MAKING MEN TO MEET THE NEW
DEMANDS OF INDUSTRY.

For the past quarter OF a century the
United States has found It's chief problem
to be the scarcity OF skilled labor--men
whose practical experience rests upon
sound scientific knowledge.
In 1890 only 222 per cent. OF the pop
ulation lived In cities to-day the proper
ton IL. about 40 per cent. This means
that the emphasis OF American life has
changed from agriculture 10 manufacture
Practically svery electric railway has
been built since 1890, and In the same
period electric power and lighting plants
have been equipped by the thousands.
The steam railroad mileage has nearly
doubled, the production OF coal has

rupied, and the volume Ot copper for
commercial uses must he multiplied by
six.

Synopsis of A Good Little psv,s.


 Charles MacLance, "a good little devil,' and a little friend of all the world, upon his mothers death is sent to his uncle. Lord Colinton, to be rear ed as will befit his future rank. Lord Colinton has recently lost his only son and with his memories and his broken heart, unable to bear the sight of chil- dren, places Charles in the distant and heartleSs aunt, Mrs. Mac Niche. Charles loves the fairies with all the ardOr of his poetic soul, and in spite of his rags and misery the etheral creatures bring him solace; while Mrs. MacMiche, with her sordid soul and iron heart, to whom the fairies are fiends, lives in pathetic terror Of their power. Charles meets and loves Juliet, into whose eyes God forget to put the light, and the fairies, who on1y come when the heart is so full that 1t cdn- not speak, manifest themselves to the happy young lovers in a myriad ways, Upon the death of Lord C91inton, Charles becomes heir to lis title and fortune and takes a pltifui and tender farewell of Juliet, promising te return when he is old enough to make her his Lady Colinton
 With the lapse of years and the pos- session of power, Charles forgets the fairies, and Juist and becomes-a snobl Juliet's heart calls to lsifa through the distance and the darkness. but her prayer is in vain. Meantime, love and sympathy have entered the heart of Mrs. MacMiche. and in Charles absence she realizes that she loves him. Faith conqUers fear, and her hate of the fairies is dispelIed Through her longing for Charles, she becomes seriously ill, and despatChes a servant to ask him to come to her. Lord Colnton spurns the plea, and later becomes engaged to the famous Lady Rosalind-''a very distinguished natchI" Ills conscience, symboItzed in the form of the little Charles of long ago, accuses Lord CoIinton of his per hdy, and in contempt leaves his body, Mrs MacM1che's illness becomes az gravated, and the doctor informs Lord Cofinton that unless she sees him she will die of a broken heart; and this time he deigns to visit her. h1s old aunt and Juliet are staggered by the sad transformation in him. As he is about to leave the house his conscience confronts him and battles with his worse self for supremacy. His soul triun1pEs, and the spirit of the old Charles retIrns. He denounces and Tenounces the snobs who accompanied him on his visit, and tells them with dramatic simplicity that he has seen the light and has learned wisdom.
 There is a tender reunion between himself and Juliet-and they live hap py for ever and ever!

AT THE DAVIS.
Smashing the Vice Trust.


 The first view of the actual work tngs Of the huge syndicate of vice known as the vice trust, which was successfully broken up in New York city by District Attorney Whitman, will be shown in Smashing the NIce Trust, a spectacular feature moving picture in six parts and seven hundred scenes. This picture is the attraction at the Davis theatre the last half of this week.
 It was discovered by the district at torney's investigators that the net profit of one of the inner rings of this syndicate, known as the big five. was over s1,50O,000. They collected tribute from over 50 different places which they controlled. They boasted the ownership of over 2,000 white slaves, and from their earnings deducted 50 per cent. for themselves. This tribute, the district attorneys office found was paid every morning between the hours of 4 and 5. at the trust headquarters, in the upper floor of 8 Raines law fo- tel on Sixth avenue, between 2Tth and 18th streets. This office is reproduced in the picture, and the method of mak- ing payments is portrayed accurately for the first time.
 Social workers in New York have particularly endorsed this feature of the moving picture because it robs the vice situation in large cities entirely Of any attractive qualities and places 1t, as it actually is, upon a sordidIy commercial basis.
