EMPIRE

1 Dustin Farnum as Ben Blair, the strong-hearted plainsnan in the Pal las picture, t''Ben BIair,'' showing at . the Empire today, is given a role that wins the respect and sympathies of all those who enjoy a stirring Western story well told. In this production Dustin Farnum has an exec eptiona1ly suitable part to display his robust talents.
 The screen adaptation is from the well known book s'Ben Blair,'' writ ten by the late Will Li1libridge.
 Wfnnifred Kingston plays the prin- cfpa1 feminine role. The part of Flor ence Winthrop. who after 9 gir1hood in the West, deserts it for the gaieties ' of society in the East.
 The story is of his winning his boyhood sweetheart back to the glor- 1ous freedom of the cattle country. One of the chief features of this excel lent production is the strength of the supporting cast. The co-workers be- ing such we'll known players as Her bert, Standing, the London actor. who has been associated with the greatest players of the English stage. Lamar, Jof1nstone, Lydia Yeanans Titus, Page Peters, Virginia F'o1tz, F. A. Bonn, and others who were especially engaged because of appropriate ta1- ents make the support complete.
 The regular program shown at this theatre in conjunction with the fea- lures are changed daily.

The Grand Iefon-

The view of the Teton peaks from Ashton, Ida, is superb and doubtless has been the inducement for many a tourist and sportsman to leave the main line for the Teton range and the Jackson Hole country in pursuit of elk, sheep, trout and unsurpassed noun tain scenery. Owen Wister's Virgin ian' was glad to get out of these noun tains because, as he explained, they're most too big
 The average American, who has only a vague conception of the natural beau ties of the Rocky mountains and imag ines that real alpine forms are found only in Switzerland, must be surprised when he first sees the lofty peaks of the Tetons. Even a man who has climbed the Matterhorn would think twice before daring to try Grand Teton According to local report, this peak has been ascended only twice, in 1872 and 1894. AS the snowclad mountains along the Alaskan archipelago, rising to cloud reaching heights, stand with their feet bathed in the ocean, so from a viewpoint near Ashton the Tetons towering to the sky, rise from the bill lowy surface of a sea of golden grain Geological Survey Bulletin.

Howard and Prison Fever.

Typhus, which under the name of prison fever was once rampant in England, held no terrors for John Howard, the prison reformer. While in a cell he would hold to his nose a vial of aromatic vinegar and on going home would wash and change his clothes, though even these precautions he later abandoned. People thought his powers bordered on the magical pressed him for his secret and refused to believe his explanations that. his immunity was due to fearlessness cleanliness and temperance. He ate no flesh and very little of anything; he drank neither wine nor spirits and went to bed early and rose early. And his asceticism enabled him to let light into the most noisome dungeons and to live to the age of sixty-four.-London Graphic.

! at that There were four other asp!r- ants to fame in that class, and young AIcGovern trounced them all in Jig time.
 There were several painful inter views with his mother after that, but
 Terry persisted, and finally the money that he was able to take home to her made her forget her former objections
 to a pugiIfstic career for her young
 hopeful. Charlie Mayhood became Terry's manager, and in 1897, when
 he was only seventeen, Terry entered
 the rani-s as a fu11-fIedged profession al fighter.
 At that period another little Brook Iynite, Tommy Sullivan, afterward featherweight champion and now the
 owner of a fight club in St. Louis, was just beginning his career, and he fought Terry to a draw in ten rounds. Except for this affair with Brooklyn Tommy, Terry whipped all the men he met in his first year in the ring. In 1898 he defeated several welk known batt1ers, including Harry Forbes, Aus tin Rice and Billy Maynard, and all though he lost on a foul to Tim Ca1la- han, he afterward whipped that gladiator. In 1899 Terrible Terry knocked out the great little Sicilian, Casper Leon; stopped Ped1ar Palmer, the English champion, in less than a round, and put several other good boys to sleep.
 By this time Terry was the idol of the Brooklyn and New York fans. He had cleaned up the bantamweight division and was the recognized cham pion of that class, Jimmy Barry hav- ing retired. In 1900 Terry became a featherweight and whipped George Dixon, the little black boy whose clev- erness had aroused the admiration and awe of McGovern in his younger days. For nearly two years all of the best featherweights, and even Frank Erne, the lightweight cham pion, fell before Terry's failing fists. Then came that astonishing upset of the dope, when late in 1901 Young Corbett,l the Denver dark horse, took Terry's measure at Hartford. That was the end of McGovern as a cham pion, and an fnsiduous mental disease afterward forced his retirement from the ring where he had reigned- as king of the little fellows.

