HOWE PICTURES.

The most remarkable pictures Of
the regions Of eternal ice and snow
ever recorded on films will be pre-
scented by Lyman II. Howe at the
Oliver theater Friday, Saturday and
Sunday. They tell the story Of Sir
Douglas Mawson's expedition TO Ant
arctia so perfectly and wildly that
spectators are held spellbound from
beginning 10 end So gripping is
this film that hundreds of patrons
have come again and again TO see
it. Every inch of it is so eXtraor-
binary and so unusual that il can
not possibly be described. Yet, for
instance, if anybody doubts the in
ability of birds and animals TO be
funnier than any human comedians,
this film conveys proof of the most
positive kind. There are few things
funnier and more appealing than
the antics Of the penguins and sea-
elephants that are shown. Every
one of them is an unconscious come
dian. All are absolutely tame and
the unaccuStOmed sight of a human
being or even the clicking camera
seems 10 fill them only with naive
curiosity. but not all with fear
simply because they are innocent of
the fear inculcated in animals in
other chimes. BY way of proving
this. when an infant sea-elephant is
awakened from "A comfortable sleep
on his bed Of ice or couch Of rock
by the persistent prodding of one
of the men, the subject at first mere
~ waves his ripper as much as to
saw. Don't bother me-" The tick
Ing process is continued and the
baby sea elephant rolls over on his
back. supported by one ripper. while
with the other he clumsily rubs his
face with a circular motion. Hav-
ing cleared his eyes of any cobwebs
which may have been there. the in
FAINT prodigy takes stock Of his sur
rOundings, his large gaze finally
resting on his tormentor or directly
on the lens Of the camera. Large.
slow tears roll down his baby face.
and he again passes his ripper be-
fore his eyes. His face then seems
TO express oh look who's here. -
and then he goes back 70 sleep.

GIRL SHOOTS HERO
THEN FALLS IN LOVE.

Constance Talmadge handles a
gun in The Girl of the Timber
Claims" at the Lasalle today, with
the same ability with which she
drove a chariot in Intolerance"
She is a typical girl of the woods
and while she doesn't get her hair
combed or her dress changed until
the last hundred feet Of the film, she
puts lots of spirit into the picture.
The story deals with timber claim
jumpers in the forests Of the Pacific
coast, and the hero, a government
timber inspector. has to be shot in
the arm before the girl can love him.
There are several battles and con-
siderable gun play, but il fits into
the scene OF the outdoors drama

BELGIUM In TWO PARTS
Germans Steadily Carrying Out Scheme
for Two Capitals.

The Hague, Netherlands, Aug. g.
Inc Germans are steadily carving ont
tnelr scheme of dividing Belgium into
TWO parts. comprising the Walloon or
French-speaking and the Flemish
provinces, respectively The past
month has seen the splitting up of
the ministry Of the interior and the
ministry of foreign affairs, leaving
only two departments not yet affected,
those of finance and of justice.
The Walloon ministries are being
transferred to Namur, the German APP
pointed capital of the French half of
Belgium, the Flemish remaining at
Brussels.
Where the Belgian officials have
refused to lend their cooperation and
obey the German instructions. and this
has occurred in the case of a number
of leading administrators, such dis
senters have been replaced by men
more pliable in German hands, often
chosen from among those who have
lent themselves to forwarding the
separation idea or have otherwise
commended themselves to the occupy
ing power.
7 According to the Taegliche Rund-
schau, each of the projected parts OF
Belgium is to have its own budget.

of an enemy. From a position sew
era1 miles astern the bombardment
took place. but none of the shots
reached a mark.
The American gunners on the tank
er fired sixteen shots in return, but
without results so far as could be
ascertained. The captain of the tank
steamer asserted that the dangerous
cargo he carried induced him to seek
safety in flight rather than to try for
conclusions at close quarters.
