The reception committee extended .he icy hand when the guests arrived. One member of the committee, dressed up like an undertaker, grabbed my right hand and pressed a piece of ice in it.

mNDIANAPOLIS will “play” tonight and even dance a lot for a noble cause—that of boosting the N. V. A. fund. This fund takes care of the sick and aged actors. Tonight at the Athenaeum this city will have a chance to help the actor. This is asked only once a year. Artists from Keith's, the Lyric and the Palace will take part in a program of special stunts during the dance. The public has been buying tickets for many days for this event and a great crowd is expected. C. Roltare Eggleston, with the aid of the actors from every vaudeville house in the city, has arranged a great dance program. The Royal Peacock Orchestra will furnish the music for the dancing. One of the special stunts will be a real Indian dance done by the Hopi Indians from the Lyric. Eggleston wij stage many surprise stunts during the big affair. Collections have been taken up this week at Keith's and the Palace and this money will be sent to the benefit fund of the national vaudeville artists. This. fund was increased yesterday when Van and Schenck of Keith’s bill piloted a street car over the downtown tracks during the noon hour. The street car company furni. led the car and gave Van and Schenck the right of way. Traffic was stopped at times, but the actors got in some great advertising for the dance tonight. Bill Barrett, generally known as “Big Bill” among the street car men. was on hand to see that Schenck didn’t let the car run wild, but Schenck was a motorman years ago before he became famous on the stage. The Athenaeum will be a grand old place tonight and, as the actors say, “there will be a hot time in the old town tonight.”

were in costume. A mock trial was j held and those who were not in fancy costumes were fined one grin. There was something doing every minute. Ace Berry of the Circle Theater furnished a '‘special’ movie reel and presented Rachel Jane Hamilton in a song recital. Chance, Dithmer and others congregated at a special soft drink bar and sang the songs of long, long ago. A jazz orchestra was present and everybody danced. ' Near the midnight hour everybody stopped dancing long enough to visit a lunch counter which contained every kind of sandwich known to the civilized world. Just when I thought of going home Eddy Waller, Miss Jean Oliver and all the members of the Grand Players at English's arrived to join in the fun. It was sure some night for the Kiwans Club members and about 200 guests.

WATER COMPANY’S USE OF PROPERTY UPHELD BY COURT Not Within Province of Commission to Pass Judgment, Geiger indicates. Judge Ferdinand Geiger, hearing injunction suit of the Indianapolis Water Company against the public service commission in Federal Court, today indicated it is not within the province of the commission to pass upon the company’s use of its Monument Place office property and other lands which have increased greatly in value. This is because the increased value is not applied directly to public service, he said. The company purchased the Monument Place property for $32,000, it is said, and according to the company’s appraisal it is now worth $373,799. Other lands upon which wells are located have also increased greatly in value, it is said. Taylor Groninger, city corporation counsel, in questioning Earl Carter, chief commission engineer, attempted to show that the company should deduct the land appreciation from its property valuation. Unless it is shown that the land is held at appreciated values for fradulent purposes It is not within the province of the court to question the company's judgment, Judge Geiger said. Carter valued physical property of the company of a 1922 Inventory on a ten-year price average,basis at $lB,487,817. Additions and betterments since 1922 of $1,000,000 should be added he said. The surface of the earth is rarely free from seismic disturbance.
