one OF the real novelties OF the sea-
son will he "Pollyanna." the glad play
which klaw & Erlanrcr and George
Tyler bring to the Academy of Music
on Thursday. Friday and Saturday y,
with Saturday matinee.
The most depressed moods cannot
withstand the genial glow and sunny
influence Of "Pollyanna" The glad
girl moves by merriment and appeals
to the tender emotions. She is aglow
with youth, vitality, charm and the
JOY of living, and she sends everybody
out of the theater with new and i'm
proved viewpoint of life. and a realiZa =
ton that it is not mere dull drahness,
but full OF sunshn and very much
worth the living. There is no uucs-
tioning the wide and universal appeal

VILLA GETS AWAY AGAIN
BY MEANS OF AUTOMOBILE
is Shelled by Long Range Guns But
Escapes - Bandits Driven From
Stronghold in Church.-No Figures
on Recent Casualties.

Chihuahua City, Mexico via Maria,
TeXas.-A small band of Villa bandits
took a foot hold in the church OF San
Ia dio de Guadalupe. They were driven
out by gunfire from their stronghold
and cavalry dispersed them.
The night was spent in expectation
OF a desperate attack which did not
materialiZe. In the morning small
groups of enemy cavalry were shelled
by the artillery OF Santa Rosa hill
Villa drove up in an automobile to
within about thre miles of the city
from the northwest. The automobile
was shelled by long range guns but
escaped. The column of General May
cote, who has already left Santa Rosa
with $500 cavalry, is expected to reach
here Sunday and drive off the remain
ing bandits. No figures showing the
casualties on either side during the
three days lighting is yet available
Villa is expected to withdraw soon
to the hills as his forces have been
scattered by the shell and rifle fire
of the de facto forces and his efforts
to capture the city are growing less
and less forceful.
