"klna, Queen, Joker,,

Sydney Chaplin proved himself a highly entertaining comedian in his own production of King, Queen, Joker."S which was shown at the Eaglee theatre amid applause last night. The scenes of the comedy are laid in a mythical kingdom and MT. Chaplin plays a dual role, that of king and of a barber, in the story. The plot is good and the sit uations are highly thrilling. It is a picture that is worth going far to see. It was written and directed by MT. Chaplin. Lottie MacPherson plays opposite the star.

To illustrRte what VIC mean let us
point out that the average price of ten
representative railroad bonds forming
part Of the Tribune daily averages
has advanced about 1212 points, or 1S
per cent, since last June. The average
price of ten industrial bonds has ad-
vanced "a points, or 1913 per cent, in
the same period
Taking particular issues which may
be accepted as standards for whole
classes of bonds, the rise in bond prices
since the middle of last year has re-
suited in reduction in the yield on
Atchison, Topeka g. Santa Fe general
IS from 5.44 to 4.53 per cent, the yield
on Union Pacific first and refunding As
from SAT to 4.bS per cent and tho
yield on United States Steel sinking
fund 5s from J,40 to 490 per cent
These are gilt-edee bonds, representa-
tive Of class.
Any one who now demands the rate
of return prevailing early last summer
must go into an inferior class Of bonds
to find it. The investor should note
also that funds invested at the present
tine in Liberty bonds of the fourth
loan gives yield 1.18 per cent less
than was obtainabie on the same in
vestment in the middle of 1927. Going
into class Of bonds step removed
from gilt-edge, We find that the I'd
Justment in the price OF money has
been equally pronounced A general
idea may be gained from the change in
return on the following particular is
sues; the yield on Montana Power IS
has dropped from 6.55 to $40 per cent
on United States Rubber 90 from 7.15
TO per cent, on Liggett & Myers To
bacco rs from $50 to $50 per cent, on
Kansas City Southern refunding S.
from l.35 to 60 per cent and on Mis-

Answer In general preferred stock

moro classes, and in case of Dissolution
preferred shareholders receive prcfcl
cncc but there arc many variatio
from this rule and corporations are
liberty to fix the conditions for po
ticipation in earnings in almost AZ
way they sec Gt. In many instanc
preferred shares participate in carr
ings above the stated rate, either d
rcctly by cash disbursement or b.
declaration of stock dividends,
though there are exceptions to thi
rule. Tho preferred stock provision
of +. W Woolworth & Co. follow
"Thc preferred stock is entitled to
cumulative dividends at the rate Of
per cent per annum and to no further
SlHlc III INC surplus pTolllS. AZ IL 1c-
dcemablc in whole or in part at any
time, upon three months notice, at
$125 share and accrued dividends"
Tho company's charter provides that
no dividends may be paid on the com
mon stock until there shall first be
accrued and maintained, in addition to
special surplus account, at least a
further surplus of 81 600 900, and in no
event shall any dividend in excess Of
4 per cent per annum be declared on
the common stock until the said sur
plus shall amount to and be main
tanned at not less than $1,000 900 The
amount of preferred stock cannot be
increased except with the consent Of
at least two-thirds in interest Of the
outstanding stock, both preferred and
common. Upon any dissolution, liqui-
dation, merger or consolidation, or dis
tributjou Of capital holders Of pre-
ferred stock arc entitled to $120
share and accrued dividends before
any payment may be made or assets
distributed among holders OF common
stock These conditions form the
more common charter terms. In some
instances there is only one class Of
stock, as for instance, the Great
Northern Railway. The capital of this
road originally authorized vas $40.000,
600, consisting of $4,000, 900 common
and an equal amount Of 6 per cent non
cumulative preferred. The common
stock was never issued, and at the an
nual meeting October lq, 1898, thc
right to issue common stock WAS SUI
rendered and d resolution passed by
the stockholders providing that the
capital stock should consist Of only
one class, with uniform privileges and
rights. Although this class Of stock
is termed preferred IN reality ii is
4 common stock.
