BRONCO BILLY" WILL
 VISIT. PINE BLUFF
MOVING PICTURE HERO WHO HAS MADE FORTJNEe ONCE WAS \
 COTTON BUYER HERE.
G. M. Anderson is None Other Than Max ArOnsOn, Brother of
 Ed ArOnsOn.

G. M. Anderson, Max Aronson, a former Pine Bluffian who hac made thousands of dollars as nov ing picture producer and actor, who formerly bought cotton in this city and who originated the "Broncho Billy" hero character, will arrive in Pine Bluff today to visit his brother, Ed Aronson, and other relatives. He has been spending several days in Memphis a guest of his sister, Mrs. Louis Roth. former Pine Bluff resident. He will remain here sever al days. Hundreds of Pine Bluffians, who have seen moving pictures in the past two or three years, will readily recognize "Broncho Billy when he appears on Pine Bluffs streets.
 And Broncho Billy, the desperado, hero of hundred gun fights, sought by a score of sheriffs, shot no less than 2.0O0 times hy count and killed on n different occasion, he really is.
 Despite his sensational career Bron- cho Billy is still hale and hearty and none the worse for wear-eXcept a few bruises and a powder burn or two where some desperate william flr cd too close to him.
 Of course his real rame isn't RronCho Billy. That's the way ne known out west and on the picture screens. G. M Anderson is the way that this hero of "the movies signs himself. Anderson will be accompanied by G. Matsu. the Japanese who has ap- peared on numerous occasion on DIG ture films in Pine Bluff theaters. Anderson originated Broncho Billy. It has made him famous the world over. The picture stories of the out law. gun-man, gambler. ranger ana cowboy have peculiarly gripping interest about them. because MT. An derson has made study of the west l in it's characters and plays them wlth close regard to consistency and ac- tual reality.
 There was time when MT. Ander- son was a cotton buyer, but the lure of 'the movies" was too strong anu he is now a partner in one Of the biggest film making corporations m the world.
 His success has been sensational and for four years past his Broncho Billy picture. have, been feature ol his companys work. 8 2

BRYAN HOLDS THE KEY.

While it is not certainty that William Jennings Bryan is to be a member of President Wilson's cab inet, yet the New York World, fearing a clash and possible injury to the party, is suggesting that Speaker Champ Clark be not reelected speak CT Of the House of Representatives. It insists that the selection of Colonel Bryan as cabinet officer would glratly embarrasa the administration ia tAat Speaker Clark and the Com moner are not on speaking terms.
 IL is not believed that Colonel Bryan will desire a cabinet portfolio. His closest friends say that he pre- tors to remain ''looker on" It is not thought that Governor Wilson will insist on Colonel Bryan accepting a cabinet appointment, knowing too well the coldness that natul ally ex- ists between Champ Clark and the Nebl askan. It would only stir up a hCinctS nest ana IL mlSul DflHS OH opposition to the Wilson policies by Mir. Clark and MT. Underwood 'should MT. Wilson shove Colonel Bryan on the House leaders.
 Mr. Clark's defeat at Baltimore for tho nomination is due to the activities of Colonel Bryan, While the conVen- tion might be wholly responsible for his downfall at the national conven- tor. Colonel Bryan's influence was directly the cause of Champ Clark's defeat and especially after MT. Clark entered the convention as the strong est aspirant for the presidential 'hcnor.

The work is done under the direc-
