Pleasantville For
The Normal School

From the Cape May County Times.
Pleasantville, Atlantic County, is in
the fight for the new State Normal
School to be built this year and for
which the State Board of Education
is now seeking a satisfactory site.
According to advices this week the
three towns leading are Millville,
Woodbury. and Pleasantville. The lat
ter city has offered free to the State
a cite that cost $4,000, comprising
~thirty-odd acres of the finest land in
the city, beautifully located.
Pleasantville has perhaps the best
railroad facilities of any town, outside
of Atlantic City, in South Jersey. 1t
is tapped by the steam lines of both
the Pennsylvania and Reading Rail-
roads, and has in addition the electric
service to numerous South Jersey
towns, with frequent express trains.
It's proximity to Atlantic City offers
students at the school the opportunity
to attend the many helpful lecture
courses that are given there through
out the winter, and the climatic con-
ditions are as nearly ideal as any that
obtain in this section of the country.
Aside from this, Atlantic County
pays one-third of the taxes of South
Jersey, including the municipality of
Camden. Certainly this fact, coupled
with the absence of other State insti-
tutions in the county, entities Pleas
antville to earnest consideration from
the State Board.
For Cape May County it will be
good business to get back of Pleas
antville. Transportation facilities are
exceptionally good and Atlantic Coun-
ty is essentially a county placed In a
similar position to our own, depend
ing entirely on the visitors from else
where for it's sustenance.
Every trade organization or individ-
ual that has not already done so
should, for their own interest, get
back of Pleasantville. A boost for
u neighboring county is a boost for
ourselves. And we're all good boos-
tiers.

PATHE'S LATEST SERIAL
AT STRAND THEATRE
First Instalment Will Be Shown
Wednesday, August l

Mgr. Zimmerman, who is always on
the market trying to secure the best
and latest in pictures for his patrons,
closed a contract this week with The
Pathe Film Inc. for their latest serial,
"The Fatal Ring" which features Miss
Pearl White, who made herself popu-
lar in "Perils of Pauline" and Pearl
of the Army" and this new serial is
promised to be the best she has played
in yet.
Mr.. Zimmerman was fortunate en-
ough to secure this picture ahead of
any of the Atlantic City Houses.
Following is the story of the first
two episodes:-
Pearl White returns to her own
again-her own being of course, a Sc
rial-via "The Fatal Ring"
There are stunts in it, thrills in it
and there is mystery in it; to say
nothing of a three cornered struggle,
both plotting and physical, to gain
possession of, this time, the Violet
Diamond. The fearless Pearl, swing
ing around ON chandeliers and bowl
ing over swarthy men as if they were
so many pins, behaves very muck like
a female Fairbanks. The female, in
c~identally, is much more wondrous
than the male. She, however, doesn't
fall to all the biting and banging.
There is juvenile Earle Fox who for
the time being has deserted the parlor
drama for the tackling dives and two
story jumps of "The Fatal Ring" And
then there is a fine cast of extras who
fight like the pugilists of times gone
by. And Warner GLAND, the heavy
with the plotting look, erstwhile Mexo-
Japanese of "Patria."
Fred Jackson is the author of 1.-The
Fatal Ring" He allowed his imagi-
nation free reign when he ~concocted
the first two episodes, ever to the ex-
tent of including in its scope the room
with the closing walls, trap doors and
iron shutters that bang down just as
the hero and heroine are about to es-
cape. Imagination makes the serial
and Mr.. Jackson seems to have a suffi-
cient store of it to make wen another
one. Robert Milhauser did the CONT
nuity and George B. Seitz directed.
Mr.. Seitz, having written any number
of serials, now blossoms forth in this
latter capacity and success seems to
be his again.
The first episode of "The Fatal
Ring, entitled Inc NlOleL DidlllOhu ,
is in three reels, the second. "The
Crushing Walls, is in two, as all the
remaining numbers will be.
The Story and Players.

GENERAL KORNILOFF NEW
IDOL OF ALL The RUSSIANS
Hero of Successful Offensive In
GaIicia Was Born In a
Log Cabin.

