HAS REAL PLOT.

~One Girl i'm a Million" the attrac-
ton at the oliver this afternoon and
tonight has along with the lively com
edy and pretty music quite an inter-
esting story. in fact there are several
cleverly constructed dramatic situa-
lions. The comedy is clean and plen-
tiful-a regular laughing festival IS
this new piece. There is plot that
runs along something like this
Mrs. Van Allen Blakely. who has
money 10 burn, and "A palaual villa on
the Huds n is giving a house party,

when the plot succeeds. HighbrOw
Jimmy. who, by virtue Of an inter-
cepted telegram. is impersonating the
guest Of honor, Ovsrhears the plot and
makes the widow put him in as candi-
date.
The guardian colonel. being more
intelligent than most musical comedy
colonies and suspicious OF fortune
hunters. devises the ingenious fiction
that one of his wards was her faith
ers favOrite and Is TO inherit the
whole fortune. But he declines to tell
which. Also, in order further to con-
found the matrimonially mercenary,
there is a necklace belonging to the
sisters. and q rumor among the guests
that the one who wears it is the heir
ess AS they wear II turn and turn
about this leads to complications and
causes Jimmy to receive frequent and
contradictory instructions from head
quarters as TO which Of them he is TO
make love TO.
He cuts the gordian knot by steal
ing the necklace. But, under emo
bling influence Of having fallen in
love with Marie, and because suspic-
ion of the crime has fallen, as of
course il would, upon the harmless,
necessary. leading juvenile. who has
fallen in love with Louise, he returns
Il ingeniossly 10 the coloneTs pocket.
There are a lot more complications
after this, including the appearance
of the guest Jimmy has been imper-
sonating and the Illustration by Jim

70 steal the necklace for himself.
But in the end Jimmy cOnfesses his
crime to Marie, and it comes out that
he has been more sinned against than
SHINING after all. Marie fOrgives him
very prettily, her guardian cOncurring.
'eBurnie the Badger" is thrown out of
the window, Harry and Louise are
forgiven for having eloped-at least
they meant to elope, but missed the
boat-and the chorus comes prancing
in for the finale.

as 'sTIighbrow Jimmy and associates
with him are such talented ones as

Appeals to People
 to Remain Calm

Washington, August 3.-President Wilson today appealed to the people of the United States to remain calm during the war in Europe. He de- clared the United States owes it to mankind to help the rest of the world during the present crisis.
 The President declared the United States could gain great and perman- ent glory during the present trouble provided no one lost his head. The president urged that nothing be done in America to add to the excitement of the world. There is sure to be in convenience to the financial institu- tions of the country, he told the cal lers, but added that the administra- tion is fully prepared to help out all difficulties. He urged that no cred ence be given unconfirmed reports of sensational nature.
 The president declared there was no, cause for any serious alarm in the United States. The administration is bending every effort, he said, toward getting ships to carry the foodstuffs and other products Of the United States to all the world and to bring home Americans stranded in Europe.
 A proclamation of neutrality, Mir. Wilson said, will be issued as soon as it can be completed by the state department.
 He does not believe there will be any necessity for congress to remain in session because of the situation in Europe. .t
 President Wilson told callers today the United States had not directly or indirectly made an offer to use its good offices to bring about peace in Europe, he said he had not heard of suggestion by the Queen of Hol- land that the United States unite with her country to offer mediation.

White House Authorizes
 Quotations from Remarks

The White House authorized this quotation from the presidents re- marks to the Washington correspon- dents: ....... ..#
 'It is extremely necessary, it is rnanifestly necessary in the present state of affairs on the other side of the water that you should be extreme ly careful not to add in any way to the excitement. Of course, the Euro pean world is in a highly excited state of mind, but the excitement ought not to spread to the United States. So far as we are concerned there is no time for excitement. There is great inconvenience, for the time being, in the money market and in our exchanges, and temporarily in the handling of our crops; but America is absolutely prepared to meet the financial situation and to straighten everything out without any material difficulty. The only thing that can possibly prevent it is un- reasonable apprehension and excite ment.
 ''1f I might make a suggestion to you. gentlemen, therefore, I would urge you not to give currency to any unverif1ed rumor to anything that would tend to create or add to ex- citement. I think that you will agree that we must all at the present moment act together as Americans in seeing that America does not suffer any unnecessary distress from what is going on in the world at large The situation in Europe is perhaps the Sravest in it's possibilities that has arisen in modern times, but it need
 
 ably in the long run. Not that the United States has anything to take advantage of, but her own position is sound and she owes it to mankind to remain in such condition, and in such a state of mind that she can help the rest of the world
 T want to have the pride of feeling that America, if nobody else, has her self possession and stands ready With calmness of thought and steadi- ness of purpose to help the rest of the world. And we can do it and reap 8 great permanent glory out of doing 1t, provided We all cooperate to see that nobody loses his head. know from my conferences with the secre- tary of the treasury. who is in very close touch with the financial situa- tion throughout the country that there is no cause for alarm. There is cause for getting busy and doing the thing in the right way. but that there is no element of unsoundness and there is no cause for alarm. The bankers and business men of the cc cuntry are cooperating with the government with a zeal, intelligence and spirit which make the outcome secure.
 Secretary McAdoo reported to President Wilson from New York that he had taken up with leading bankers the question of assisting Americans in Europe through the foreign connections of banking houses in this country. He said that the subject was being considered by the bankers with every prospect that assistance would be given.

Issues Appeal for
 Neutrality of England

Dr. Won Kuhlmann. counselor of the German Embassy here, today issued a remarkable appeal for the neutral ity of England in the European tur- moil It said:
 "The maintenance of British neu- trality would in no way injure France. On the contrary it might be argued that by remaining neutral Great Britain could give France exactly as much strategic assistance and good deal more effective diplomatic help as according to all reliable informa- tion there is no intention of sending British troops to the continent and as a few British divisions considering the enormous numbers engaged could hardly alter the, balance of power. ;.
 "All England can do for France is to protect her northern coast from in vasion and prevent the neutral ports of Belgium and Holland being used as bases for armed aggression against France.
 "Germany would be disposed to give an undertaking that she would not at tack France by sea. in the north or make any warlike use of the sea coast of Belgium and Holland if it appeared that Great Britain would ihe1NS IIiiS uiuSl ldhiIlS o SoholIioA oi her neutrality for the time being.
 Thus England, without going to var herself. could render France the maximum of assistance she could give her by going to war.
 That England as a neutral power maintaining an armed neutrality would automatically be a greater asset for France and for the termina- ticn of hostilities at an early moment than if she herself were involved in the war is self evident
 Sir Edward Grey, British foreign secretary, stated in the house of com mons today that the house was free to decide what the British attitude in the present European conflict should be-
