 lent Attempts to Get Increase.
 Washington, Nov. 21.-Acting First Assistant Postmaster Generally John ]. HowIey, in his annual report to the Postmaster General, issued today, rec views the efforts made by the depart meth to suppress tendency at certain offices to resort to alleged irregular and fraudulent methods to increase re" ceipts in order to secure an increase in the salary of the postamasters with the leldding has occurred at amall of- fees located near large cities and con- sisted in the sale of large quantity of stamped paper to persons engaged in business and handling their mail in offices other than who're they buy their stamps.
 The campaign against these irregu- larities Mir. Howley said, has resulted in the reduction of salaries in about forty offices and in a few instances, in regulating the offices to lower grades. Regarding the, practice of detailing postofice clerks to serve on civil ser vice district boards, MT. Howley says;
 'I am strongly of opinion that pro- vision should be made in the law for the appointment and pawn Alt by the civil service commission of such Wn- ployes and that the postal services be relieved of this expense. Postmasters object to paying clerks for services not connected with the postonices."
 Twenty postoffice employees are em' ployed O nthis work.

"why He Divorced Her.,,

A large and enthusiastic audience at the Bijou Theatre last niRnt saw one of the best melodramic plays ever presented in that playhouse.
 Why He Divorced Her" The play Is held down by author and players 50 as not to give the audience a shock or fear or delight every minute In this It Is more. effective than plays of like character The highly dramatic climaxes of Why He Divorced Her" are built naturally and intelligently. Consequently they are not monoto- nous.
 The audience last night was happi- ly surprised by the performance. 1saev expected a pleasing exposition of this style of play but they did not expect to see company of such high grade players as are included in the cast of Why He Dirorced Her." at least six of the large company showed de- cided ability in the handling of their parts.
 The story of the play points to a strong moral It deals with a man of the world and a girl whom he mas wronged. From the first. the sympa- . thy of the audience was aroused and the interest was held steadily until the drop of the last curtain.
 Four acts of five scenes were shown The scenic equipment was appropriate which gave an excellent background for the action of the play and greatly enhanced the merit of the production. It Is seldom one sees a company of this class in Montgomery with such handsome scenic appurtenances frederick Sheldon. the man of the world, and bad one at that was nor trayed in clever style by Harry Dris- cole. MT. Driscole made his william detestable enough to the audience to be severely hissed whenever anyone foiled ono of his dastardIy schemes. He is an actor of ability and appeared better than any other male member of the cast, although Horace Ewing fin the character part of William Booth Anderly, tragedian. did excellent | work.
 Barry, elevator boy. a juvenile role. was nicely done by Robert Cunning ham in a way to draw frequent ap- plause.
 Miss Lorna Elliott in the leading female part of Doris Hastings, a mar rled ana divorced woman, proved her self to be an actress fully capable of portraying the character assigned to her. She acted with cleverness and discretion and combined naturalness with her acting.
 Miss Geraldine Russell portrayinR a wronged girl, is also an actress of some ability. Her work at all times was good and pleasing
 As the female partner of the vIl- llan' a woman of no character or prin- oipie' the work of Miss Alice Daven- port was especially good. Nils Dav- enport used her voice and face in ex- pressing her emotions and never over stepped the picture
 The other members of the cast rave good support to the principals and contributed in their respective parts 'o @ the success of the entertainment.
 Why He Divorced Her" will be pre- sented again at matinee today aoa again tonight. It would seem that en- tertainments of this character would popularize the little family theatre.
