Theatrical Notes

Miss Crosman is probably the mos
popular actress coming to Paducah,
and her audience of last night was
but an additional evidence Of the
esteem in which she is held. For
Holy week, 1t was a large audience.
and its measure of appreciation was
full to the brim point.
Her play this season, MARY,
Mary. Quite Contrary" is not a.
good a vehicle as mistress Nell or
THE Sword of the King" in which
play Miss Crosman was seen here on
her other visits, but 1t Is a bright,
clever comedy, with some very anus
ing situations, and opportunities In
plenty for Miss Crosman to display
her buoyant, vivacious talents. She
is as handsome as ever. and romps
through her scenes with the same
girlish spirit. the keen, deft touches
of humor that first brought her into
prominence.
Her audience last night appre
ciated her work, and showed II. AT
the end of the second act she was
given three curtain calls and all dur
ing the play her work was well re-
ceived.
Miss Crosman always has a good
company, and the organization with
her this year is up to her standard.
Boyd Putnam. her leading man, is a
finished actor and his work last
night bespeaks his gifts. The other
parts of the play were in capable
hands, too.

BUILD storm SEWERS

Under a provision OF the charter,
storm sewers can be constructed and
the expense levied against the abut-
ting property owners. The council
should take up the question of build
ing storm water sewers everywhere
they are necessary. as IL would be a
wise sanitary and a good economic
measure. In numerous places
throughout the city there is INSULT
cient drainage for the storm water
which results in overfiowed cutters
and sometimes big washouts of the
streets, which is a nuisance in the
first instance, and an expense in the
latter. Heretofore IL has been con-
tended that the city had to bear the
expense of the sewers, but this is an
error.
Section 3105 of the charter says
the general council shall have the
power to construct sewers, and may
assess the entire cost to an amount
not exceeding one dollar a front
foot upon the lots or lands abutting
or bounding the streets or alleys on.
or under. which the sewers are to be
constructed. This is due authority
and the matter should be taken up
by the council as soon as advisable
We are seeking to make Paducah
as healthy as possible, and the con
struction of storm sewers would sup
plement the other movements toward
that end, on foot now.

ANTI-INJUNCTION BILL

Washington. d. c., April IL
Representative Stanley Tuesday in
troduced an anti-injunction bill. II
governs contemplated proceedings
generally in the federal courts and
provides that no agreement, combi-
nation or contract between two or
more persons to perform or not to
perform any act or to cause II TO be
performed or not performed shall be
deemed criminal. nor shall any re-
straining order be issued in refer
ence thereto unless the act concern
ing which said confederation or
agreement is made would be crime
II committed by one person.
This is the kind of an anti-injunc-
ton measure advocated by Presi-
dent Gompers, of the American Fed
Grafton, and other labor leaders.

Responding to an urgent appeal
made by republicans and democrats
alike, The Sun presents plain
statement of fact in regard to James
b. Towards stricken family.
James b. Howard Is now confined
in the penitentiary. where he will
serve life sentence, having been
convicted of the murder OF William
Goebel, five years ago.
Mrs. James b. Howard and her
three little children are the innocent
victims of the predicament Mr.. How
ard finds himself placed in by pro-
cess of law. For five years this he
roic woman has labored INCREASINGLY,
and never without hope, to secure a
vindication for her husband. Their
little home has been swept into the
legal maelstrom. and today they are
dependent on charity for the Clothes
they wear, aud even for the brea :
they eat.

A thunderstorm struck Pittsburg
Monday afternoon, accompanied by
downpour of rain sufficient to give
the Ohio another coalboating stage
at that point. The river there rose
several feet in a few hours, and on
Tuesday morning there was close to
Is feet at Davis Island Dam. Some
of the more sanguine Pittsburg river
men are of the opinion that a 20
foot stage will be reached. The fall
at Cincinnati continues, and yester-
day morning there was about 2S
feet of water in the channel at the
Queen City. II is hardly expected
that the rise at the headwaters VIII
be noticeable here or at Cincinnati.

ment.

WORK ON THE NEW STREETS

The board of public works will
meet this afternoon. II has good
deal OF work on hand and will con-
slider much of II today.
The question of cleaning the
streets will come up for settlement.
Some of the members of the board
are in favor of purchasing a flush
ing water cart to clean the streets.
and obviate the dust nuisance of the
present sweeper system.
The board will also discuss the
proposition of experimenting proba-
bly, this year on gravel street con-
structed on concrete foundation.
and the gravel surface TO be mixed
with tar or pitch. The curbing and
gutter would be concrete. and so. al
so would the pavement. The board
thinks such a street would make an
excellent resident street, Mayor Yei-
ser also is anxious for such an ex-
pertinent to be made. and the propo-
sition is to take Fifth street. which
II seems to be the desire of everyone
to see improved. and try 1t on por-
lions of the street.
Storm Sewers.
Secretary of the Board Wilhelm is
also anxious for the board to rec
ommend the construction OF storm
sewers on the gravel streets where
they are necessary for proper drain
age, and he contends, and it seems
is borne out by the charter, that
such work is to be done at the 'ex-
pense of the abuttlng property own
ers. This would save the streets from
washing away and be good santa
ry measure, and will come up for
consideration.
