perryyllIe People say They Block
4 Public Road.

In response to a largely signed petition
by taxpapers of Perryville and vicinity.
presented to the Board 81 County Com
missioners last week, requesting that the
Old Post road, which runs through the
town of Perryville down to the banks Of
the Susquehanna River, be reopened to
the public, the commissioners visited
Perryville Tuesday and looked over the
situation. 1t is claimed that portion of
the original road known as the Post road
is now blocked by abutments for the new
Philadelphia, Baltimore & Washington
Railroad bridge. which spans the Susque-
hanna River. The railroad company
owns or controls nearly the entire water
front at Perryville and only recently they
closed up their property SO that it is now
almost impossible for boats to land at
that town.
The operator of a ferry between Perry
vile and Havres de Grace was recently
compelled to discontinue his business be-
cause he could find no place to land on
the Perryville side of the river. For some
time the railroad company allowed the
use of their wharf and later notified the
operator of the ferry not to land there in
the future. A fence has since been placed
around the wharf.
The county commissioners after return
ing to their Office wrote General Superin-
tendent Brooks, of the Pennsylvania
Railroad, to meet them in Elkton. when
the situation will be discussed. If the
commissioners are unable to make salts.
factory arrangements to meet the de-
mands of the public legal action will be
instituted TO compel the railroad company
to remove the bridge from the public road.
About two years ago the railroad COM
pany was indicted BY a Cecil county
grand jury for blocking the Old Post road,
but the matter was agreeably settled for
the time. The commissioners are deter
mined to relieve the situation in which the
railioad company has placed the town of
Perryvile if it can be done.

ARE THE STARS FADlNG7

The opening OF the present theatri-
cal season Is accompanied by the
proclamation OF new principle, For
20 years or more the star has been
the idol OF the public and the god OF
managers. Mighty was the wage OF
this divinity. The star system seemed
permanent But last season was one OF
the most trying that theater managers
have ever weathered Scarcely one
has not curtailed his enterprises. says
the New York Sun Theatrical invest
ment is on a much less extensive
scale than It was l2 months ago. Ex.
treme conservatism marks the busi.
ness this fall Managers are search.
ing for suggestions as to the best
means OF putting their affairs on a
solid basis. One result OF this inves-
ugation is the assertion that 1t would
probably be much better for the the.
aters II there were fewer stars or
none at all The reasons for this de-
cision seem sound. at all events sound.
er to reasonable iaymen than the
causes of the sudden promotion OF
every blueeyed ingenue to the rank
OF a star. Managers have decided
that the theatrical celebrity they
make holds them afterward in tyran-
nical grasp. They must eventually
accede to all the conditions these play
ers may impose. Thus by deliberately
creating star they are raising up
force that will eventually be inimicai
to them.
