now searching for the jealous literary gentleman, with the intentof putting an end to him and to his emotional career.
 Of course the nobleman is enraged that Lady Lumley should be made a tool of by this designing foreigner, and he at once decides to put stop to any intimacy between the two. Lady Lunn- ley returns from dinner, given in
 honor of her birthday, dinner which
 her own husband had not thought nec- essary to attend, but at which D'Orelli had tried to make up for the absence of the spouse, and is commanded by
 her lord and master not again to re- ceive the Italian.
 Then Lord Lumley goes off for for
 eign parts for couple of months, con fident that his mandate will be obeyed
 Lady Lumley, usually so meek and willingly docile, cannot stand that her
 husband should have felt called upon to speak to her so and in her wrath
 rises to unsuspected heights of will fulness, engages in acts of imprudence a less innocent woman would have
 avoided. She sees D'Orelli again and
 again, and even consents to go ito his rooms.
 It is in D'Orelli's chambers thatLord Lumley on his return finds his wife Tn this scene we see the cold man of science transformed into clever, cap able man of the world We get also a glimpse of the husbands love for his wife, of strength and faith sufficient to win her back to his side. The word- fencing between Lord Lumley and
 D'Orelli makes very pretty duel, of kind much more effective than that i'll
 which steel blades gleam. Before the
 curtain falls the wife forgives and is forgiven, the villain is routed and the
 usual virtuous and happy termination is brought about.

Warden and Burgesses Meet Special
 Policeman Asked to Be Dropped.
 The board of warden and burgesses held regular monthly meeting II Ine baruuyn court room last evening War den Sghatfer was absent and Senlor hurgess smith presided. The other hnreesses present were RansloW, West brook. .lacKson, Mills and Kenney. The monthly reports of Health Officer Smidh and Chief of Police Schmidt were read and accepted. A communi- cation was received from II. J. Nor throp asking that he be dropped from tha list of special policemen on account of old age. The board voted to grant his request and Michael T. Clancy was appointed a special policeman to fill the vacancy left by the resignation or MT Northrop. The members of the Highland Avenue Sewer association objected to the enormous sewer assess merlt imposed upon them. It was the sense of the meeting that as more com munications are sure to come in in re- gard to this matter the communication was voted tabled. There are many more cases in town similar to that or the Highland Avenue association This association some years ago built at their own and great expense private sewers Latter on the borough built public sanitary sewers and the private sewers were of course ordered discon- tinuad To connect with this sewer residents are assessed $25. and they believe that this amount, exhorbitant in itself is doubly so when the expense they were Dut to in building the pri- vate sewer is reckonet1 in with it. The remainder of tho meeting was occ1rDied hv the matter of sewer assessments on North Main street.

SETTLEMENT PREDICTED.
Hopeful Feeling at Washington Re-
 Garding Venezuelan Case.

Hopeful Feeling at washin gton Re-
 garding Venezuelan Case. WASHINGTON, Feb. 4.-There are as yet no advices from the allied gov ernments respecting the nature of the 1 next proposal they will submit to MT. Bowen, Venezuela's representative, for n settlement of their claims, but there is good authority for the statement that the note of Nr. Bowen addressed to the British ambassador will result in an adjustment of the trouble.
 At the British embassy an important conference of the representatives of the allies here was held among them selves yesterday. Mr. Bowen of course was not present. The conference was called to consider the recommendations which the Italian and British ambas- sadors and the German minister should make to their governments as to the next step to be taken.
 As result of this conference the for eign offices at London, Berlin and Rome are in possession of suggestions which if adopted will mean the success of the Washington negotiations and the raising of the blockade The allied powers have been again requested by their representatives to consent to pri- ority of payment of their claims for a limited period only and equality of all claimant nations thereafter. MT. Bow en has stated that he is willing that the allies receive preferential treat ment for one month if at the end of that time all the claimant nations be placed on an equal basis as to time and proportionate payments.
 1t is the conviction of one of the ne- gotiators at least that this proposition of MT. Bowen is eminently fair. 1t in- wolves a compromise of the powers original request for six years preferen- tial treatment, but will enable them to retain part at least of their prestige. The feeling is growing that persist ence in their present position can re- suit only in loss of prestige for the all lies and bad feeling against them not only in Venezuela, but elsewhere throughout the Americas.
 Confidence that settlement will be forthcoming at Washington in short time is based to a considerable extent on the activity of Baron Speck von Sternburg. He has given every evil dence that he sincerely wants the dis pute adjusted without prolonging the blockade and unnecessarily coercing Venezuela while at the same time pre- serving the prestige and rights of the allies.

 Not being personally acquainted with British lord, perhaps we are in no position to pick even the few flaws we consider exist in MT.

One critic thus amusingly describes the Ameri- can atmosphere that elings about the star and company in ''The Mummy and the Running Bird":
 Mir. Drew's Americanism is too pro- nounced to enable him to appear Brit ish. Voice, face, manner, garments, walk--all of these things, as MT. Drew has them, are American, not British.
