There are stiI a few film manafaetur-
ers not included in this continuation,
which is called trust by its op-
ponents.
One of the peculiar developments
of the moving picture business is the
demand for views for special pur-
poses. Manufacturers, lectures on
travel and other topics, prohibition
agitators, and others interested in
persuading the public to accept their
statements, find the moving picture a
valuable adjunct. In a recent case
in which a New York transportation
company was sued for injuries said
10 have been caused to boy in an ac-
cident, moving pictures were pro-
duced in court by the ,defendnt as
part of the evidence. They showed
the boy at play in the street and were
intended to prove that he was not as
badly injured as had been asserted.
With twentieth-century enterprise
the anti-saloon leagues and prohib-
itioist lecturers in various states have
introduced moving pictures as a sub
stitute for the horrible examples" ex-
hibited by John B. Cough and his
contemporaries. The modern sub
stitute shows the supposed drunkard
in he act of beating his wife or pawn
ing his babies shoes and later reeling
down the street. Such views have
been exhibited in number of states
in recent campaigns and have helped
to stir up popular feeling against the
liquor business.
Emphasis is being placed upon the
educational value OF moving-picture
views. The proposal has been made
by the head of the Peoples Institute
in New York to introduce them in the
public schools in order to instruct
the children in such subjects as the
growth of plants. the habits of birds,
or historical events.

Across the newborn Word: in

When Force was rule and Battles

There came queen, a goddess fair

To warning worlds where chaos held

a Team Boat.

Here and there, along the Ohio,
river, there still persist a few of the
olden time ferries. such as were com
mon over the middle west three-qdar-
tiers of a century ago. In one or two
cases, as at Anderson's ferry, well be-
low Cincinnati, the ferry is operated
by steam power. 1t is just fiat boat,
with tail for assisting landings, at
either end. and then the engine house
at one side the covered body of the
boat. At I.awrenceburg, however, the
ferry is of more ancient style still. At
either side the vessel a stall admits
horse. The animal, we'll within this,
operates a treadle in treadmill fash
ion, and this rotates the clumsy pad
/ dlewheel outside In such fashion the
boat is worked back and forth across
the river The same style of boat
was in operation between Halifax and
Dartmouth. Nova Scotia, before the
adoption of the steam ferry in the

simple question to terminate the or

Mime Allen had written that her
land lady was going out of business,
but had sent her the addresses OF
good boarding houses in the neigh

him as their architect.

Steel company. in which he claims So
600 damages for the injuries that he
received as a result of brilliant cleo
trio flash caused by the short circuiting
of two electric currents
The accident is alleged to have hap
pened in the plant of the Indiana Steel
company at Gary. Johnson was work
ing with Harry Frick when Frick at
tempted to remove a buzz bar for the
purpose Of replacing it with a new one.
The complaint alleges that Frick had
been informed that the wire was dead
and that there was no electric current
in it. In attempting to remove the
buzz-bar Frick short circuited the cur
rents and a dazzeIing fash resulted.
Johnson claims that as a result he
was blinded for a week and that he
will never fully recover his eye sight.
His claim is for $1,000 damages.
