Thor Lord of the JunuIe

This wonderful picture in which the great Selig Zoo takes a most prominent part. is at the Coliseum tonight. It fea- lures Kathlyn William, the famous moving picture actress who has been making such name for herself in the pictures where animals are used. The scenes are supposed to be laid in Gen. tral Africa, and a Lion Hunt is stag ed in which the great Thor Lord of the jungle is caught and sent to America to be the chief attraction in a circus. The story is written by John Oliver Curwood, the well known novel, ist,and contains all the thrills of real love story, to which are added the al- most superhuman excitement Occa- stoned when a dangerous and wild beast comes in contact with the human fam ily There is however, a touch of pathos in the story to those who know. because of the death of many animals used in the Selig circus for these pie tures during the great coast storm some time in February. Thor it is un derstood is among the killed. This is the last time therefore this wonderful animal will likely be seen in moving pictures in Phoenix.

VOGUE OF THE WINTER
 VACATION

It is an i'll wind that blows nobody good. We have been hearing con- plaints that the old-fashioned winter was a thing of the past and now we have been having a visitation both of blizzard and an icy wave to carry us back many years to find anything in comparison As a result those who have been postponing their winter vacations have been rushing south ward in all haste to escape the snow and frost and to enjoy sunshine and flowers. The transformation that can be brought about in twenty-four hours is so unique and impressive that one who enjoys it for the first time be- comes anxious to repeat the eXperl- ence. Better than all medicine, the physicians are now advising the in valid class and elderly people to avoid the seventies of the change able climate of the north and to spend the closing months of the win ter, at least. and the first few weeks of spring either in the south or on the Pacific coast The railway and steamship lines rival each other in the attractions they are offering to travellers. It is not surprising that the exodus to the south the Pacific coast increases enormously year by year.
 The vogue of southern travel for winter holidays has so rapidly in creased the past few years that the wonders of northern winter are al- most forgotten. But the outdoors en- thusiast finds winter vacation in the snowbound country bracing and health inviting and a round of pleas ureable enjoyment Many of the large hotels of the White mountain district the lake region of Northern New York and across the border in Canada remain open all winter. They offer special rates and invigorating sports as inducements to those looking for relaxation in winter.-Leslies.

CLAIMS seo,ooo FOR BEARD
Louisiana Lawyer Carries Case to
 Supreme Court

WASHINGTON-W is the value of beard? That is the novel question which the learned justices of the Su preme Court have been asked to de- termine.
 The case in point is that E. A. O'Sullivan, aged about 65 and prom inent Louisiana lawyer, who placed a value of $60,000 on a growth of his beard. 0Sullivan, who formerly was District Attorney, State Senator and City Attorney of New orleans, asserts he was forcibly deprived of his hirsute adornment on election day in Novem- Der 1908. on that day, he asserts, Paul Felix, justice of the peace in the parish of Jefferson, La, and William w. Stiles, a deputy sheriff, conspired to prevent Anthony Maggiore, Michael Christina and number of others from voting. O'Sullivan alleged he went to the polls to advise about the conduct of the election. He asserts number of men imported to the election place by Felix tied his arms to his side. Then, he claims, Stiles seized his beard and, with pair of shears, cut it off. In the scuffle O'Sullivan released one of his hands which was cut on the scis- sors. In consequence of the ill treat ment and humiliation thus suffered, O'Sullivan brought suit in 1911 for $60 900 damages under the Federal ci- vii rights act.
 He waited until his assailants had been convicted of assault before suing for damages. Felix and Stiles now con- tend that the suit for damages was

CH|CK|NNY HAS
 MEMORY LAPSE
Man Charged With Staying His Brother Saturday Night Says He Remem- bers Nothing of the Killing

