With Lillian Russell for a tumultu-
ously welcomed topliner. a genuinely
clever new playlet and a succession of
numbers that captured as many re-
calls as time allowed, Washington

SALVATION ARMY IS
 AHEAD THRU PICTURE
"A Gutter Magdalene", To- night at Royal, Helps
 Worthy Cause.

: The Salvation Army of Lbs Angeles is richer by many hundreds of dollars from the taking of the Jesse L. Lasky production of "A Gutter Magdalene,' which will be seen at the Royal today, with the distinguished actress, Fannie Ward, in the title role. In this pic ture Miss Ward is seen as private in this army of salvation. When the commander of the local barracks was approached for permission to use the members of his band and the interior of the barracks for motion picture pur- poses, the request met with a refusal, but when he learned that the story dealt with the silent work of this army of heroes, he readily consented. After using the barracks for several days, the Lasky company sent them a substantial check as a token of appre- ciation. It is a Paramount Program release.

GERARD TALKS OVER GERMAN SITUATION
 WITH PRESIDENT
Believed That He Discussed Means of Peace, but Ambas- sador to Germany Refuses to Discuss Interview.
(By Review Leased Wire.)

LONG BRANCH, Oct 24-James w. Gerard, American ambassador to Ger many, called at Shadow Lawn today to discuss with President Wilson what the ambassador characterized later as every phase of the situation inNclv- ing my work at Berlin" He luuChed with the President and remained with him afterward, for more than two hours.
 The ambassador said he planned to remain in this country until after the election but would take no part in the presidential campaign. He talked freely with reporters about various phases of the German situation, but refused absolutely to be quoted or to allow the publication of what he said. 'I am representing the whole nation and cannot mix in politics" he said. MT. Gerard would not say specifically that he had discussed the issue of peace with the President but in reply to a direct question, said:
 We discussed the entire situation"
 The ambassador said he expected to see the President again before leaving for Berlin. He declared he had not begun to make definite plans for sailing and would not do so for two or three weeks. He mentioned one boat sailing the middle of Novem- Der and another the first of December as one he might take if conditions were favorable.
 Ambassador Gerard said the Ger man emperor was seldom in Berlin but spent most of his time on either the western or the eastern front. The ambassador is understood to have gone over details of conditions in Germany with the President.

 NED WHITE IN VERSE

Ned White, of Bisbee, along the line of his "Westland Echoes" has written some verses dedicated to Lieutenant Adair who was killed in the Carrizal massacre.
 They follow:
 THE DUMB MESSENGER.
 Dedicated to Lieutenant Adair and the Colored Troopers who fell in the battle of Carrizal, the Dumb Messen- ger. The Lieutenant's made, recently returned to the United States. Take her, keep her, Ye who loved him, Twas she who saw the hero die She stood with dropping head beside
 him
 And heard the Mexican's battle cry. She saw her master with his comrades Dauntless soldiers one and all, Facing death with jest and laughter She saw the gallant troopers fall. Oh what tales of pain and anguish, Oh what tales of bitter hate, What a story she could tell us Could her poor mute tongue relate. Sad the memory of her master, Who by the hands of treachery fell, What a tale of that disaster Could the poor dumb creature tell. Oh what tales of grief and anguish, Oh what tales of bitter hate, Oh what memories of the hardship Could her silent tongue relate. Take her, keep her, Ye who loved him, For she was with him when he fell, What story she might tell you Could her mute tongue only tell
