 Operations

Eufaula, April 6.-tSpecial.) 1.-The city will tomorrow night face the question whether or not to continue operating the municipal gas plant. Ever since the city took 1t over, several years ago, the gas plant has been losing proposition, all though the waterworks and electric light plant are earning money every month The deficit of the gas plant, however, has cut into the profits of the other two utili- ties and municipal ownership in Eufaula has not shown up like it should when all three plants are considered.
 The blame lies with the gas plant, and if several thousand dollars are not voted Tor Improvement in the distributing sys- tenn 1t Is thought that the council will vote to discontinue the operation of the plant, which would meet with storm of disapproval on all sides
 Although serious accident happened to Aviator A. c. Beach. who is to appear at Eufaula next Wednesday, while he was ma King flight at Hawkinsville, Ga. yesterday, his manager has wired the local committee that he will be able to come here for the aviation day that will be given under the auspices of the merchants and business men of the city.
 The force of workmen who have been busy on. the Eufanla and Ozark division or the Central of Georgia railroad since last fall have practically completed the rebuilding of the roadbed, which had been m poor state of repair. New rail and ueS nave been laid and the roadhed re- graded with gravel by work train.

LOCUSTs DIE WHOLESALE.
Young French Scientist Perfects
Method of Evterminating Pests.

PARIS, April A young French
scientist, DR.. d'Herelle, has just re-
turned from the Argentine, where he
has succeeded in finding a practical
method of exterminating the locusts,
one of the worst plaques in that coun-
try The means employed is the ba-
cillus responsible for the disease which
apparently is epidemic among To-
Gusts.
DIR. d'Herelle has succeeded in cul-
tivating the bacillus to such pitch
of virulence that it is fatal to the in
sects within "a hours and propagates
itself with great rapidity. A liquid
is inwected with the culture and then
sprinkled on the plants on which the
locusts are likely to settle. The ef-

NEAT PROFIT REALIZED
THROUGH \. SCHOOL PLAY
"THE CAPTAIN OF PLYMOUTH
COMIC OPERA, STAGED AT
OREGON THEATER.

Before a good sized audience in the
Oregon theater last evening, the stu
dents of the high school presented
1.-THE Captain of Plymouth" comic
opera. and they did 1t in way that
gave real pleasure to those who were
in attendance. In fact the play was
put on with a remarkable ease for am
ateurs. and this despite the fact that
two of the original cast were on the
sick list and had to secure substitutes.
1t might be mentioned that If the
stars were any better than their un-
derstudies, the school has some rare
ability in the histrionic line. George
Hackathorne played the part of Miles
Standish for Clarence Bean who is
suffering a relapse from the mumps,
while r. E. Chloupek substituted for
Joe Colesworthy who is quarantined
with smallpox. These two were the
stars of the male contingent. both
evincing a great deal of cleverness.
Miss Edna Wisdom, cast in the role
of Priscilla, was the leading lady of
the piece and her acting and singing
was of a very pleasing character. Her
solo, Spinning Song was beautiful
ly rendered.
Miss Ruth Terpening as Mercy"
also starred in the singing line, her
solo. Love Is Life" receiving the
compliment of enthusiastic applause
Among the other characters who
helped much in making the play
success should be mentioned Henr,
Latourelle who exhibited hitherto
unknown ability as a comedian.
Perhaps the best part of the higf
| school entertainment was the chorus
| work. The voices were full anC
strong and had been well trained. In
deed there have been professional
troupes through here who could no
present as creditable chorus work a
did the students last evening.
Two of the chcruses which wer
especially well received were the In
dian ana squaw choruses. With
wigwam setting and decorated witt
warbonnets, beads and dresses of tn
Moorhouse collection, the effect wa
most realistic.
The amateur opera netted the stu
dent body a neat profit and muc
credit Is due Miss Adel Poston an
Mr.. Chloupek for the success OF IN
affair.

one. They assert it Is continuation
of the factional fight which disrupted
the schools two years ago and caused
the dismissal of Superintendent Pow

At that time Powers and Kirk were
at war. Both were let out as a com
promise, and Kuntz and Kilpatricl
