'(ABARlA" AT THE NIXON
OPERA HOUSE CHRISTMAS

AS big Christmas feature offer
ing, D'Annunzio's stupendous spec
tacle "Cabiria" will be presented at
the Nixon next Monday night, to-
gether with the Hanly Sisters in
singing. dancing and acrobatic act.
"Cabiria" is a $250,000 production
in eleven parts and is a drama deal
ing with the death struggle between
Rome and Carthage, and it is as real
as real SIN can make it. The tremu-
lous and turbulent times of the pc
riod some 230 years before Christ is
the background upon which the cru
dite D'Annunzio has placed his
strangely interesting narrative. In
this remarkable semi-historical ro-
nance the author of La Citto Mota,
the creator of Francesca di Remini"
and La Pisanella," the inventor of
the strangely contrasted "St. Sebas-
tian" and "Parisina." the creator of
immortal roles for Duse, Ida Ruben
stein and Aguglia, gives deep insight
and breadth of genius. The work is
dignified and exalted to literal
pane hltnertO unreacbed by nlm|
drama.
The Hanley Sisters in their singing
dancing and aerobatic act, will top
this bill off, making it the biggest
and most phenomenal program that
has been shown at the Nixon for
some time.
A special musical program has been
arranged by the orchestra, including
special numbers and solos as follows:
Piano solo, "The Hongroise Rhapso-
die No. 2" (by Franz Liszt), Mrs. t
S. Jones; saxophone solo, Calvary"
(by p. Rodney, Mr.. T. S. Jones; xyl-
ophone solo, "Xmas Joys" Mr.. Bert
Pitcher. There will be one show only,
commencing at 8:15.

COMMON LAW" AT THE
AMERICAN CHRISTMAS

The story of the screen version of
Robert w. Chambers widely read
novel, "The Common Law" in which
Clara Kimball Young will appear at
the American theatre on Christmas
night is one that will appeal to every
patron of motion pictures.
Valerie West, an educated and cul-
tured girl who has become an artists
model through force of circumstances,
falls in love with Neville, a painter
for whom she poses. Her love is re-
turned, but owing to the artists So
cial connections, Valerie is convinced
that marriage would ruin his ca
reer. She offers herself in love to
the man of her heart and the day is
set on which she is to come to him
under "the common law"
Through a chain of incidents of
unusual dramatic power, Valerie con-
quers the objections of Neville's fam
lily and in the end the lovers find
themselves free to be united in the
safer and more conservative bonds
of the law made by man.
The characters in the story are
distant metropolitan types of unusual
interest. and as produced by Director
General Albert Capellani. the picture
promises to be the sensation of the
coming season.
In addition to the feature on Christ
mas night Charlie Chaplin will be
shown in "The Fireman. one of the
new Mutual-Chaplin series.

THE CHRISTMAS CRIB
AT ST. PAUL'S CHURCH

II may be of interest to mention
that the Christmas Crib is a repre-
sentation of the manger in Bethlehem
where the Nativity took place. This
custom is one Of very ancient origin.
but it remained for st. Francis of
Assist to popularize it and to give il
the tangible form it possesses at the
present time. When st. Francis Wis
tied Rome in 1928 his project re-
ceived the sanction of Pope Honorius
III. Leaving Rome, the saint arrived
at Greccio on Christmas eve. when,
through the aid of his friend Giovanni
Velita, he constructed a crib and
grouped therein the figures of the
Blessed Virgin and St Joseph. and
the shepherds who came to adore the
newborn Savior.

