IN THE SHADOW,
OF THE BARS
BY HICHARD ROE.
Jimmy Hill has seen His Honor before.
In fact, he bad seen him so many times
before that familiarity had bred con
tempt on His Honors part. The last time
Jimmy was before His Honor; the Judge
had promised Jimmy three months on the
rockplle if he ever appeared again. And
now Jimmy had appeared.
Ho looked at the Jugc plteously. His
frame was drooped with a great weak
ness. His eye faltered and could not
meet the piercing eye of nis Honor. Jim
my knew what was coming, and he won
dered how he could evade it.
"Please, Jedge." he said, "send me to
the Boys' and. Girls' Aid Society.'
Those present laughed. All except the
Judge. He solemnly dipped his pen in
the ink, looked down at Jimmy and pre
pared to write "90 days" beside Jimmy s
name on the transcript. Then kind old
Nature came to Jimmy's aid. His body
began to bend and a queer look came into
his eyes. A physician present nodded to
the bailiff to get Jimmy out of the room.
But before the bailiff could do so, Jimmy
uttered a groan and fell to the floor.
They picked him up and carried him be
low to the City Jail, where a physician
Anally brought him back to life. Worn
out Nature had almost sent Jimmy before
the Groat Judge, in whose jurisdiction
there Is no Boys' and Girls' Aid Society
But today he will get his 90 days.

that tho bridge will be thrown open today

Yesterday the monotonous din of com

to the bridge. The flooring Is down on

be completed today.

distributing the loads may prove a blun
der. The car rails are at present centered on
the bridge, and the driveways 3ro on
cither side." Between the car rails and the
driveways large SxS Umbers aro securely
fastened to the "bridge flooring to prevent
teams on tho railroad. Thl3 construction,
engineering men claim, was suggested by
tho railroad company so as to do away
with all possible Interference In running
the cars.
Are Car Companies Pleased?
There is much conjecture as to whether
or not the railroad has succeeded In ob
taining what It raally wished. If the
opinions of competent engineers way be
accepted as a criterion, it has
not. It is asserted frequently that
the railroad company, forfeited a
12-year franchise so as to have
the bridge constructed in accordance with
its needs. Now that the bridge la com
pleted. It is thought that the traffic ac
commodations would have proved better
had they been planned differently. The
plan of centering he cars on the bridge
Is not considered one that will -facilitate
transportation.
Members of the engineering fraternity
contend that if the cars were on one side
of the bridge and the driveway on the
other; with- no largo preventive timbers,
so that It would be easy for teams to
turn in and out. provided the way was
blocked, the construction, of the bridgo
would be much more satisfactory.
The supposition Is now offered that If a
team should start across the bridge and.
meet another, there would be but one
course to pursue drive over the SxS Um
bers In any way possible. Then it is ar
gued that the wheels' of hc-vch!clc would
become wrenched In the small aperture
btween the steel rails a ad t&e lnaer st&e

Aside from this there is naught ut

"For the midweek opening at th Empire
a Lincoln J. Carter melodrama, much
above the average. Is the offering. The
inclement weather of las't night miti
gated against such a large attendance as
the piece really deserves, but the audi
ence was responsive and quick to applaud
the stressful situations, mechanical de
vices and heroics which Carter Invariably
provides with a lavish hand.
"Two Little Waifs" might be a little
longer on comedy and a little shorter on
trials and. tribulations, but Lord bless us.
we don't go to the melo-play to kick tip
our heels. According to our lights we
go In pretty much the same spirit as
other folks attend Ibsen or Bernard Shaw.
Lincoln Carter has bis human nature
down pat He knows that the majority
will run to a fire, crowd around a street
fight and crane necks at the morgue.
Having learned this, he dramatizes cor
poreal tumult and waxes rich:
"Two Llttlo Waifs" Is of a higher order
than most of the shows bearing the fa
miliar label of Chicago melodrama.
A pair of incredibly precocious young
sters are the center around which the
piece is built and the two IJames children
impersonate the twain In a very meri
torious manner- They are bright little
girls, their specialties being particularly
Sood.
Lotta Emmons plays dual roles very ac
ceptably and works hard enough to en
title her to a prominent position among,
actresses of her class. Other members of
the company are capable of all require
ments. The play is well staged. The
engagement la for the rest of the week.

There is a vast difference between fair-priced dentistry and cheap
dentistry. Though first cost to patient is about the same, there is a
wide difference in workmanship and material. Good dentistry can be
secured at a low price here because we have complete electric equip
