At The PastEne Today.

Today the Pastime theatre, Pensa-
cola's only five-cent motion picture
house, is presenting a bill that can
truly be termed an all-feature attrac-
ton Despite the fact that he admis-
sion fee to this popular little theater is
less than any other in the city today
the management has prepared a bill
comprised of three full reels, every one
of which could easily be advertised as
a special feature for the one day.
Perhaps the greatest feature in to-
drama entitled AN Indians Mistake"
This picture is something more than
the ordinary wild western picture that
the public has been given so much Of
in the past year. In 1t the film manu-
facturer has combined just the right
proportions of love and pathos to pro-
duce a plot that is stirring, interesting
and even SPELL binding. There is not
an idle moment throughout the entire
production.
The story deals with a beautiful In
dian maiden who has been left wounded
on the battlefield after band of hos
tile Indians have engaged in an en-
counter with a small army of cowboys.
The Indian maiden who, OF course-as
all Indian maidens should be in a story
of the present day-the daughter of a
great chief, is discovered after the
battle by a young Indian graduate of
Carlisle who has assisted the whites
in the battle.

AT LAST
IS AROUSED
Nv Associated Preaa,

London, July 25.--Yesterday's scenes
in the house of commons when the OPP
position denied a hearing to Premier
Asquith, who sought to move consid-
Grafton of the lords amendments to the
veto bill, resultine in the arbitrary
suspension of the sitting by Speaker
Lowther, has really aroused public in
terest in the international crisis, re-
garding which the people generally be
fore had refused to take more than
passing notice.
The Downing street home of the
cabinet and the vicinity of the houses
of parliament today attracted many
curious ones, who, on occasions of
special political activity are anxious to
see the participants in the strife.
At the political clubs and elsewhere
a variety of opinions as to the outcome
was expressed. The liberals believe
that the treatment to which Mr.. As
quith was subjected will tend to stiffen
the backs of the ministers, If that is
necessary, and make them insist upon
the prompt passage of the veto BILL
failing in which the required number
of peers to insure the enactment of
the legislation will be created.
While the unionists generally excuse
the conduct of the insurgents on the
ground that the situation was one of
great gravity, they secretly deplore the
as likely " Iui hilSlll WIN
the country, as heretofore they have
been held up to public view as the
party of order and decency.
It probably will be some days before
either side takes a forward step.
The unionist leaders are awaiting the
result of Lord Landsdowne's canvass
of the peers, to whom he has addressed
a circular inquiring whether they are
prepared to support him in his advo-
cacy of a peaceful solution Of the diff
Guilty through the acceptance of the
governments bill.
It is thought, however, that the larger
number of peers will not pledge them
selves either way. but will find it con-
venient to be absent when the bill is
presented.
One thing is certain-the govern
ment will not send the bill back to the
house of lords until positive of it's
passage, either by the present member
ship or with the help of new peers.
There was still evidence of consid-
cradle feverishness when the house of
commons re-assembled this afternoon.
Speaker Lowther warned the members
that he would suspend the session II
disorders that forced an adjournment
yesterday were renewed.
The entry of Premier Asquith to the
chamber vas the signal for a storm of
cheers from the radicals and nation
alists.
Lord Hugh Secil, one of the leaders
in yesterdays demonstration against
the premier, pushed himself again into
the limelight, and forthwith was bonn
barded with objurgations. 'Hottentot

Very few brands Of moving pictures
have as many friends as those pro-
duced by the Thanhouser company be-
cause there are few that manage to
please all classes like these do. So II
has become a slogan: IF it's a Than
houser it's good" The truth Of this
assertion will be proven again by a
Thanhouser picture shown at the Elite
theatre today. The title is, won by
Wireless" and the absolutely unique
plot of this picture makes It highly in
teresting. Needless to say that the
acting and setting is Of the usual high
Thanhouser standard. II you like good
pictures do not fail to see this one, and
you'll get more than your moneys
worth. Two corking comedies Will also
be shown at the Elite today and Mr..
Rayfield will sing a new song.
For tomorrow's show the manage
ment has secured q great wild west

Of the world. Particulars about this
