Helen Hunt Jackson's
 Story, Told in Movies,
 Coming to Park Theatre

Helen Hunt Iackson's gripping story, ssRamona," :" which will be seen at the Park theatre beginning Sunday, for four days, is heralded as the ''farthest north in motion pictures.
 John s. McGroarty, probably Cali fornia's greatest living poet and his- torian and author of "The Mission Play" paid the following tribute to Ramona" after having witnessed its premiere:
 " Ramona marks the farthest north in motion pictures. Nothing has yet been done to equal it. either in America or in foreign lands. And 1t win be long and many a day be- fore anything is done to come any where near it.
 "Nr Crisp has caught not only the soul of Helen Hunt Jackson's immor- tai story. but he has caught also the soul of California itself.
 ''California and the world will see these pictures. But what pity it is that Helen Hunt Jackson cannot see them! That Is what thought as sAt in the Auditorium yesterday wit messing the first presentation. have no doubt that the same thought wal in the minds of everyone else iii the audience. And this is the greatest : tribute that Mir. Crisp could receive
 '-rhe heart-break. the tragedy. the deathless beauty--they are all there on the screen. don't know how much money 1t cost to make these pic tures. or how much money they will bring in. It doesn't matter about that. But what does matter is the fact that Ramona has been filmed and that the job was not bungied."

FIR. O'ROURKE IS HONORED GUEST
 OF HIS FRIENDS
Former Bridgeporter, Now in Priesthood, Entertained
 at the Stratfield.

Rev. William O'Rourke. formerly of Bridgeport, but for the last fou, years. attached to the Belvidere R. C. church. Belvidere, Ills, was rendered an informal dinner at The Stratfield last night by number of his friends in this city.
 Father O'Rourke has been visiting his father, John O'Rourke, former editor of the Catholic Advocate and sister, Mrs. Frank Murray, in this city, and during his stay has renewed acquaintanceship with many who par ticipated with him in his studies work and athletic sports in which he was distinguished. His father was a guest at the banquet.
 It will be recalled by many that the young priest began his career in this city as a carrier of papers and assistant to his father in the offices of the old Journal which later merg- ed into the Diocesan paper, The Catholic Transcript.
 Later he applied himself assiduous- ly to study in the Niagara University, where he made the varsity baseball and football teams. His work as a catcher attracted admiration of all the opposition 'carsity team that were played during his career at the university. At college he won many scholarships and established a repu- tatfon both as scholar and athlete.
 For short time after his ordina- ton he was assigned to Brooklyn. N. Y., later being transferred to the west where he has made a host of friends as is evidenced by the large automo- bile presented to him both by mem- bers of his own congregation and his admirers in other faiths at Belvi- dere.
 The evening at The Stratfield was pleasant one, spent amid his friends to whom he related in detail his many experiences. A short speech of welcome extended to him by Col lector James L. McGovern, followed by other similar tributes by Lynn ". Wilson, Frank Murray, Drs. William J. and Albert A. Mclaughlin and oth- CTS, were responded to in an appre- ciative vein by Father O'Rourke, whose power of humorous and effec- five speech is noted.

.FERARl SHOWS LAST OF SEASON
 IN BRIDGEPORT

Positively the last carnival or circus to be seen in Bridgeport this season somes here next week when the Col onel Ferari Trained Wild Animal Arena and United Shows will exhibit for the week on the circus lot in the West End. The shows come to Bridge port under the auspices of the Second District Republican club. Colonel Ferari was the founder of the travel ing carnival in this country and the show he founded isc now the largest and best of it's character in tho world.
 A large den Of lions, tigers. leop- ards, partners, wolves and other per- forming wild animals is one of the big features of the show. Another feature is the La Rose electric foun- tain, novel exhibition, which is shown only with the Colonel Ferari shows There are no so-called ''girl' or "orientar shows with this carnival and no gambling devices or games are allowed on the grounds. l
 The great circus lot of 1 o acres will scarcely afford room for the 50 shows and concessions which make up the carnival There are museums, freak shows, illusions, dog, pony and mon key shows and many others. Squash, one of the few surviving members of the pygmy tribe which the famous ex- plorer, Henry M. Stanley. discovered in the. wilds of the African Congo, ia one of the attractions She is the
 smallest mother in the world. The largest boa-constrictor in captivity is one of the attractions. There is a Ferris wheel, merry-go-round, whip and many other amusement devices too numerous to mention. Colonel Joseph J. Bloor has been in the city for the last week conducting the pop
 ularity contests. The Royal Military Band of Milan, Italy, will give daily concerts with the show.
 The proceeds of the carnival will beused for a new clubhouse for the club. All members will meet in the club in Gregory street, Thursday night to perfect arrangements. Because of the infantile disease now prevalent here, the big street parade which was to have been held the opening night,
 has been given up and no small chil- dren will be allowed on the show lot or admitted to the shows. This last regulation will be strictly enforced.

How and where did the expression "pork barrel' originate7
 The expression originated in congress and was first used by rural congress- men. At one time farmers butchered much pork and salted it away in bar rels. As the winter advanced and some farms ran out of pork they were invited by others to share their pork. In this way the pork barrel was some times abused by those who purposely neglected to salt away enoug gh. And in any case the pork thus acquired came easily. The congressman appar- ently saw a similarity between free pork at home and the way in which the United States treasury was raided when the appropriation bills for rivers and harbors and public buildings came

Relatives of James Burt of PA Seaview avenue. who told the police that he had been robbed of s7.50 and then thrown of pier, today repudi- ated a statement given by another relative to the police that the story was a "fake.' According to informa- ton given the detective bureau, Burt had manufactured the story. This was contradicted by relatives who as- serted he was actually trrown into the water but had not been robbed.

What force of men can Mexico put In the field7
 Under the old regime of President Diaz the army was thus composed: |: Regular troops, 30.o0O: auxiliary re- serve. 2S,C00; second auxiliary reserve, 10000. The field army at this time that is, the frst line fighting force was supposed to be 5000 infantry, 25OO0 cavalry and COCO artillery. These figures are, of course, now mere ly guides to possibilities. For several years now Mexico has been in a very disturbed condition. and 1t seems safe to say that during these years at least one-half of the adult male population has been under arms. for one govern ment or another, for longer or a shorter time. During this period also arms and artillery have been imported in very considerable quantities, 50 that probably today there are more sup plies of this character in the country than at any previous time in It's his tory. It seems probable that on a pinch Mexico could put in the field a force of from 100000 to G00,0CO men fairly equipped and with more or less experience in war. The great difficulty would be to unite the present factions of the people, but against the United States probably this difficulty would not exist, and a force of this size, fight ing on their own ground. would be something of proposition for an in vading force to handle. In 1SiG-4a Mexico appeared to have 50,cO0 troops under arms. The United States has. upward of 3op.GDO. It took two years and sorca hard lighting to get into ths capital and dictate terms.
 When was quinine first discovered Whore and when introduced intr Amsrica7
 Quininc Is obtained from the baris of the cincsoua tree. tropical pToi uct, and the virtues of the bark were known to South American Indians Ions before quinine vas introduced among whites. The, discovery of quinine as now used was made by European chemists about 1920. The name of tie bark of the tree from which it is made comes from that of the Countess of Chinchon, Spanish lady, who had tested the virtues of the bark while living in Peru and who introduced fl in Europe. Quinine as now known was not introduced in this country un- til after 1920 and for many years was very expensive.
