This action was brought by the city for
the purpose of procuring a judgment Of

its officers from interfering with the poles
and wires OF the Missouri and Kansas
Telephone company upon the streets and

has been rendered in said action as asked
by compliments. An appeal was taken
therefrom by the city to the court of

brought by the Rock Island Lumber and

city to belong to said city and collected
by the board of police commissioners.
The case has been tried twice in the
supreme court; the last time on appeal

trict court of aHrvey county. on Febru-
airy 8, 1904 the judgment of she district

Kansas. The above judgment has been
satisfied
The foregoing is a list of the cases
now pending and that have been dis
posed of by the legal department. of the
city since the report of my predecessor
was submitted. The matters which come
up before our courts for adjudication
constitute but a small part Of the work
of this office To enter into the detail
work of the department would unneces-
sarily prolong this report and mention
Of the more important ordinances, con-
tracts and improvements is probably not
advisable, as these matters have all re-
ceived the attention of this body.
One matter of importance should prob
ably be mentioned a. this time 1t was
the general understa ndi1g at the time
work was commenced along the Little
river that the property necessary TO be
graded would be donated to the city. This
has been done with the exception of
four ~ tracts. Unless the conveyance
of these tracts can be obtained il may
he necessary TO abandon this work be-
tween jefferson and Forest avenues.
This matter should receive the immediate
attention of the committee having this
improvement in charge.
Respectfully submitted.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
THEATRICAL


W f. Nankesille's beautiful play Of
the Arkansas hills, Human Hearts
was presented 10 large audience al
the Traders Grand Opera House satur.
day night. The play is a poetical pas.
toral and it pleased and satisfied the
audience that had gathered 10 witnes.
t. Notwithstanding the tact that two.
thirds Of those present haa seen 1t some
time or some place within the past nine
or ten years.
The plot centers around the village
blacksmith, who marries a wicked adj
ventures. Is unjustly accused of his
fathers murder and goes to prison for
life-a plot that has been worked out
by playwrights for the past haif-eentury.
The play deals of the simple life of
the hcnely people of rural Arkansas.
The SCENERY and costumes and players
all combined to make the different scenes
true to the original conception of the
story.
The company Is rather good one.
There was only one thing that married
the natural, even smoothness Of the
piece and that was the painful hesitation
INDUCED in by the speaker after getting
rid Of gallery god applause cue. When
one Of them had rung in something
about you ca,t strike me, punish me,
kin me, but don'r you dare say anything
about my dear old mother" he, or she.
would stop, look up TO The gallery gods
in the back OF the house and await the
applause, The hesitation was too
marked and spoiled the whole play.
Probably if there han not been so much
hesitation there would not have been 50
much unnecessary applause. But the
piece abounds with this sort OF climax
business and we suppose it was done ac-
cording 10 the lines.
