SEES ENORMOUS GAIN
In MOVIES PATRONAGE
will Deming, Playing in "The Fortune
Hunter" Is Close Observer Of
Things theatrical.

VIII Deming. that sterling actor, who,
as Nat Duncan, has made such a hit In
The Fortune Hunter now at the
Academy, is a close observer of the
trend of things in matters theatrical. Last
night between acts Mr.. Deming was
asked what he thought about the enor-
nous increase i'm the business of the
moving picture houses.
Il will make prediction, and one that
is not made without n great deal Of
thought" he replied. THE movies are
developing so rapidly and so many i'm
provements are being made in the man.
ner they are presented that people gen.
orally are attending them in constantly
increasing numbers. In twenty years a
great majority of the legitimate theaters
will be putting on the latest picture
shows. Cities like Washington, Buffalo.
Detroit, Cincinnati. Cleveland. &c, where
now many companies play week engage
ments, with few exceptions will have but
two-day performances. These will be
put on principally to diversity the bill.
You see, the cost of high living affects
amusements as well as everything else,
and the younger generation is growing
up with a knowledge that an evenings
entertainment can be secured at a mod
crate price. OF course many things can
come up in two decades that may change
my prediction. The managers of theatcrs
may reduce the price of admission and
bring it down where it belongs, within
reach of all. Who would have thought
even ten years ago that the moving
picture business would have grown to its
present proportions? And it has but just
started. Why shouldn't it continue to
grow as ] have outlined? Anyway, re-
member my prediction"
Mr.. Deming is an actor who has played
in hn iaf nf of N
important productions produced in this
country, is a close observer and his
words carry weight with members OF his
profession.

FRAUD OPERATORS GET
S52,00O,0O0 In YEAR
Annual Report Of Chief Inspector
Sharp Shows Decrease in Crooked
Mail Business.

According to the annual report OF Chief
Inspector Robert S. Sharp, of the Post
Office Department, the amount of money
obtained from the public by fraud opera
tors doing business through the mails
and arrested during the year. which end
ed June 60. 1872. was approximately S52-
900, as compared with the estimate OF
SiL0oo,o00 for the previous fiscal year.
There were over i.0n0 cases bearing on
fraud schemes alone assigned to in
spectOrs during the past year for investi-
cation. and the department succeeded In
arresting 81 persons and convicting a6S,
with numerous cases yet awaiting to be
disposed OF.
The report says that the discouragng
feature to the department in its fraud
crusade is the character of sentences
imposed by the courts. and that in a
number of instances parties. who have
robbed the people of millions of dollars
have received sentences OF only a few
months, and it generally appears in GER
tain of the courts that defendants, who
obtained several hundred thousands of
dollars and were guilty. as charged in
the indictments, have been sentenced to
pay only small fines, ranging from
few dollars to three thousand dollars.
