites a number
of jokes which have preceded him. The
three Lane Sisters have a neat singing
and dancing act. Johnson * Hlnard are
best in their Bowery act. The three Gard
ners are funny in their musical turn. The
Casino Comedy Four is made UP or three
men, two of whom do the singing.
In the last burlesque "A Scrambled Egg.
Billie Van is guilty of the worst lot or
suggestiveness that has been heard at TINS
theater this season.

recent slump in the market had taken
the firm rather suddenly and that few of
their customers made good their mar
gin. Mr.. Potter, of the failed firm, is said
10 be the ex-president of the Maverick
Bank of Boston, which failed several years
age. Mr.. Potter later announced that the
firm had made a general assignment to
Walter X Griffin, a lawyer. The firm had
pretentious offices here and branch in
Chicago.
BY measures introduced last night in the
Chicago City Council meeting Ii was pro-
posed TO secure adequate service from the
traction companies and also to compel the
payment of compensations which the city
has been unable 10 collect. Mayor Harri-
son recommended the withdrawal of one
franchise-that of the Chicago General
Street-railway COmpany-and an order
was presented which aimed to refuse all
further permits TO the three companies
until they had settled claims with the city,
the companies being the Union TRACTION,
Lake-street Elevated and the Metropolitan
Elevated Companies.

The divorce evil seems TO grow with

in the State of Ohio last year. We agree
that there are faults on both sides, but the
great problem is: Are those faults remedi-
able? To great extent there il no doubt
