25 P. C. Additional Seating Ca
pacity en L and Surface Lines
Effective July 1
DIVIDEND IS DECLARED
There will be 2." per cent mere seat
ing capacity en the trains, of the Mar
ket street elevated line beginning July 1.
This hi one of the results nf co
operation between the Philadelphia
Rapid Transit Company and empleye.
The same spjrit of co-operation has
made it possible for quicker schedules
and mero scats en the surface lines.
These are some of the points of pub
lie Interest in a statement of Themas R.
Mitten, nresldent of the company, te
the Heard of Directors.
Philadelphia first is the company's
iiellcy In arranging schedule for the
Market street "L." That the city's
riders may obtain seats during the
morning and evening rush hours the
P. R. T. steadfastly refused te run all
elevated trains te Slxfv-nlnth street.
Had the company ngrccd te such n plan
it would have made it Impossible te
give adequate .ervice elsewhere en
the "I,."
The excess service In running all cars
te Sixty -ninth street would have also
cost P. It. T. SleO.OOO a year. The
money and energy saved have been ap
plied for the benefit of the riders. Mr.
Mitten's report points out, and co
operation of the city and the public
generally Is asked In order that still
lurtner nenents mav no niitn nr.i
Mr. Mitten's renert further mv.
"The ability te operate the number of
additional surface cars required de
pends largely upon the decree of ii.tt.
nnee rendered by the city in clearing
'nmii mm iriicss ei veincuiar obstruc
tion during rush hours, and nlse upon
elimination of the numerous and ex
tended delays new caused by unloading
coal wagons."
Announcement of 3 per cent semi
annual dividend yesterday, the improved
elevated and surface service and the
Mart of the Frankford L line has
caused a spirit of cll founded opti
mism among car riders.
Assurance of continuance of the
seven -cent fare or four tickets for a
quarter, regardless of better service N
also giveiv in the Mitten stntement.
Necessity for additional liis-Ii i.mpi1
and surface lines te nicer the growth of
tne city was peinte.i out bv Mr. Mit.
ten at a recent conference with Mayer
Moere.

BARRIE PICTURES HIMSELF f?
J2V TALK AT CRITICS' CLim
. .. . . - . '
says Only Review That Made Htm Writhe Wan When Shaw
Called His Play "Worse Than Shakespeare"
Londen, June 20. A new Barrle
cult wns born en the occasion of the
famous English author's recterial ad
dress at St. Andrew's. It grew by
leans and bounds, and It rained breadth
and stature when he tnlkcd terently te
the Critics' Circle. There Sir James
gave n new picture of himself, nn
elusive, nlluring picture. In his own
words, it win:
"It Is no uee mr nttemptlns; te talk
te you about the drama of tomorrow.
That secret lies with the young, nnd I
beg- of your net te turn away from them
impatientlr becaiwe of their "knowing-ness-,'
as Mr. Hardy calls it in his new
book. The yenng writers knew as much
about nothing as we knew about every
thing. Yet they suffer mueh from the
abominable conditions et the stage.
Thriugh them only shall its salvation
come. Give them cverr friendly con
sideratien, if only because they belong
te the' diminishing handful which docs
net call a play a snow. lias tne time
come, gentlemen, for us all te pack up
and depart? Ne, no, the drama will
bloom again. Mr. Milne Is a very fine
tulip already, and there are ethers for
j en te water. Miss Dane has proved
that the ladles hive arrived. Fer my
part, anything I can suggest for the
drama's betterment is no simple that
I nm sure It must be wrong.
Criticism That Made I Urn Writhe
"Yeu. have all In the course of earn
ing your livelihood applied adjectives
te me, but the only criticism that
mnkes nm writhe Is nn observation of
Mr. Shaw s. In the days when he was
a critic he began an nrtlcle en a play
of mine with some such words as these :
'This Is worse than Shakespeare.' I
wonder if he has changed his mind? He
has changed all sorts of things. Here
I must begin te be gloomy. Nene of your
adjectives gets te the mark as much as
one I found for myself 'Inoffensive
Barric.' I see hew much It nt once
strikes you all. A Litter pill; but It
leeks as If en one subject I were the
best critic ln the room.
"Your word for me would probably
be fantastic. I was quite prepared te
hear it from your chairman, because
I felt he could net be se shabby as te
say whimsical, nnd that he might for
get te say elusive. If you knew hew
dejected these terms have often mnde
me ! I nm quite serious. I never believed
I was any of these things until you
dinned them into me. Few have tried
harder te be simple nnd direct. I linve
also always thought that I was rather
realistic, ln this matter, gentlemen, If
I may say It wMieut any iil-feeling, as
indeed I de. you have damped me a
geed ileal, and sometimes put out the
llgiit altogether, it Is a terrible busi
ness If one is te have no sense at all
about his own work.
Why He Writes of Islands
"Yeu may sometimes wonder whv
I write se much nbeut islands, and
indeed I have noticed a certain restlvc
ness in some of you en the subject.
There nre mere Islands in my plays
than any of you arc aware of. I have
the cunning te call them by ether
names. There is one thing I nin reallv
geed at, and that is at slipping in
an island. I daresay It Is these Is
lands that make you misunderstand me.
I would feel as if I had left off cloth
ing if I were te write without an
islnnd. New could there be a mere
realistic statement than that?
"At present I nm residing en nn
island. It is called Typee, and se von
will net be surprised te hear that
my companion's inline la Fyaway. She
Is a dusky maid, composed of abstrac
tions, but. net in the least elusive. She
is just little bits of the golden girls
who have acted for me and saved
my plays. There is net one of them
whom I have net watched for nt the
stage deer and hissed ecstatically. She
moves nbeut my coral isle with the
swallow flights of Ellen Terrv. and
melts into the incomparable 'Maude
Adams. She has Irene Vanbrugli's
e.cst te light the beacons te scare the
ships away; and there are bits in
her of many ether dear sirens who
little aware of what I have plucked!
think that they nre appealing complete
tonight in Londen.
"Come te our Island when you feel
ou have been sufficiently mauled by
the rocks of life, and we will give, von I
grassy huts. Yeu can still write 'our
