Hammond leaves until the closing
scenes. for the action, in major part,
transpires when the two armies are
both holding ground not far from the
Dabneys' plantation There are sew
eral battle pictures with scenes some
what unequal in merit, but with some
absolutely perfect glimpses, a charge,
a corner of battlefield, ETC. that are
truly alive and that stir one with
their tenseness and abandon. The
danger in picturing battles comes
when men are lying behind breast
works or are waiting.
The object of the picture is TO
give spectators a sense of the thrill
of life with its tears and laughter
Its author shows his good sense in
getting down to real business right
away. We are introduced to Colonel
Dabney Hal Reed, and his darkey
Servant. Dan Uew Dockstader);
then to Grace (Gail Kane). and Lila,
her blind sister, CLois Meredith,
who is, with the possible exception
of Hal Reeds Colonel Dabney, the
most effectively pictured character in
the whole cast Miss Meredith is es-
pecially fortunate in emotional mo-
ments and adds tremendously TO
many OF the pictures scenes. War is
already in the air and "Stonewall' "
Jackson calls on his neighbor Dab
ney, to talk it over. This is another
| excellent character and is played by
John II. Pratt Friends of the Dab
neys from the north, the Hammonds
| CBeatrice Clevenger as Elsie and w
ID. Fisher as john arrive. The
scenes of love making use up little
space and are made interesting by
| the humorous interest that Dan takes
in the general happiness. 1t is good
sincere work and does the great com
edian credit as picture player
Raoul Dabney is played by George
! Cowl with intelligence and ease.
This picture will be shown at the

INTERESTING MANEUVERS
IN PANAMA CANAL ZONE

Panama, March 20.-Two units of
the submarine fleet stationed in Pana-
ma Canal waters in conjunction with
the coast artillery corps, have Just
completed a series of war maneuvres
al the Pacific entrance to the canal
with the view of testing the efficien-
CIV of the shore batteries on the forti-
fled islands. The two submarines and
the mine layer, Gen. j. Nj. Schofield
which towed a number of barges, were.
supposed to represent a hostile fleet
in an attempt to run past the shore
batteries and to evade the mine Deld
that had been planted as an addition
al safeguard,
The approach of the hostile fleet
was observed from the land forts by
means of the huge search lights which
have already been placed in position.
The submarines, however, managed
to reach the vicinity of the forts un-
observed and technically are supposed
to have made it rather uncomfortable
for the batteries. Part of the hostile
fleet was destroyed by the mines
over which il passed, the mines being
| discharged from the batteries when
the ships were directly over them.
| Immediately after the arrival here
of Brigadier-General Clarence r. Ed
wards. L. S. A., who commanded the
Panama Canal troops, much activity
began to be displayed in military
matters. A number of practice hikes
into the interior have been made
and others are contemplated for the
| purpose of familiarizing the infantry
regiments with the surrounding coun
try. 1t is now planned to send com
plete regiment with full equipmen
through the jungle on a long hike int
the Chiriqui country along the Pacific
coast.
The maneuvres undertaken recent
y by the coast artillery and the sub
marines, are for the purpose of de
monstrating the efficiency of the fort'
and to ascertain what additional for
tifications and armament will be need
ed so that proper recommendation
may be made to the fortificationi
board when it comes to the canal zon,
some time next month. 1t is said
that already a number of vital change!
will be recommended.
| II is anticipated that when Major
General Leonard Wood, U. S. A., com
mander of the department OF The
east, arrives in the canal zone, he vii
have placed before him several plans
for the housing of the large number o.
soldiers that will be stationed on tht
canal. The most important of these
will be the detailed plan for the per
manent military post where the three
infantry regiments will be stationed.

AT MAJESTIC THEATRE,
"THE FAIRY AND THE WAlF"

The story of this Gustave Frohman
production is sure to appeal to every
person in the audience. The prin-
cipal characters, Mary Miles Minter
Oknown the country over as "The
Little RebelO Percy Helton (the
boy of Peter Grimm fame), and
Will Archie Cwhom everyone knows)
will delight the children with their
pathos and humor while the grown
ups will be gripped by the splendid
acting and the interest of the plot,
based upon events brought about by
the sudden outbreak Of the present
European war, which in brief is as
follows.
Major Drayton, Of the British army
receives a cablegram which necessi-
tates his return to London. As he
will be gone but few weeks, his
lawyer suggests that he leave Viola
| in his care.
Viola is not happy in Lawyer Ne
Wilson'S household and is therefore
dismayed when at the outbreak OF
the war abroad, her father writes
! that he has been ordered to the
front The news of Major Drayton's
death causes the Neyinson's attitude
to change A sum OF money entrust-
ed to Nevnson for Niola's care has
been lost by him in speculation, and
Viola is looked upon as a burden and
treated harshly, becoming the house

Goaded beyond endurance, she
turns away, drifts into a theatre and
becomes fairy in a Christmas pro-
duction. At the dress rehearsals she
falls from cloud which was bearing
her skyward She is not injured
but is so berated by the stage man
ager that she rushes out into the
night in her fairy costume, and dis
appears. This is how it comes to
pass that The Waif," a wretched
little urchin, whose only shelter is an
old barrel in a lonely alley, is sure
that the Christmas Angel has come
down to him when he is aroused from
| his Christmas Eve sleep by Viola
dashing headlong into his barrel
seeking to hide from pursuing dog
Despite the gathering clouds, the
threads of the story are woven to-
gether into a happy ending.

wife's devotion to her husband, who
after attaining success, ceases to love
