THE WRECK Is
POPULAR Film
At YE LIBERTY

Though only a three-reel film, The
WrecKT featuring all the well-known
stars sof the Wtagraph company, is
proving as popular at Ys Liberty the
alter as some OF the big six-reel pic
lures which have been shown. This
is due ito the superior quality of the
production, being one of the most
spectacular and costly which has ever
been thrown on the screen.
Not ten persons in c million have
ever stood beside a railroad track and
watched in plain view over stretch
Of several miles q passenger train and
a wild" engine racing toward each
other into unavoidable collision.
No more spectacular scene can be
imagined than when the two locomo-
tives come together in terrific impact,
rear high into the air and then settle
into great mass Of twisted iron and
steel and splintered woodwork.
The wreckage takes fire and there
follows the scenes which many per-
sons have viewed following a train
crash. However, the imagination can
not coniure up the thrill which Is
caused by the two engines racing to-
ward each other to inevitable disaster.
While the picture reaches its eli
max with the wreck, the approach Is
made through powerful story of rail-
road life, Of loves and hates There
are half a dozen powerful situations
exceeded only slightly by the wreck.
In addition to the big feature three
other reels are shown Broncho Bill

Organization of Forces Results
in Record Handling of
Primary NeI S

Again making good its motto of
"AlI the News aad the News First, "
the ar-Bulletin on Saturday night
gave the election returns to large
crowd downtown and to many out-of-
town patrons in an effective manner.
On big illuminated screen IN front
of Dimond & Company,s store the
election figures were flashed continu-
ously from to 1880 O'Clock and from
1l:20 TO 1910. IL
A big news-gathering organization
and small but compact organization
for handling the returns at the Star
Bulletins special headquarters en-
abled this paper to give the news to
the crowds with record.making rapid
ity. In many cases the crowd on the
street was given the returns from pre-
cincts within a minute after the count
up to that time was made in the pre-
cinct booth. The Star-Bulletin's news
gatherers took the precinct count as
it was made, telephoned direct to the
Star Bulletins headquarters and with
in 20 seconds after the count reach
ed headquarters it was displayed on
the screen.
Aside from the mep who gathered
the news at the precinct booths, the
Star-Bulletin had men at each of the
hcadquarters-at the Rice headquar-
tiers in the Young Hotel building, at
the Kuhio headquarters in the Kapio-
lani building. at the Democratic head
quarters in the mayors office, city
hall, and at Republican headquarters
In the office of L. Andrews, chairman
Of the Republican territorial central
committee. As fast as the figures ar.
rived here from the precincts, they
were telephoned directly to the Star
Bulletins special room in the Waity
building and put in big. easily-read.
able letters on the white screen.
Except for an accident to the lens
of the lantern flashing the returns, the
figures were kept going without a
stop all evening and until long after
midnight. This accident held up the
returns a half-hour, but the general
results were already pretty well
known, 1t had already been announc-
ed that Kuhio was SO far in the lead
that there was little chance Of Rice
victory.

This interlocking director" he
said, declares that if we curb his ac.
tivities the poor will suffer terribly
l ask myself, though. is he really
speaking on behalf of the poor or on
his own behalf.
He reminds me of man who
stopped in terrific indignation at sight
of group of boys stoning bird that
was tied to a tree by the leg.
"'You scoundrels! You pitiless
scoundrels!' cried the man.
And he took the bird up in his
hand and placed it IN his bosom ten
derly.
The next day at the office he was
heard to remark with chuckle:
BY gosh, you know. broiled robin
on toast isn't half bad!'"
