The horse slaughterers of Paris are on

The marked falling off in the number

Homer's Odyssey at the New Colonial.
On Monday and Tuesday of this week
Gray a. McDonough present at the Co
lonial what is considered the most
spectacular Of all photo plays, Hon
er's Odyssey"
Undoubtedly the Monopol Film Co.
has surpassed itself in this splendid
production. The picture is in three
reels and from its beginning with the
capture of Troy, the creative ideas of
the ancient poet are carried out in such
a life-like manner as to be truely
amazing. From the time that that most
famous of all Greek heros Ulysses
emharks on his eventful homeward
voyage until his arrival safe in the
arms of his faithful wife Penelope. the
portrayal abounds in perilous situa-
tions and thrilling escapes.
To feature any particular scene of
the play would be an injustice to a
picture where feature follows feature
so rapidly and of such unprecedented
quality that even the most critical OBJ
server will find it hard to choose be-
tween them. However, special mention
may be made of few.

IT can safely be affirmed that the
storm scene in which Ulysses loses his
remaining vessel and the last of his
devoted band is the most realistic ever
shown on photo screen.
Then the scene in the cave of the gil
ant Cyclors is unquestionably distinct
i've. The enormous disparity between
Ulysses, his men, and the towering gil
ant must be seen to be appreciated.
Ulysses courage and sagacity are here
shown in detail With the blazing end
Of a ldng POLE sharpened for their pur-
pose. Ulysses and his men destroy,
while he sleeps. the single eye of the
Cyclops and escape from the cave,
bound to the belly of the monsters

the strategy OF Ulysses. Here again the
interest of the beholder is enhanced for
with the departure of Ulysses vessel
from the Cycleps shores, the giant is
shown a splendid picture of Drawn and
muscle, hurting immense masses of
rock in blind wrath at his departing
enemy.
And then, imagine If possible, a pic
ture showing Scylla with her six heads
guarding a narrow passage through
which Ulysses and his ship must pass.
Imagine this frightful prodigy Selling
man in each of her gaping jaws as
the valiant but frightened band drive
their vessel beneath her hideous bulk.

Ranches in Alaska
For Raising Foxes

Announcement has been made by
the Secretary of Commerce of his in
tention to lease twelve islands on the
coast of Alaska TO persons who wish
to engage in the business of rearing
foxes. The islands will be leased for
a period of five years to the highest
responsible bidders
Recently the rearing of foxes for
their furs has attracted a great deal
of attention. Public interest has been
aroused by the remarkable results
achieved in this industry in the east
ern part of Canada. The prices re-
ported to have been paid for silver
foxes, black foxes and other valuable
varieties are almost fabulous. The
demand for foxes by breeders has
been so greatly in excess of the sup
ply that live foxes of the desired va
rieties bring many times the amount
which could be secured for their pelts.
While the breeding of foxes in
Alaska has attracted but little public
attention. the business has been going
ON for number of years. and the re-
quests made to the Department of
Commerce for permits to take wild

ton have been steadily increasing.
On the Pribilof Islands the practice of
taking the Arctic blue fox has been
pursued for many years. In 1912 the
sale in London of the 391 blue and
white fox skins taken on those
islands during the winter of 1910-11
netted the United States Government
$15,096.5s. The London sale in 1913
of the Alb skins taken in the winter
of 1911-12 netted the Government
$20,505.17. At this sale one lot of %
skins was sold for $3675. or more than
$131 per skin. 1t is thus seen that
The blue foxes in the Government
herds ON the Priblof islands produce
exceptionally fine pelts and are there

that on account of a combine of two
Augusta young men and an automo-
bile, there was a marked drop of eggs
Saturday afternoon, in the Augusta

many to chronicle. so suffice it to say
that the drop mentioned above was

fruit that was guaranteed to be strict

that had they not been in such a hur-
ry to deliver the goods that general
results might have been much more
satisfactory than they proved. Having
secured the cases of eggs, they placed

The extent of the damage was not
