THE ROYAL

The Royal presents the feature film
The Southerners." n dramatic adap-
tation of the famous novel by Cyrus
Townsend Brady.
1t was in the early spring of 1861
that Boyd Peyton came home to Mo-
bile after his first cruise as an officer
Of the United States navy. Coming
home To Mobile meant very great
deal to Boyd. 1t meant coming back
To his father, to his brother, and to his
mother but. above all, it meant coming
back to Mary Amman.
Mary AMMAN was divided i'm her affec-
tions between Boyd Peyton and Robert
barrow. But before Boyd had been
long in Mobile, a love for new idol
sprang up i'm Mary's heart, which COM
pletely overshadowed her feelings for
both men.
The name of this new idol was The
Southern Cause. Mary. a Southerner
heart, and soul, welcomed the rupture.
So, too. did all the other loyal citizens
of Mobile. All, that is, but Boyd Pey-
ton. His love for the South was more
than counterbalanced by his love for
the country. and his duty as an officer
of the United States Navy.
At her birthday party. Mary AMMAN
rising in answer to toast, babe none
To drink to her who did not love her
and forbade any to love her who did
not love the South. Boyd, who loved
the South devoutly, and Mary more
than North or South or East or West
drank the toast. After the dinner
Mary, believing that Boyd would enlist
in the Southern Cause. promised tc
marry him.
That night. the young officer suffer
ed tortures of INDIGESTION. ON the one
side was Mary; on the other, nothing
but that ugly word. Duty. But in the
face OF all temptation, when BOYD
arose the next morning, he was firmly
resolved To follow the bitter road of
duty-and honor. When the local
company of militia came To the house
before breakfast, and announced "a
Boyd that they had elected him their

always would be, loyal to the govern
ment, to which he had sworn allegi-
ance. In the face OF the Mortified re-
monstrance of his family and Mary
Boyd remained steadfast in his decis-
ion. So. even while he was being east
forth from his fathers house, Mary
threw herself into Darrow's arms, and
promised To marry him when he re-
turned from the war.
But Mary regretted her decision, for
in the days that followed, love for
Boyd grew and grew in her heart. AT
last, when she felt that she could no
longer honorably keep silence. she
wrote 10 barrow. breaking their en-
gagement. barrow got Mary's letter
on the eve Of the battle of Chickamau-
ga. He opened it, smiling, read 1t, and
went forth to die.
Desperately wounded Peyton was
nursed back To health and strength by
Mary Amman. Through her interces-
sion, the outcast was taken back into
the family that had disowned him.
Then peace came upon the sorely-
stricken land. and far greater peace
tn the hearts Of Mary and Boyd.

GERMANS BEHIND ENTERTAINMENTS
HOLDING VERY Strong POSITION
Army Experts Believe That English Will Find Difficulty
DOdgng the TeutOns-Frenc Gain Ground,


Near Brainet on French left CEN
teri, Sept. H., via Paris, Sept. 18.-
There is an incessant roar of artillery
along the entire line of battle in the
vicinity of Braine where for the last
four days the great forces of the al
lies and the Germans have been in
close grip.
The field over which the armies are
fighting is broken, consequently there
is comparatively little visible evidence
of the terrific struggle in progress, al
though hundreds of thousands of mel
ar engaged in this vicinity Detach-
ments of artillery from the allied
front fire shells with great rapidity
at the German position. Overhead
British and French aeroplanes are fly
ing hither and thither endeavoring to
locate the positions of the big Ger
man guns.
These, however, are so we'll marked
that their implacement has not been
discovered and they continue inces-
sanity to launch their great projectilas
in the direction of the allied forces.
German aeroplanes appear to have
vanished from the scene of action.
For aboua a week past none has been
observed, and British sharpshooters
declare they have accounted for so
many that the others hesitate to take
the air
Many dashing incidents are being

recorded for the reckless bravery of
the French troops.
The Germans apparently are adept
at digging themselves in and they
have made their position extremely
strong. Therefore the allies who are
delivering the attack will have a hard
task to advance.
1t appears, however, that the French
and British have gained some
ground at the western end of the bat
tie, but slowly. Nowhere have the
allies receded an inch. On the eastern
end, owing to the nature of the coun-
try, they occupy an excellent position,
permitting them, with the favor Of
fortune, to drive back the Germans
onto the center.
Both armies in the center and at
the eastern end hold their ground
With marvellous tenacity and fighting
is SO severe everywhere that casualty
is great. Many detachments of Ger.
man stragglers have been cut off.
The military authorities decline to
make known anything regarding the
number of prisoners, but there are
many of them. The allies command
ers appear to feel no doubt concern
ing the final result of the present
stage of the operations. They seem
aware that the fighting means a terri
BILE loss of life, hut their troops show
readiness to pay the price to insure
success.
