here to the Belasco Theater this week.
With all his enviable experience, Mr.
Fields has never before had n role that
so completely ran the gamut OF emo
tons as that in which he will be seen
here. 1t is said to be one continuous
laugh with moments when Ludwig's po-
sition is SO serious that the laugh Is
choked with sympathy for the remorse-
full king. though these serious moments
are quickly forgoteen in the rapid-fire
fun.

One Of the most striking feature
films ever placed upon the market will
be shown at the Columbia Theater this
week. This is "Hypocrites" written
and produced by Lois Weber (Mrs.
Smalley), and released by Bosworth.
A brief prologue shows Gabriel as an
ascetic monk of olden time. killed by
an outraged people to whom he has
dared present Truth, after consecratinG
himself with fasting and prayer. At
the opening of the play itself, Gabriel
is the minister of a modern church. de-
nouncing his congregation of SNUG
hypocrites, for their hypocrisy. Dis
couraged, he later sinks into a dream
and sees himself as the monk of old.

persons in the drama as they are re-

At the second day of the A. M. E.
district conference, Rev. J. A. Jones,
of Nashville, was recommended to the
national conference, which will meet
in Philadelphia, for election to the
place of bishop in the conference.
The day was opened at 7:30 with a
sermon by Rev. ]. p Sebastian on the
subject of Faith" The discourse
was a most forceful and eloquent one,
and profoundly impressed all his hear
ers
Following the sermon DIR. ]. A.
Jones, of Turner College, spoke of the
need of girls dormitory for that
school. He showed the absolute ne
cessity of such building. He urged
that members of the conference CO.
operate with him and do all in their
power for the erection of a suitable
structure. He showed that often self
sacrifice was one of the best ways of
improving ones character, and said
that there was no time in which self
sacrifice was so essential as the pres
ent.
The visiting preachers on hand
were: Revs. Y. T. Johnson, of South
Nashville; Noah w. Williams, pastor
of Shelbyville district.
The candidates for election as dele
gates to the national convention all
made speeches.
At the conclusion of these speeches
DR.. ]. A. Jones was nominated for

COUNTY LEVIES
STATE PRIVILEGE
SAME TAXES ENACTED BY REvE-
NUE. LAW ARE ADOPTED BY
THE COURT.

Without any division the county
court this morning levied the same
privilege taxes that are levied by the
state in the new revenue law approx.
ed May II, 1915. This act makes
many notable increases in the rates
now levied and the courts action
simply doubles the amount of the
state tax. This means that on new
privileges like toll gates, there will
be a substantial increase. The state
levies $40 per gate ard the county
rate will make the rate $50 per toll
gate. Moving picture shows and 9TH
er privileges hard hit will feel the
increase.

that there were thousands and thous-
ands of men out Of employment and
tl,at there were on an average of 49,
900 meal tickets given out daily in
the city of Vancouver by charitable
institutions.
Mr.. BlacI. talked quite Interestingly
about conditions in British Columbia
He said that out of thirty-hve big lum
her concerns in and in close proxinj-
ty to Vancouver, that there was only
one now in operation, and that quite
a number had failed absolutely and
that several had gone into the hands
of receivers. Mr.. Black said chat con-
ditions were absolutely attributable
to the great war now COINS ou II Eu'
rope and that until the great strug-
gle was over that conditions would
not Improve.
Millions of dollars of contracts, that
had been made before the var broke
out, stated Mr.. Black, were cancelled
and those that were not cancelled the
companies could not fill them owing
to the fact that they could not get
bottoms to ship on, as practically all
of the ships were taken over by the
French and English governments. Mr..
Black said that the Americans had
had better success han the English
and French, owing to the fact that
most of the American manufacturers
! owned their own boats, but that soon
the demand for the lumber ceased.
/ Mr.. Black in talking further Of the
war conditions in British Columbia,
said that the Canadians had not taken
the matter seriously, believing all the
time that the governor general would
handle matters so that commercial
conditions would not be affected, but
that they soon found out differently
Mr.. Black, in speaking of the volun-
teers said, that fully seventy-ive to
ninety per cent of those who had
gone to the front were either English
or French born, and that possibly half
of the remaining per cent we're Amer
lean born.
Mr. Black was personally acquaint-

ed with Frank Andrea, the Canadian
aviator who destroyed the German
submarine base on the coast of Bel
GUM at Bruges. Mr.. Black stated
that out of fifty volunteers that went
from Vancouver of his acquaintance
that there was only one left and that
was Mr.. Andrea and that he had had
a message from him since he went to
the front, telling him of the horrors
of the great struggle.
