Here's a Film in Which
Characters Make the Going

1t is doubtful if either the movie or
the legitimate stage has ever pro-
dueed more realistic character than
that Glen Lavender takes in villa
of the Movies" the Keystone COM
edy which shows at the Strand Tues
day, Wednesday and Thursday.
He is Villa and so lifelike is the
impersonation that photos of Caven-
der in the part and those OF Villa him
self cannot be told one from the other,
Lavender, nearly year ago, when
the picture was first planned, crossed
the United States border at Calexico
and met the bandit Villa proved
gracious and Lavender made the most
OF his opportunity.
Lavender wears are genuine, a pres
ent from Villa. who promised himself
that he would in some manner see the
picture when it was finished.
Slim Summerville, one Of the heroes
of Villa of the Movies" is consid-
+ erably over six feet tall and only an
inch or two wide. Mexicans, even the
tallcst of them, scarcely reached to
his coat pocket.
During the trip made by the villa
Of the Movies" company into Mexico,
Slim was trailed by throngs of the lit
tic yellow men, His tight pants excit-
ed their admiration and nothing
tickled them so much as to watch

Jean Sothern Well Backed
In "WhoSo Findeth a Wife,

A really capable cast is seen in sup
port of Jean Sothern, who is the star
of "Whoso Findeth a Wife," the fca-
ture at the Empress theater, Sunday
till Wednesday. The picture is an
adaptation Of the we'll known novel of
the same name, written by J. Wesley
Putnam, as an answer to Hall Gaines
famous book, "The Woman Thou
Gavest Ne" In Whose Findeth
Wife" the author takes exception to
Hall Gaines theory that woman
may "'lead her own life" regardless of
the consequences. Numerous dramatic
scenes are shown in the production
and Miss Sothern, probably one of
the most capable Of the younger ac
tresses in America, is seen to splen-
did advantage.
Leo Delaney, long a favorite with
the public for his many splendid char
acter delineations on the screen, is
seen in support OF Miss Sothern in
this production. Mr.. Delaney plays
the part of the husband in this pro-
duction, "a role that calls for an I'M
usually forceful performance, and his
work is said to be of an unusually
high order. William O'Neill plays the
, heavy part in the picture, the part of
young man, who, while cad at
heart. is still susceptible to good in
Auences. His acting, too, is said to be
: very fine. Ina Brooks and George
Henry Trader play the worldly par
ents of the girl, who force her into the
marriage with the man she does not
care for, and Kirk Brown is admira-
bic in an important character part.

George Beban Tells Why He
Writes His Own PhotopIayS

81 like to write my own photo
dramas" said George Beban, as he
sat at little table in the French
d'hote restaurant in one of the scenes
of The Bond Between" the Pallas-
Paramount production, which is to
appear at the Muse theater Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday While |
have a great deal OF respect for all
writers, still it is very hard for one
who is not French or Italian, to write
scenarios dealing with characters OF
these nationalities.
THE Latins have an entirely differ
ent way of thinking and doing; they
have little mannerisms, Little customs
that must be remembered, and must
be known to the writer so that he
can get them into the manuscript,
and. of course. they must be known
to the actor before he can present
them properly on the screen. | have
spent years in studying these char
acters and being OF Latin descent my
self, feel pretty safe in writing stor-
les around them.
Pierre Duval in The Bond Be-
tween, is not fictional character.
He nevers was associated with the
original story about which | wrote
this photodrama, however, but he still
lives IN little side street near Fourth
avenue, with his three cronies and
teaches music for living. l show

HELEN HOLMES HAS
TO KNOW HER EOADS
She Can Handle a Mogul or a
String of Boxcars Like
an Expert.
HER NEWEST FILM OUT

