STAR THEATEH

There is scarcely a man, woman,
boy or girl who has patronized the
ten, twenty and thirty cent stock com
panies but who has been entertained
with the great detective story, The
Man of Mystery" and now the moving
picture manager has gone the "legit'
one better and flashed upon the
screen the eternal feminine in this
line, and, 10 and behold, today at the
Star we have with us The Woman of
Mystery" And she is a mysterious
''critter in every sense of The word.
The peculiar feature about this pic
ture is that no one knows how it will
end until the end comes, hence the
idea of mystery is carried out to the
very last. Yes, it is thriller, and
she is a daring woman She has an
object in life and she risks all,s over
coming many obstacles, winning men
handling them like children, and all
TO crafty her desires. 1t is a unique
production, one of much interest, SO
be sure to see it at the Star today. 1t
is in four reels, and will be followed
by a single reel comedy.

MISS POLK SELECTED.

Former Hot Springs Girl Escorting
Girls From the European War Zone
Hot Springs pioneers are interested
in the announcement that Miss Daisy
Polk of st. Louis is departing from
London with fifty German girls who
have been attending school in Eng
land, and who she escorts to Ger
many. After delivering these charges
safely in Germany she gathers the
English girls attending the German
schools and takes them to London.
She has been directed to do this work
by the International Womans Relief
Committee.
Miss Polk was reared in this city.
Her father was an architect, and one
of the first to come here. He de-
signed the Iron block, on Contra ay-
enue, and the DIR. Garnet residence,
both of which in their time were con-
sidered most handsome business
building and residence in the state.
Her mother operated the Josephine
hotel, the name having been adapted
from her maiden name.
Speaking of the appointment of this
American girl to post of such i'm
portance in this perilous period, the
st. Louis Globe4Damocrat says:
Probably no American woman is
more travelled than Miss Polk. She
has passed much Of the recent six
years abroad and has become famous
as violinist. In her girlhood she
moved with her parents to San. Fran
cisco. where she made her home until
going abroad to study the violin I'M

GERMAN ARTILLERY

GREAT GERMAN AND AUSTRIAN
SIEGE GUNS DEMOLISH STEEL.

Berlin, Oct. 2. via The Hague and
London, S:45 p. m.-An opportunity
to watch closely the German and Aa-
strian artillery attack on the line of
French forts south of Verdun last
Saturday was given an Associated
Press correspondent, who had been
with the Germans at Metz.
An attack which Friday led to the
taking of Fort Camp des Romans as

wards evening it was reported that
| only one armored turret at Fort
Lionville was replying to the Au-
strian fire, ali the other forts being
silent. After that the Austrians Goa
centrated their fire with precision on
this single turret from a distance of
six miles, indicating that it was but
matter of time when the defense
line would be ready for an infaAtry
attack
Fort Camp des Romans was de-
Tended yaliantly. The attacking
forces came within five yards of the
trench in front of the fort before the
garrison surrendered.
French artillerymen in the case
mates of the fort had to be dislodged
with hand grenades, smoke bombs
and fire tubes which German volun.
teers placed against the opening of
the classmates. filling the interiors
with fragments of bombs and sense
robbing gases. Even then the de-
tenders refused to capitulate.
Finally they were given honorable
conditions of surrender, owing to the
valor they had displayed.
The correspondents trip over the
battlefield showed nothing of the ira
ditional battle tumult such as attack
ing infantry, racing cavalry and gal
Looping artillery. The heavy artillery
could not be seen. There was the
tremendous defamation of siege pieces
and large columns of smoke rose
from burning villages. The black sur
face thus created was studded every
where with the white clouds from ex-
pioding projectiles.
On the road a few wounded were
making their way to the base hos
pitfalls. Beyond that the battlefield
gave the impression of tremendous
iron plant with it's masses of artillery,
machinery and the attending noises,
feature which seems to mark this
war more and more.
The German and Austrian heavy
siege pieces were marvelously con-
cealed and placed and their work

ammunition and placed it with as
founding regularity as if they had
done nothing else all their lives,
though now and then the holly me-
chanical process was interrupted for
a few minutes by new instructions
received over the telephone, observa-
tons having necessitated a slight
change in the direction of the fire.

DEMOCRATIC GANG

Nothing Not Dictated by Palmer

"CHEAT AND A FRAUD"
So Says Flynn of White House
Twins and Little Fellows
They Control
CHEAT AND A FRAUD"

Democratic State committeeman and
county leaders who remained in the
city to-day were still dizzy over the
unheard-of procedure of the bosses
yesterday in taking the framing of
party declaration of principles out OF
the hands of the State committee and
placing the drafting and PRONUNCIATION
of the document in the power OF
hand picked committee. This action,
taken late yesterday afternoon, was
the most amazing piece of pollticai
machine bossism ever known in the
State and the charge of Representative
John NJ. Flynn, of Elk, in the state
committee session yesterday afternoon
that the action was a cheat and a
fraud" and "a piece of political She
nanigin' found many an echo in the
city last night and to-day.
Democratic leaders and observers OF
yesterdays proceeding said that IL
showed the hollowness of the Demo-
cratic protestations about the people
ruling and opened to question the sin
ceritv of the declaration for local
option. There is no doubt that
the machine headed by Palmer
Mccormick and Morris controlled yes
terday's meeting two to one and that
it could have forced through a reso-
luton declaring the moon was made
of green cheese if the bosses desired,
and why the men who run the party
organization refused to allow the State
committee to have a voice in framing
the platform passed comprehension or
many men. Some thought that the
leaders wanted to avoid a showdown
on the issue because some of the fell
lows who stand with Palmer and
Mccormick are not as ardent in their
declarations for local option as are
the two nominees. In fact, there are
some county bosses who may not be
for local option. At any rate, whether
it was to shield these followers of Pal
mer and Mccormick or to avoid a row,
it was the most arrant piece of ma
chine politics ever played in Harris
burg, and that is saying great deal.
even when the Mccormick
leadership is mentioned.
How 1t Was Done
The row started when the harmony
songs of Palmer and Mccormick and
Dan Hart were still in the air. The
last of the candidates had been dis
played when a mild hammered. erst-
while insurgent from New Castle,
named G. Fl. Aiken, put In reso-

and publish a declaration of princi-

Vance c. Mccormick, who estab-

has set new high mark for cost of
primary election campaigns in Penn
sylvania in 1914. According to his
sworn statement filed at the Capitol
late yesterday afternoon, he spent
$33.274.73. The statement of the
Palmer er-McCormick campaign commit
tee, which paid most of the expenses
OF his campaign tour and contributed
to the cause of the White House twins
in the counties of the State, has yet to

there can be gained some idea of what
it cost to put Mccormick over as the
Democratic nominee for Governor with
all the forces of the national admins

account of $33,274.73 is as memorable

no longer any sport for poor man.
