Three Days Offering
At Vining Theatre
Monday.


Tonight's Vining Theatre attrac-
tion is five-part Metro production,
"Dorian's Divorce" starring Lionel
Barrymore. backed up by a cast of
actors nearly every one of whom are
stars of the first magnitude. The
play has vivid plot, alive with ac-
tion and yet lacking any hint of
melodrama. 1t is the kind of play
which is seldom seen on any screen
and which always makes a hit with
the picture fans. The story tells of
the self-sacrifices and heroism of a
broken broker and his final return to
happiness.
Tuesday.
"The Innocent Lie" is the attrac-
tive title of captivating picture
play which will please Vining Thea
ire patrons on Tuesday evening. Miss
Valentine Grant, one of the new gal
aXy of stars, is in the leading role,
that of a poor emigrant. The play
Peg O. My Heart" turned around,
with the Irish girl coming to America
and winning the hearts of the family
who adopt her. The thrilling wind
up of the play gives it a vivacity
which the other lacked.
Wednesday.
On Wednesday evening Miss Petit
coats" with Alice Brady in the lead,
will appear at the Vining. The Mo
tion Picture World, technical mag
azine not often given to commenda-
tion of pictures, has to say of this
picture:
"a five-reel Peerless production.
the book by Dwight Tilton and seem
ario by Harley Knoles, who also di-
rected the picture. This tells fresh,
well-rounded story. abounding in hu-
NOR and not lacking in pathos and
the deeper emotions. Alice Brady
plays the part of mill worker raised
by her grandfather, a retired sea cap
tain. She rises in station and wins
happiness despite the tongue of scan
dal. All of the subordinate parts are
in good hands, Johnny Hines and
Arthur Ashley doing particularly
good work. The production is entire
ly commendable and should have
wide appeal"

10 KILLED, 40 HURT,
IN TRAIN WRECK
Disaster Occurs This Morning
On New York Central.
Especial dispatch to the JournaI9

Cleveland, O. March 29-Three
New York Central railroad trains. in
Guiding the paltial Twentieth Century
limited. were piled up at Amherst,
Ohio, early today. resulting in the loss
of 10 lives ana the injury Of 40 per
sons. Several of the injured may
die.
According to the best available ae-
counts. the wreck occurred al 10
o'clock in a thick fog as the result
of an inexplicabIe mixup in signals.
The second section OF the eastbound
Lake Shore passenger train crashed
into the rear of the first section.
Shortly afterward the westbound lin.
tied, travelling at high speed, ran in
to the wreck No passengeres on the
limited were injured. railroad officials
said. although a Pullman porter is
missing.
Most Of the dead and injured were
taken from the rear coaches y the
first section. shortly after the crash,
Mrs. Mary Maiston. Of indianapolis,
gave birth to a child on the wrecked
day coach. Mrs Maiston was not in
jured Two Of the ears we're thrown
across the adjoining tracks, and it
was into that wreckage that the lin
tied plowed. The toll of death would
probably have been much heavier
but for the fact that most of the
cars were of steel All the casualties
occurred in the wooden coaches. The
dead and injured were taken to Ely
ria, five miles away.

INTEREST GROWING
IN EPISCOPAL MISSION
And Large Congregation Hears
Rev. Herbert Parrish.

Interest in the mission being held
in Trinity Episcopal church by the
Rev, Herbert Parrish is growing
rapidly A large congregation was in
attendance at the opesling service in
spite OF the inclement weather but
the congregation last might was still
larger The Rev. Mr. Parrish spoke
on The Problem of Evil" and held
the large congregation spellhound as
culties imposed on human life by
evil and traced it all back to its orr.
gin the will and then pointed out
the Way of the Cross of Christ.
Be not overcome of eva but over
come evil with good rs or way of es
cape, the help of Jesus our only help
and solution of the problem, 1t is a
rare thing indeed that a sermon as
powerful and stirring. and at the
same time so beautiful and teaching
is the one last night is heard. II was
very evident that the Rev Mr.. Par
IRISH had the closest attention of the
whole congregation from start to fin
ish. After the sermon hymn was
sung and then the missionary gave
II short but very striking and enlight-
ening instruction on Prayer"
No greater evidence of the power
and success OF the mission could be
asked for than the large congrega-
lions that have been attending these
services IN spite of the eisagreeable
weather and especially in the num-
Der of persons who have in times past
been neglected of the church and
Her Worship. but none are coming
to the mission. Surprisingly large
congregations attend the early morn,
encouraging stll these congregations
are steadily growing. The attendance
this morning was just double that of
Monday morning and after the cele-
bratica Of the Holy Eucharist the
Sacrament Of Baptism was admins
tered
The singing of old familiar and
much loved hymns by both choir and
congregation was atlly Inspiring
The anthem last night by the choir
was Shippers "Trust Ye in the Lord,
the solo part taken by Miss Eliza
beth Hannis. The anthem tonight
will be 1.-THE Kingdom of Love Ny
Shepherd is The Rev Mr. Parrish
will speak on ~Some Difficulties Of
Faith.
AS announced several days ago il
is the object of the local congre8a-
ton to make this mission not mere
ly selfish benefit to themselves,
but an inspiration to all Christians
OF whatever name and a spiritual
blessing to the whole city. In view Of
that fact the support and assistance
which many othe- Christians and
and some OF Their ministers have
giyea both by their presence at the
services and in other ways is deep
ly appreciated The Mission event at
this early stage has already accom-
plished much good and gives every
promise of SPLENDID results for all.
