Columbia Has Good offerina

The Secret of the Swamp sounds
 like a melodrGma and such it starts
 out but the finish of the picture is so
 refreshing, so removed from the con
 vential that one wonders why some
 director tossed for an original thought
 in movie making has not seen this
 chance long ago. The writer saw the
 picture at the Super0a theater in
 Los Angeles the past week and no comedy that has been produced in
 pictures took more of laugh than
 the ending few feet of this film story.
 TC disclose the denouement would be
 to rob the picture of it's claim to dis
 tirction. ard would iHjure the inter
 est that the patron is sure to feel in the development of the plot of this
 Blue Bird play. The Deacon of the picture is a hard old skin flint and
 whtn he disappears and it looks as if he had been murdered there is not
 great deal of sympathy but the the law is the law and it demands that those responsible for the killing if there has been one must be pun ished. When the young man. who to save his sweethearts father, takes tho blame for the Deasons' supposed demise and is about to be sent to jail the story takes the most unusual twist that h2s ever been added to d picture and those who saw 1t yester- day at the Columbia will agree that here is a real ending to q film story. A one-reel comenv adds to the pro-
 gram that is in the feature alone a | fine entertainment. The Secret Of the 1 Swamp will De followed by Metro | picture tomorrow "The River of Ro- nance" another story al good as the "Ciuitter." made by the same people

And this does not detract frcm the Secret" either, for it has a very fine irstalment on.
 The Silllen Spider is a story of 2 dancer q cabaret dancer at that. the part taken by Miss Rich. She proves two things in the picture.

New York, April 5.-An anonymous
letter, introduced in evidence at the
trial here today of Cecilio Ocon, init
mate friend of General Felix Diaz and
Pablo A. Lopez, charged with snug
Cling a diamond necklace from Mexi-
co into the United States, was said to
have given the customs authorities
their first intimation of the alleged
fraud. The letter mailed March /

others who were declared to be i'm
plicated in a conspiracy to smuggle
into the United States valuables OBJ
tanned by looting and plundering and

antiques in their possession.
Ocon, formerly one of the wealth.
lest men in Mexico City, who fed from
there with General Diaz during the
Huerta regime, denied there was any
smuggling conspiracy, adding that the
necklace in question belonged to his
wife. He said he wrote to his agents
in Mexico City for funds and they
sent the piece of jewelry, valued at
$4,000 to him by Lopez. He pleaded ig-
norance of the regulation which re-
quires that a declaration and payment
of duty be made in sucn cases.
Although he claims to own dock con-
cessions at Tampico worth $4,000, 600,
Ocon said he had been forced to pawn
family jewelry in order to support
New York. Huerta, he said, had con-
fiscated other property belonging to
him in Mexico City that was worth
millions of dollars
