The Goose Girl, the dramatizatiOn Of
the novel of that name by Harold Nc
Grath, which in its day was one of
the six best Sellers" came to the
Grand yesterday afternoon in the
first performance of a weeks engage
ment. -.
In the cast are twelve people and a
goose, the latter making its entrance
with the goose girl, probaly to lend
color to the play. The fowl remains
on the stage during all the first act
and struts back and forth in front Of
the footlights, attracting as much, II
not more, attention that the thread
of the plot. And here is some plot,
for the dramatist, George D. Baker,
has taken only the most interesting
and lively parts Of the novel to make
his play. AS the book does not per
NIT one to go to sleep while reading
it, it follows that the play is reason
ably full of action.
Yesterday afternoons audience
found the play ar absorbing one and
followed it's action closely through
Out the Jour acts. The stage settings
are heavy and elaborate, the first and
third acts showing a street at the en-
franc of Black Eagle tavern in the
fictitious city Of Drieberg. Act two
is the palace gardens of the castle of
Ehrenstein, with a view of the city
in the valley and the mountains be-
yond. The fourth act shows the
throne room in the castle.
To one who has read the novel it is
evident that the play follows it as
closely as could be expected in the
limits of the stage. Those who are
unfamiliar with the book are well en-
tertained, as the story is unfolded
clearly. 1t concerns a maid of roya.

geese by the wayside. A dashing
American comes into her life, falls i'll
love with her and restores her TO her
rightful station, but not without many

Philip Streck of Indianapolis is the
principal stakeholder.
An electric road now connects Cof-

has a city electric car service.

NOT ITS QUARREL
Utilities Commission Refuses to Decide
Parsons Controversy.

The utilities commission, after hear
ing the evidence in the case against
the Parsons Street Railway company
for refusing to haul mail carriers free,
decided that it did not have jurisdic-
ton in the matter. The Parsons city
council passed an ordinance requiring
the railway to haul the U. s. mail car
riers without charge. The railway COM
pany objected, declaring that the mail
carriers were not employees of the city
and that hauling them around did not
help the city to which the company
was under obligations for a franchise.
The railroad was willing to carry fire
men and policemen but drew the line
at Uncle Sans mail carriers.
The matter will now have to be set
tied by arbitration or compromise or
go to the courts.
The utilities commission made de-
cision of Solomon today in the matter
of fixing a hairline boundary between
business and residence telephones and
the charges therefor. Complaint had
been made against the telephone COM
pany in regard to allowing the cheaper
rate to business firms located upstairs
in a building. The ground floor meant
business and the upper floor residence
in the telephone company ruling. Dis
elimination was charged. The COM
mission held that the occupation and
not the location of a patron decided
whether or not he was entitled to a
residence rate.
A flight of steps does not make a
real estate firm private family. ar
gued the honorable commission. So it
made the following ruling:
THE use of the telephone should de-
termine the rate between business
houses and residences, the mere loca-
ton of the place of business would not
be the proper measure of the rate. All
business houses should pay the bust
ness rate, regardless of whether they
be upstairs or downstairs
