 THE PLAZA TODAY

The tenth episode of the great po- litical serial Graft" which has the right of way at the Plaza theater, always on Saturday is the feature to- day there. The Harbor Transporta- tiOn Trust is the title of this in- stallment and it is a thrilling episode It combines the work of a real news paper against the evils that afflict the body polite as well as showing the work of determined and fearless officials. As usual Bruce Larnigan, Hobart Henley) and Tom Larnigan (Elarry Carey) and Dorothy Maxwell (Jane NovalD are in the thick of the fight. Tom Larnigan operating for the decent citizens ties the harbor transportation crowd into the graft syndicate in such a way that Grant Fisher the member for this section of illegal operations beats it to fairer and easier climes This crosses an other off the book. On the same program there will be some corking Universal pictures among which is 'The Connecting Link with Sherman Bainhridge and Edythe Sterling in the leads. Tn addition to the great Craft serial today. Manager Cave ness has obtained a three Char ley Chaplin special called Charley the Gang Leader" which will be run with the program.

Lam ara

William Farnum is making a single appearance at the Lamara theater today only in C. NJ Sheldons great story The Niger" story of politi- cal life in the south. This picture opened the New York Hippodrome when it was given over to pictures and packed and damned the place. It is Q most realistic play because it has something of the race trouble in it that infects the south at times So strongly was this objected to at one time that in some towns permission to show it was revoked However, there is not that objectionable feature
 to it that many suppose. A young man of supposed quality high in poli- 1 ties makes a successful race for gov ernor and decided to be his own gov ernor regardless of the bosses. How ever there is something in his life 1 that they know that he doesn't. Back wonder one of his ancestors was for
 getful of his blood and as a result
 there is a mixture of negro blood in this man. Little though it is it is ] taint enough and he is forced to give up his sweetheart. resign his position l but he devotes his life to the up- l building of the black race Truely a | noble calling

wife is a corking part and Florence Reed gets much out of it. There are times when the action is so fast that one wonders how she can make him understand that he must be her hus band in name only, but the resource fulness of the mother triumphs to a happy ending. Along with this story the comedy Mutt and Jeff in the Hospital arrived and was a source of delight to the grown ups as we'll as the kiddies. There are plenty of folks who will tell you that they go to take the children but when Mutt shot little Jeff in the foot yesterday so that the dwarf could get into the hospital to be kissed by the French nurses there was not a dry eye in the big Columbia and that too, despite the cooling draft that comes out of the big fan in the basement. They all like Mutt and Jeff and there is a reason. Today a new Pathe Weekly is billed with the fashion show of the week end news reel.

ROAD FLOODING IS
 ENABLE OFFENCE
Fact Demonstrated by County When c. R. BicknelI Is Given $25 Fine
 For Inundating Grand Ave.

Farmers and ranchers run just as much danger of being dragged into court these days as bootleggers and for much the same reason, the only difference being that irrigation water is the liquor substitute. Let a farmer give away a bit of water and he will be prosecuted the full measure of the law.
 This was demonstrated yesterday when c. R. Bicknell was fined $25 in Judge De Souzas court yesterday for flooding the roads. The complaining witness was County Engineer Harold Bargman and there were some half dozen witnesses who testified as to the flooded condition of Grand avenue One woman testified that she lost sev- eral chickens in the flood but it is un- derstood that she will not bring suit for damages.
 Assistant County Attorney G. $. Cunningham prosecuted the case and Struckmeyer X Jenckes represented the defendant.
