AT THE MAJESTIC.

Keeping William Farnum, who ap-
pears tomorrow night at the Majestic,
in a remarkable William Fox photo
play, Battle of Hearts," fed is some
job, especially when the scenes are be-
ing filmed on the Santa Cruz island
some forty miles from the California
mainland. There are few inha bitants
on the island and no hotels of any
kind. 1t is because Of the rugged
grandeur of the scenery that the is
lands were chosen by Director Oscar
APPEL for the sea life photodrama. Mr..
Farnum is an epicure and good food
is as much a necessity of his highly
trained palate as arnica and bandages
after his famous screen battles.

TERMS OF PEACE
10 STOP WAR IN PERRY
County Seat Faction Proposes that
Each Side Have Representation in
Special Election Next March.

Bigelow, Dec. 22.-Terms of peace
were submitted by the Bigelow fac
ton to the Perryville faction in Per-
ry county yesterday, the gist of which
Is that at the county seat election to
be held March 5, 1917, each faction
have a representative at each poll
ing place with the right to object to
any voter whom he believes to be
disqualified. The peace terms fol-
low in full:
sc. B. Colvin, John S. Harris, J. H.
Bowen, John L. Hill, w. F. Pitts, f.
f. Rankin, and Others Represen-
ing Perryville
Gentlemen: lnasmuch as gross
frauds have been charged against
both sides in past county seat cleo
tions, as we'll as others which have
been held in this county; and as we
have already heard rumors that the
county seat election called for March
5, 1917, will be conducted unfairly by
both sides: As means of refuting
such rumors, and also of securing a
fair and honest expression of the will
of the people in regard to a removal
we beg to submit the following prop
ositions:
81. Each side may have the privi-
iege of sending representative to
each polling place, who shall have
free access to said polling place and
the right to challenge any voter
whom he may believe to be disquali-
fled, the election judges, of course, to
be the final arbiters of the qualifica-
tons of said voters, the representa-
tive, however, to have the right to
note his exceptions for the purpose of
making investigation of the legality
of such votes.
90. As soon as the polls are clos
ed the vote shall be counted in the
presence of said representative. who
shall have the same right to inspect
the ballots as the Judges, without,
however the right to pass upon their
legality
90 The correct returns shall be
given to the public Immediately after
the counting is finished
Il If either side finds it neces-
sary to send a legal voter into an
other township as its representative,
his vote may be cast by proxy. or
he may vote in the township in which
he is on duty, as may be hereafter
agreed upon.

rarifed and somewhat Hrepocterous
French atmosphere. A certain first

notice that one Of the Frenehmen re-
marked that he wouldn't give "tup-
pence" for something or other. We
admit that the play held our interest
so closely that the Parisians m ght

Guilty whatsoever in proving that the
rather carelessly indicated atmosphere
Of "The Intruder" helps his play. He
has rapidly moving and interesting

in terms Of the theatre. Anybody

The story has TO occur somewhere
70 why not Paris? But. having estab-
lished the location, Mr. Harcourt takes
pains 10 make you forget that his tri-
angle story happens anywhere in par
ocular. The Rue dc la PAX is not
painted on the backdrop, and there is
no opening scene in which the house
maid and the butler speak French rap
idly in order to get you in the proper
mood. In fact, Frank Kemble Cooper, q
French magistrate, is allowed, II not
positively encouraged, to speak Of me

Pettiness and foolishness we cannot

THE TRIBUNE's review OF ARMS
L and the Girl" failed to give
credit TO man who certainly de-
serves praise. No play this season
has been staged with better judg-
nent. Paul Dickey directed the re-
hcarssls. In criticising the play IL
was difficult TO single out members OF
the company for particular praise
since so much OF the acting efficiency
de, ended on good team work. Gym
Scott and Fay Banter IN particu-
Ian played into each others hand with
a skill which was delightful.
THIS may be the best OF all pos