Sobered after night in the city jail, Lewis Chickinny, charged with the murder of his brother Charles, in the progress of a quarrel at the Chicklnny day morning claimed that his mind was practically a blank concerning the events of the night before. That he must have inflicted the wound upon his brother which resulted in his death, he does not doubt, but just what actuated him to the deed is not clear. He says he has a hay recollection of being called vile names, of finding himself locked in the kitchen of the Chickinny home with his brother and probably his sister in law, but where he secured the knife with which the deed was done or whether he really did commit the deed, are matters he is entirely at loss to explain.
 This lapse of memory is quite at variance with his attitude a short time after he was taken to the police sta tion, when he admitted to a reporter for the Republican that he had quar- reled with his brother. had become frenzied at the ephitets hurled at him and intimated tha in trying to defend his sister law from the violence of her husband, he had been set upon by the man and woman, first being thrown into a frenzy of agony from deluge of boiling water thrown upon the back of his head and neck, and afterwards into a frenzy of fear from the attack of his brother who was much larger man than he.
 With the man charged with the kill ing of his brother, there was trans fered to the crounty jail yesterday, Mrs Chickinny, wife of the murdered man. and Guy Barnes, who is said to have been at the house at the time of the fatal cutting and who afterwards tried with the assistanct of Chickinnys aged mother to stop the flow of blood The elder Mrs Chickinny is also held until her story of the killing can be verified by the investigation now being conducted by Coroner Johnstone and Sheriff Jeff Adams

ORIGIN OF WELSH RAREBIT

The light that the Sun recently shed on Welsh rabbit in reply to H. P. Guyton impels me to act the part of Oliver and ask for more.
 Years ago I was taught that, thanks to the power of St. Patrick, snakes were driven out of Ireland. Now comes a friend whose name is not "Taffy," who claims that ever since the descent of the black pagans, or Irish Danes, upon the shores of Wales such a thing as a rabbit has been un known in that country and that the dish we know as Welsh rabbit" was concocted as a substitute for rabbit stew. If this be true, one can better understand the name which, by anal ogy, agrees with ''Digby chicken" Glasgow magistrate" and Munster plums."
 But who originated this form ''Welsh rarebit?" Grose, who published his Views of Antiquities in England and Wales" between the years 1773 and 17S7, is cited by one dictionary as recording the term, but Grose was a draftsman by profession, not a natur- alist nor an epicure It seems incred ible that he should have known the term and that his contemporary. Nathan Bailey, should have failed to note it or any part of it in his dic- tionary for, nota bene, Bailey knows not Welsh" rabbit" or 'rarebit." /" Bailey does not even know bit" as 'morsel" Even that fine old "cup O tea" Sam Johnson is as silent as an oyster on the subject of Welsh" and "rarebit," but treats us to a rare bit of fun under rabbit" "A com pany of scholars going to catch comics carried one with them which had not much wit, and gave in charge that if he saw any he should be silent for fear of soaring of them; but he no sooner spied a company of rabbits but he cried aloud, 'Ecce multi cuni- culi'; which he had no sooner said but the comics ran to their burrows; and he being checked by them saw it and answered.: Who would have thought that the rabbits understood Latin?"
 But "rarebit," whence came it? Can it be that the great Noah Webster, the father of American lexicography, originated the term? Murray knows it not, and the first reference that I have found occurs on page 125S of a dictionary copyrighted by pr. Web ster in 1847. It reads: Welsh rabbit, h. (properly Welsh rare-bit.) Cheese melted into mass, and usually spread over slices of toasted bread" The same story is told in Webster's S Dictionary for 1859 and for 1863. Worcester, under this influence, fol- lowed suit in 1859, and also told the world of letters that the dish was properly 'rarebit" Following the course of rabbit" through the Web sterian burrow, one finds that in 1879, as in 1890 and 1900, the erroneous statement properly Welsh rarebit'' is iterated and reiterated with a per tinacity worthy of a better cause
 In 1894 pr. Funk's Standard Dic- tionary' announced that the form "rarebit" was erroneous, but not until November, 1909, did the publishers of Webster's New International awake to the fact that the public for more than seventy years. In the current edition is the correction: Sometimes erroneously called rarebit."
 But this is all aside from the main question: Are there any rabbits ir Wales?-E. M. C. Burrows in New York Sun.

The most thrilling part of Kathlyn's latest adventure occurs when she is thrown into the arena where forty hungry lions are awaiting her. "One to Three" is q corking good comedy from the studio of the Essanay company, and has to do with the trials and tribulations of three young men of the "hall-room" variety, ''The Mirror of Death is the Lubin version of revolution in Mexico and has just the right mix ture of thrills and love to make it a corking good picture.
