There waa no promise that the program would be heavy. Ballads and folk aonga mado up the repertoire, end the audience man ifested ita appreciation to the extent of encoring every number, and even asking for a third in aeveral Inatancea. Watkin Mills la essentially a musical humorist, find probably the disposition to make fun. although he finds It dif ficult to refrain from it In the rendition of serious compositions, was the thing that made hla sppearance pleasing laat night .... It waa the unanimous verdict that the clear enunciation of the alngera was aomethlng so refreshing that it alone waa compenaatlon sufficient Every word waa spoken distinctly; and even In the German songs by Miss Klrkwood the pronunciation and enunciation were so excellent that a smattering of knowl edge of the Teutonic tongue enabled one to understand. It doesn't make .- much difference whether or not Mills Is England's great est baaso. . He elnga pleasingly and there waa a burst of applause at the ending of every number by him. Probably he aang Schumann s "The Two Grenadiers" because ha felt that he muat add aomethlng serious to the pro gram, and because a basso is presumed to render something on that order. He waa more pleaatng In the aonga that permitted the man to bring the laugh. A lamer Mesa, y "Bis." , Prosi the Lincoln Joorssl.

Decides Police Captain Holds ' Position Legally, Council men Must Abide by Its Decision Bsby Trick, Ssys City Official ' " Although the special meeting ef the city council yesterday ' was called pri marily to investigate 'the city health department, no action was taken against that body, and it waa made to. appear that the sole object of the meeting was; for tha purpose of . Inquiring 'Into . the legality of the appointment of Tatrick Bruin aa captain of police. Any action, which tha . council may take In this matter will carry no weight with tha civil service commission or the, city executive board, until the decision of the qno warranto! proceeding which have been instituted in tha circuit court to compel Captain Bruin to show why he holds his position In the police do partment The council may withhold his salary and bring findings against Bruin and may ordor hla discharge, but he still will retain his position until the courts decide the esse now pending, and if the decision Is in his favor the council will be forced to pay hla salary. - ' Actios Takea Wrenurture. - The action of the council la' appoint Ing CouncllmenJI Wills, Holding and Gray a committee to investigate the proceed ings of the civil service commission and the city executive board relative to tha appointment of Bruin was taken In the face of an explanation, of the legs, status of the matter by "Councllmen Vaughn aad Shepherd, who predicted that their fellow members may regret their premature action. It baa been said that the proposed Investigation has been incited by mem' bers of the city council who desire, for political reaaona, to hamper the admin titration of Mayor lne. Prominent at torneys who have made a careful In- veatlgatlon of the appointment of Bruin say that the proceedings of' the civil eervlce commission and the executive board are regular under the charter and the civil eervlce rules and that the captain holds hla position rightfully. Chief among those who hold to this opinion Is P. 1 Willis, a member of the commission, who looked carefully into the matter before he passed oa the eligi bility of Bruin, Shepherd Issues Warfciag. The police committee of the council will meet next Saturday afternoon. - It haa the authority to call in auch wit nesses and demand the display of auoh- records as it may deem necessary. Be fore the reaolutlon calling for ( the in vestigation was paaaed yeaterday Coun cilman-- Shepherd deelared-that 1t was uaeleas for tha council to withhold the salary of Bruin. t . The proceedings of this council will be for nothing, if the court decides that he holds his position rightfully," said Shepherd. "Whatever we aa a coun cil might prefer regarding thla matter will make no difference If it la decided RlnBruIn has been appointed legally, ies lfgaTrTI-n 'Ufflt 111 entU tha court decides that he is not'i Councilman Vaughn waa of the same opinion. He satd the council could, ap point as many committees ag it desired, but the reaulta of any investigation It might make would carry no weight "Let the court decide thla matter, and let ue bow to its decree, aa we will have to do." said he. "We may have a right to look into this matter, but what good will It do at thla time? Whatever the decision of thla council may. be will not render Captain Bruin one whit more eligible for the office or one whit more Ineligible." ' Councilmen Annand, Beldlng. Gray, Kellaher. Menefee.

Shepherd, end Vaughn opposed It "It's another esse' of baby, play 'by the city council." said a prominent city official yeaterday.
