High Praise For Corlnne Runkel.
The Corinne Runkel Stock Co which
appears at the New Masonic Opera
House next week in repertoire is meet
ing with immense success as will be at
tested by the following clipping from
the News and Obeer of the 29th Inst
The News and Observer said thai
the Corinne Runkel Stock Company de
served 'standing room only' audiences.
and last night the theatre going public
of Raleigh showed its appreciation of
the splendid plays being given by this
most clever company and every seat in
the Academy of Music was occupied;
while many stood in order-to witness
the play. Early in the night the sign
'Standing Room Only" was hung over
the ticket office window. '
"The play of last night was "Uncle
Josh" er "The Old Homestead" and it
was presented in a most admirable
manner, in fact uya manner superior
to many companies making a specialty
of plays of "The Old Homestead" class
In it "Uncle Josh" was something of a
natural being, not the idiotic guy and
caricature thought by some companies
to be a trus picture of a man from the
country. The play had the home spirit
to it, and m parts, .was indescribably
humorous. The great audience enjoyed
ttyid there was ewch applause, all of
tt deserved, the lively specialties com
ing m for a fuu share.' -
The company m an aO-roand good
one, way n toe lead of any popular
price company ever showing hers, and
at the matinee today and the dosing
performeanee tonight deserve packed
bouses. .The bill this afternoon will be
A Man of Mystery," a stirring melo
drama, aad tonight "Little , Tampa'

Harking back to the days of their
grandmothers, women prominent In
Washington "have taken op the weav

They are called "souvenir rugs."- Hot
are they made of bits of all sorts of
cloth, as sln the old days. They are
woven from . fragments of . modern
gowns." The pretty daughters ot Sena

the fad in Washington, and many girls
have succumbed to It, not only daugh
ters of resident families, but some who
are only temporarily Jn the national

A meeting of the Washington mem
bers of the Independent Order of
Bechabites was recently held here and
arrangements .were made for the re
ception of visiting delegates and past

nual session ' of the "high tentr to be
held In this city commencing Oct 10.
The high chief ruler of the order, John

Wit of Cltr War,
The city has a new filtration plant In
operation which has been Several years
lu building. Water from It is turned
Into the mains, but not enough greatly
to influence the supply. It has been
discovered that the very day the plant
Is finally completed it will not handle
so much water as the City with Its
natural growth of population and busi
ness is then likely to want and that
the clean water will have tr be supple
mented all the time l;y a certain
amount which has not been run through
the filtration plant " This is very dis
appointing. The trouble here Ilea In
the frightful waste of water through
lack of meters.
A strong opposition against the meas
uring of water always shows itself In
congress, even though the plan pro
posed be to give at the regular mini
mum charge a quantity sufficient for
all ordinary household uses and needs
and to let the extra cost dependent ou
the measuring begin only after that
limit has been passed. But for the
activity of those who had meters to
sell this sentiment would have been lr
reslstlble. A small appropriation Is
now available for the introduction of
meters, but the movement must pro
ceed quietly. The privilege of letting
wster pipes leak year In and year out
and of tolerating defective plumblug
many people regard as among the in
alienable rights of an American cltlseu,
with which the law should not try to
Interfere. But unless there Is some
such Interference the filtration plant,
completed at a huge cost will perform
but slight service.

Death of W.H. Griffin-
The friends of Mr. William H. Griffin
