to-day and also gives the following
ministerial declaration which was COM

For Greece, after her victorious wars
long period of peace was an imperative
necessity to enable her to work for the
prose Gritty OF the country. The or
ganiZauon of her public services and
land and sea forces and the development
and wealth of the country would have
guaranteed her against any attack on

such great sacrifices, and would also
have enabled her to carry out a pro-
gram of serving the interests of the

In these circumstances the observance
Of neutrality as was imperative for her

ropean crisis

an ally and to seek satisfaction for her
interests. without however compromising

pie Will ensure the entire security OF

Hohler, charge d'afaires OF Ine British
legation in Mexico City, declaring that
the American note, "a copy of which had
been presented to Obregon simultaneously
with its delivery to Carranza, had pro-
duced Il good effect on the situation. The
charge pointed out. however. the neces-
sity at all times of keeping a line of rail
way and telegraphic communication open
between Mexico City and Vera Cruz.
The text of his telegram was made pub
lie by the state department as follows:
In my opinion the effect OF the Amer
ican note to Carranza and Obregon has
been extremely good. 1t Is. however, abb
solutely necessary that immediate steps
be taken for sending supplies Of food and
forage to the capital
Whatever party is in power in Mexico
City and Vera Cruz II Is now plain that
the best means to prevent the recurrence
Of such a situation now exists would
be to insist absolutely on the local troops
maintaining inviolate the railroad COM

For a quarter of a century Cottolene has been growing steadily in favor. It is not offered as a substitute or as being just as good as other shortening and frying fats. It is an original product and better than anything else that you can use for shortening or frying. Insist on getting real Cottolene.
 Cottolene is ready for use as you take it from the pail. It creams up beautifully and blends readily with the flour.

HIGH GLASS BILL
 AT THE PRINCESS
SPLENDID MUSIC AND DANCING, SENSATIONAL ACROBATrCS
 AND NOVELTY.

No classier bill ever played the Princess tleater than the one for the
 last three days of the week The bill
 is replete with magnificent music,
 both vocal and instrumental, a grace
 iui dancing act, the most sensational contortiOn act ever seen here, and the classiest club sTingers and juggIer of
 the American stage today
 The Five Mowatts, staging the last
 word in club swinging and juggling
 are fully up to their booking and be-
 youd il. These five clever young men
 show the greatest club swinging and
 juggling act ever seen here or any
 where else. That they are the last word nobody who saw them on the
 first day can dispute. They work rapidly, so rapidly that the eye can not follow them, and they offer some stunts with the clubs never before heard of or seen here.
 Kalmar and Brown in a clever sing ing and dancing act, have an artistic offering entirely free from ragtime music or movements, and they areI showing one of the most graceful dancing acts of the season. Both are good singers and they make good use of their voices to carry their act butt their dancing is the real sensation of 1 the bill.
 Goldsmith and Pinard, in The New Salesman have an instrumental | musical sketch of real worth The l name of the ekit only suggests the manner in which they stage their act | Both are meritorious performers on a | large variety of instruments, and the | Jewish character of the team gives a | great imitation of the celebrated | Sousa There is a splen- did line Of comedy running all the way through and the act is one that will call for more than it's share of local applause; in fact the musicians are always called upon for an encore.
 Brown and Taylor man and woman. in a good character and vocal sketch, were another big hit. Appearing first as Italian immigrants they render several classic selections in comi- cal manner, and later change to eyen- ing attire in which they render more good selections Theirs is an act of harmony and merit
 The Pantzer Ono, the most graceful act on the stage easily car ried off the acrobatic honors. The man and woman of this team are real. ly graceful contortioniets. As a rule these acts are ridiculous from a cer- tain standpoint but not so with this one. While they perform some of the greatest feats ever seen here. they dol it with grace and ease and beauty that makes it good.
 The Keystone comedy is another of those clever joy films from this fa- nous company and is a corldng good laugh.
 Tonight is amateur night a bia double show for one price The list of amateurs who will appear will be found in another column, and Man. ager owens promises it will be a greater show than last Fridays, which is saying a good deal
