''WRAT" NEXT FEATURE
OF SEVEN DEADLY SINS

Such success have the first of
the Seven Deadly Sins been that pa
irons of the Evangeline theatre are
eagerly awaiting the news Of the
coming of more of this famous Nc
Clure series of five-act dramas.
Manager Loeb announces H. B.
Warner in Wrath" as the next of
the series. "Wharth" will be seen at
the Evangeline, Wednesday, April
18th. Wrath tells timely story of
Russian intrigue, of Russian heroes
and Russian villians-just the sort
of a play in which H. B. Warner ap-
pears at his best, a tale of love and
battle.
In WRATH" Shirley Mason and
George LIE Guere-who appear in all
of the Seven Deadly Sins-ebcome
entangled in munitions plots. Miss
Mason finds that she owns an am
munition factory that has been fur
nishing supplies to Russia. Not be-
lieving in war, she holds up the out
put which Russia needs Immediately.
Out of the efforts to make her re-
lease the ammunition, the wiles of
the Grand Duke and the honesty Of
his son, is developed an exciting
drama, crowded with human inter-
est, touches of comedy and thrills.

ARCADE ToNlcr

Robert Harron, star of the new
Triangle-Fine Arts production,
"The Bad Boy" faced situation
incidental to his work in the picture
that would have struck terror to the
heart Of the most valorous film hero.
It became Bobby's duty to be
"beaten up" bound and gagged by
a pair of thugs, against whom he
had no chance in physical en-
counter. AS most motion picture
fans know by this time, the camera
has such a sharp eye that screen
thrashing is almost as serious as the
real thing.
To make matters worse for Har-
ron, Director Chester Whitley Sc
lected as Harron's assailants Elmo
Lincoln, declared by Jess Willard
TO be one of the most physically
perfect and powerful men he ever
Jaw, and "Pete" Peters, formerly
famed as the Adonis Of the Los An
geles police department.
Bobby was seeing visions of brok-
en- ribs and bruised limbs when an
idea flashed to his rescue. "Here,
Whitney," he cried, 'let's pile some
straw on the floor, and these tough
guys can wallop me in that"
When Peters and Lincoln attack
ed him Bobby took part Of his ana
tony, but seized the first opportun-
ity to sink to the floor, where his
assailants had to be content with
pufnmeing him about in the straw.
as it was he was covered with black
and blue marks for week after the
encounter.

THE FALL OF A NATION

"The Fall of a Nation" which
will be presented for the first time
at the Arcade next Monday tells a
vital story of international signifi-
canoe. A confederation Of Europ-
can powers decided to seize North
America and annex it to Europe.
A secret army Of the foreign-born
is raised in New York. AS the
greatest city of the North American
States has few armed defenders, it
is an easy task to capture it over
night.
Meanwhile 10000 trained troops
fresh from the European wars, are
rapidly transported across the At
lantic with all of their equipment OF
great guns, poison gases, liquid fire
and bombs. Effecting a landing
they easily vanquish the small North
American army, join the foreign
born conquerors Of New York, and
march to Washington where they
depose the President and put in his
place the Imperial Viceroy of the
Provinces of North America"
While the locale Of the story is in
and near New York, its momentous
lesson applies to any country UMPIRE,
pared to meet the foreign foe. Al
the end of the present war there
will be millions of idle troops in
Europe.
What new task will be set for
them? Will covetous eyes be cast
on the riches of the continents dis
covered by Columbus? Will some
Emperor-like Napoleon 8, who
sent the French invaders into Mex
ico-attempt to seize fair and
wealthy potion of the New Hemis-
phere? Then-unless the country
attacked is ready and well prepared
history will record a real tragic
"Fall of Nation"
IT. is against this terrible danger
that Thomas Dixon, the author OF
the spectacle, provides an awful
warning.

President Wilson in his appeal to
his fellow countrymen says: 'The
supreme need Of our nation, and the
nation with, which we are coopera-
ting, is an abundance of supplies,
and especially foodstuffs. The i'm
portance Of an adequate food supply
especially for the present year is
superlative. Upon the farmers of
this country, therefore, in large
measure, rests the fate Of the war,
and the fate Of the nations"
This clarion call of the President
Of our nation must stir the patriot
ism Of every man, woman and child
Of our city. In order to make the
call effective each State of the
Union has appointed committee to
mobilize its Agricultural resources.
Mr.. Harry D. Wilson is the Chair
man of this committee for Louisi-
ana, he comes to Morgan City, Fri
day, April Goth to tell our people
how they can serve their country in
the fundamental basis Of al war
fare, "The Supply Of Food"

CELESTIAL PHENOMENA At
TRACT CONSIDERABLE
ATTENTION.

"Star-gazers' and belated night
workers who were out late Tuesday
night had the rare good fortune to
witness a wonderful sight in the
heavens. The figure of cross plain
~ outlined before the face of the
moon was watched with great inter-
est by many citizens from the time of
its discovery about nine o'clock, un-
til it faded away several hours later.
The appearance of the celestial phe-
nomenon was the cause of much spec
ulation among the spectators, all of
whom agreed upon one point, that it
was something very much out Of the
ordinary. In the afternoon previous
to this wonderful display double
rainbow spanned the skies, the lat
ter, according to an old colored man
whose attention had been called to it,
being "sure sign of peace"
About 1870 o'clock in the afternoon
as the sun approached the western
horizon it was partly obscured by
clouds, and at the same time two
'sun dogs" appeared, one to the
south of the sun, and the other to
the north. Both were some distance
from the sun, but on a direct line
with it, and had the appearance OF
being additional suns.
An explanation of the phenomena
was given by local scientist and
weather observer, who stated that
the cross was caused by the intersec-
ton of two fragmentary lunar halos,
which are composed Of frozen moist
clouds are composed of frozen moist
ure, and are in the form of octagonal
prisms. These halos are reflections
from cirrus clouds. Oldtime wealth
er prophets always looked upon halos
as warnings of bad weather or
storms, but such predictions are now
disregarded.

out Of the ordinary happen as the
fight had ragged for two days, but
the bitter feeling had quieted down
considerably. The ants anlivened the
proceedings with short speeches for
the measure. They had all the argu-
ment on their side. but the pros had
taken good care a short while ago
to see that no opportunity would be
given for long talks by wisely limit
ing speeches to five minutes. and all
they wanted was time enough to
make motions for amendments. The
result was that when Alderman was

no difference for the opponents of

enough votes to lay anything objec-

were offered, which took up time, and
that was all.
The bill was finally voted upon,
resulting in it's being defeated by a

the bill were Alderman, Bell, Booher