minutes. Interviews between kings
and representatives Of our foreign
service, of course, are sealed for all
time from public eyes and ears. In
substance, 1t appears, however, that
the king admitted that Welsh coal
had risen beyond all reason in price
and was getting very scarce in SPAIN
He would be delighted to obtain Amer
lean coal on better terms-sut, IL
ships brought coal from the Uaited
States to Spain. couldn't they take
something back to the United States.
Being very businesslike young king,
he was interested to know where
Spain would get off in the deal. Spain
raises oranges galore-what about
selling Spanish oranges to Americas
teeming millions?
Thereupon, as the story Is whis-
pered about, Mr.. Veditz very tactfully
submitted that more and better or
anges are raised in the u. s. A. than
anywhere else in the world, and that
he was very regretfully forced to the
admission that, much as he desired
otherwise, there could be nothing do
ing in oranges. Just stretch your
imagination bit here, and, without
violating official secrets, you may both
hear and see Mr.. Yeditz warming to
his argument and driving home this
clinching fact: Your majesty. nations
may live without oranges, but show me
anywhere on the face of the globe the
modern nation which can live without
COAL"
A few strokes of the kingly pen
wiped out the transportation tax-and
we are now selling coal to Spain to
beat the band.

RECORD COAL OUTPUT
Production in Bituminous Fields
Greatest Ever Known.
Increased Consumption by Railroads
and Industries Cause Boom In
First Six Months of Year.

Uncle Sans figures show that the
output of bituminous coal in the Unit
ed States during the first six months
of 1916 was the greatest ever recorded
in any half-year period.
Estimates by c. e. Lesher of the
geological survey, based on returns
from over a hundred railroads origi-
mating coal and coke shipments, indi-
cate that the production during this
period was 261 100000 tons, an in
crease of 80 per cent over the first six
months of 1915, and of per cent
over the last six months of the same
year, and greater by several million
tons than the record established in
the last half of 1913.
Compared with the first half of 1915,
the exports from the Atlantic seaboard
during the first six months of 1915 in
creased about 10 per cent, and the
exports to Canada nearly doubled.
The movement of bituminous coal
through the 500 canal on the Great
Lakes showed an increase of so per
cent, and the coal used in cooking has
increased nearly half.
Increased consumption by railroads
and by the iron and steel and nearly
all other industries has been large
factor in establishing this record.
From April, 1915, to January of the
present year the production of bitumi-
nous coal increased at a rapid rate,
with but temporary slackening in No
vember and December, due to car
shortage The output in January, 1916.
was more than go per cent greater
than in April. 1915. and the production
in February and March, 1916, was
nearly as great.
There is every indication that the
production during the last six months
of 1916 will equal If not exceed the
first six months, and that the output
In the calendar year 1916 will exceed
500.0O0,000 tons, establishing a new
record for bltuminous coal.

CHAPTER XIV.
The Light Of Dawn.

Doctor Billy sat with John Willett
in the latter's library. Between them
on the table stood the big cups just
drained Of strong black coffee which
Willett had brewed on their return
from the farm.
Zone would say the events of this
night could hardly have been crowded
into a week." said willett. He got up
and went to the window. Dawn was
breaking, hesitantly. AS he stood there,
conscious of the grayness and stiffness,
sensitive to the almost palpitant mys.
terry of that twilight. he became aware
Of warm suffusion of color, pale and
golden. turning the pallor of dawn
into soft and velvety haze. which
passed swiftly and merged into the
sharper CLEANS and shadows of the
rudy morning.
ut is always So" he said, coming
back to his chair. Critical events
slip SO rapidly into the past. Yester-
day is already far behind"
at must be So" rejoined Doctor
Jackson, ''in order that we may look
more clearly to the future" He met
his friends eye with CHEEKY and
beautiful smile. His face. lined with
fatigue, was yet very gentle.
BILLY, I'm SO thankful you were able
to do what you did for poor Lem. He
wandered back to Thomas and went
to sleep In the barn. Probably the FIRE
was caused by spark from his pipe.
Can't you see. If Lem had not been
saved. what position 1t would have
put my boy in? Even now arc you
sure"

Rallroad, Use Arkansa. Coal.

A large part of the coal produced in
Arkansas Is used for locomotive fuel.
Retrenchments by railroad companies
and competition with oil have inter-
fered with the output. The United

the production In 1915 was 1852, 100
short tons, valued at $2.950. 456. COM
