DENTIST ANSWERS CHARGE Dr. Biljeu Asserts Right to rse of Office Sign In Modified Form. Cited into court by Circuit Judge Morrow to ehow cause why he should not be punished for contempt, for dis obeying a court order restraining his use of the name "Wise Dental Com pany." Dr. V. R. Bllyeu. a dentist for merly connected with that corporation, declares In an answer filed yesterday CLERK. KJTEELING, AND MRS. MARY SIGNING AS A VOTER. that. he has constructed a new sign for his office In which the name ""ivlse Dental Company" has been eubordinat ed to his own. Beth the original and reconstructed signs read: "Dr. Bllyeu, stockholder Wise Dental Company." In the original "Dr. Bllyeu" was In small letters and "stockholder of in still smaller letters while "Wise Dental Company" was in letters 10 inches high. In the recon structed sign. Dr. Bilyen states, his own name is In letters 10 1-2 inches in height, "stockholder of" in letters four Inches high, and ""Wise Dental com pany" In letters six inches in height. He argues that he has complied with the court's order by failing to make the words '"Wise Dental Company " tne most prominent part of his new sign. Anyway, Dr. Bilyeu says, he has a right to use the term "stocknoiaer oi the Wise Dental Company" for the reas on that he subscribed to and paid for stock In that corporation, by which he was employed for four years. He states that he has a perfect right at least to attemnt to keeD the patronage which he worked up. His argument is that most of his patients knew mm as ur. Bilyeu of the Wise Dental Company. Whether Judge Morrow will consider that the new sign does not violate his injunction Is a matter of conjecture. Briefs have been submlteed on the sub ject and a bitter fight is promised be fore It Is determined whether or. not Dr. Bllyeu shall be Jailed or fined for contempt. LECTURES ON MUSIC END DOROTHEA NASH INTERPRETS MASSENET'S "THAIS." Playing ot 'Meditation From Opera Feature of Event Staged at Meier & Frank Store. Miss Dorothea Nash concluded yes terday, at the Meier & Frank Com pany's store, the last of her present series of lectures on . grand operas to be sung next week at the Orpheum Theater by the artistes of the Chicage Grand Opera Company. These lectures have been great successes ana nave won marked approval from large au diences. Miss Nash has shown unexpected and scholarly ability to interest her au diences. In her lecture on Massenet's "Thais" Miss Nash praised the com poser for his fine sense of musical pro portion and the colorful quality of his music in which he introduced Oriental motif with wonderfully appealing ef fect. The "Meditation" from this opera was played with Jine skill by Mrs. Susie Fennel Pipes, violinist. Miss Nash's subjects for discussion yesterday were the second act from if iin urn iin I I Ben Reisland. Offenbach's "Tales of Hoffman" and Humperdinck's fairy opera In three acts. "Hansel and Gretel." " "Hansel ond Gretel' is drawn from old Teu-tonic-Icelandic-Norweglan legend," said Miss Nash. "To understand the pre lude we must first know the story of the play, as the prelude is musio of the whole plot- Humperdlnck uses his theme in varied ways, a wonderful weaving like an intricate pattern. There are three different themes pre sented at one time and if we study it closely and pay strict attention and no one talks near us in the theater to interrupt our thought, we can unravel and hear each theme. There is the charm and counter-charm. The chil dren sing little songs and the music Is bright, like any kindergarten music with which we are familiar." Miss Nash played on the piano se lections from the operas under dlscus-sic-n. Kerosene Is the universal lllumlnact around Aden. - Arabia.

MERIT SYSTEM PROPOSED Plan Adopted at Peace Conference Creates Board of Chief and Cap tains Matter to Go Before City Executive Body. Peace reigns In the Police Depart ment. Following a flare-up a few days ago, which threatened to embroil lire long friends and play smash with po litical alignments, a peace conference was held yesterday in Chief Slover's office, as the result of which, if the Executive Board gives Its sanction, the vexed question of adopting a method of shifting members of the department will be settled equitably. The plan which was approved by the police committee of the Executive Board yesterday afternoon calls for a board consisting of the Chief and cap tains, to whom Jointly will be sub mitted all applications for transfers, with discretion to act as the case merits. The board. It is proposed, shall meet monthly to take up such cases. A blow at various unofficial and semi-official meddlers In the depart ment discipline, is contained in the pro ject, as it is common fame that not less than a score of Individuals are known to be active and influential in procuring favor or disfavor for police men. On the list are Councilmen, mem bers of the Executive Board and pri vate individuals, who have been instru mental in single or numerous cases in altering the decrees of the ostensible head of the department. Chief Slover has fought continually against this practice but has been overruled re peatedly and has been compelled to sit quiet while men whom he considered unsuited were advanced or transferred. and others in whom he' had confidence were broken. Captain Keller Satisfied. Captain Keller, around whom the storm has centered, denied any per sonal desire, at the meeting yesterday, and asserted that he preferred his present berth to any in the depart ment. His most bitter critics admit that he is highly efficient there. Kel ler says that the controversy, so far as AND CANDIDATES FOR C0TJN- C. C. Craig. it Is of his making. Is In the interests of some of his men who, from lack of influence, have been allowed to go for unreasonable periods to the remote suburbs on the second night relief. His proposal was that assignment to the reliefs should be by seniority, so that all the elderly members of the force would have the easiest work, the younger men taking turns on the two night reliefs. Chief Slover opposed this, plan because or his tneory tnat police work should follow specialty lines and any arbitrary shifting would take men away from the field of their peculiar fitness. Under the present plan each case will be taken up on its Individual merits and men who seek transfer will have their cases weighed against the- In terests of the service. Detective Sergeants Named.