Runaway locomotives, burning
bridges, wrecks, explosions, blazing
trains, daring flying switches, wrong
signals, mixups in dispatching-all-
the exciting incidents OF life on the
rails-are pictured in "The Railroad
Raiders" a new photonovel featuring
Helen Holmes.
1t is a railroad picture through and
through with a lot of the rough and
ready life of the west and the liveliest
of detective fiction thrown ill.,, 1t is
a picture that would bring thrills to
old Bill Canada" the chief of de-
tectives of the Union Pacific, or to the
express messengers of the early days.
The Railroad Raiders" is fifteen
chapter motion picture serial, in the
course of production by the Signal
Film corporation near Los Angeles.
1t will be released for distribution by
the Mutual Film corporation on April
g. The picture is under the direction
of James P. MCGOWAN, who has su-
pervised all the Holmes screen sue
ceSseS,
Frank Hamilton Spearman, the
celebrated novelist, wrote the syndi-
Gated story of The Railroad Raid
ers." Mr.. Spearman, it will be re-
called, is the author OF many success
full novels, and is known to films as
the author OF "The Girl and the
Game" and Whispering Smith"
Miss Holmes, of course, does a
number of sensational things in her
accustomed sensational style-leaping
from an engine to an automobile ton
neau, and stunts OF the kind.
She knows a locomotive from the
pilot to the water tank and back
again. She can operate a inogul to
the envy Of many men who earn their
living on the seat of cab. She knows
cars as we'll as engines and she can
pretty well handle string Of freight
cars as we'll as trained brakeman.
The thrilling escapades in which
she takes part, those scenes which
send shivers up the backbone and
create tingle at the roots of the hair,
are quite matter-of-fact affairs with
her, although she goes through even
greater dangers than the screen re-
yeals.
The fifteen chapter titles are in the
nature OF an index to the swift action
of the story: "Circumstantial Evil
dence," "A Double Steal" Inside
Treachery," 1.-THE Deal in Silks" "A
Woman's Wit" "The Overland Dis
aster," "The Yellow Peril" "The Mil
lionaire's Special" THE Fight for
the Pass" "The Great Tunnel Dis
aster," "The Mystery of the Counter
felt Tickets" Total Paralysis" "The
Road Wreckers," THE Trap" and
"Hearts and Trumps."

You may not realize it, my friends,

tiers of merchants for the food and
clothing of that mans family. The
amount of a merchants license is
regulated by his purchases. Upon
investigation l have found that
those merchants who sell to the
class of men who visited the
saloons, doubled their business the
first year under prohibition laws.
That meant an increased license in
the state, and in three years time
the increased revenue from the
merchants has amounted to more
than all the revenue from the
licensed saloons.

wherever the word of God is taught
in its purity and the sacraments are
administered in accordance with the
words and institutions of Christ. The
church is religious organization
pure and simple, with distinctly spir-
itual activities. In refusing to sub
stitute any other message in its pull
pits for the exposition of the scrip
lures, our church is often maligned
and frequently misunderstood. By
this very insistence upon the preach
ing of the gospel the church is serv-
ing most faithfully not only the indi-
vidual, but the community and the
state. More devotedly than ever be-
fore is it necessary to hold high the
banner of the cross and to preach
that faith which makes men right
eous before God and blameless be-
fore men, courageous in danger and
unflinching in duty, with malace
toward none and with charity toward
all" True to its Godgiven mission,
the church teaches answering loyalty
to the government under whose juris-
diction it exists and whose protec-
ton it enjoys.
While the church does not dictate
the political faith OF its adherents,
and cannot as a church be held re-
sponsible for the particular color OF
the political creed OF its members. the
messages which go out from Lutheran
pulpits always insist upon loyalty to
country, obedience to all in authority,
and respect for the law of the land.
In every Lutheran church prayers are
offered for the president and congress
of the United States, for the governor
and for all judges and magistrates.
and 70 all judges and magistrates.
The Lutheran church can point with
pride to its history in America, where
it was planted contemporaneously
with the earliest settlements in our
land. Lutherans have always de-
Tended the Stars and Stripes. Luth-
erans have in all crises OF American
history cheerfully answered the call
to arms and many men of Lutheran
faith shed their blood i'll the battles
of the revolutionary, civil and Span
wars. And now in the
conflict into which Our country has
been drawn, Lutheran homes
the union are sending
forth brave boys, second to none in
valor and patriotism.

