HAMMOND TURNS TABLE
ON SOUTH BEND AUT0IST

Joseph Werwinsli, prominent South
Bend business man, was arrested in
Hammond, Ind, Sunday charged with
automobile speeding and because he
is a resident of South Bend-the city
that enforces the auto regulation laws
he was held under $50 bond.
WerWinski was making a trip 10
Chicago. He admitted driving nearly
10 miles an hour down one short
grade when the traffic officer who had
evidently been following him, made
the arrest. The fact that he had
two large South Bend pennants, he
believes, attracted the attention of
the bicycle cop" and caused him to
follow the WerWinski auto.
When he was taken TO the chief
of police Office $50 bail was demand
ed and the officers took occasion 10
reprimand him-reminding him that
he hailed from a strict law enforce
ment' town. He was allowed 70 con-
tinue to Chicago, having put up the
required bond. When he returned TO
Hammond Monday on his trip home,
the matter was Strengthened out and
WerWinSki was released.

ORPHEUM

After a notable record of achieve
mentsain vaudeville, Annette Keller
man has turned her attention tenn
porarily at least. to the newer
amusement field OF motion pictures,
and recently essayed the principal
role in a gorgeous production Of
"Neptune's Daughter which will be
the attraction at the Orpheum The
atre the entire week commencing
Monday, June S. Matinees will be
given daily.
This photo drama characterized as
tie "supreme achievement Ia moving
pictures is il seven parts and con-
tains q thousands picturesque and
thrilling scenes on land and in water.
Probably the most blood-curdlinS
scene ever enacted before the camera
is u fight to the death at the bottom
OF the sea between Miss Kellerman,
as Neptune's daughter and Mr.. Bren-
On. as Rhoader, the wolf. This scene
is prefaced By struggle Of the two
principles on the brink Of a precf-
pice, resulting in the precipitation Of
both into the sea below. Another
thrilling scene Is that in which
Annette. bound hand and foot. is
hurled from a SlAty-uNe-lOOl CHI HllO
the water. and her subsequent fight
for life trying to undo the ropes that
bind her.
Several hundred actors under the
direction of Herbert Brenon took part
in the enactment Of this vivid photo
drama, and it required all Of three
months time to complete the produc-
ton Some Of the scenes are laid in
the Land of Make Believe, the beau
tlful island OF Bermuda, with it's
flowers and sunshine and its sur
rounding phosphorescent waters, hav
ing been used as a scenic background.
II is doubtful II any film play ever
shown disclosed such a wealth Of
scenic investiture, so gmuch vivid
action and so many sensational fea-
lures as does "Neptune's Daughter"
Miss Kellerman is also allotted a
scene all to herself, in which she
does her diving and swimming
speciality.
