LIVELY POLICE COURT
SESSION YESTERDAY

A great deal of excitement was
created in police court yesterday, as
an aftermath of the mass meeting
held at the High school auditorium
Sunday afternoon, in which Rev. Up
church and his assistant, A. S. London
made some statements which reflect
ed upon the city officials.
Sunday night the chief of police
insisted that these two gentlemen fur
nish him with ocular proof that so
many lewd women were soliciting on
the streets of the city, and deputed
a man to accompany him. All that
was rounded up were a couple of
negro characters, who reside over on
the east side, and in police court
yesterday they were given a hearing.
From the testimony introduced by
London it seems that he was looking
for this class of women and succeed
ed in locating a few.
During his Testimony he referred to
a couple of drivers who have a stand
in front of the Wilmington hotel, and
after the morning session, one of
them proceeded to ''clean-up' on him,
when an officer standing by inter-
fered, little damage resulting. In
the afternoon the other one took up
the affair and a general survival of
the fittest was started, in which sew
eral blows were struck.
After the melee was ended Lon
don departed for his home in Lone
Grove. Upchurch left early yester-
day morning for st. Louis, but it is
again take up the work.

IN MIzZOURA
Theatorium, Friday, April 9.

The latest of Broadway's great the
atrical successes to be staged before
the motion picture camera, and one
which carries new style story for
motion pictures is Augustus Thomas
exceptionally thrilling story OF south
ern life, "In Mizzoura,' which as a
stage production enjoyed many sea
sons of phenomenal success.
"In Mizzoura" has been in prepa-
ration for the past seven weeks, and
has but recently been completed by
the All Star Feature Corporation, the
makers of Arizona" Checkers
Soldiers of Fortune" and Paid In
Full" in moving pictures. The criti-
cisms which have been written of the
production, tell in glowing terms Of
the excellence of this picture and pro
nounce for it a tremendous success.
There is a variety of attraction in
the five reels of unusual merit. For
those who love the scenically beauti-
full, there is an abundance of pictur-
esque locations shown; for those who
crave the exciting there is the ex-
press car robbery, the dash for liber-
ty through the drug store window; the
southern posse after their man, and
the sheriff holding them all at bay.
A romantic story of love runs through
the entire five parts and with its hap
py ending pleases greatly.
Burr Mcintosh the world wide
known war correspondent during the
Spanish-American war, actor, author
lecturer and formerly photographer
to the government, after an absence
from the stage for several years, has
been persuaded to again enact the
role for the motion picture camera
which he formerly played in the
stage production and which he origi
mated, that of the big-hearted black
smith, 10 Vernon.
In support of Mr.. Mcintosh the All
Star corporation has engaged an ex-
ceptional cast. Francesca Rotoli ap-
pears as Kate Vernon; Gwendolyn
Piers as 'Lizbeth Vernon; Charlotte
Lambert as Ma" Vernon. II. ID.
Blakemore as Col Bollinger; Ray

sheriff, and others.
The picture was produced at Guy

as reported in a London paper, of a
worthy vicar in a rural parish who
had waxed eloquent in the interest
of foreign missions one Sunday, and
was surprised on entering the village
shop during the week to be greeted
with marked coldness by the old
dame who kept it.
On asking the cause. the good
woman produced a half crown from

THE METAL
MARKET

The outlook for the metal market, in
Tho west. is most encouraging, and
marked advances have been recorded,
during the past two weeks, in nearly
every staple commodity in the metal
line, which means a greater degree OF
activity in the mining camps in order
to supply the demand created by the
steadily increasing prices for the
metals.
Of all the commodities copper has
made the most marked advances. In
the local market, W. weeks ago, cop
per cathode was quoted at $l5.4712.
Today it is being bought at $l6.2O n
up. while in New York electrolytic is
quoted at SIS, and casting at $17.75,
and, while it is hoped that these prices
will be maintained, the general i'm
preston prevails among both produc-
ers and ultimate users that any further
advances in copper might prove to be
a menace to the industry instead of a
blessing, as the memory of the disaster
that followed in the wake of 25-cent
copper seven years ago still leaves a
bad taste in the mouth of mining oper-
ators throughout the west and also in
eastern financial circles.
Lead is strong and is gradually max
ing gains, going from $4.17h two
weeks ago to 1920 and above at the
present time, and it is believed that
this metal will gain further strength
as time advances, and especially so
if the war in Europe is terminated
within a reasonable time, when a wave
of reconstruction will sweep over that
country.
Silver has made only fractional
gains of late, being steady at 5015
cents or thereabouts. If advances
should be made to IS a great stimulus
would be given to the silver mining
industry of this country. That silver
should advance is the opinion held by
the leading fnanciers of the country.
Spelter is still bringing a good price
and this will probobaly be maintained
for a long time to come.-Mining Re
view.

SHOULD MAKE
OUR OWN DYES

This country should make itself in
dependent in this matter, and not be
subject to the uncertainties which a
wa in which we have no part imposes
on us. All the necessary dyes could
be made in this country, as Thomas
A. Edison and other experts have more
than once pointed out, and would have
been made here a long time ago if the
capital necessary to create plants for
their production could have any assur-
ance Of Protection.
But American chemical manufactur-
ers have had an experience that cause IS
them to hesitate. Money has been ex-
pended in establishing plants only to
find their investment practically profit
less through the fact that German
manufacturers have dumped their
goods on this market at prices below
the cost of their own production. and
when American manufactures have
put out of business by such competi-
ton German goods have had the con-
troll of the market at their W prices.
1t is now less a question of price
than of getting the necessary products
at any cost. We are not prepared to
make the needed dyes for the reason
stated. While the war continues there
will be Protection enough, but the war
may end before adequate plants could
be established in this country, and
then there would be no protection at
all. Repetition of the experience Of the
past could be expected. Such an uncer-
tainty does not encourage the invest
ment of capital in costly chemical
plants which may thus be put out of
business.
is it not time that our government
adopted a policy that would perma-
nently protect our manufacturers
against unfair competitions 1t is pre-
vented in Canada by an anti-dumping
provision in it's Tariff law. Mr.. Edison
believes that such a provision in our
Tariff law would save us. 1t is time
the question was seriously considered
and effective action taken-Philadel
