Policemen Have a
New Saloon Problem.

That odd noise which prevails over
Baltimore today is caused by the
scratching of heads in the Police De-
partment. The problem concerns the
saloons of Baltimore and whether the
police are supposed to take action in
case saloonists do not come across in
time with the 500 additional license
fee under the recent act of the states
lawmakers.
"Only about 100 have paid the extra
money! said Adam Deupert, clerk of
the Court of Common Pleas. There
are about thousand in Baltimore and
this leaves 900. roughly. still to be
heard from. The law says that they
have until June Is"
Now the police have received no in
structions as to how they are to act
and whether it is their business to
close the saloon which has not paid
the license. Hence the head scratch
ing.
Wonder what Annapolis policemen
would 40 in the matter. but this ques-
tion was not raised in Annapolis, as
the saloon keepers have paid the ad-
ditional $500.

THE WAYS OF MEN
STRANGE AND PRIMITIVE
Women Asked to Aid in Securing
Filtration Plant for City
Water Supply.
WOMEN Get OUT AND WORK. I"
But Can't Vote, Why Forsake Home
for Pernicious Atmosphere Of
Politics?
Communicated
To the Editor of The Capital:

To the Editor of The Capital:
Sir-The women of Annapolis are
being called upon TO use their infiu-
ence with the City Council to obtain a
filtration system for the city water
supply. Strange and most primitive
are the ways of men, Is it nothing
to them that our mutual interests cry
out against graduated mud also polly
wogs? Why must the women of our
city apply for filtration of the water
which should fall alike upon us all,
irrespective of sex?
When our men ask us TO 'get out
and work for filtrated water"and open
ly admit in doing so that it depends
upon the women of Annapolis to pro-
cure the same because the men will
do nothing about it," what are we to
think? Are not some of us frequently
told by ornaments of the male sex that
woman's place is in the home and that
all outside said home can be adequate
ly attended to by chivalrous man?
Shall We then leave our home to work
for something which man has failed to
procure for us, although he claims to
represent our interests in the COM
munity. Perish the thought
Better sand in the coffee and mud in
the tea than that the women of An
napolis should forsake the sanctity OF
their four walls to beseige our City
Fathers in the pernicious atmosphere
of politics. How long will the old cry
go out from men to women--"Do you
the heavy work and leave to us the
profits; do you the equal work for half
the pay; do you leave the home in our
interests but never in yours; do you
bear the burden and watch us spend
the money; do you by your efforts
support our churches, Civic Leagues,
philanthropic associations, and chart
ties while we tie your hands political
ly in order to give ourselves a free
foot" That age-old cry will be heard
until women awaken from their sleep,
and with their awakening will come
the dawn.

"WASH" COSTS MORE
Big Laundries Abolish Twelve Flat
Pieces for a Quarter.

Milady of the house will begin next
Monday to pay new prices for that fiat
work" sent to the laundry. There will
quarter"
The big laundries of the cities, is was
announced yesterday, have formed
themselves into the Flatiron Club for
the purpose of abolishing the twelve
pieces for quarter" rate and for es-
tablishing uniform charge. A rise in
the prices of laundry work? Not So
say the laundrymen, and they point to
the fact that under the new scale
which they have adopted one may have
a whole dozen bolster cases laundered
for only "a cents.
But them Mrs. Doubling Thomas
may say, who wants to have a dozen
bolster cases washed?"
The reason for the organization of
the laundrymen they themselves say,
isthat various laundries have been
charging various prices for fiat work.
They wanted all the laundries to have
uniform price And they wanted to
do away with the twelve pieces for a
quarter" Here is the new list of
prices: Spreads, 10 cents; sheets, 3
cents; pillow cases, cents; bolster
cases, 2 cents; towels lall kinds), 2
cent; napkin, l cent; doiley, l cent
The Independent Laundry Company
finds it cannot do twelve pieces for rs
cents, as usual, as some customers will
include twelve table cloths which, at
list prices, are equivalent to so cents.
Laundry pieces should be assorted
large and small, to include the twelve
pieces. Hence the necessity of the In
dependent Laundry Company changing
their price list.

MOVING PICTURE ATTRACTIONS


The Soul Market" powerful
five-part Metro wonderfully with
Nine. Petrova, the screens most su-
perb emotional actress in the leading
role. will be the big attraction at the
Colonial for tonight. The story deals
with a musical comedy prima donna,
who becomes weary of the methods
of wealthy men who barter with young
girls of the stage, tempting them
with life of luxury and ease. The
prima donna views the theatre and the
high life attending, as being soul
market, where young girls are bought
and sold the same as they were in the
days of ancient Babylon. She is
brought TO this realization when she
is about to give herself over to a man
of wealth rather than marry the young
man she loves. The; e are many strik-
ing scenes in this production, including
an allegory showing Babylonian slave
market where girls were sold to the
highest bidder. No matter in what
picture she is. cast, Nine. Petrova,
may be relied upon to make it intense
lv interesting. She is such thorough
actress and her screen personality is
so unusual that probably in the Metro
Corporations long list of stars there
is none better qualified TO give vitality
to the Popular Plays and Players pro
duction of 1.-THE Soul Market than
Nine. Petrova in the role of the
musical comedy star of a somewhat
different type type that has small
sympathy for the mercenary theatre
cal hackers and managers. Nine.
Petrova is supported by cast of up-
usual excellence including Wilmuth
Merky, who plays opposite the gifted
star.
A very amusing Drew comedy The
Model Cook" will complete this
very splendid show. Tomorrow, Vic
tor Moore, Creator of Chimmie Fad
