FAITH IN A MANAGER.

That the personality of a manager
figures materially in the success of a
theatre has been forcibly illustrated
in the recent change that has taken
place at the Family, where ]. P.

returned to his old position. Sunday
a new record for attendance was set
at the house. At both performances

f1ce-the theatre was fairly well fill
ed 1t was indeed a handsome com
pliment to the popularity of Mr.
Quinn with vaudeville patrons and
proof of the confidence they have in
his announcements.
The bill for the first half of the
week has just enough of variety and
novelty to make it entertaining
throughout. The Four Musical
Hodges, one of the prettiest instru-
mental acts in vaudeville, feature the
program. Local interest attaches to
this act through the association of
Miss J. Alma Holt as one of the quar-
tet. For several years Miss Holt was
seen in local entertainments in cor
net numbers. Her mastery Of this
instrument soon carried her reputa-
ton outside of her home, with the

Highest Amount Retired Rock

Is $3.50 Per Month.
DIFFERS FROM OTHER LINES
High SaIaried People Should Have

selves Is Theory of Officers.

One of the Important features of the
Rock Island pension system that differs
from that of all other roads is the fix
ing of maximum amount This COM
pany will not give pension to exceed
$3.50 a month to any officer or employee
retired.
This is the only road that has fixed
maximum pension On all the other
lines there is no top or limit to the
amount retired officer or other en-
ploye may receive. In some instances
on other lines pensions of as high as
$500 and in one instance $1,000 a
month has been given retired officers.
the amount being based on their
salaries.
$3.50 is the Limit.
The Rock Island company has de-
cided that regardless of the amount
an officer might have received or the
prominence OF his position, $3.50
month will be the limit. This is on
the theory that those earning or re-
ceiving unusually high salaries have
been in positions to have made a pen
sion unnecessary.
This company is also to give the
highest minimum pension, $40 per
month. The Pennsylvania has fixed
SO minimum, and the Northwestern

est amount paid a retired employee
The Illinois Central pension is based

BrOtherhoOds Are Active.
There is considerable complaining
among employees who have been re-
tired under the pensions of the various
roads over the low amounts given
them The different brotherhoods and
organizations OF employees OF the Penn,
sylvania railroad are now circulating
petitions asking that the men give 60
cents a month out of their wages. to
go into separate fund to be added
to the pension. The employees figure
that from this fund every man retired
could receive S25 a month added to
the amount given as a pension. While
the men are not fighting pension sys-
TENS, there is considerable disSatis-
faction over the low amounts given
on retirement. and it was in answer
to these protests that the minimum
had been fixed. The men say these
minimums are too low, as the pension
and that in few cases will anything
under $50 per month mean much in
the way of general support.

GETS LAST STRIP
Rock Island Southern Has Right
of Way for Entire Aledo
Stub.
FINAL CASE PASSES COURT
Construction Will Start Early and
Branch Will BE Opened Soon
After Main Line.

1t cost the Rock Island Southern
1880 to get the last bit of right OF
way for the proposed stub line from
Gilchrist to Aledo. the jury in the
condemnation proceedings finding that
to be fair price in their judgmen:
for the Butler place. The case came
TO a close Saturday afternoon, and
after the final instructions had been
given the jury they retired and after
an hours review of the case came
back with the verdict.
Now that the right of way for the
Aledo line is secured and a definite
understanding has been reached be-
tween the road and the citizens of
Aledo, on the amount of assistance
which that city is to give the road in
b 'uding the line, it is expected that
struction work will be started on
I Z line as soon as spring opens up.
he country over which this line will
pass is not so roughs bet traversed
by the north and south Ne of the
R. l. S. and hence there win not be
so many problems for the engineers
nor so much expense incurred in build
ing the line.
Open Soon After Main Line.
Owing to these conditions it is ex-
pected that the work of building the
short road will not take very long,
and that the stub will be ready for op-
Grafton about as soon as the main line
is opened for traffic between this city
and Monmouth. The equipment for
this bit of road will be similar to that
of the main line, and a service that
will easily take care of all the traffic,
both freight and passenger. has been
promised by the officials of the road.
