The announcement of the coming of
'The Winning of Barbara Worth" to
the Gennett, Thursday, anuary %,
will be received with pleasurable anti
cipation by the many readers Of the
celebrated book by Harold Bell
Wright. The stage version is by the
we'll known playwright, Mark Swan,
the comptny carefully selected, and
the scenic production, which will be
massive and magnificent, will leave
nothing to be desired, and it is re-
garded in every respect as being rival
ed in scenic splendor only by 1.-THE
Round Up" and "The Trail of the
Lonesome Pine" The coming Of this
clean and wholesome play of the
southwest at time when so-called
crime plays and plays of the under
world seem to be prevalent, is refresh
ingly worthy of note.
David copperHeld.
David Copperfield, probably the
greatest work of the eminent author,
Charles Dickens, and undeniably a
writing which is cherished by child
rem and grownups of the world alike,
as one of his greatest efforts, has
been realisticly immortalized by the
motion picture and will be shown at
the Murrette theatre on Thursday and
Friday. Through the untiring jealous
ness and ardent efforts of the Hep
worth Manufacturing company, of
London, England, there has been &C
complished in this cinematographic
reproduction a masterpiece of the mo-
, ton picture art, which will live for
generations to come as a monument
in the field of accomplishments of
things beneficial to the world.

his very thin features He wore a coat
OF which the sleeves were so tight that
i wondered how he ever got his arms
into them. a much-faded waistcoat which
had once been of brilliant coloring, gave
him an air Of decayed gentiiity / noticed
that he wore much-soiled spats or over
CATERS. His attitude was that of a man
who was very pensive.
''Who is hep asked my friend.
He claims to be tie original char
acter from whom Dickens drew Alfred
Jingle. IL he is not ther he is o splendid
imitator of the Jingle Dickens described.
He says he knew Dickens slightly and
that Dickens used to talk to him. Furth-
ermore, he says that he was recognized
by his friends as Alfred Jingle, although
Dickens would never adfnit that he
sketched Jingle from anybody. Nobody
knows how he lives although he has told
some Of my friends that he came to New
York TO see IL he could not make bet
ter living than he did in London
Il think II must have been ten years
later when / spoke to Thackeray of the
incident and asked him II he thought II
possible that this was the real original
of Jingle.
Thackeray told me in reply that IL
was not at all improbable. He said that
Dickens got the hint of most of his
famous characters from some one he
knew. and many of his most ridiculously
funny incidents. like the .Barkis is will
in were developed by him from incl
dents that had come to his knowledge
Then Thackeray made another state
ment which very greatly impressed me-
He said that he was satisfied that almost
all fiction which has permanent value
reflects the personal experiences OF the
writer. In that sense. fiction or the best

Municipal Owtership.

The District Commissioners are seek
ing to shoulder a big responsibilit,
when they ask authority of Congress tt
acquire and operate for the District o.
Columbia the plants of the Washington
Gas Light Company and the George
town Gas Light Company. That they
have -rnbounded faith in their ability tc
successfully operate the gas plants un-
der municipal ownership is indicated
because they admit Senator Gallinger's
plan to consolidate the two companies
would probably result in benefit, prin-
cipally in reduction of the cost of gas
TO the consumer, and yet express their
preference for ownership and operation
by the District of Columbia.
No doubt the District Commissioners
have studied the problems involved in
municipal operation of public utilities
and are fortified with statistics that will
enable them later on, if necessary, to
support their position before Congress.
None of the details, of course, is in
cluded in their report on the Gallinger
amendment to the District appropria-
lion bill providing for the merger of
the two companies.
Everybody recognizes the folly of
maintaining two separate corporations
for the manufacture and distribution of
gas. The companies themselves, the
public and a large element in Con-
gress are anxious for the merger, and
the Commissioners have nothing to say
against it. Their principal suggestion
is that reduction i'll the price of gas
would certainly result from municipal
ownership. while it is only probable that
this would be accomplished through the
proposed merger. This is question
that cannot be determined IN advance,
though the possibility suggests itself
of making such concession in price
condition of the merger.
The situation seems to be best
summed up by Senator Martin, chair
man of the Senate Committee on Ap-
preparations, who says:
| see no reason why we could not
take over the gas companies just as
well after such a merger as proposed
in the Gallinger amendment is ef-
fected.
So far as at present revealed there
is no enthusiasm for municipal owner
ship in the Senate. the indications be-
ing that the Gallinger amendment or
something similar will prevail Certain
ly every one will concede that such
an outcome would be immessurabIy pref