Be Prepared.

Daniel Webster once told a friend that his great speech in reply to Hayne, which is the high water mark of modern eloquence, but which at the time was supposed to have been deliv- cred without preparation, had been substantially prepared long before When called upon suddenly to reply to the fiery CaroIinian's attacks, which so alarmed the New Englanders at the capital, he was entirely at ease and ready for the fray, for, as he said, he had "oaly to turn to his notes tucked away in a pigeonhele'' and refresh his recollection. If Hayne," he said had tried to make a speech to it my notes he could not have hit them bet ter. No man is inspired by the ccca- sion. never was"

J. look ed in vain for the return of his gar ments. They became urgently neces sary, and he sent a messenger to de mand them back again.

PLAZA

It is doubtful if any of the so-ca11ed war pictures lately released by moving picture concerns were half so thrill ing, actually realistic, or scenica1ly beautiful as the Triang1e's latest pro- duction, Bullets and Brown Eyes, which drew big houses at the Plaza theatre yesterday. Miss Bessie Bar risca1e,1 the noted emotional star, is featured in the play, the story of which gintermingIes with true artistry a. pretty romance and a fierce war. between two mythical countries The picture presents the war scenes in a manner entirely new and pIeases be- cause the many thrilling scenes are c1everIy interspersed so that the audi ence juggles it's most intense interest betvVeen the fnpeIHng romantic story and the great conflict. Miss Barris- ca1e has an unusually large cast in support. The picture is in five parts.
 Fred Mace is the favorite in the two-part Keystone comedy entitled, ':rhe Village Vampire.''
 Miss Ham1et,' a musical trayesty on Shakespeare's great work head lines the vaudeville program. A cast of eight talented and strfking1y pretty Iyoun4 women is required to. present the act and the hunor offered by three male performers in the act serves to keep the audience in an up roar of laughter from the first to the last. It is farce pure and simple but .1arce of a sort that makes you laugh whether you feel in the mood or not.
 Lazar and Dale in their Ethiopian diversion of song and smusfca1ities'' entitled Joining the Union'' had everything their own way throughout. Both are gifted comedians and musi- clans and their material is up to the moment.
 Sol Burns in Hebrew character songs and chatter kept the laughs pcomfng at a. lively clip while the Ozays in their original Juggling fan tasy entitled "A Night at Rector's'' were very favorabIy received.

Largest Hydraulic Lift Lock.

The largest hydraulic lift lock in the world is at Petersboreugh, Canada. It consists of two great steel boxes or pontoons, moving up and down be tween guiding towers. When a boat moves into one of the two pentoens the lock gates are closed behind it, and water is pumped into the other pon- toon until it becomes heavier than that containing the boat, which then, being overweighted, rises bodily into the air until it reaches the level of the upper canal. The boats are lifted a total dis tance of sixty-fve feet, the gates and capstans being operated entirely by hydraulic power. The time of lockage for boats is about twelve minutes, the actual time of the vertical lift being one and one-half minutes.-St. Nicho- las.

There has been many rumors as to
the German submarine Bremen, which
for the past two months has been due
to arrive in American waters, but to
the present, no sign Of her arrival at
any of our ports has been given The
Berlin papers of Thursday issued en-
thusiastic announcements that the Bre.
men had arrived at New London, Conn,
which caused no little flutter among
the daily papers of the North, until it
was found that there. was no truth to
the story. The Bremen sailed early
in August, and is said to have been
sighted numerous times. A diamond
merchant gave out the information that
she had been captured with $25,OOO,OOO
worth Of diamonds and other valuables
and taken to an English port, but this
report never received the confirmation

little is heard, is the local building and

ahead helping those who need to build

is said, and truly, for every Ameri-

the home he lives in. Probably few
know that the building and loan asso-

between seventy and eighty thousand
dollars-every dollar of which means

candidate, seems to be making little
or no impression upon his audiences
His attack upon the tariff in his Pitts
burg speech on Wednesday night fell
flat. The argument advanced that pros

at peace, did not have sufficient sub
stance to be convincing, and since all
