Never before has Charlie Chaplin
crammed so many laughs into a film
as he has in his burlesque on Carmen"
just released The fourth reel, par
ticularly, is an example Of the finest
comedy ever constructed. The play
is riot of fun and is destined to be-
come a classic in screen humor.
Charles Chaplin, as Lieutenant Darn
Hosiery-Don Jose in the OPERAS
sent to a province in Spain to stop
smuggling. The smugglers try to bribe
him, but he steals their money. SO
they have nothing to bribe him with.
Edna P,lrviance, as the beautiful
and unscrupulous gypsy Carmen,
tempts him. He falls prey to her
establishments. A fellow officer also
loves Carmen, and he and Chaplin
fight comedy duel, in which Lieuten-
ant Hosiery is victor. The other off,
Ger is killed, but shortly afterward de-
cides to come back to life.
Hosiery fees, and inasmuch as he
is no more in authority. Carmen runs
away with a popular toreador. Hos
iery follows her, stabs her, and then
himself with stage knife. While they
are lying on the ground dead the
toreador makes Jose feel the toe of his
boot, which quickly brings him to
life, and the play ends with laugh
instead of the wonted tears.

President Wilson has started on
the campaign for reelection. He
has chosen an issue not originally
congenial to him. but one which he
could not safely leave in the hands
of the opposition. He is already as
good as nominated he is each
day writing a new plank In his plat
form, for the country will judge by
what he does rather than by what
his platform says To an extraor-
binary degree the contest viii center
about his views and his personality,
While he has done some good things,
for which he deserves commentator.
like securing the passage of the new
federal reserve system, he has be-
come. by and large, exceeding vulner-
able. He was a minority president at
the start The two wings of the di-
vided opposition to him OF 1912 are
now united In these circumstances
his reelection would be a surprise. If
it should by any chance come to pass.
It would upset most Of the calculations
of the almanac-makers.

From st. Die to lie Rubin is in the

minutes, writes e. Alexander Powell
in scrib1er's Magazine. We went SO
fast that the teleE raph poles looked
like the paiings in ticket fence. and
we took the corners on two wheels so
as to save rubber
Of one thing am quite certain-if
| am killed in this war, it is not going
to be by shell or a bullet: it is going
to be in a military motor car. No cars
save military ones are permitted on
the roads in the zone OF operations.
and for the military cars no speed
limit exists. AS a result the drivers
tear through the country as though
they we're in the Vanderbilt cup race.
Sometimes, Of course. a wheel comes
of. or they meet another vehicle when

pemoeratlc Extravanance.

The Democratic congress which
went out of existence last March
authorized the expenditure. for 1915
and 1916, of SIT, 100000 more than the
last Republican congress did for the
two preceding years. and the esti-
mated appropriations for 1917. to be
made by the present congress, amount
TO $170.000,000 more than those for
1916. And the increase cannot be at
tributed entirely to the cost Of mill
tary preparedness. The estimated APP
preparations for that purpose in 1877
now amount to only $96 100000. which
is good deal less than $4,000, 00O On
top Of this is the fact that appropria-
lions contemplated for some Of the
federal departments are too small and
will nave TO be added to later by
emergency legislation. The few de-
creases made in providing for running
expense are more than made up for by
increases In other places.
