said this cannot be done until the city
takes advantage OF its right to create sal
Don districts for police control.

ing Thursday. Whether the ordinance viii

ORPHEO THEATRE.

Two Vitagraph players of promi- hence were injured recently in an au-- tomobile accident which was staged especially for scene in that com pany's new multiple reel feature,, ''For Woman's Fair Name," appear ing at the Orpheo theatre today. Harry Horey and Eulalie Jensen re- ceived bruises about the head and shoulders which, although which, al though not serious, were quite pain ful.
 The scene is one in which Mercy, driving an automobile with Miss Jen- sen in the tonnau, swerves suddenly, upsetting the car. The camera showed the car skidding in cloud of dust and then cut to scene where the machine is on it's side with Mercy and Miss Jensen plunging out on the road. Director Davenport had his players clinging to the side of the overturned car when the camera started and then told them to leap head-first to the ground. Both players did it realistically but landed heavily nthe hard, rough road, and had no difficulty in portraying the fact that they were shaken up considerably

MORE CONSTRUCTIVE
 LEGISLATION PLANNED
NOn.Partisan Tariff Body, Protection Against Unfair Competition and Encouragement Dyestuff h.
 duStry Assured.

Washington, May 29.-The admin istration measures for tariff com mission, protection against unfair competition after the European war ends, and encouragement for the American dyestuff industry will be incorporated in the general revenue bill. This was made known in a. statement issued tonight by Majority Leader Kitchin, chairman of the house ways and means committee.
 Majority members have finally de- cided to report favorably the admin istration tariff commission measure, known as the Rainey bill, which will be part of the general revenue bill for this session." he said. "Thete will be incorporated in the revenue bill ample provision for the encourage ment of the dyestuff industry, the committee believing that the dye pro- duction stands alone in it's relation to the tariff. Before tn. war, Ger many controlled the whole industry. We produced less than 20 per cent. The action of the committee will make it possible that within the next five years American dyestuff manu- facurers will produce at least 65 per cent of the domestic consumption, and this will make not only the dystuffs but other manufacturers in- dependent of the German monopoly J
 MT. Kitchin said the bill as finally presented will be so non-partisan that a large number of Republicans. If not a majority, will be able to support it.

LABOR TROUBLES
 FREQUENT IN U. $

: Washington, May 3o.-Strikes and lockouts throughout the United States recently have been unusually numer- ous, according to statement today by the department of labor. The last six months produced 1,069, and in April alone there were 26S.
 Most of the April strikes, says the statement, were due to the demand for labor to fill war orders. De- creases in immigration have brought about a labor shortage. This demand for labor, it adds, has been accom- panied by demands of working peo- pie for increase in wages, the rapid and increased granting of which the last six months has resulted in de- mands of laboring men that many em- ployers refuse to grant.
 April strikes. according to the statement, affected 30C,U00 workers

DUE
 TO A BAD DIET
Eminent Investigators Say Food Is
 Cause of Dreaded Malady.


 Cause of Dreaded Malady.
 In cases of pellagra eat plenty of food, such as milk and eggs, and ac- cording to Dr. Henderson, pellagra specialist, such nourishing food will help the patient gain strength, while Baughn's Pellagra treatment will really effect the cure by removing the cause. In fact, this Baughns Treat ment has been so successful it has been given to the world with a guar antee to refund the money in case it fails to cure. There is no need to suffer when nourishing diet and this treatment will cure pellagra. The best way to find out all about pei lagra and it's cure is to write to the American Compromising Company, Box 2O25.
