PROBE OF HERDIC SERVICE.
Residents Complaints Lead Gen
Johnston to Investigate.

Because of the numerous complaints
against the Metropolitan Coach Com
pany, which runs the Sixteenth street
herdic line. Commissioner Johnston has
received a report on the case of the her
dies and will lay it before the Commits
sioners at an early date.
During the last year so many COM
plants from residents along the route
have been received that Commissioner
Johnston will investigate the schedule
and service.
There is no legislation in the District
by which the Commissioners can enforce
a new schedule for the line, unless they
appeal to Congress to pass a bill making
conditions as to schedule and service.
When seen last night. officials of the
company declined to make any statement
other than that they would present their
case to the satisfaction of all concerned.

REMOVAL OF BRAINS
DOESN'T STOP LIFE
Scientists Remove Cerebral
Hemispheres from Dog
Which Lives.

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-A series OF
experiments Of unusual interest has
been carried on In Germany within
the last few years by Rothman. Early
in 1907 he removed by operation the
left half OF q dogs brain, and two
years later. completed the operation
by cutting out the right hemisphere.
This animal with its entire cerebrum
eliminated, was shown at q medical
conference in Berlin. It then present.

Of it, habits has no doubt furnished

in working out the functioning Of the
human brain. 1t does not indicate
that q human being could get along
without his cerebral hemispheres,
even though they were removed with
out disturbing the rest Of the ma
chinery. but it does throw much light
upon the general subject Of the brain.

The evening had been spoiled.

Distances are not 50 vast in this
near-metropolis that persons who
might be left standing lamenting on
corners by our rapid-fire street-cars
could not walk. But the truth is. that
bad as the old street-cars are, you
can generally, by herculean sprinting,
catch one after the theater.
Certainly there should be some rule
which would permit those who want to
see the end of a play to do so undis-
turbed. If the hunters of goloshes I'M
der seats and the Primers on of hats
could be all herded together at given
point and the others massed harmon
iously it might help some.
This is, however, a mere suggestion,
made without malice and to fill up
space. But some solution should be
offered.
Would it be well also to call atten-
ton to the thirsty ones who repair
to the nearby hostelries for liquid re-
freshment?
Or would it be regarded as an as
sault upon intrenched privilege?
Be that as it may if these seekers at
ter mental and gastronomic stimulant
could all be placed at the ends where
they could unobtrusively ooze out at
that half and half moment when the
curtain has not yet hit the floor and
the lights not yet flashed on, much
physical pedal suffering on the part
of the sQueezees, with consequent
mental anguish induced by an effort
to appear as though nothing had hap
pened and to repress any expressions
of unchristian, if justifiable character,
would be avoided.
While it is true that all people do
not care to sit out the repertoire of
ancient classics sometimes heard be-
tween acts at the playhouse, and in
deed, may be driven to seek fluid con.
ISOLATION for this or other equally in
excusable reason, otherwhere, there
are still others who prefer to repose
stodgily between curtains, and there
fore, some system should be devised
whereby all would be able to enjoy
themselves with that degree of com
fort which is the right of every per-
son who has bought tick et to the
playhouse.
This does not include the dead
heads. who sitting uneasily, disconso-
lately and, even, profanely, behind
posts deserve nothing more than to
have their feet as we'll as their feel
ings trampled on by the low-brows
who are consumed with a desire to
drown their thirst in its liquid affinity.
This all involves a vital question
that should be given careful considera-
ton by those who have the shaping of
the fortunes Of theater-goers in their
hands.
There are, also, those kind persons
who have seen the play before and
seek to explain it to those seated near
by.

The Murat theater. in Indianapolis.
is regarded as one of the most perfect
in the country and is, without ques-
ton, beautiful and satisfying inter.
ior.
1t is, however, to the notion of the
writer. too deep in its auditorium and.
altogether, too big.
Smaller theaters are not alone the
most practicable, but they also lend
themselves more readily to realism in
presentation. Theaters like the Murat
have stages in proportion and the lat
ter are too big to give an illusion OF
an ordinary house interior.
In The Passing of the Third Floor
Back" in instance, the extreme width
of the stage had to be minimized by
the placing of scenic appurtenances
far down the stage SO that the room
gave a curious impression of elonga
ton.
Smaller theaters are, indeed, much
more comfortable in every way, that
is from the standpoint of their raison
d'etre-the presentation of play
which is expected to give the illusion
of reality.
