UNUSUAL ANIMAL PICTURES AT
THE COLONIAL

For the last time tonight, sports
men and lovers of the great out of
doors will find entertainment of un-
usual quality at the Colonial where
Salisbury's pictures Of wild Life in
America" are being shown. In many
ways they are as thrilling and inter-
esting as the Rainey African Jungle
Pictures, these have the added value
of ar quainting Americans with birds
and animals of this country in their
native haunts. Many of the pictures
were taken within a few feet of the
unconscious bird or animal, the men
or the expedition waiting for days in
the blinds erected for hiding the cam
era until the opportunity for making
the picture desired presented itself.
The work of the well-trained pointer
dogs aheld over the game birds is a
most beautiful picture to watch mas
much as the dog pointing" has long
been a favorite subject of the most
noted artists both of this country and
others. One reel shows the hunter
firing at Flushing pheasant, the dogs
in working attitude and the game
dropping when struck by the shot.
This picture has been reproduced in
All the leading sporting magazines in
the country.
In the words of Rex Beach, the
noted author, they are "Unquestion-
ably the greatest hunting, fishing and
outdoor pictures ever produced"
Thursday, Friday and Saturday
there will be an entire change of pro-
gram both in vaudeville and pictures.
We have been very successful in OBJ
tanning for these three days a group of
western scenes, that are void of a
story or narrative, but scenes as they
actually occur in our western fields

German Newspaper Says
America Is Trying to
Assist Great Britain

Berlin, via London, June 30.-A
Reuter- dispatch contains a summary
OF the United States note asking Ger
many to reconsider her refusal to
settle by direct negotiations the claim
arising from the sinking of the Ameri-
can ship William P. Frye, printed
without comment by the Berlin news
papers, with the exception of the
Rundschau. This paper introduces its
article by saying:
Along with the Lusitania incident,
which, it is true, is settled so far as we
arc concerned, but is to be looked over
again for Americas sake, comes an
exchange of opinions concerning the
sinking of the ship Frye"
The Runschau asks what more
America wants than an offer to pay
damages. The paper answer its own
question by saying: 1T wants here to
influence the German method of ma
rine warfare in favor of England and
absolutely nothing else can be said"
