 With all parts good one might al- most say perfect. there is nothing to crticise and on.y praise to offer. The author must have been pretty well as- sured of the men who would create his two 'eading parts before he wrote the book, else he would have hesitated long before trusting them to any unknown Many months have passed since the public has witnessed such work as that Of Guy Standing as Charley Steele, and Theodore Roberts as Joe Portugais. At no point did either overdo his part and in no place did he fail to make all out of 1t that could be obtained by anyone.
 Miss May Murkley as Rosali was charming. Voice and manner as well as costume and surroundings were as near perfection as is not often given to beings of mere flesh and blood Her renunciat ton of her church, home, friends and everything earthly for the man she loves, at the ending of the fourth scene, called for many curtain rises.

 The Extension of Privilege.
 "So much for the municipal improve ment movement here in New Haven so far as it concerns new buildings, better aprroacn to the town, access sions to the parks, and so on. In all this we are participating in national impulse for civic improvement-an inn pulse now felt indeed almost all over the world. I may as well say that my own feeling about the movement here in New Haven is now. and has been from the first, far more serious than is expressed by the term City Beautl- full as it is used The fruits of the movement here will, I hope, be found not alone in city better adapted to the requirements of modern life, more dignified of aspect, more harmonious in its architecture, more convenient for the transaction of public and private business, better adapted for the free movement of its citizens from one part of the city to the other better provis- ion for the health and comfort of peo- pie of moderate means who live here the year around, but in city in which there is the maximum opportunity for every citizen to enjoy such privileges as the city affords. It seems to me that municipal improvements on large scale must lead to a general improve ment in the conditions of municipal life and ultimately to great unification or it for the reason that everything that tends to make the citizens of place think about the same thing tends to bring them together"
 MT. Seymour went on to speak of the opening the Yale Art School and the Peabody Museum Sunday afternoons and outlined the possibilities inherent in some plan which would make these institutions and the public library co- ordinate in further educating the peo- pie of the city. He favored the move ment to have the Historical Society open its doors on Sunday and thus stimulate the community to seek en- Enthusiastically knowledge of local his tory. In conclusion Mir. Seymour made an effective appeal for the better CO., ordination of the New Haven Public Library. the University Library, the Historical Society Library with the Art School, the Peabody Museum and
 the public schools.

MASS MEETING CALLED
TO ARRANGE FINANCES

The citizens OF Coal Greek have
called mass meeting which will be
held within the next few days to ar
range for the finances to pay the e1-
penses OF the municipal government
for the fiscal year. When the fire
of last June swept the camp, the
tax resources we're almost wiped away,
and the greatest revenues now are
derived from tho saloon licenses, but
as they are only $500 year for each
saloon, the revenue from that source
alone is not enough to run the city.
1t is customary for a retiring
board to make the budget of appro-
priations to regulate the city for
the year in which the new council
controls the destinies OF the town.
but the outgoing council at its final
meeting failed to do this because, it is
claimed. they did not feel like en-
barrassing their successors; and at
any rate there was no money to ap.
priato. The object of this meeting
is to devise ways aud means where by
sufficient revenue for municipal ex-
penses for the fiscal year can be rails
ed. No definite plan of action has
been taken, it is said, but this is a
matter that will be left up to the peo-
ple After the dissstrious fire visited
the camp the then board abolished
their salaries and saved the city
quite sum. Since this custom has
been established,It is likely the ingo-
ing board will act likewise.
The lodge hall, the union church
aud the saloon building which has
been under construction for some
time, are rapidly nearing the compile
tion stage with the exception of the
church, which, according to the con-
tract can be finished anytime up to
the first of June. The Odd Fellows
hall will be finished on the twenty

The MAN AND HIS JOB.

know young man who seems to
have natural capacity for knowing
how to 60 about things. He gradual
ed from college Of pharmacy only
last June and was put in charge Of
the laboratory Of perfumery house
In New York at salary of twenty
dollars week. Before lie was OH
the job a month he discovered a
valuable formula and asked for an
increase In salary of five dollars a
week. No sooner was this granted
than he distinguished himself again
and asked to have his salary raised
to thirty dollars week.
Look here," said the boss.
every time you do something
clever, you pat yourself ON the back
and strike for a raise. Now, I'll
give you five dollars more than you
ask, IL you will sign contract for
two years.
My friend signed the contract but
the assurance Of two years employ
ment at high salary didn't lessen
his Willingness to make good. AS
said he possesses Il peculiar charac-
teristic of knowing how to go about
things and last week something hap
pened that called into play every
latent power in his makeup.
At three O'Clock in the morning a
telephone message told him that their
building was afre.
Everything was wrecked except the
safe containing the books and formu-
las. The manager and Office force
completely lost their nerve and found
solace by plunging into a state Of in
toxication which lasted unbroken for
several days. The young chemist,
however. knew how to go about
things. lie waited at the scene of
the FIRE and secured the addresses
Of all the employees. Then he bor-
rowed somebody's office, sent form
letter to all their customers, and at
tended to infinite detail which prev.
iously he knew nothing whatsoever
about After half days search lie
succeeded in finding suitable loft
and placed orders for material and
fixtures all of which WAS done with
such promptitude that within three
days they were doing business as
usual
1t Ia In a time like that when all
the ability which lies dormant within
man comes out and he can show his
employers that he knows how to go
about things.
