EXCELLENT PERFORMANCE
Young Folks OF st. PauIs Chapel AcQuit
Themselves Well Ia Their Comedy.
Drama

In the presence of an appreciative
audience, including q number of An
napolitans, the young folks of st.
Paul's Chapel in ST. Stephens Parish
last night repeated their performance
of the comedy drama "A Pair of
Idiots" in Murray Hall. at Crowns
vile.
The vehicle the young amateurs
selected for their histrionic endeavor
was well fitted to the cast, and had the
advantage of not being too ambitious.
The members of the cast carried
their lines and the business well in
view of the limited space of their
stage. The stage setting was well
handled and did credit to those manag-
ing the affair.
While all of the cast did we'll the
work of Miss Eleanor Hall, as Wini-
fred Lester, and that of Miss Ethel
Carr, who was cast as the old maid,
Miss Lou deserves special mention
Both were easy and natural, delivered
their lines we'll and amply deserved
the applause they got. Miss Carr S
makeup was an excellent feature
of the performance. While these
two possibly showed to the best ad-
vantage each and every member of
the cast did well. Further practice
and continued effort should make the
young actors and actresses very sue
cessful in their work on the boards.
The full cast was as follows:
Colonel Bradley-Mr. Revell Carr.
Miss Lou-Miss Ethel Carr
DR.. Gunther-Mr. Herman Holden,
of Annapolis.
Gene Bradley Mss Nina Baggar.
Peter Jennings-Mr. Harry Schrey-
er, of Annapolis.
Winifred Lester Miss Eleanor
Hall.
Between the acts of the performance
refreshments were served.

RESUMED FULL SERVICE
Washington. Baltimore And Annapolis
Puts Back Extra Car To Handle The
CITY Traffic

Announcement was made today that
the Washington, Baltimore and An
napolis Electric Railway, following
the protest filed with Mayor Strange
yesteray by Alderman Myers, had re-
sumed its full city service Of four
cars each hour.
Under the franchise granted the
company from the city at least a if
teen minute city service must be
maintained. When the change from
alternating to direct current was made,
the company claimed it could not get
its little car fitted with the proper
motors and was granted a suspension
of this section until July l, when an
effort was made TO have this extend
ed until September /. This failed
and the company is obligated to run
big cars to I'll this schedule.
Alderman Myers claimed that since
Tuesday morning the company had
been running only two cars an hour
instead of the four which they are
obligated to run under the ordinance
granting it the use of the city streets.
Mayor Strange at once took steps to
hold the company to its agreement.
The company, since Tuesday, had
been forced to withdraw the car that
was making the regular run in An
napolis on account of pressing need
out on its lines, but this car was re-
stored to service today.

Special Privileges At PASSPORT
Communicated

Much has been said about the act OF
the Legislature comforting special
privileges on citizens of the above
thriving village across the Spa. Let
US enumerate. First, the streets
were dug down until the deserved
name of canal was applied to Severn
avenue. Privilege No. 2, to see the
stone that was supposed to go into i'm
provements lying implies for pedes-
TRANS to stumble over, and any one
who wished to see miracle should
view the gutter at the end of the
bridge; said gutter is at least two
feet above the street bed and so
placed that to be of use the water
must run uphill.
After the cutters were placed o n
Third street the earth was not filled
in alongside of said gutter and yester-
day man driving a heavily loaded
team, ran off the narrow road bed in
front of Geraci's barber shop, near the
bridge, and it took much time and
labor to get out.
Another privilege is that the water
which refuses to run uphill, collects
in pool in the middle of the street
and no doubt is refreshing to animals
who are obliged to wade through it,
to say nothing of the breeding place
afforded mosquitoes. All of these
privileges are enjoyed by property
holders on Third street and on Sew
ern avenue, which streets. Before the
so-called Improvements. were about
the best in the village.
