The Acid Test" Vitagraph in two
parts Maurice Costello and Mary
Charleson acquit themselves with
great credit in this dramatic presen-
tation. A society belle who has been
secretly accused of marrying for
money stands the "acid test" and dis
closes a heart of gold. The plot is
admirably sustained throughout and.
right up to the last minute, the audi
ence is kept in doubt of the outcome.
There are two kinds of love. One
demonstrative and the other reserved.
The latter was the love that made a
husband doubt his wife's attitude
towards him. He puts her TO the test
by having himself declared a bank
rupt and pretends that he is ruined.
There is something extremely salts
fying in a picture OF this character.
1t is a lesson and gives a better under
standing Of true womankind..

This is an extract from a letter
written by Andrew Carnegie to asso-
ciates in the steel Industry in 1899
relative to the steel market, and which
was read today by J. M. Dickinson
United States attorney, in the suit in
stituted here to dissolve the United

declaring:
"The Illinois Steel Company is 9,00f

Dickinson argued that Carnegie's

solely to stop competition and thus
control the market.

asks that the greatest corporation In

possible that they are merely waiting
