er, negroes. Patrolman Bowron, whom

as he was patrolling his post and in
formed that they had been unsuccess-
full in a quest for free drinks In the sa-

The patrolman gave them q curt
move on" al which he alleged In

~K|NETOPHONE IS
De DEMONSTRATED BY
THOS A. EDISON
Shadowy PersOnages Fit About
on Screen, Laughing, Talk
ing and Singing.

Thomas A. Edison. in his laboratories
at Lieweilyn Park, West Orange,
yesterday demonstrated to a small
party of guests his latest invention.
the k~inetophone. a moving picture ma
chine with a photographic attachment
permitting the pictures to talk" as
they are thrown on the screen.
Ever since the moving picture craze
took hold of the country Mr.. Edison
had been working on the invention
which he is now almost ready to give
forth to the world as a finished prod
uet. The photograph n the pictures
work spontaneously; every sound in
the drama that is being played is pro-
duced perfectly. Not only are the
words of the shadowy actors heard, but
their footsteps, the sound of automo-
bile horns, the crash as the comedy
servant drops a tray full of dishes-all
of Mese are asc plain to the witnesses
of the canned drama as they were
ITO those who saw the performance by
the actors who walked through the play
in the flesh.
The old devices of having actors talk
behind the screens or of taking phono-
graph records after the pictures have
been made have been done away with
entirely. The records for eye and ear
are made at the same time.
The great obstacle that Mr.. Edison
had to overcome was in getting a
photograph that could hear far
enough. At the beginning of the ex-
periments the actor had to talk direct
ly into h horn, which made the right
kind of pictures impossible to get. Bit
by bit. however, a machine was per
fected which could hear so we'll that
the actor could move at his pleasure
within a radius of twenty feet. That
is the machine that is being used now.
A complete drama has already been
made" in these pictures, but only for
experimental purposes. 1t will not be
shown; nothing will be shown until the
talking pictures can carry a Broadway
production out with them.
Mr.. Edison does not regard his new
invention as anything to be taken
lightly. Neither do many others who
have seen it demonstrated or who have
heard of it. The inventor himself says
it is not for the cheap moving picture
shows.
This isn't for nickelodeons." says he.
"Thi is a big, a serious thing, and /
am not going to put it out until l
can put it u the way I want 10.

VOODOO HEALER OF
WORTHLESS CHECK.
Police Say He Sold Stones for
Medicinal Purposes.

Joseph Coffee. who is darker h a his
namesake by several shades, and who
claims to be skilled in the healing OF
diseases and Ills by the use of voodoo
rites. was held in $3.50 bail by Acting
Judge Freeland, in the First Precinct
Police Court today, charged with pass
ing a worthless check on Conrad Elm
horn, of 391 Halsey street.
The negro, who halls from White
stone, L. l., is said to earn his bacon
by the distribution Of various alleged
amulets and charms, especially to SUI
perstltious persons of his own race, for
a proper remuneration, of course His
favorite sort of a sickness-chaser
seemed to be queerly-shaped pebbles,
most of which resembled the name OF
the place in which he resided. A guam
THY of these little white stones were
found in his possession when he fell
into the hands of the police.

HOLD CONFESSED THIEF.

Acting Judge Freeland today held
Frank Tackach. the 2~2-year-old Hun
garian, who yesterday confessed to q
career of crime after his arrest by
Plainclothesman Brex. in $500 bail in
the Third Precinct Police Court on a
charge Of breaking and entering with
intent to steal. Tackach, who had with
him a pair Of brass knuckles, a file
and a broken-of lock, at the time Of
his arreet, told the judge that he had
broken into the stable of Benjamin
Wolff at 16 Elizabeth avenue, with the
intention of stealing a horse.

SALT LAKE THEATRE.

The engagement Of the musical COM
edy Three Twins" is a strong draw
ing card. in fact the big salt Lake
theatre is holding its fullest capacity
OF auditors at each presentation of the
piece. Before the first act of Three
Twins is over, one has been enter
tained by more song hits. effective
chorus numbers. brilliant stage effects
than are usually found in a complete
musical comedy production. BY the
time the curtain falls on the second
and final act. one has been enjoying
two and a half hours of comedy, song
and spectacle. in sufficient amounts TO
make up half dozen OF the ordinary
hits" Of the modern stage. Victor
Morley is no mean comedian of
laughter provoking ability and his eff
forts TO provoke ones resibilities are
highly successful in Three Twins "
Bessie Clifford, that sprightly, agile
singing cOmedienne. is still gathering
in laurels. Her wanna Yama" number
always brings her on less than a doZ-
en- encOres and it can be accounted
the real hit of the musical program.
As a display of electrical stage eff
fects Three Twins" must be placed
well 10 the fore among the most elab-
crate productions OF the day. The pro-
ductiOn is limited 10 only three more
performances.
