-ADDITIONAL FUNDS ' FOR LIGHT PLANT BLOCKED IN COUNCIL

Oouncdl refused to suspend the roles to pass an ordinance providing tor an additional appropriation of J31.025 for the municipal electric light and power plant at its regular meeting Monday .iiht. The ordinance was recommended by the board of works and provided for $11,023 for the payment of the first interest on $315,000 bond issue which is to be made Tuesday; $10,000 for repairs; $5,000 for sundry equipment; and $5,000 for 'tscellaneous expense. The ordinance passed two readings but hit a snag when it was brought up for suspension of. rules. Councilman Ford objected to the incorporation of the repair and expense items with the lie in of payment of interest. He stated that he would vote for the provision for interest but wonld question the others. He was supported in his stand by Mr. Walterman and Mr. Thatcher. A unanimous vote being necessary on the suspension of rules the ordinance was carried over to the next meet- - iug. Consider Dance Pavilion. Activities of Glen Miller park occu pied most of the attention of council. Council requested the board of works to refuse a permit for the building of a dance hall in the park. Members of council stated that they were still in favor of introducing some forms of amusements in the paik. Proposed plans for a camping site for tourists on Roosevelt field also oame under the censure of certain members of the city body. Councilman Ford stated that the proposed plan "should be nipped in the bud." He further urged that the eld be taken care of and "sometime when the city is better fixed financially we should erect a monument on this field, which will become nationally historic." Opposes Filling. Bather Griffin White appeared before the board stating that she rep repented the Republican woman's city organization which was opposed to the closing of the old National road. She stated that if necessary protests would be filed. Richard Laeber, member of the state board of conservation will appear in protest against the closing of the road If it is necessary, according to Miss White. She stated that this was a historic monument in one of the most famous national highways. Third reading of the ordinance disannexing Fairview Heights and the Ratliff addition was passed by the board. The monthly report of the financial condition of the city light plant was received and placed on file. It showed that there was a balance of $13,477.20 j on the first of March, that the oper-r-tirtg income during the month was 541,704.01 and the non-operating income was $513.13, making a total of $55,712.34. The operating expense was $23,670.66, building and equipment, $11,326.01 and that $1,250 was paid into the Sinking Fund, leaving a balance of $19,465.67 on the first of April. I The Theatres V RICHARDS AT WASHINGTON For over two hours "Richards", the magician, playing this week at the Washington Theatre, held the wondering attention of his audience, Monday night. From the opening . until the close, every minute during the performance was filled with some new exhibition of wizardry. All of the old tricks and many never seen here before are performed. - One of his demonstrations Is the "Levitation." Here he tells the audience he mesmerizes a lady assistant, and Causes her body to float, apparently unsuspended, in mid air. Richards' most Interesting feature is in what he calls thought transference. This Is accomplished with the aid of an assistant upon the stage, while Richards is in the theatre auditorium. MURRETTE A perfectly balanced cast, artistic direction, an enthralling 6tory, unsurpassed scenic effects and settings combine to make "Gilded Lias," Eugene O'Brien's latest Selznick picture, now showing at the Murrette theatre, a thoroughly satisfactory entertainment. In the role of Hester Thorpe. Martha Mansfield, who plays opposite Eugene O'Brien, deserves particular mention for the excellent portrayal which she gives of a young girl enmeshed in the net of her mercenary aunt's ambitions. Later, as the disillusioned and disgusted wife, fighting her moral battle when the man she loves tries to persuade her to run away with him, she rises to splendid heights of repressed emotion more COJJLEASILY?
