ADJUSTMENTS.
The Traffic

1.-THE Traffic" played at the Grand
opera house in Burlington the past two
days. The following was taken from
the Burlington Gazette of last evening:
The Traffic one of the greatest
shows of its kind, showed before a
good crowd at the Grand last night and
will appear again this afternoon and
evening. The play is one that would
not offend the most particular. The
action is frank, but is presented in
such manner that no one could feel
that the words are far fetched or over
drawn for the sake of dramatic action.
The company that played the yari-
GUS roles last night Is one of the best
that has ever been here. Every one of
the stage characters was represented
in manner hardly indispensable. The
awful realism they managed to put in
to their parts made one think 1t was
not a play he were watching, but was
some horrible happening in real life.
Miss Bessie Sankey, who took the
part of Agnes, semed to actually live
her part. Her acting was superb and
from the start to the finish the audi
ence was held to pitch Of intense In
terest by her splendid ability.
The play opens with a poem recited
by Miss Sankey's The poem is called
"A Voice From the Darkness" and is
spoken from the stage with all the
lights out. It is fitting opening for
the play and before the curtain had
been up five minutes the audience
realized that fact.
There was not poorly played part
in the entire company and each of the
members Of the cast played IN the
manner born. They seemed to forger
that they were acting and instead Of
acting the parts, lived them. The
realism OF the play is it's main feature
and the phase was strongly brough
out.

Week on the
/ Question.

Keokuk Is using water taken from

In front OF the waterworks station,
and meeting OF the public health
committee OF the Industrial Associa-
ton was held last night to consider
the report OF DR.. Al. L. Glover, state
bacteriologist, on the water supply Of
the city.
The using OF water from the fore
bay naturally brings up some prob
lens which were not present when the
water was taken in at the middle Of
the river in front of the pumping sta
ton. These problems have all been
considered by DR.. Glover who has
made survey OF the conditions here,
and of the Keokuk water supply.
The survey prepared by the state
official was taken up in detail by the
public health committee last night
and was thoroughly discussed. The
report covers practically all angles
of the question. and the committee
very thoroughly discussed the various
provisions.
Following the discussion by the
committee, certain recommendations
were drawn up and will be presented
to the board of directors next week,
together with the original report OF
the state expert. When these recon-
mendations are acted upon, the full
text OF Dr. Glover's report will be
made public.

To take no chances, however, DR.
Glover was invited to make an in
spection OF the conditions as they ex
list locally. He made several obser
vations, and took much pains with his
report which is comprehensive ant
thorough. The additional recommend

half of the week. The story Of the
play is rather novel, and deals with
the efforts Of band Of young men,
whose hearts have been broken by the
girls they have made love to, and who
in turn try to break the same young
women's hearts. Jim Blunt will be
seen as "The Master" of this heart
breaking club, who eventually falls in
love and renounces his vows, thereby
breaking UP the band. One of the fea-
lures of this clever play is it's musical
numbers, which are sung by chorus
picked not only for it's beauty, but also

Spectacular in its investure Of bar
barrie splendor, Astounding in dramatic
episode of intense suspense, and deal
ing with serious theme of deep re-
ligious import, the action of this great
drama moves forward briskly and
with the finality and realism Of life
itself Every moment is fraught with
dramatic action and subtitle meaning
as the story. is unfolded. The audience
is literally transported down through
the ages to the proud and wicked
days when Rome fourished in all Its
glory From the root Of the house OF
Valerius, the first setting Of the play,
a panoramic glimpse of the ancient
city is had, as the members of the
household avow their allegiance to the
christian faith. Here is told how
Marco Valerius, just decorated by the
Emperor Diocletian, in moment of
Iincautious zeal has disclosed his
faith, and prophecy is made Of his
obstruction, as we'll as all followers
of the Nazerene. Then Is shown the
beautiful rose garden Of the villa Of
the Princess Artenia in the Campag-
Inia-with its tender declaration OF
love, its betrayal, and the proclama-
| ton of the doom of all christians.
| The first scene Of the third act finds
the characters in the gloomy dungeons
beneath the palace of the Caesars, and
the second scene shows the magnific-
4 ent throne room of the reigning en-
peror Here effort is made to force
pagan worship upon the condemned
}Valerius; and here the power of pag-
anism, as typified by the alter of Jupi-
ter, god OF gods, is shattered and gives
place to miraculous cross of fire.
Then comes the narrow sacrificial
door through which the martyrs pass
entering the arena-where the hapless
Marco Valerius pays the Roman price
for his faith and shares the glory of q
christian death with her \ who has
brought him thither.
4 Throughout the four acts the perse
cution of the Caesars is visualized tc
a degree unattained by any of the
+ forerunners of THE Light Eternal
There is certain dramatic power and
