"The Ninety and Nine.r

1.-The Ninety and Nine" a typical melo-
drama, with something of a religious
flavor, which opened a weeks engagement
at the Bijou theatre last night, is differ
entiated from other plays of It's class
principally by one scene, a scene which
is really an interesting and realistic bit
of stage craft. This scene is in the third
act, when the hero drives a locomotive
through forest fire and rescues the
inhabitants of small town. The loco
motive Is realistic to a degree, and by a
clever manipulation of light effects the
impressions of great speed and devouring
flames are conveyed in a manner that is
far more convincing than one usually
finds in melodrama. Trains have been
used in melodrama from early times to
the present, but as a rule, they fail to
work, buckle up and end in tumble of
scenery. or at best make a burlesdue of
what they are intended to represent.
However, the locomotive in The Ninety
and Nine" will be found worth the at
tention of melodrama patrons.
Otherwise the play is not good av-
erage melodrama although 1t is better in
some spots than in others. The company
is about an average so far as talent goes.
Frederick Montague as Tom Silverton 10
an actor of some ability, and Bayonne
Whipple gave him good support at times,
but the other members of the company
are not conspicuous for talent, with tho
exception of Master Willie Fink, who
plays the part of transplanted New
York street gamin
The play was inspired by Sankey's ia
NOUS hymn, THE Ninety and Nine" 1t
tells the story OF woman who reformed
a drunkard through her great love" and
he turns up hero, although he had been
painted so black Heart interest is
hauled in, and there are some pleasing
bits of comedy. Wrongs are righted, and
there is the usual happy "fnish," with
out which no melodrama could hope II
stand on it's own legs.
s"rhe Ninety and Nine" is like many
other "throbbing'' dramas, and makes .
bid for people who like strenuosity.

BANK ROBBER Is
KILLED At VAULT
A MAN SLEEPING IN THE BUILD

FIT. Worth Tex, January 22.-An un-
Iuccessful attempt was made tonight to
rob the vault of the bank at Montague,
Tex, and this morning, as a result one
Of the robbers is dead and another is be-
lieved to be wounded.
G. M. Bradley who has sleeping apart
ments in the bank building, early this
morning was awakened by the muffled
report of an explosion. On approaching
he room where the vault Is located he
was fred on by parties from within. He
returned the fire, killing one of the rob-
oers. Two of the men ran from the
building, one apparently being wounded.
The robbers are being pursued by posse
who have trailed them to this city. No
money was secured
The man killed has been identified as
Patsy Flanagan, a well known piclpocket
and bank thief of Chicago. He was re-
GENTLY located here and ordered out of

and were interpreted to the very best
advantage. Especially was this so of
those which contributed to the comedy of
the play Bits OF character drawing here
and there make one bubble over with good
humor. Life in Arkansas lends itself read
lily to humorous treatment and Check

witty lines. The Americanisms of the
play "hit the spot 1t is the human
ness of Checkers" and its national flavor

joyable play will be presented In Birmng-

EXTREMISTS IN FINLAND.
Arms Are Secured for so-called Red
Guards.

st. Petersburg, January 22.--Trouble is
looming up in Finland. where the ex-
tremists of the labor party are bent on
causing trouble at any cost. Arms have
oeen procured for the so-called red guards,
and thefts of dynamite to be used In
charging bombs are constantly reported.
This menace Is directed, not against
the Russian government, but against
the moderate element. Even the so-called
democratic party has disowned these
trouble seekers and has issued proca-
nation against stealing and using dyna-
mite and has instituted an investigation
to discover and arrest the perpetrators
of the crimes.

Fire Insurance Reduction.

Another matter OF importance that will
likely engage the attention of the board
tomorrow Will be the proposition of re-
duction of the fire insurance rate in the
city. The board Of trade has had this
question up several times before, and the
City Council has also had its attention
called to the need. with the assurance
of better conditions In the fire department
and the record that has been made in the
matter of fire losses during the past year,
the members OF the board feN that a re-
dueton should be granted, and ii is be-
lleved that by persistent appeals the re-
duetion can be secured.
The proposition OF securing exemption
of city taxes for manufacturing plants
will also be considered. This matter has
been discussed before. and seems to meet
with the wish and approval Of majority
of the members.

Mr.. Clay limited at the possibility of an
agitation of the question of government
ownership of the railroads If attention is
not given to the demand for regulation,
saying:
Sentiment for Government Ownership.
1.-The sentiment has been growing in
favor of government ownership. Mr.
Hearst came within a few thousand votes
of being elected Mayor of the city Of
New York in the last election for Mayor
in that great city. I have never been a
follower of Mr.. Hearst. Who had the
remotest idea of the strong following
which he developed in that race? 1t was
not the man. II was the platform on
which he made his raee-government own
ership. ] do not believe in government
ownership of railroads. I recognize the
fact that the vast number of employees
engaged In the working and building of
these roads would be largely under the
influence Of the party in power in con-
troll of the government. Such power would
enable the party in control of the gov
eminent to hold it for all time to come

ut will not be a difficult task to se-
cure honest intelligent, upright men to
perform this work, and no other kind
ought TO be appointed.
II would repeal the law creating the
commission unless the commission Is
clothed with the power both to investigate
and find what rates are reasonable and
impartial, and at the same time enforce
its findings. 1t Is absurd to have an in
terstate commerce commission constantly
Investigating the railroad rates, know
ing at the same time whatever may be the
findings of the commission in regard to
rates, the commission is without power
to enforce any of its findings. The people
want commission clothed with power
and with a proper and reasonable rate.
and to put that rate in operation. Other
wise the commission is useless. American
people pay annually nearly 5000, oo0, 600
for freight and passenger fares, and yet
