Movies" an absolute success in the entertainment of the masses and in the performance of an even greater and more important function, the preservation for posterity of the words and deeds and appearances of the prominent men and women of all walks of life of the present day. The success which he has achieved from this invention will be clearly demon strated to those witnessing the per formance of these pictures during their engagement in this city.
 The silent moving pictures have all ready reached a high stage of perfec- ton at the hands of Edison. It is well within the memory of everyone. the tremendous advance in moving pictures since the early days of the flickering. eye -tiring cinema tograph films that, because of the great ex- pense of their manufacture, attracted at first only the adventurous spirits among promoters.
 The reproduction of the human voice now, combined with the nov ing pictures. is the latest and per haps most wonderful of all the re- suits of Edisons tireless and per sistent work in the realm of electrical science. Those failing to witness these pictures should go down in the annals of history as missing the greatest entertainment of it's kind ever put before the American public.

If there is a real picture fan in Phoe- nix who has not seen the program for this change, they are missing some thing. for the feature Broncho, Tn the Land of Dead Things" is one great picture and a sure treat for those who enjoy a stirring redbIooded story of this type.

AN OLD FRAUD
 IN NEW DRESS
Phoenix Citizen is Re quested to Come to the Relief of a Russian Ban ker Who is in Trouble ill Madrid

A slight variation of the Spanish prisoner" fraud, and not much of a variation, either, has been brought to the attention of Postmaster McClin- tock A letter bearing a Madrid postmark was received by James Me Taggart from a man named SOlOVieff an alleged inmate of a prison of Madrid, who said that on account of the international reputation of MT. McTaggart for integrity and upright ness he addressed him. SOlovieff wrote that it was imperative that his baggage should be secured, for on that depended the recovery of $400,000, which he would divide equitabIy with MT. McTaggart for any services he might perform.
 The letter contained a clipping, apparently of London paper, giving an account of an arrest that had been made in London of a Russian banker, Solovieff, who had decamped from St. Petersburg, with 5000, 900 roubles. Solovieff. according to the story, took refuge in Spain, accom- panied by his beautiful daughter. In all these frauds a beautiful daughter figures, who is to be brought to this country along with his share of the sWag.
 Solovieff and confederate accord ing to the story, had a quarrel n Madrid and the confederate was shot and later died from the effect of the wound. But before his death he de- nounced Solovieff as the dishonest banker Meanwhile Solovieff fled to London, where he was apprehended at the request of the Russian em bassy, and searched. but none of the stolen money was found in his pos session. Proceedings were begun by both Russia and Spain for his ex- tradition. He was finally sent back to Madrid where he now is, and the money is where only Solovieff knows, and he will tell nobody but MT. Me Taggart.
 The letter asks for no money. The sWindle is not yet apparent. MT. Me Taggart is only asked to assume the trust and is directed how he shall communicate with the imprisoned banker. In the course Cf the future correspondence, if MT. McTaggart would keep it up. he would find that the exercise of his trust would re- quire the forwarding of money to Madrid and that he would be re imbursed out of the recovered treas ure
 Whether the printed story of Solo vieff is true and the swindlers have adapted it to their purpose, or whether they have had it deftly printed, is not certain. The fraud is d very ancient one, but it has been worked so successfully for a genera tion that about once in every five years the postOffice department sends out a countryside warning against it. But in spite of that it finds many victims. It is stated that a well known woman of wealth of this city responded liberally to an appeal made some weeks ago, which filled her with hope of a trip to Spain and a happy return, Ieden with treasure.
 Just now the mails are carrying many foreign letters to residents of this city. giving the details of m alluring lottery which is soon to be pulled off at Hamburg.

QUICK CONVICTION
 OF FRED ATWOOD
End Of White Slavery Case in United
 States Court.

The end of the trial of Fred Atwood of Wilcox charged with white slavery in the act of providing the money for the transportation of Rose White from Wilcox to Clifton last July, came to an end yesterday when a verdict of guilty was rendered by the jury in United States court. A motion for a new trial was offered and the hearing of it was set for November 24. In the event of it's denial, Atwood will be sentenced at that time
 The next case was that of Hom Chee, a Tucson Chinaman, charged with living in this country under a cer- tificate issued to another Chinaman who is not now in the country. Hom Chee pleaded guilty as there was little else for him to do. Formerly there was quite a traffic in chock gees as these certificates are called. If the purchaser was detected it was largely the result of accident The certificate bears the photograph of the man to whom it is issued but these photographs were often changed and frequently the pur- chaser looked so much like the rightful owner of the certificate that an in spectOr can not tell the difference But the finger print system is now applied to the certificates so that when a pur- chaser is suspected it is very easy to prove whether the suspicion is correct or not
 On the conclusion of this case, Judge SaWtelle ordered a recess of the court until November 24. He twill leave to- night for San Francisco where he will sit with two other judges in the hear ing of the three-cent fare cases.

NEW HOTEL ADDED
 ID NEW YORK LIST
Continental, Broadway at 41st Street
 Opens Nov. 17.

New York, while well supplied with good hotels, now adds another modern hotel to her long list. Broadway at 41st street, is the very heart of the city and there the Hotel Continental is located.
 To add to it's attractiveness, is the fact, that it is within good walking dis tance of forty theaters; the elegant PennsyIVania station, the grand new station of the New York Central and the Subway and Hudson tunnels.
 The owners of the Continental are progressive people, and have expended $40O,OOO in Improvements, the hotel having three hundred attractive rooms, each with private bath. The furnish ings are rich in mahogany, with brass bedsteads.
 The Hotel Continental will be thrown open to the public November 17th, 1913
 It is a sufficient guarantee of the catering department, to say that it will be operated by the famous Cafe Bou- Ievard" which has feasted so many New Workers, who are judges of good living. The service will be of the same ex- ceptional high character that has made the Cafe Boulevard illustrious among restaurants.
 The proprietor of the cafe boulevard, formerly located at Second Ave, and Tenth St, has built up an unsurpassed reputation for it's lunches and dinners He will continue to serve his 60c lunch and $1OO dinner in their unrivalled quality.
 Each evening an After Theater" supper will be served and there will be at all times an extensive a Ia carte service. The restaurant will also make a speciality of a 25c and soc club break fast.

Edison's Talking Pictures.
 Talking Movies," as the latest in vention of Thomas A. Edison is called, will make their first appear ance in Phoenix on Saturday night, November 15, at the Elks' theater.
 One fact clearly demonstrated py these ''Talkies" is the perfect syn chronism of voice and action. As in the case of the first telegraph, tele- phone and wireless telegraph, the first device embodying the cardinal principles of any new and startling invention, the thing itself has been achieved and has proved it's possi- bility and practicability.
 All that now remained for Edison to do was to make the Talking
