Robert Fitch Shedden relative to a

that not single head will be shipped

BRANAM Gets LIFE
ON MURDER CHARGE

MACON, Ga, May lid. B. ("Doc'O
Branam, who shot and killed Miss
Rosa Lee Eubanks on the streets of
Macon, while in a drunken frenzie last
March, was found guilty of murder by
a jury in Bibb Superior court today.
Branham was Immediately sentenced
to Imprisonment for life in the Geor-
gia penitentiary, and his attorneys
gave notice of their intention to ap-
peal the case to higher court.
Eubanks was not acquainted with
his victim, who was on her way to
church when a stray shot from his
revolver pierced Miss Eubank's
breast, resulting in almost instant
death. Following the tragedy, all of
the near-beer saloons in Macon closed
their doors, and vigorous crusade
against blind tigers and the illegal
sale of whiskey was begun. The
case attracted statewide attention at
the time, and for a time it was feared
summary vengeance would be visited
upon Branham, but the excitement
soon passed away.

bodies of men ever staged for the

dents in The Payment" the power
fully dramatic Triangle play in which
Bessie Barriscale appears as star. The
encounter takes place in the early
part Of the story and depicts a bitter
and bloody fight between strikers and
strikebreakers in a small New Eng
land mill town.
Thos H. Ince's fights are famous
for their realism, but rarely has he
attempted to stage anything but bat
ties in which gunplay has had a part
Gun-play, it is true, figures to some
extent in the scenes in 1.-THE Pay
ment," but the biggest part Of the
warfare is waged with sticks and
stones and Fists.
The scenes were filmed in the town
Of Newhall, Cal, chosen because of
its quaint cottages, resembling those
of a mill-workers' hamlet, and be-
cause of the presence Of a factory
suited to the requirements of the
story. Nearly two hundred men, wo-
men and children were transported
there from Los Angeles and remained
three days during the making of the
scenes
An interesting feature Of the scenes
is the appearance therein of the Cali
fornia national guardsmen, about SO
of whom were engaged for the pro-
duction They were used to charge the
hostile strikers, and the effect is de-
clared to be unusually sensational.

WILLIAM FARNUM IN FILM

Le Clerq, q French canadian, factor
in a Hudson's Bay trading post
lie Clerq has fallen in love with
woman (Gladys Brockwel) whose
husband CWillard Louis) has seized
her and carried her away TO a lonely
life in the forests. Overcome by his
brutality, she leaves his house, and
learns that her husband has been lett
as dead by a treacherous Indian
guide. She marries lie Clerq.
But Devil Cabot is not dead. He has
been revived and nursed back to
health by prospectors. In wild mo-
ment, he shoots those who have aid
ed him and makes his escape, and
starts back to find mis- wife. He ar
rives at the trading post just after a
baby has been born TO Ardienne anu
Jules
He enters their house, binds Jules,
and seizes Ardienne. Off into the
deep woods he goes again, taking with
him his wife and her child.
For a few months, the poor girl
lives with him, in utter terror lest he
work some harm to herself or her ba-
by. Then she sees her opportunity.
She strikes Devil across the head with
heavy implement and he falls to the
floor in a heap. She thinks he is
dead, and runs out into the snow. AT
tn door she meets Jules lie Clerq,
who has been rearching frantically for
her ever since Cabot had taken her
away.
Jules takes the frail woman in his
arms and carries her back to his
house. But the excitement has been
too much for her. She dies after the
long trip, and leaves her little girl
to Jules care.
The first husband meets justice later
at the hands of LIE Clerq, when he ac-
costs the daughter in saloon. A
struggle ensues between the father

There is wonder in the wanderlust
that sets the feet to roaming
And love has met me on the road
and sweetened all the gloam-
ings-
Still, hard it is to walk so far. the
while my heart is homing
For the West-land, the best land
the land that gave me BIRTH
The wide and sunny prairie-land, the
fairest land on earth.
Oh, hills are kind and comforting,
and spicy woods are clean,
And there's familiar friendship in
the homely dales between,
But l have seen the sunflower in
dress of dusty green
The sunflower, the one flower, the
flower that gypsies wear
When they go singing down the
years with stardust in their
hair.
Oh, every road in Kansas-land is
walled about with gold,
And overhead the August sun is like
lord of old.
A-riding down to Palestine, and
staunch is he to hold
The west way, the best way, the way
that I would take
If l could scale these sullen walls
where all my lances break.
