Christy Ca banne. noted producer of big produc- tions like "The Birth of a Nation, which he made with D. w. Griffith as the producer of this piece and he has surely done justice to his already fla nous reputation. The cast support ing MT. Lincoln is excellent.
 The feature act Half Past Two, was applauded in great style. The girls in the offering are pretty and talented and sing popular numbers with much ability. The straight man" is the possessor of a fine voice and sings That's the First Thing that Made Me Cry was very well render ed. The blackface comedian had a lively number of jokes that were well received. Bowman and Brooks, two refined looking people, presented an act that Is quite a relief to the ears, playing a number of double horns and comets and the girl had a good sing ing voice. The applause accorded these people was well deserved. Tom Dempsey entertained with a different sort of a monologue which was good for quite a few laughs, and the whirIwiud Hagans, in whirlwind dances. showed exceptional skill in that art Gaumont News was inter esins as usual and contained many Happenings of note.

OBJECTS TO DIVIDENDS
ON ''WATERED STOCK

That reasonable return upon cap
ital invested does not mean dividends
upon the part of the stock of the
local traction companies which is
water only, and does not represent
investment in plant and equipment,
will be insisted upon by the Mount
Pleasant Citizens Association when
the local. companies ask for increased
fares.
At meeting of this association Satur-
day night practically the entire evening
was given over to the discussion of
ington. The members were highly
elated over the promise of the early
adoption of intercompany transfers
at the eighteen points recommended
in the Beeler report. They praised
their special committee which attend
ed the hearings on this subject before
the Public Utilities Commission, and
it finally was decided to invite Will
liam +. Ham. president of the Wash
ington Railway and Electric Com
pany, to address the next meeting OF
the association.
William Henry White. chairman of
the associations committee on public
utilities, who took an active part in
the proceedings before. the Public
Utilities Commission, made report
upon inc proceedings. ne SaIu
there is every reanon to believe
that free transfers will be given at
all the points of intersection mention
ed in the BeeIer report, and probably
at several other points, with the ex
ception of such transfer privileges
as would enable a passenger to make
a round trip on one fare, and except
the places which would cause such
congestion of passengers as to delay
the movement of cars, and thus delay
service.
