Rupert of Hentzau.'' sequel to
"The Prisoner Of Zenda." which was
presented here so effectively some
months ago. is shown this week at
the Metropolitan Theater. Rupert
of Hentzau" is a gorgeous spectacle
and fitting sequel in production and
acting to it's successful predecessor.
Bert LyteIl is very interesting in the
leading role, but is inclined TO be stin
in his action. The same criticism
might be made of Miss Hammerstein's
playing of the role of Queen Flavia,
which was portrayed by the fair Alice
Terry in the picture of the earlier
story. 1t is perhaps unfortunate for
one who sees Rupert of Hentzau" to
have seen the Prisoner of Zenda" for
it is impossible not to compare the

HALL OPPOSES BONDS
 TO IMPROVE PARKS
Believes Taxation Will Be Method Adopted in
 Future

Because the city is rapidly ap- preaching its borrowing limit. Chair
 man Edward r. Hall of the board of
 finance and taxation fears that money
 for park developments in the near future must be secured through tax ation instead of bond sales, he told Mayor A. NJ. Paonessa this morning in conference on city finances.
 Chairman Hall and Mayor Paonessa also agreed during the course of their discussion that s400,000 in school bonds should be provided to enable the school committee to carry out it's program of school building, this figure, which is more than s30V,- 900 less than the amount decided upon recently by the school commit- tee. being an amount which it is ex- pected will be satisfactory to the committee. This would permit of i'm mediate steps to take care of some of the more important school needs.
 When bond sales now in progress have been consummated, the city will be in a position to issue bonds only to the amount of s7S0,000. The administration and Chairman Hall very much oppose dropping below the one million mark.
 At present the city has borrowing powers to the amount of s1,450,oo0. An issue of s15o,oOo has been voted for sewers and second issue of s4oo,0 is proposed for schools, while the common council has approved a s120,0O0 park bond issue, reducing the figure to S7S0,ooo.
 The proposed park bond issue will be made, but Chairman Hall favors allowing the matter to remain in sta us quo for a few months. rather than Q have the bonds sold at once.
 Should the proposal come before he board of finance and taxation at his time there would probably be op position by the chairman. There has ,een disposition on the part of the | inance commissioners to allow no nore money for the south end park i lntil it has been shown that inc 1 'lot has been laid out in a manner ! hat will withstand the seasons. Of | he S120.00o bond issue approved hy | he council. about s30,0n0 would be pent in the south end park,
