Corona had 8 number of subjects over whom he showed his power, and also invited others from the audience to permit themselves to go under the influence, but in some cases the volunteer subjects proved immune. The real thing in the tango line was shown by Elliott and Elliott, the two opponents of these modern dances, while in complete contrast was Mascoff. the Russian dancer, who's dis playe the national dances from the land of the czar to great applause.

Tho scene of the landing of the vast flotilla of boats car- rying the pick and the flower of Ro- man soidiery and their long, silent march on the beach is one of the pow erful scenes of the picture. When the Romans enter the city they are met by Egyptians who are overpowered and driven up to the steps of the capitol amidst fire. smoke and fighting. When the inhabitants of the city learn that the Romans are coming the whole place is thrown into confusion and fear.

U. 5. WILL JOIN PROTEST
AGAINST TURKISH ACTION

Washington, Sept. 12.-Administra-
tion officials predicted that the United
States will join the protest OF the
powers against Turkeys abrogation of
capitulations which were granted to
foreigners, extra territorial rights
and otherwise restricted sovereignty
of the Ottoman empire.
As early as 1856 the sovereigns of
Constantinople granted charters of
extra territorial privileges, called
'capitulations" from the fact that they
were divided into chapters. The Vene-
tians were the first granted the right
OF trial by judges appointed in Venice
and permanently residing in Constan-
tinople.
Immediately after the Young Turks
gained control of the government, the
powers were sounded as to possible
abrogation OF the capitulations. The
reply was unfavorable, it being held
that the new regime should justify its
ability to govern wisely and admin
lister. justice fairly before the powers
would surrender the rights under
which their citizens in Turkey were
protected

IMPORTANT GAINS BY FRENCH
AND ENGLISH BUT RESULT IS
NOT YET CONSIDERED DECISIVE
Won KIuck'S Skill Robbed
Joffre of Great Victory

Paris, Sept. 12.-The German di-
version from their route to Paris,
heretofore attributed to their fear
of the defense works, was simply
a clever maneuVer to escape des-
perate situation.
The audaeicus commander of the
German right wing, surprised by
the resistance of the allies at Guiz
and Compiegne, was rendered eau
tious. and must have discovered the
presence of the army of Paris on
his flank. He showed his resource
fulness by a sharp counter move
ment against this force.
Critics give General Won kluek
full credit for his skill and in re-
ferring to General Joffre's skill
say it was match between mas
ters of the art OF war. Joffre fail
ed, they believe, by the narrowest
margin in gaining one of the most
brilliant victories in history.
