City Will Have to Put Streets
to Grade.
Ordinance Requires City Rail-
way to Lower Tracks.

Street Force Will Have to Then

City Engineer and Street Com
missioner Discuss Dilemma.

Because the city railway is laying its
tracks below the present level of the
unpaved streets. and cutting down to
what is called Ordinance grade" the
city will be put to enormous expense for
regarding and excavating on nearly
every street where the company Is
building its track, outside of the paved
district.
In some places. the city railway has
cut its right of way through the center
of the street two feet below the rest of
the street, making a most dangerous
pit; constant menace to the safety OF
the street. The only thing which the
city can do is to grade out all the rest
of the street. 1t will cost the city from
20 to % cents to move every cubic yard
of this dirt, or about 80 cents a wagon
load The expense of the regarding wilt
no doubt vary from $100 to $500 per
block, and it is likely that the city will
have to pay out a total of not far from
$4,000 to accomplish the changes made
necessary by the construction of the
city railway.
OF course the city railway is not to
blame, because it is doing exactly what
the franchise says it shall do, namely,
THE tracks of the Topeka Railway
company shall be laid and kept on the
established grade of the streets c.- ave-
nues as they are now or may hereafter
be established" 1t is not matte1l of

Scores a Hit.
A comedy Of the most clever sort,
With Elizabeth Kennedy in the lead
ing role, supported by Theodore Bah
cock, was thoroughly enjoyed by a
good-sized audience at the Odeon last
evening. Captain Jinks, of the Horse
Marines,' by Clyde Fitch, vas the bill,
and the fact that Fitch is the play
wright responsible for the production,
was a sufficient guarantee of its sue
cess. Captain Jinks. of the Horse
Marines" was written for Ethel Barry
more several seasons ago., and created
a decided hit in the eas The life
depicted is that of New York, in the
early '70's, during the Grant-Greeley
campaign. Miss Kennedy portrays
Nine. T%rentoni, an Italia operate
star, and the story starts with her arr
rival at the New York harbor to make
her debut on the American stage. A
pretty love story is woY into mar
ration from the beginning. Captain
links becoming enamored3o of the singer,
upon meeting her at the harbor. The
usual trials are encountered, n love,
of course, finally triumphs. The prin-
cipal love scene, in the second act. is
prettily told, not overdrawn, and is
very pleasing. The play is unlike any
thing in many ways ever before writ
ten, and is the more enjoyable on that
account. The principal characters are
in excellent hands. and the support
is above the average Noticeably
prominent in the supporting company
are Charlotte Lambert and Grace Bar
ton.
