 GOOD SUPPORT
Great Play Splendidly Por- trayed By Excellent Or ganization, Gives Record Breaking Performance of Veiller's Drama

Within the Law is a story of
 ! conditions existing in New York. or | any other great city for that matter | today. written by a man who knows i the city and his subject It is not a pleasant story. but unfortunately God knows it is true. and it is told in a manner which leaves nothing to Inc imagination and drives home the bitter stinginG truth in a manner that Hicks one on the row
 It tells Of Mary Turner a shop girl. with high ideals in Il great de- partment store, trying to exist on starvation wages. working nine hours 8 day for six dollars week and striving to remain honest and de cent. Another girl steals some goods and places them in the locker where Mary keeps her clothes and Mary is arrested. tried. found guilty and. on the suggestion of her employees that an example is needed to deter others in his employ from stealing, she is sentenced and serves three years i'm prisonment At the end of her term she is released, her integrity un- smirchcd by the three degrading years in prison, and seeks work again in the department stores. but the police track her and warn the firms against her. until in despera ton she throws herself in the river and is rescued by a crook. From that moment she turns her wits to win a living within the law" legalized blackmaii pr crooked dealing, any thing you wish to call it but ali un- der the protection of The law that is made for the rich and which money so seasily calls to ones as sistance. She plans to revenge her self on her former employer by making his son fall in love with and marry her and then disclose herself to his father She succeeds only too well and ends by loving the man she sought to use as q catspaw for her revenge.
 Mir. Vciller has drawn his charac- , ters well and built a gripping drama about his theme of crime. II is not the great American play, but it is an intensely interesting one, and through it's sordid story paints an ab- solutely true picture of certain phase of life. The first act is really great but at times after that it falters and is dragged out at the finish: but 1t stands miles ahead of any play Of it's type that we have ever seen. Miss Ellington made very faVor4 1 able impression in the role of Mary Turner. although the part lay beyond her somewhat limited ability. Tn the first act she was magnificent. but in the lighter moments she did not satisfy.
 The company supporting her was truly splendid.
 Miss Hilda Keenan as Agnes Lynch was q real treat The hiSh- est compliment We can pay her is to say that her work was worthy or the daughter of so fine an actor as Frank Keenan.
 Frank F. Camp was exceptionally
 good as Carson. it was a beautifuiiN
 drawn piece of work. and soma Jasper was excellent in small h1t.
 The whole company was good anu tho production one of the pest seen here in long time.

RATE MAKING.
Discussion Of Re-adIustment Of Rates
for Bryan's Public Utilities.

The making Of rates for Public
utilities in small cities Is very grave
question and must be done scienti-
ficially the public WIN never be sat
lsfied. But no man should say a rate
is too high, until he has enlightened
himself on the cost OF plant and It's
yearly maintenance.
Rate making when II Is done pro-
perly is arrived at in the following
manner:
1. Replacement value plant
2. Depreciation.
3. Maintenance cost
4. Operation.
As the city should be allowed an
earning on its Investment, set aside
6 per cent or per cent for that pur-
pose and use this per cent or 5 per
cent earning in extensions to the sys-
tenn each year, adding the money
spent to replacement value.
2. The depreciation af plant can
be accurately figured and this amount
appropriated for repairs.
3. The maintenance OF a plant can.
be approximately figured and this
amount set aside for that purpose.
Now then since the city has been
operating the plant four years and has
an exact record OF its earnings II Is
very easy to arrive at It's operating
cost and number OF consumers and
daily amount furnished each.
With all OF the above information at
hand the task OF fixing a rate to pro
duce the necessary income strikes one
as very easy.
As stated before in this article the
consumers will not be satisfied until
this action is taken and full reports
