ORDINANCE IS DEFECTIVE
Election forVeting Electric Light !
Bonds Will Net be Held.
From recent development· it ap
pear· that no election will he held
on April 7 for the purpose of determ
ining whether or not Waxahachie
et)ail issu»* bonde for the establish
ment and maintenance of an electric
light plant. The election has been
declared off, for the present at least,
for the reason that the ordinance
under which it was to have been
held was defective.
City Attorney Chapman was seeu
this morning by α reporter in refer
ence to the matter and he made the
following statement:
"It is a fact that the election will
not be held because of the reason
that the ordinance was not drawn
up to conform to the statutes. I
never saw th«> ordinance until the
night it was read before the council
and passed by that body, and con
sequently I do not know who wrote
it. Th»r·» were two or three defects
In it which render it of no force. In
the first piace it did not specify how
long the bonds were to run or how
much interest they should draw. In
other instance the ordinance stated
that the bonds were to be used for
establishing, maintaining and o(>er·
ating an e|*»rtric lijrht plant. Bonds
can be issued for the establi«hment
of the plant, but not for its opera
tion, this being expresslv forbidden
by the statutes "
Mr. Chapman said he did not
know what further action would
b# taken with reirard to the matter,
but supposed it would come up foi
another hearing before the council
at its next resmiar meeting·

MRS. JESSIE_ SOUTHWICK
Will Appear at Trinity Univer·
sity Soon.
The department of oratorv of
Trinity University announces the
coming of Mrs. Jessie Eldridge
Southwick, of Kmerson College of
Oratory, Boston, Mass., on the
evening of March 24. Mrs.
Southwick is the wife of Mr. Henry
Lawrence Southwick, president of
Kmerson College, the largest school
of oratory in America.
Mrs. Southwick enjoys the envia
ble reputation of being one of the
finest impersonators in this coun
try, and Waxahaehie, as well as
Trinity University, should feel
proud of so rare an opportunity to
hear this gifted woman. It is
through a strong personal friend
ship existing between Miss Randle,
instructor of oratory at Trinity, and
Mrs. Southwick that the latter was
induced to make a tour of Texas.
In the regular professional en
gagements of Mrs. Southwick she
never appears for less than |130 and
$200 an evening, but owing to her
personal plans she will appear at
Trinity for a much less amount,
which enables the department of or
atory to sell tickets for theoccasion
at the reduced rates of ΓιΟ cents for
reserved seats and 35 cents for gen
eral admission tickets. It is hoped
that the Waxahaehie people will
avail themselves of the opportunity
to hear this beautiful interpreter of
human mind and nature, which was
secured through the untiring efforts
of Miss Randle.
Miss Handle says of her interpre
tation of Shakespeare's plays:
"Could Shakespeare hear Mrs.
Southwick on his Macbeth, Hamlet
and other plays, he would exclaim,
'The dead can live a^ain.' "
