CHICAGO, Oct. 1S.-The curtain
rose today on the fifth act of the
thrilling meller drammer, 1.-THE Catas-
trophies of Clarence"
The Tener and Johnson production
opened at Charley Comiskey's south
side opry house, direct from a two
days run in New York.
The reserved section, including
boxes, parQuet and first balcony We're
sold out Long lines of customers
were waiting at the gallery entrances.
There was every indication that the
S. r. o. sign would soon be displayed.
The present act 1t is understood is
supposed to represent Chicago, a mid
western city, time, mid winter. Set
ting was very realistic. Even the pat
rons shiyered. It was rumored that
new effect in snow scenes might be
tried out.
The story OF this new production Is
known to every one on two continents,
having received favorable press not
ices, but 1t will bear repeating.
Clarence Rowland, a poor and OBJ
scure youth Of the corn belt, falls In
love with Miss World Title. wealthy
and capricious heiress.
She is also greatly desired by Jack
McGraw, city slicker from the east.
Our hero, surrounded by friends and
aided by fortune, bests the Williams In
two contests OF skill and courage on
his native heath.
Then he follows the heartless CO.
quette to the big city. There, unused
to city ways, he falls victim to the
Villains wiles in series Of adven-
lures.
Bruised IN body and spirit, but
strong Of heart, Clarence is now back
in the old home town prepared to give
Jack the well known runs, while the
villagers cheer him on.
The principals are supported by an
unusually strong cast Kauff and
formerly comedians, have

along the railroad on a water level in

has an elevation of 1900 feet. To do
this work will require a bridge at Hood

EVERY Army BRANCH

American Heavy and Light

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent
American Field Headquarters, France,
Oct. 11.-Every branch of the Ameri-
can army is now represented in France.
Announcement is permissible today
that heavy and light artillery and some
cavalry are now preparing for fighting
service. AS yet the cavalry is detailed
as headquarters troops.
Two of the greatest football heroes
of recent years are learning under
French tuition today how best to send
a trench bomb, about the size of a foot
ball, across to the enemy. They are
from Harvard and Princeton.
The American heavy artillery experts
are training at a French "school.''
learning the operation Of howitzers,
mortars and naval guns-including the
heaviest "demolishing' types, which
are mounted on railroad trucks.
A majority of the men are coast ar
tillery corps veterans, needing but lit
tie training except in the details of
modern warfare. Their Officers include
some Plattsburg graduates and other re-
servists, some of whom obtained prac-
teal training at Fortress Monroe.
A certain percentage of all officers
and men here have been assigned to
learn wireless and also aviation.

while in Wilhelmshaven incident was
apparently IN isolated case, officials
predicted it will be the forerunner of
other internal troubles.
That men closely held in barracks or
on shipboard where they are more con-
stantly under the eyes of their Off
GERS than are enlisted men in the army,
scattered as these latter are, in dugouts,
long trenches and in pill boxes, should
have thus couspired was considered sig
nificant.
While there was a disposition here
to doubt that the German people would
split on the question of leadership, the
most responsible officials have felt all
along that President Wilson, idea was
practicable. Sooner or later they believe
the German people will awaken to the
realization that they are pawns in a
game.
Revelations of German intrigue, in
the latest developments sug-
costing sabotage in Americd, have con-
WINGED the doubters here that when the
full meaning of this world outlawry
of their autocratic rulers sink into the
people, the navy mutiny and
troubles will extend to all clas-
ses until Kaiser Wilhelm position is
made untenahle.
