peramental siren. She simply gives an
exceedingly unreserved portrayal of a
woman lacking in fine feelings. Her act
ing is so forceful in it's way that some
of the laundering subtitles which de-
scribe her seem unnecessary.
Charles Ray plays a small role in the
production. The story of his infatuation
for Leila and his tragic suicide are told
in the first two reels. Mr. Ray acts with
his usual skill. Wyndham Standing has
the leading role opposite Miss Glaum and
Howard Hickman is excellent in a small
part.
The following is the cast; Leila Aras

Charles Ray; John Morton, Howard

BEWARE OF LOCKJAW.

With the approach of Independence day and it's celebration, health author ities of the cities and nation are again taking occasion to warn Young Ameri- ca and it's parents against the menace concealed in fire crackers and toy re- volvers of the deadly tetanus germ, which guarantee to ninety-five per cent of those once innoculated painful death. Take care of any wounds result ing from fireorks, immediately is the order No matter how small the hurt may be, have it attended to.
 The campaign which has been car ried on in recent years against lock- jaw has been productive Of great re- suits. The United States Public Health Service Bulletin states that in 1905 there were 104 deaths from the disease as result of Fourth of July accidents. Last year there was but one. One child in Maine, hurt on the Fourth, developed the disease and died. There fore the service is carrying on the
 
 tive in cutting down the death rate. It is hoped that this year there will be no deaths from the illness which may be prevented but not cured. A physi- cian's attendance is imperative in all cases warns the department and little reliance should be placed upon home treatment.
 Wounds from the blank cartridge are said to be the most dangerous though other explosives are partly so. The wadding of a blank, when carried into a wound, takes with it the ba- cilli. These multiply and produce the disease. The bacili thrive only when oxygen is lacking and the opening up of wounds to the air allow this heal ing agent to perform it's work. Should they be allowedf to close and fester the sufferer will probably be dead within a short time. Take care of your wounds, if you have any, and death will be averted from your door for the time being.

NO DRUNKARDS NEED APPLY

# The Herald has received from a
 leader, whose intentions are no doubt #pf the best, the suggestion that about twenty young men who are addicted to sshe use of alcoholic liquor be sent to 8the firing line first and thus rid the Scommunity of several citizens it could we'll spare.
 The mistake that the United States army or navy is the proper place for young men whose environment, associ- ations or moral weaknesses have made them ndesirable to @ community, is one that is frequently made by many
 of our best men and women. But it is a serious mistake, nevertheless. 9Uncle sam and John Barleycorn are gnot friends. Uncle Sam wants fight Brs with blood, not alcohol, in their
 veins, and it seems a pity that so many
 people labor under the false belief That our army and navy are composed
 of men who turned to them when no
 other occupation was at hand. Exces-
 5iye drinking decreases mans fight
 ng ability and it lowers his moral
 stamina so that he is unable to stand up in the face of fire from the enemy's trenches. To borrow a phrase from the diamond, he is not there in the pinches." He strikes out just when a
 nit might cause dismay in the ranks of the foe. To subscribe to the faith that the United States army and navy depend on the dregs of the purlieu for it's personnel is a reflection on the most honorable calling known since perpetual night lifted her veil from Ehe earth. .a.
 This is the day of temperance. The employer of labor. does not engage for work men who are slaves to the drink habit. Total abstinence is not

required in all lines but the up-to-date business man does demand temper ance at least. Just at present Uncle sam in the greatest employer of men in this country and the drunkard will not do. His place is far from the fir ing line.
 No doubt the reader who con- tributed the suggestion to the Herald believed it an excellent means of dis posing of some of our young men but it was an unfortunate suggestion, es- pecially at this time. And then again, it must not be forgotten that a drunk ard is not beyond redemption and that some day he may emerge from the net that holds him close today and be the man among men in the crisis.
 Our correspondent is further re- ferred to the Bible where he may find quotation concerning throwing the first stone.

THE BRITISH DRIVE.

The long promised British offensive it is announced today, is at last under way and is the f1ercest encounter so far undergone by the troops of either side, excelling even the recent fighting in Verdun for it's sustained bonn bard ment and in the number of men in volved. Along a front of twenty miles two million British fighting men are sweeping forward in an attempt to capture the first line trenches i'm mediately before them. The French are also attacking in the same neigh borhood but not on such a large scale.
 For week the artillery men, well supplied with ammunition have been preparing the way for the troops to make the attempt. Over one million shells a day have been hurled miles into space to annihilate the breast work of the enemy and to draw a line back of the trenches to cut off supplies. The English communica- ton states that German prisoners say that many of the men in the first line of trenches have not received food for five days, so intense was the "cur- tain of fire" drawn by the British guns. The inference is that ammuni- tion is also lacking to the Germans.
 Will this attempt of the British prove successful in breaking the back bone of the German lines of defense? Undoubtedly for many miles back into the country which they have held the Teutons have supplied well forti- fled points to which they may retire should their first line be taken. In event that the British advance should continue, it will probably be slow un- less an enormous number of men are captured or killed, leaving but a few to hold the back lines. Of course the Russian advance in another sec tor is making it an opportune time for the French and English to strike, as it has removed many of the soldiers from the line in the west
 The progress of the British troops from day to day in their effort will be earnestly watched by friend and foe in this country. It is already claimed that one line of trenches has been captured. These may not be held or the defense may be pushed further back toward the Fatherland, driving it's defenders before #. One thing is certain and that is that the British have chosen this time to make the supreme attempt and that large amounts of ammunition are at hand in the rear to keep up the cannonad-

No Proof Shown That William KawliS
 Had Been Annoying Young Girl.

The states case against William Kawlis, charged with making offen- sive advances toward Maria Angelo, a 15 year old girl living at 54 Union street, fell flat this morning and Judge James T. Meskill ended the proceedings by ordering Kawlis to cease annoying young girls.
 The complainant has been in this country only two months and in this city only six weeks. She did not know where she lived, where she worked or when Kawlis was supposed to have annoyed her. She insisted however that Kawlis had tried to induce her to run away with him and get mar ried.