Russia Is ringing with the name of
the latest hero of the war, Lieutenant
General L. G. Korniloff, victor of Ca
lcia, whose astonishing feats first
proved that the new advance Is no
mere flash in the pan. General Kor-
niloff Is the most daring, chivalrous
and scholarly officer In the army. For
a romantic rise from humble origin
Russian history has only one parallel
that of Michel Vassilievitch Lomono-
sof. isherman's son, poet, philosopher,
creator of the modern Russian lam
guage, in the first half of the eight
eenth century.
From log cabin to general is the lit
eral text of the chronicle of General
Kornilof's career. Born f~orty-six years
ago, son Of a need stricken Karnalinsk
Cossack in western Siberia, who later
reared a large family on a pittance
gained as the village clerk, young Kor-
niloff early began rough forest work.
At the age of nine he received his first
instruction. When barely thirteen he
by his own exertions and all night
studies qualified to enter the Siberian
Cadets corps, largely composed Of sons
of local men of affairs. Thanks again
to his own efforts this indomitable ST.
berian pioneer character gained free
training at the Michailovsk Artillery
school, where his amazing mathemat-
ical faculties brought approval from
the authorities, even though he was
suspected. with reason, of being a Sc
cret revolutionary.
Next General Korniloff was an officer
in the Guards and, being penniless,
was obliged to serve in Turkestan. In
the Japanese war he received the rank
of colonel and was intrusted with a
desperate mission-that Of covering the
retreat from Mukden of one of General
Kuropatkin's shattered armies. 1t was
executed with such resolution and skill
that he received the st. George cross.
Later he travelled all through Turkes-
tan, the Caucasus and Europe, study
ing, observing and writing invaluable
books on Turkestan and the countries
of central Asia.

refuses to tell Pearl why he wants the
diamond. Pearl receives a note tell
ing her that she has fifteen days to re-
turn the diamond. If she complies
not she dies.
In the second episode, Pearl and
Knox journey to Carslake's house, be-
lieving he has the diamond in his pos
session. The priestess and her follow
ers spy on them. Pearl and Knox are
trapped in a oom by Carslake, who
then sets fire to the house. Attempt
ing to escape, they fall through a trap
door into a room with closing walls,
where the Priestess has already been
caught. Carslake fights a reporter
away who has tried to pull the lever
and save the three. When the episode,
closes the reporter has just dropped
from exhausting beside the lever,
while the walls are starting to crush
the unfortunate adventures.

Reception To The Pastor of
St. Paul's A. M. E. Church

The officers, members and friends
of ST. Paul's A. NJ. E. Church tender
ed a reception and banquet to their
pastor, Rev. C. G. Collins, and his wife

his return for the third years service
among them. G.. H. Emmery acted as
master of ceremonies, and glowing
tributes of the man and his work were
paid by officers and members of the
church, ministers from Atlantic City
and Pleasantville, representatives of
various organizations and visiting
friends. Assemblyman Whitman, in
behalf of the Municipal Republican
League, presented Rev. Collins a
purse of gold. There was a large at
tendance and the affair was thorough
ly enjoyed.

Chauffeur Is Not Wise
to Moving Picture Ways. !,

During the filming of "The Neglect
ed Wife," Pathe's big serial, the Ninth
episode of which is to be shown at the
Strand Theatre On Monday, the direc-
tor desired to take a picture of the
Merchants Exchange in Los Angeles
with all it's hustle. Roland Bottom.A
ley, the distinguished English star,
who plays with Ruth Roland in this
serial was to come out of an Office
building and become one of the crowd.
Knowing that as soon as the people
saw the camera, business would stop
at once, the director had his camera
man place the Gamers in an office
building opposite the Exchange and
make ready to shoot through the wips !
dow. Mr.. Bottomley was to take hi 4
signal to come out when they dropped
the handkerchief. 1t was all set.
At the curb, was a motor car and
chauffeur, that had nothing to do with
the picture. Mr.. Bottomley got the
signal and he and Philo Mccullough
came out of the building and after a
vehement handshake, Mr.. -Bottomley
said:
well, goodbye, old chap. Don't
forget to let me have those bonds in
the morning. Good-bye!" Another
hearty handshake and both went in
opposite directions.
The chauffeur took particular notice
of the incident, according to Mr.. Bot
tomley. However, the assistant direc-
tor informed him hat it had to be
done over again as it was not right.
The two sneaked back into the build
ing, the signal went out, and they re-
peated the handshake and mention of
the bonds. The chauffeur looked at
them as if dazed, took off his cap and
scratched his head. After they got
down the street, the assistant came
again and said they were to do it all
over again as the film had buckled.
So they sneaked back again ara went
through it all. However, this time,
the chauffeur threw three fits and fell
back in his car. {
