It was some show, take it from the

200 strong, right down in front where
tlic-y could the whole works and
never miss a word. And the show was
well worth while seeing, newsie or

best in the play adapted from the
famous story by Sir A. Oonan Doyle.
The whole company was excellent and
the production was splendidly pre

of the cheap blood and thunder that
one might expect in the ordinary stock

DEPENDENT PERSONS
WILL GET PUSSES
Pennsylvania Railroad Officials
Seek to Prevent Trouble;
Decisions Awaited
With the near approach of the time
for arranging pass lists for next year
officials of the Pennsylvania Railroac
Company are endeavoring to reach
some conclusions as to passes for chil
dren of employes. There is no desire
to cut out any passes, but the company
wishes to avoid trouble through allow
ing people to use passes who are not
entitled to them.
One question that has been raised
frequently Is regarding "dependent"
persons. The rules allow employes to
have passes for the members of the
family dependent on them, but sons
and daughters who are working for a
livelihood and pay board at home are
not considered dependent persons.
However, there is a class who work,
but pay no board, and are dependent
upon the parent for part of their
clothing. In &ome cases the wife also
works.
The legal department of the com
pany decided that, as a wife's earnings
went to her husband and were a part
of his income, she was still depend
ent on him, even '.hough she worked
and made money outside her home;
but, in the case of children, the ques
tion was more complicated.
It has been the custom of the com
pany for some time that children who
earn $5 weekly or over are not de
pendents and cannot get passes, and
this is the basis on which all requests
have been granted or refused in the
past couple of years. However, some
complaints have lately been received
that the roads have no rig lit to give
passes at all where the children earn
any money and the company has
again taken up the matter for dis
cussion.
So far there has been no decision,
at least affecting the entire system,
but It is expected that in the very
near future there will be some definite
plan adopted for all divisions upon
which the status of dependent mem
bers of employes' families will be
fixed.

500 Germans Mowed
Down at One Time
By Associated Press
I-ondon, Oct, 2, 4 a. in.—Dilating
upon the splendid accuracy of the ar
tillery lire and the extent to which
the artillery has been used in the pres
ent war. the Daily Mail correspondent
in France says:
"The infantry has counted for lit
tle in these protected operations. On]
the allies' left wing the men say that
they have nothing to do and several
have complained of spending eight
days in the trenches without seeing a
German. Both armies are tired.
"There was one appalling incident.
Three days ago 500 Germans were
caught in some flat fields with slopes
on every side. The French artillery
took up positions secretly and when
the moment came to open fire the
ofllcer in command said 'make me a
cemetery down there.' His order was
obeyed, the guns accounting for the
greater part of the 500 and rifle fire
for the rest. Tohse who were there
say that not a single German es
caped."
