ADJUSTMENTS

CoIonial-The new season opened
auspiciously at the Colonial last eve
ming. While the gathering up stairs
was light--the first class houses seem
to expect little else in those regions
novadays-the turnout below was big.
brilliant and representative, The strong
grip which Wilton Lackaye took ON
Salt Lake years ago. when he appeared
as SVengali in "Trilby," In THE Bond
man." and The Pit" was renewed
last evening. when he presented the
intensely interesting play. THE Bat
tie" Mr.. Lackaye Is the best instance
our stage affords OF the real meaning
of the word magnetic. The manner in
which he can hold an audience. even
by n gesture. or by one OF his intense
speeches delivered In the lowest of
tones, or with his back 10 the audience,
is remarkable, and when he let's him
self loose In a flood Of invective or APP
peal. the effect Is Irresistible. THE
Battle" is filled with such opportunities,
and the greatest OF all came at the end
OF the third act, where the. son for
whom he IL fighting the great battle OF
the play, and whom he has just made up
his mind TO renounce. IL given back 10
his arms by the bullet from a mad
mans pistol. Tho enthusiasm after this
scene was immense. and after bow
ing 70 repeated curtain calls, Mr..
Lackaye yielded a delightful speech full
of clever bits and light hearted touches,
all OF which came as something Of Il
surprise to those who had always pic
turned him as a man essentially of IN
tense and serious moods Seeing his
beautiful work throughout this play.
one marvels that his Jean Vatican, in
the dramatigation OF Les Miserables.'
should not have succeeded. The fault
surely must have been that OF the

finer opportunity for Mr.. Lackaye's
gifts than this especial role would at

Liebler & Company, under whom
Mr.. Lackaye now travels, have given
"The Battle" a generous mounting. and

TOWN AMENDS CHARTER
To BUILD new HALL

Special to The Net0S.
Jackson, Miss, July 25.-Summit is
to build town hall, and in order tc
do so, it was necessary to amend 1.-THE
charter of the town. Governor Noe
has just approved the amendment
which will become effective at once
The charter of the town was also
amended as to bring it under the re
cent acts of the legislature relating
to municipalities.
The bond issue will be sufficient for
other municipal improvements in ad-
dition to the town hall, but it has not
been stated what the amount of the is
sue will be. The amended charter
will be returned to the town clerk at
once, and all details will be made for
an election for the bond issue, which
will take place some time in the early
fall.
