THE PLAYS
THIS WEEK.

Nero. the smallsouled, the vainglo-
rious Roman emperor who made a hell
OF his empire TO find new thrills, lived
a chapter OF his life again in the won
derful production Of Quo Vadis."
which began a weeks engagement at
the Grand Monday night.
With the historical setting true in
minutest detail, the wonderful photo
play carries the spectator back into a
civilization that neither histories nor
drama has adequately described.
For two hours the cnematograph
clicked Off a vivid picture, whose ro-
mantle interest Wed with its historic
perfection. The pomp Of a pagan civil
ization, the splendoT OF a mighty ma
ton were depicted in the novel The
pictures supply what in the book must
be left to Imagination.
An idea Of detail to which the produc
ers have paid such close attention may
be gained from fact that even the poor
ght Of Nero was not overlooked The
emperor in the picture carries with him
a lorgnette made from an emerald.
Costumes, scenes-everyt hing-were of
that period nearly 1900 years ago, when
the early Christians were struggling to
introduce the newest religion Into
heather Rome.
The story as told by the novel IL fol-
lowed closely. And aside from spectacu-
lar scenes the story itself calls for clos
est attention. II runs easily unfolding
naturally as plot gives way to counter
plot
A few years ago the picture would
have been impossible Now, though. pro-
ducers have learned to perfect setting
In pictures seen daily in the scent
houses wonderful illusions are shown;
many similar TO those in "Quo Nadis."
But they can not hold like the play at
the Grand II has a background they
lack
The play cost hundreds of thousands
Of dollars and thousands took part in its
production. A wealth of labor and money
were necessary to make II ready for
the camera. II is one OF the greatest
pictures ever shown.

City Attorney Vernon announced to
the council that he had notified the
parties concerned in the action against
the city by Mrs. Marshall, who sus-
tanned injuries recently when she fell
on an alleged defective sidewalk on
the west side. She had started action
against the city for $4,000 damages
but later through her attorney cffer-
ell to settle for $3.50. : +. i ->,~
Mr.. Vernon stated that the question
as tc liability was very close and that
he doubted that the property owners
were responsible. ne said that he
would confer with the Water Power
company in regard to their bearing
part or all Of the burden of the ac-
tion but considered it most adv1s4
allie for the city to settle for $3.50
AMI get what they could from The
Water Power company, as the PLAN
tiff would likely get damages of from
S., 600 to $4,000 if the case goes into
district court. He said that the Wa
te- Power company owns the water
pipes leading from the mains to the
property line and that the company
should have all taps in the sidewalks
lowered so as to be on level with
the walks. Mr.. Gordon of the Water
Power company stated that outside
of the mains the company owns no
pipes in the streets of the city and
is therefore not responsible for any
taIe or pipes which project above the
walk level.
The city attorney then advised the
council to fight the case and find out
whether or not the city is liable, as
tbcle are from two to three hundred
such pipes and taps protruding above
the surface of the walks. of the city.
The street committee reported that
a number of property owners who
have been notified to repair their
walks have failed to do so. The street
Commissioner was instructed to make
such repairs and the costs will be as
sessed to the abutting property.
