Legislators What
They Wanted.
Akron Delegation Lob.
bied lndustriously.
Legislators Learned Things They
Didn't Know.
Especial Correspondence.)

Columbus, o., Feb. 6.-"Akron's wa
ter rights must be protected This
was the slogan of the delegation of
| citizens from the Rubber City which
descended on the Seventy Fifth Gen
eral Assembly bright and early yes
| terday morning that is bright and
early for the Legislators. Incidental
ly the members of the delegation had
n few minor war crys, relating to
bond issue, and n new municipal
code, but it was the water rights slo-
gan that was heard the most frequent
ly and the loudest.
The delegation was headed by Judge
George NJ. Anderson, and he led his
forces right into the Hobbies Of the
House and Senate, despite the rules
that outsiders shall not be allowed
in the obbics while the Legislature
is in session Then every member OF
the delegation got busy and in short
time the statesmen knew more about
Akron and what her citizens want
than they ever knew before.
Senator Archer, of Belmont, who
is the father of the bill dedicating the
Licking and Lewiston reservoirs as
public parks; Senator Harris, of Ash.
tabula, Representative Buchtel, of
Summit county. and York, of ottawa,
accompanied the delegation to dinner
at the Chittcndcn, and after dlnnei
an informal meeting was held, n,
which Judge Anderson explained to
the Legislators what Akron wanted
and stated that Il bill providing that
when the canal is abandoned by the
state that that part of it between the
feeder and lock u shall revert to Ak
ron for water and sewer purposes,
had been drawn, and would be intro
. duccd by Representative Buchtel. The
Legislators who We're present OK
! pressed themselves that they were Of
, the opinion that Akron's water rights
/ should certainly be protected and said
they would 90 what they could to see
that they were protected. Late this
afternoon Representative Buchtel in
troduced the bill.
This does not mean however, that
the bill to be introduced, will have
smooth sailing. There are a number
of corporations that would be mighty
glad to get hold Of the canal, some
of them so that the tow path can he
used for electric railroads, and some
for other purposes, and these corpora
tlons are not going to see any munic-
ipallty get even as much of the canal
Strange as II may seem. these same
corporations seem to have some in
tlucnce with some of the Legislators,
either direct or through certain of the
members or officers of the Board OF
Public Works, and the Canal Commis-
sion who seem to be considerably in
tercsted In the welfare of certain cor
porations. 1t will take work TO pro-
cure the passage of the proposed bill.

The Famous Actress
Has Resigned
Her Place.

London, Feb. 6.-Thc date of Mrs.
James Brown Pottcr's departure for
the United States has not yet been
settled upon nor is it likely that she
can sail within the week. Although
freed from her professional engage
ments by her resignation of the role
Of Calypso in stephen Phillips "Ulys-
ses" at Her Majesty's theater, Mrs.
Potter is held by the necessity Of sign
ing certain papers bearing upon i'm
portant financial interests. Before leav-
Ing Europe Mrs. Potter will go to
Paris to see her sister, Mrs. Duval.
1t was agreed some months ago that
within a short time she was to meet
her mother, Mrs. Urquhart, and her
aunt, who are now in San Francisco.
If the London engagement had contin-
ued Mrs. Urquhart and her sister
would have made the 6,000-mle trip
to England from the Pacific coast,
but this will not now be necessary.
Mrs. Potter is looking forward with
great interest to her coming visit She
expects, however, to return here in
time for the coronation of King Ed
