BUFFALO BILL AT THE
BUTLER THEATER TODAY

Part of the program of the But
Ter theater this sevening will be a
special released film of the Selig
company, entitled, Ranch Life in
the Great Southwest which was
posed for by Buffalo Bill and his
famous troupe of cowboys and In
dams. This picture is considered
by many who are in a position to
know to be the best ever released
depicting cowboy life. All the
scenes are true to nature and the
photography is exceptionally good.
1t will be well worth the price of
admission alone.

BITS
OF HUMOR AT
The BOILER
CELEBRATED FILMS HAVE BEEN
SECURED FOR TODAY'S
PERFORMANCE.

The program of the Butler theater
today consists of the following:
The Call of the Blood" is one of
those Kalem Indian pictures which
is about the best Indian portrayals
on the market. 1t demonstrates
that the call of the blood is strong
er than the influence of education
and environment seems to prove
that it is difficult to overcome the
impulses bred in the blood for
generations. Mrs. Barrington's
House Party" is delicate comedy,
with choice bits of humor running
through it, strengthened by a heart
interest as attractive as it is strong
ly marked. There is an elopement
and secret marriage, and in the
end the usual happiness is the clos
ing scene. Tom Hurley, the man
who made Casey Jones famous, still
continues to please the patrons, in
a way that is purely original. Ev-
eryone is always prepared with a
hearty laugh when Toms appear
ance is announced. In addition the
exceptionally interesting picture
Ranch Life in the Southwest" will
be shown. 1t is needless to say
that it will be witnessed by large
crowd as it is a picture that will
please everyone who sees it.

GOVERNMENT WITHOUT
SUFFICIENT ALLIES
Present Prospect is That the coun-
try VIII Soon be Stirred BY Anoth-
er General Election--irish Leader
Declares NstionaIists viii Not sup
port Program.
sBy Associated Press,

LONDON. Feb. 2l.-The players in
the game Of politics threw their cards
upon the tables in the house Of cont
mons today. The government is with
out the allies necessary 10 carry leg
isiation and the present prospect Is
that the country will be stirred up
by another general election within
a few months. Premier Asquith an
nounced that the financial orgaHiza-
ticn win be put ahead of the propos-
els 20 curb the power of the house
of lords. John Redmond. the Irish
leader. declared fatty that the Ma
tionalists would not support that pro-
gram.
The Laborities are holding meet
ing to decide their course. They will
probably follow In the footsteps Of the
irish members.
viii Favor Lords.
The government may be able to
adopt the budget by the grace of the
Conservatives. who possibly will vote
for II In order 20 avert financial chaos
aud keep the wheels of the empire
turning. But the enactment of the
budget will. as Mr. Redmond pointed
|out. leave the winning cards in the
hands of the lords, who then will be
free to reject the hill for the reform
ing OF their house and force anoth-
er election.
The meeting of parliament today
was momentous one for the cabi-
nets policy was not revealed to the
country until the moment Premier
Asquith took the floor Seldom in
the history of the house have its pro-
ceedings been watched with more In
tense interest by the small but dis
assembly of spectators who
were able to gain admission and the
millions who depend upon the news
papers for their information
Mr.. Redmond and his IRISH col
leagues controlled the course OF
events. HIS announcement that the
irish members would not support the
prime minister was the sensation of
the day and it appears to have set
tied the administrators fate.
IL Is reported that As Radicals have
declared Their intention Of supporting
Mr. Redmond against the govern
ment.s action and that great pressure
Is being brought to bear from the
Radicals to induce Mr.. Asquith TO re-
sign forthwith.
Would Amend Kings Speech
Austin Chamberlain will propose an
amendment to the kings speech In
favor OF tariff reform and imperial
preference. At the same time deplor-
Eng the IA -yre Of the ministers TO
recognize in the speech the nature
and gravity of the state OF trade and
