a Paradox Of Warfare.

1t Is not impossible that Joffre NAV
die without having ever been really in
action; and this is not the least curious
paradox OF modern warfare. On both
sides. but especially on tho German
side-which has had no experience Of
anything like tho Tonquin. Tunis and
Moroccan expeditions-most Of thu
generals had never heard cannon fired
in earnest until last August; and al
they are brave enough not to think Of
exposing themselves to danger merely
to show their bravery, many will never
know the whiz of the bullet.

OPERATIC ANNALS IN
FARRAR'S NEW FILM
New York Opera House Fur
nishes Locale for Story of
a Singers Temptation

THE TEMPTATION. -, Photoplay n six parts
by Hector Turnbull Produced .SeclI de
mount mount p Prospan sp les Released Monday Seen at
a private screening.
For her second film appearance Ger
aldIne Farrar still cIngs to the operate,
but instead of showing on the screen the
adventures of a composers heroine she
presents the trials and tribulatons OF n
singer in her pursuit of fame. he photo
play, which is called The Temptation,
is by Hector Turnbull, who wrote the
scenario of "The Cheat" 1t follows
somewhat the same scheme of develop
ment, rising from quiet and gradual
beginning to a close Of real dramatic
force.
Frankly, "The Temptation" is more
than theatrical. IL is operate. II dis
closes with a readiness which life denies
the inmost emotions and deepest desires
of an opera impresario of the first mag
nitude. We watch his discovery of a new
voice and a new personality In cabaret
singer, his trial of her abilities, his at
tempt to force her favor and then his
announcement to the reporters on the
day when the reviewers have presumably
announced her triumph, that she Is a
failure. Then comes the disheartening
attempts of the girl to get work, which
one might have imagined less difficult
after triumph In Butterfly
But such is the way of operate tales
They compensate by enthralling with
their emotion. "The Temptation Is no
exception The film story of the girls
struggles, of her life with the young vio-
llnist and composer, who finds the doors
of the opera house closed to his new
opera; of the mans brain fever; OF the
girls determination to buy" a produc-
tion of the masterpiece with the only
coin at her command; the opera 5
triumph: the girls arrival at the impre-
sarios rooms. ready to pay the debt and
then the murder of the man by his jealous
mistress. makes story on the tried mod
els OF "Panthea" and many another play.
But the narrative holds the interest
steadily and increases in power to the
moment when the final touch of novelty
| arrives and the mistress, in place of the
wronged heroine, "toscas' the villain.
"The Temptation" is another artistic
| feather In the cap Of the Lasky forces.
| Its photography has always that rich
| quality of concentrated, shadow bearing
| light which was SO marked In THE
| Cheat and Carmen" As for the acting,
| three people stand out of an admirable
| ensemble: Theodore Roberts, a pungent
| figure as the impresarlo; Pedro de Cor
| doba, an exceptionally effective young
| artist, who Is particularly good in the
| fever scenes. and Miss Farrar herself
! The latter adds to her excellent impress
| sion In her first photoplay venture. The
| eyes, the smile, the carriage of the body
| all play their part. In the final scenes
| she depicts passionate terror admirably
"The Temptation will be shown at the
! Stanley all next week.

STUDENTS WILL
PRESENT OPERA
CLOSING SCHOOL
FINE PRODUCTION OF I'll TROVA.
TORE" is ASSURED.

Perhaps no other school of its kind
in the state has greater histronic tai
ent been developed among the student
body than at the Third District A. and
NJ. College here in Americus. Many
very meritorious plays have been pre-
sented there in recent years at the
closing of the May session, and to very
appreciative audiences who were un-
stinted in the praise accorded the
school talent.
At the close of the session last MAJ
selected number of students present
ed Gounod's Faust" very creditably:
in fact, quite as well as the average
company Of professionals playing the
larger cities could have presented this
very popular masterpiece.
This season the stundents will strive
to even greater attainment, and are
preparing a production of Verdi's I'll
Trovatore" which, with all the neceB-
sary accessories and scenic effects, will
be presented by the best talent in the
school three weeks hence For weeks
the piece has been rehearsed thorough
ly, and every participant in the caste
has mastered well his or her part.
The opera will be presented al fres-
co upon an improyised stage built upon
the front of the boys dormitory. All
of the scenery has been painted by the
students, and the conception of III
Trovatore" will be complete in every
detail.
The closing of the college session in
May will mark the beginning of work
upon the proposed new building, which
will take the place of the large admin
istration building and auditorium
which was destroyed by fire a short
time since Already the debris is being
cleared away and soon, it is hoped, two
handsome buildings will rise upon the
site of the one-destroyed quite re
Gently.
The session now drawing to a close
has been very successful one, with
more than one hundred boarding pu-
pills enrolled, and with fine progress
attained in every department of this
splendid institution.

JAPANESE WARSHIPS
SIGHTED OFF COAST

PEKIN, May 5.-A Japanese cruiser
and four torpedo boat destroyers have
arrived off Chin Wang Tao on the Gulf
of Liao about one hundred and fifty
miles east of Pekin. The warships an
chored at the mouth of the harbor. II
is thought that ne ships are there
ready to take Japanese consuls away
in case of declaration of war.
The opinion prevails here among
government officials that Japan is pre-
pairing to declare war on China with
out issuing an ultimatum and that
japanese troops have already been mo-
bilized, ready for service.

PEKIN DISTURBED OVER
LOWERING WAR CLOUDS

PEKIN, May 5.-Despite the efforts
of the Chinese government to silence
all war talk, the capital is greatly dis
turbed today. The government has
given orders that under no considera-
ton must anti-Japanese demonstra-
tiOns be made.
The educated class of Pekin is
greatly agitated over the situation and
demand that China take firm stand
and demonstrate to their neighbor that
China is no longer an ancient nation.
Those in touch with the government
and who know how negotiations have
progressed are worried over the situa-
ton. War seems inevitable between
the two nations.
The Chinese cabinet is divided and
final action will depend on the decision
of President Yuan Shang Kai.
