Martin Will File Fifty-Page Type written Document With Clerk of
 the Supreme Court

Montgomery, December 3-(speciaD Attorney General William L. Martin to- morrow will file with the clerk of the supreme court a 50-page typewriter brief upholding the constitutionality of the consolidated court bill, passed at the recent session of the legislature.
 There are three cases before the court testing the constitutionality of the con- soidated court bill, two of which were submitted on argument and one on briefs. The question involved is practically the same in all three cases.
 The Marengo case was filed as the re- suit of the refusal of the judge of pro- hate of that county to issue certificate of candidacy to attorney wishing to run for the office of judge of the law and equity court.

MEANS B|G SAVING.
 FOR CONSUMER HERE.
Chancellor Whiteside's Re- instatement of Rate In-
 junction to Save$150,000

Montgomery, December 3.--(Special.) As result of Chancellor W. w. White sides decision reinstating the injunction against the Louisville and Nashville, the Alabama Great Southern, and Southern railroads in the preferential rate cases, consumers of raw furnace material in the Birmingham district will be saved between S150,0Oo and $25O0O0, according to an esti- mate made by Atticus Mulin, secretary to the public service commission.
 The reinstatement of the injunction pre- vented the railroads from discontinuing the preferential rates. By the terms of Chancellor Whteside's original decree, the carriers were given authority to ad- vance rates on raw material after the public service commission had been given 10 days notice
 The supreme court may not be able to decide the case in less than three months In this event, 1t is estimated that the con- sumers will be saved s150,000 Should five months pass before the court renders it's decision, the saving will amount to some thing like $25O GOO.

By RICHARD IT. LUSSIER

n ALIAS pictures made an suspicious debut at the \ Strand yesterday when Dus- tin Farnum appeared in ''The Gen tleman from Indiana" from the fa- nous novel of Booth Harrington. This feature is released on the Paramount programme and will re- main over at the Strand for to- day.
 "The Gentleman from Indiana" as seen on the screen is an admirably balanced production, logical in it's plot development, true in charac- terization, dramatic when the big moments of the story are reached and spectacular in the presentation of scenes requiring a large com pany of supers. And best of all the picture in it's entirety is faithful to the phase of American life with which Booth Tarkington dealt.
 Three parts of the picture de- serves especial mention-the elab- crate depletion of the country cir GUS, the storm introducing a num- Der of realistic lightning effects, and the uprising of the people of Plattville when they believe that the whitecaps have murdered Harkless (Dustin Farnum).
 As for Dustin Farnum, he was at his best. Miss Winifred Kingston was pretty and very charming as Helen Sherwood" All in all, it must be stated that "The Gentle- man from Indiana" is the best thing on the Paramount pro- gramme since Farrar's Carmen"
 
 'The Garden of Allah will be the attraction at the Jefferson the lat ter part of next week.
 Once more we have the story of the extravagant wife who puts friend husband on the rollers In The Woman Pays" with the noted English comic opera beauty, Valli Valli, which was shown yesterday at the Trianon and which will again appear today at the same theatre. This feature is released on the Metro programme.
 However, "The Woman Pays" is enough unlike other plays based on the same theme to escape being a mere repetition of something that has been done in the past. There are many effective scenes and Miss Valli Valli shows herself to be an accomplished photo actress. She has excellent support from Edward Brennan and Marie Empress.
 My Hero,' a Biograph reissue, will head the bill at the Odeon Two for today. It is a Griffith di- rected picture and in the cast are included Henry B. Walthall, Lio- mel Barrymore, Harry Carey, Dor othy Gish, Charles H. Mailes, Rob- ert Harron and Kate Bruce. Oth- CT pictures on the Odeon Two pro- gramme for today are "The Bur glars Godfather" an Essanay drama "The Key to a Fortune" a Kalem; and The Home Cure" a Vitagraph comedy.
 Miriam Nesbitt, the noted Edi- son actress who has been away from the screen for several months. will appear today at the Princess theatre in "Life's Pitfalls an Ed ison drama. "A Scandal in Snake

vile" is also on the same pro- gramme. Miss Miriam Nesbitt was for several years the leading lady of Marc MacDermott, the fa- nous Edison star.
 As "The Birth of a Nation" is coming to the Jefferson the week of December 27. it might be we'll to familiarize the movie patrons of Birmingham with Griffith, the creator of "The Birth of a Ma tion."
 David Wark Griffith striking ly illustrates the saying that Be hind every great work stands 8 great man. There is something compelling, sweeping, irresistible about the pictures that come from the Griffith hand of command and the Griffith master brain. Griffith is many sided character, as might be inferred by the presenta- tions of the Fne Arts film studio Take a slant at his career and much light is thrown upon the why and wherefore of his achieve ments. He made his entrance upon the world 35 years ago, choosing Louisville, Ky, as his birthplace. His father was a brave soldier fighter of the civil war, Brig. Gen. Jacob Wark Griffith, c. S. A. Pos sessed of a fine singing voice, Griffith cultivated it to such a de- gree that he appeared on the oper- atic stage. After considerable ex- perience in this direction and on the dramatic stage, he devoted himself to playwrighting and play producing.
 The present great director first employed his talents, since so high 1y recognized and rewarded so richly with public favor, with the old Biograph studio in New York. He starred as an actor, but in q few months was directing his first picture. His original mind soon saw opportunities for improving the motion picture drama, then in it's infancy. He made possible the dramatic, artistic and spectacular productions of today by such in- .ventions as the closeup, flash back, the fade-out, and the para1- Tel action. His ability was soon recognized as director and play wright, resulting in his elevation to the head of the Biograph stu dio. During his five years there he made film versions of many of the greatest literary classics.
 Leaving the Biograph Griffith took charge as general manager of the Mutual and Reliance studios in Los Angeles. Last summer he transferred his labors and his enormous studio equipment to the Triangle. Some of his great sue cesses are: "The Birth of Ma tion," 'The Escape" Home, Sweet Home," and "The Averaging Con science" The great skill and ar tistic taste of Griffith are also seen in such recent productions supervised by him as "The Lamb" "The Martyrs of the Alamo Double Trouble" Jordan Is a Hard Road," and "The Penetentes."
 Another of the popular childrens matinees will be given today at the AlcaZar theatre. "The Lady of the Lake, and "Old Doc Yak" will be pictures for the little boys and girls of the city. Later in the day "Mortmain," a five part Vitagraph drama starring Robert Edeson. will be shown This is a picture for more mature minds.
 "Old Doc Yak" is movies based on the famous Age-Hera1d cartoon comedy.
