GOOD NEWS FROM FLORIDA

met Paul Thomas, a prominent cit fzen of Quincy, Fla, here yesterday As merchant and business man of his section he has had chances to know his state, and he is optimistic as to the. outlook in all lines
 Much interest attaches to the statement of Governor-elect Catts that he is going to make Florida the play ground of the world said Mir Thomas. Many seem to think that he had in mind an open state, so to speak. But I hardly think he thought of it in that way. MyIdea is that he meant that he was going to make the state, so far as he could. contribute to the higher and better interests of those who come to be in it, either permanently or just for a day"
 MT. Thomas felt that the new eXecu- tive gave promise of effective service to the people and that the time of his term ought to be one in every way satisfactory. 'I feel that we are en- tering upon a prosperous era and am convinced that the new governor will have most generous support"
 Mir. Catts, by the way, is an Alabama man. It is also of interest that Mrs. Thomas is an Alabama girl, being ] member of a prominent Livingston family.

FOX STAR HAS VERY DIFFICULT PART IN
 REGENT RELEASE
Where Love Leads" Is the Name of Photoplay, Featur- ing Miss Ormi Hawley, Ap- bearing at the Royal.

Ormi Hawley has the difficult part of acting young sweetheart, aging mother and then returning to act young sweetheart again in the new William Fox photodrama Where Love Leads" which plays at the Royal to- day and Sunday. But she stands the test well.
 l. As Marion Barstow she is influenced by her parents to marry Sir Rankin Chatsworth (Charles Craig). an Eng fish earl, although she was in love with a younger man.
 Seventeen years later Marion has been neglected by Sir Rankin, who tired of her soon after the honeymoon. She now has her only consolation, her two daughters, Kathleen Qleen Hume) and Rose (Pauline Curley). Sir Ran kin brings a houseful Of disreputable guests who drink and carouse all night. Marion realizes that her daughters must not be brought up in such an atmosphere and has a scene with Sir Rankin, but he refuses to mend his ways.
 Marion's mother has written, begging her to send the girls to America for visit. She then takes the girls to the steamer, and while bidding good bye to them. is approached by Camille Dore Dorothy Rogers), known as the Gold Queen in the Tenderloin Camille is travelling under an assumed name, and as she is very respectable and aristocratic looking, Marion does not hesitate to entrust the girls to her care. Camille sees that she has made find in the two girls and cables a confederate to prevent the Grandpar- ents from meeting the steamer on the arrival
 The girls are rescued by Richard Warren, a newspaperman who had been MarioD's sweethearth before she was forced to marry the English mo- bleman. The former lovers are united in the strangest sort of way which ends the picture with happy hugh.
 Miss Hawley makes as good moth CT as a sweetheart school girl. which in the same production is a difficult test.

GERMANY ADMITS
 SINKING AMERICAN
(Continued From Page D

ton on this point Count von Bern storff. the German ambassador, called at the state department during the day, and also sought this information He was told by Secretary Lansing that the United States was not yet in a position to answer the inquiry, but would do so as quickly as possible. As a result of the developments of the day il was indicated by officials
 that no action could be expected in
 the immediate future on the Marina case, admittedly one of the two most serious pending between the United States and Germany. The other is that of the British liner Arabic, sunk
 in the Mediterranean. Germany, it is ! understood is ready to acknowledge and make offers Of settlement if it is established that the Marina was not in the British transport service When
 the vessel was sunk it was stated in dispatches from London that she pre-
 viously had been connected with the transport service. and also that when she sailed on her last voyage she was armed with a gun astern. manned by two British naval sunneFs.
 If the ship was in public service 1. prior to being torpedoed, some state department officials take the position
 that the presumption was in favor of
 the position that an enemy might
 have believed her still to be a trans
 port at the time of the attack. In or.
 der to clear up this point the nature
 of her previous charter. the orders
 under which she was sailing and the
 character of her officers and crew
 will be investigated.

"A block away from that house he dismounted, sauntering casually up to the home of Legar'S confederate as a tradesman's delivery wagon stopped before it.
 Boy" he said to the youthful driv- CT of the wagon, "that housemaid at the door there is my steady. But we scrapped and she won't even see me. Here's dollar if you let me hand in that box of groceries for you!"
 Sure" said the boy, as he pocketed the bill. Manley, whistling blithely, carried his armful of parcels into the tradesman's entrance.
 My driver says these things weren't paid for," he coolly an- nounced.
 "Dey vass paid for, ef'ry-ding vass paid for!" cried the German girl.
 Then you go and tell him that" was the others calm suggestion. And as the belligerent-eyed maid strode out to the wagon Manley slipped in through the still open door, dropped his parcels and stole quickly yet guardedly up through the silent house.
 When he came to a large room, half library and half laboratory, he stared in wonder at the strange ap- paratus which stood on a table in the center of this room. This appa- ratus, at first sight, he thought to be an Array machine. But a more careful inspection of it showed him that It carried many of the features Of wireless equipment. He bent over 1t, puzzled, tentatively moving from side to side a huge tubular re- Hector of polished metal, as menac- ing and sinister looking as the bar- rel of a machine gun. He even stopped and interrogatively turned a switch which stood on one side of the apparatus. The next moment a white ray pierced the air of the shadowy room, centering a disk of vague incandescence on the wall paper before him. Yet even before he could throw back that switch a thin coil of smoke curled up rom the scorched paper, and Manley, star- ing at it, gave sudden gasp of com. prehension.
 But he had no time to digest that discovery, for even as he stood there he heard the sound of approaching steps. He saw a door on his right and darted through it. He realized as soon as he had done so that he had committed the fatal error of div ing into a trap. For he found him. self in a small clothes closet hung with garments of many descriptions. And already he could hear the sound of steps.
 AS he peered out through the still partly opened door he saw that 1t was the German maid who had en- tered the room. Then she crossed 70 the closet door itself, heightened the edge of the disordered rug, closed the door and turned the key in the lock.
 A moment later Manley, with his ear against the panel. heard the sound of heavier steps. Then came the even more interesting sound o1 voices.
 well, vat do you say of Oldt Stein now, maybe? You still t'ink he talk foolish ven he claim dose actinic rays in conjunction init converging wire- less impulses couldn't maybe start a leetle combustion von or two miles away, eh?"
 "A little combustion, Stein?" said an unknown voice. You've pe6aied 'em out like gunf1re all over the damned city. And if that tower had been sixty feet higher you'd have got every building Legar had marked or his map"

sponded to the repeated shouts for speed the fight between the burly fugitive and his pursuer was renewed. It was brief fight and bitter one But now, Manley saw, it was his strength alone against three of the en- emy, all clawing and striking at him as he clung to the speeding car. And one we'll placed blow sent him sud- denly catapulting from his swaying perch, head foremost into pyramid of dry sand and cement piled there by gang of street menders.
 
 He lay there, stunned and notion less, for a second or two, enveloped in a cloud of dust as thick and eruptive as shell smoke. Then his senses came back to him, and rolling over into the open roadway he took the camera
