“THE Rounp Up” at THE Boston 
THEATRE 
The welcome that has been accord- 
ed Maclyn Arbuckle in “The Round 
Up” at the Boston Theatre, the past 
three weeks shows that it has not 
lost a whit of its popularity, and the 
capacity audiences since the opening 
have been genuinely enthusiastic. The 
wild scenes of Western life appeals 
alike to the orchestra and the gallery, 
and proves even to a casual observer, 
that playgoers of all classes enjoy 
melodrama. 
There is little call to go into detail 
again about the piece itself, but it 
may be noted that a second view of 
the wonderful battle scene gives one 
a profound respect for the amazing 
knowledge of stage-craft evinced by 
the actor who devised and brought to 
such excellent completion one of: the 
most realistic fights that the modern 
stage has known. 
Special prices prevail during “The 
Round Up” engagement, — 25c, 50¢, 
75c and $1.00. No seat over $1.00.

POLITICAL AGITATORS 
Wuat THry ARE LIKELY To Cost 
NEw ENGLANDERS 
The 22,716 shareholders who draw 
dividends from the New York, New 
Haven and Hartford Railroad Com- 
pany are not the only persons to 
whom the maintenance of the present 
dividend rate is a matter of vital con- 
cern, 
A reduction of this dividend rate 
would cripple many of the small share- 
holders. Incomes would be reduced, 
the family’s clothing bill would have 
to be cut, the expense of the table 
curtailed. [here would be less pin- 
money in pocketbooks. 
But what would the result of all 
this be? Shortsighted persons are 
likely to confine their comiserations in 
time of financial stress to the large 
holders of securities, overlooking the 
fact that the effect of any such cur- 
tailment of purchasing power is wide- 
spread. In fact, it is like the ripple 
from the pebble cast into the pond, 
which may be felt upon the farthest 
shore. Not the shareholders alone 
would feel the loss but hundreds, nay 
thousands, of shopkeepers would feel 
it as well. Upon them, upon the but- 
cher, the grocer, the candlestickmak- 
er, the loss would fall and the effect 
be felt almost as keenly as by those 
persons who received the dividend 
checks. 
Some figures recently made public 
with reference to the distribution of 
the New Haven’s shares throw a de- 
cidedly interesting light on this mat- 
ter. Take Massachusetts, for exam- 
ple, the State in which Louis D. 
Brandeis and his coterie are making 
their attacks. There are 557,819 
shares of stock held by residents of 
that State, which means that there 
is returned to these stockholders for 
distribution to a large extent among 
the local business interests, at an 8 
per cent. rate, a sum amounting an- 
nually to $4,462,552. 
Let Mr. Brandeis and his fellow 
agitators continue their attacks, let 
the Boston and Maine pass its divi- 
dend and the New Haven reduce its 
annual return to shareholders to 6 per 
cent. and what will be the result? The 
$4,462,552 now annually added to the 
spending money of residents of that 
State would shrink to $3,346,914. 
That means a loss of $1,115,638. It 
means that much less in the pockets 
of the stockholders and it means like- 
wise that much less to the butcher, 
the grocer and shopkeeper, to whom 
dividends eventually find their way.
