He also indulged in the prediction
that when the basis of valuation of
the public service corporations of the
community can be accurately deter
mined, it will be possible to regulate
them SO that "A proper income on the
investment will be made 10 the stock
holders and other earnings so ap-
piled to betterment and adjustment of
operations as to thoroughly satisfy the
citizens of the District of Columbia.
He expected that the valuation of such
properties will be arrived at within
ninety days. He predicted universal
transfers and cheaper and better gas
and electric current.

Conrad H. Syme, Corporation Coun-

Instruction to vote against prohibi-
ton for the District of Columbia in
the consideration of the subject by the
Federation of Citizens Associations was
given by the Midcity Citizens Asso-
citation to its delegate, Charles S.
Shreve. last night.
The organization appeared SINGLE
minded in it's opposition to prohibition.
Action was taken following remarks
favoring such instruction by Mark
Stearman, self-confessed temperance
advocate, who took the view that the
midcity was better off with than
without the saloon. Delegate ShreVe
announced that he desired exactly the
instructions given him and that he
would so vote even if uninstructed.
Conrad H. Syme. corporation counsel,
orator of the evening. voiced an opln-
ion regarding the relations of the Dis
trict of Columbia and the federal gov
ernment TO the effect that those rela-
tions are not properly measurable by
a material yardstick like the half-and-
half plan; that the people of the Dis

to pay as much taxes as other COM
munities. for the reason that the desire
to keep away manufactures and make
the National Capital a residential city
DESTROYS the money ma king opportun-

the United States can be trusted to as

citizens contributing what they prop

ments to Congress should be abandoned

SPARKLING HOME TALENT.
This was Revealed IN "The Servant in
the House" Play Presented
Tuesday Evening.

This city has theatrical talent. II
you doubt it, ask anyone of the five
hundred present at the Municipal Thea
tire on Tuesday evening Of this week,
when under the auspices of the Trinity
church choir, was staged by strickly
home talent, the moral and classic play
entitled ''The Servant in the House
The Misses Temperance Knight and
Katherine Davis revealed magnetic
talent in the performing of their diff
cult parts, likewise Messrs. James
Knight, Ulmont and Romano Healy,
while Walter Horn was a real Johnnie
on-the-spot as page.
Rev. Phillips. who has heretofore
mounted the stage, appeared in the
character of Manson, a butler. and
aided largely in making the entertain
ment notable credit for home talent.
In fact upon the natural gift and exper-
fence in this line OF the reverend zen
tleman, together with his skill and
patience as a tutor, rest much praise.

Civic Club Notes.

The large number present at the
meeting of the Civic Club Friday eve
ming indicated that many citizens are
interested in the efforts the women are
making toward cleaner city and fly
less community. By the use Of slides
attention was called to unsanitary
conditions similar to those existing in
our own city but which previous to this
time have been neglected or overlooked
After viewing the slides one realizes
that he can not be too particular about
the sanitary conditions of his home and
surroundings.
The dramatic reading of Barries',
1.-THE Twelve Pound Look, 4" under the
direction of Miss Winslow, was greatly
appreciated as it familiarized one with
play which we otherwise would not
have had an opportunity of enjoying.
Miss Temperance Knight, Miss Marion
Jones and Mrs. w. l.. Huson read the
parts of the three characters. The en-
tertainment closed with very pleas
ing duet by Miss Hyde and Mr. Maust.
The next meeting will be held at the
high school, Saturday, May %, at the
usual hour.