BERKMAN CHARGED
WITH BOMB MURDER
Grand Jury at Frisco Indicts
Leader of Anarchists in Con-
nection With Prepared
ness Day Outrage.

San Francisco, July 14.-Alexander
Berkman, anarchist, was indicted by
the county grand jury here last night
for murder in connection with bomb
explosion here last July which cost
ten lives, it became known early to-
day.
Berkman is alleged to have taken
leading part in the conspiracy
which the state charges eliminated in
the explosion
Mrs. Rena Mooney is on trial here
for one OF the bomb murders and
her husband, Thomas J. Mooney, and
Warren K. Billings are under sem
tences of death and life imprison-
ment, respectively, for murder grow
ing out of the blast.
Berkman. who is now serving a
term of two years in the federal pris-
on at Atlanta, Ga, for conspiracy TO
defeat the draft law with the aid Of
Emma Goldman, also sentenced to
two years imprisonment, published
an anarchis' paper called the Blast
in San Francisco about the time of
the explosion. Editorials from this
pamphlet were admitted as evidence
in the trials of the Moneys.

ever, and the Omaha grain dealers
and millers are alive to the import
ance of keeping busy in presenting
Omahas claim.
The grain-growing belt is being
divided into great zones; and certain
central markets will be specified for
the territory within given zones.
Omaha hopes to get all OF Nebraska,
the north half OF Colorado. all OF
Wyoming, most of Montana, the
north half of Idaho, the southern half
of South Dakota, and all OF Wash
ington and Oregon.
A certain ambitious faction in the
Omaha Grain exchange also hopes to
get a part of northern Kansas as
signed to the Omaha zone, Here
they will encounter bitter fight with
Kansas City.
Rates Favor Kansas City.
The Burlington, the Rock Island
and the Union Pacific roads entering
Omaha, are lines that tap the grain
belt OF northern Kansas. The rates
on these roads from Kansas favor
Kansas City in the shipment Of grain
Il is understood that Omaha will ask
| to have these rates put on a parity
and will then ask to have this north
ern Kansas strip assigned to the
Omaha zone.
Omaha will make the claim that
since Kansas. City has rate advant-
age over Omaha in competing for
grain in the southern part of Me-
braska, Omaha should be given the
same advantage in northern Kansas,
especially since the railway facilities
tapping that belt and reaching Omaha
are excellest. snd the distance is
about equal.
The Kansas Milling association has
not been asleep on the job. The as
sociation has made the plea to the
railroads that the wheat crop Is short
this year, and that Kansas is not rais-
ing enough wheat to supply even its
own mills, therefore, all Kansas
wheat should be allowed to flow into
Kansas City and other Kansas mill
ing points.

LOWE DAMAGE suit
SETTLED BY HATTERS
Union Men Pay Manufacturing
Firm on Judgment Re-
turned Growing Out
Of Boycott.

Danbury, Conn, July l4.-An
agreement for a settlement of the
judgment of $4,000 and costs in the
case of D. E. Loewe & Co. against
members of the United Hatters of
North America was announced this
afternoon. r
The amount paid by the union was
not officially stated, but it is learned
that the settlement was for approx
mately two-thirds of the amount of
the judgment. .-
The case had its inception in boy
cott of the product of the Loewc
factory after the firm refused to make
their shop closed one, at the time
in 1902, when organized labor was
trying to unionize ali factories in Dan
bury.
Litigation was almost continuous
until recently; when final judgment
was secured by the firm and it moved
in the United States to recover judg-
ment
