"A Million Bid"

Since the Criterion theater. which is d part of the famous olympic building which used to be called 'Hammerstein's Folly has been leased to the Vitagraph Co. it has become one of the most popular places of amusement in New York. In the old days when Hammerstein was bombarding Longacre Square with peans from his own operas. written on bet or for spite, the Olympic, as it was then called, vied with the New York Music Hall at the other end of the building in rawing the biggest crowds in the city The only reason 1t fell down in this laudable ambition was that its seating capacity was smaller than that of it's sister house. After the Hammerstein regime it was taken over by Charles Frohman and re- named the Criterion and as such be- came one of the most noted theaters est productions, musical and drama tic. were made and an engagement at the Criterion was looked forward to as a sure fire hit.
 However times have changed and as the new theaters went up around Long Acre Square the old theater began to lose it's prestige and last spring it was taken over by the Vii :agraph Company as the home of their all star productions. Never in it's palmiest days did the old house play to such tremendous audiences as throng to it now and through it the productions of the Vitagraph Com pany have become famous through out the land. One of the most np- table of these recent film plays is "A Million Bid" which is taken from the famous dramatic success Agnes by George Cameron (Mrs. Sidney Drew).

ASQU|TH APPEALS
FOR MORE RECRUITS
100000 Have Volunteered
Since KitChener'S Call.

London, Sept 5.-Premier Asquith
appealed to the men of England to
volunteer for military service.
Despite the rapid enlistment that
has been proceeding since Lord kltch-
ener called for an additional army OF
100000 men, it has not been fast
enough to suit the government, which
recognizes that the conflict will be a
long one.
In ending his appeal to the country
for more volunteers, the premier said:
I'VE are at present watching the early
stages of what is going to be pro-
tracted struggle, so we must steel our
selves to the task and persevere to the
end"
In the early part of his appeal Pre-
mier Asquith had said:
England has in France and Russia
two of the greatest powers. Not one
intends to separate from the others.
Two divisions 100000 men, of magni-
ficent British-Indian troops, are on the
way to the front. Their association
with the British soldiers and the Do
minion troops will maintain our flag,
which no arms shall ever discover or
dishonor.'
Premier Asquith made it plain that
the government looks for a long, hard
struggle, and that England must cali
still further upon the resources of the
empire before she can hope for vic.

2 GERMAN AIR SCOUTS KILLED
Brought Down In Aerial Duel With
French Near Paris.

Paris, Sept. 5.-A German military
aeroplane of the Taube type was
wrecked and two aerial scouts were
killed near Vincennes, about five miles
east of Paris.
The scouts we're on their way to
Paris and were brought down while
trying to run the aerial blockade that
has been established by an aeroplane
patrol over the capital.
AS soon as the German machine ap'
peared in sight two French aeroplanes
equipped with rapid fire guns set out
to give battle to the Germans. The
German machine swept skyward in a
huge circle in an attempt to outma-
neuver the French, but the latter soon
got in range and opened with their
quick firing guns.
The echoes of the volley came very
family to the earth, where soldiers
ceased all their duties and looked up
ward, fascinated by the strange spec,
tacle. The German machine was badly
damaged and the German airmen were
in fight when a final shot wrecked
the machine and it fell from dizz!
height. The bodies of the Germans
were crushed.

New York, Sept. "a Russian army
of $4,000 men, transported from Arch
angel, the most northern part of Rus
sia, was landed at Aberdeen, on the
east coast of Scotland, on HE night of
Aug. 27, according to officers and pas

From Aberdeen the troops, it is
said, were conveyed to Harwich. Dow

were waiting to convey them to Os-

Every precaution was taken by the
military authorities to keep the trans

through England from becoming
known, and the service on the East
Coast railway lines was suspended
during the seventeen hours the troop
trains were on the journey.

u S REVENUES SLUMP
Mr.. Wilson Declares Some Tax Is
Needed Which Will Yield Certain
and Constant Flow.

Washington, Sept. 5. - President
Wilson personally addressed congress
in joint session, urging legislation to
raise $1OO,00O,000 a year additional
revenue by internal taxes to meet
treasury deficit threatened by the con-
flict in Europe.
Mr.. Wilson told congress that In this
recommendation he discharged a duty
which he wished with all his heart he
might have been spared, but which ne
lperformed without hesitation or apol-
gy, because or the danger IN The, Pres
emit circumstances in creating q mo
ement's doubt as to the strength ana
&lGficiency of the treasury of the Unit
ED States"
While the treasury, he said, Co.,
get along for considerable period,
he pointed out the peril to business
interests of the governments With
drawing from the national banks ap'
proximately $75,000,0O0 of the treasury
balance deposited there.
The president advised against the
government borrowing money or SELL
ing bonds, which would make most
untimely and unjustifiable demand
upon the money market" and appeal
ed to the Intelligent and profoundly
patriotic public" to bear the burden OF
q special tax to meet the unforeseen
emergency.
AS to the proposed taxation, Mr..
Wilson's only suggestion was that 1t
should yied returns at once and con-
tinuously.
Congress listened attentively to the
address, and Immediately upon its con,
clusion legislative machinery was set
in motion to carry its recommends
tons into effect.
Chairman Underwood called meet
ing of the ways and means committee
to perfect an internal revenue meas
ure tentatively drafted in preliminary
conferences. A bill will be introduced
as soon as possible.
The leaders are anxious to avoid the
appearance of undue haste, but they
realize that the taxes to be imposed
will be largely local and prolonged de-
bate might lead to complications. The
leaders, for this reason, will exert
every effort to prevent amendments to
the bill, once it is before the house
for consideration.
The tax to be levied, it has been de-
termined, will be strictly internal. No
\effort will be made at this time to add
\ the tax on incomes, as it is part
the general plan to utilize the in
e tax machinery in great perma-
scheme of taxation which will
ear supplant the emergency tax.
likely that both theater and

it is practically certain that beer also
will be heavily taxed, possibly at the
rate of 81 additional barrel. 1t is not
proposed to tax either coffee or tea.
A suggestion that part of the $780,
100000 additional revenue needed
should be obtained through 10 per
cent tax on railway tickets was OPP
posed. Some of the railway men sug-
gested that a better plan would be to
require a twoscent stamp tax on all
railroad tickets

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of
the ear. There is only one way to
cure deafness, and that is by con-
stitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an inflamed condition Of
the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is inflamed
you have rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous sur
