IN THE MOVIE WORLD.

THE Wishing Ring" drew a crowd
ed house at the Orpheum last Thurs
day evening. The drama, fairy story,
was given by the ST. Agnes Guild la
dies and they feel deeply appreciative
Of the patronage accorded them. The
picture was excellent. The proceeds
amounting to $40 will be devoted to a
fund for new church organ.
Carter DeHaven appeared at the
Grand in very amusing comedy on
the same night. The picture jumped
from an American prize ring to a
mythical European principally, and
the festive Carter was sadly beaten
up in both cases. In other words
Carter was knocked out in the ring
and dreamed he went to Europe to
while he was getting the count"
Carter is an old music hall star and
as funny as they make 'em.
""The Little Girl Next Door" played
to fair house at Hatch's Saturday
night. The film work here was excel
lent and the theme an interesting one.
This picture, Of course, is not intended
for children or the evil or feeble-mind-
ed. To others it present an ugly
phase Of city life most happily for the
greater part passed by.
The Offering at Hatch's this week is
a stock company playing various
dramas.

SOME HEADLINE.

A reader of the Herald sends the
following story:
A girl and her beau desired to get
married, but the girls parents object
ed and the opposition rose to such a
pitch the father and the mother locked
the girl in their room, with no suit
able clothing in which to be seen. The
opportunity was at hand. She dressed
in her fathers clothes, jumped from
the window and eloped. The next day
the paper came out with the headline,
"Flees in Fathers Trousers"

Expert Says Type Surpasses All Others
for Submersibles.

Following the recent explosion on board
Q. S. submarine E-2. Thomas A, Edison.
whose corporation manufactured the stor-
age batteries in use in the craft. sent
Lamar Lyndon, consulting engineer, OF
New York. to investigate ana report on
conditions. The report. which has Just
been submitted to Secretary of the Navy
Daniels, contains a complete approval of
the Edison battery as the most desira BILE
for use in submersible ships
According to Engineer Lyndon the ad-
vantages OF the Edison battery outweigh
eight to one its defects. He states that
its principal advantage for undersea use,
however. is the safety Of the personnel
of the ship from gassing by chlorine
The engineer says: The E-2 explosion
was caused by a prolonged reversal Of the
Edison cells" and concludes, but in
spite OF this fact there is no danger to
be apprehended from the production of
explosive gases in Edison cells under
operating conditions whether normal or
unusual. The unusual circumstances
which produced this, explosion, and the
impossibility OF another similar occur
renee, in practice, is clearly Indicated"

that the State Department would take
no action regarding the raid.

CANADIANS BATTLING
AGAINST GERMAN BUGS
Fighting Whits Pine Blister. Imported
from Teutonic Lands. -

Canada today is battling against two
German armies-one entrenched on the
plains of France and the other entrench-
ed in the rich pine forests of the Domin-
ion.
For the one war 4O0, 900 men-out of a
population of about 5000, 900 loyal Cana
dians-have volunteered, and most of
them are in the battle lines today. For
the other war-a battle against the in
sidious pine blister, which spread from
Germany several years ago and today Is
imperiling 200 of the Canadian
white pine-the Canadian forest service
is using all its reserves.
Clyde Leavitt, who served in the Unit
ed States Forestry Service and is now
connected with the Canadian forestry
service, described the war against the
German pine blister before the forestry
convention at the Willard yesterday
In the afternoon the association ap-
proved a resolution urging the Federal
horticultural board to declare an en-
barge against all foreign imports of
nursery stock. /

ship CONTROL CASE
| REOPENED BY |. c. c.
Law Against Railroad Ownership ol
Water Lines May Be Repealed.

The Interstate Commerce Commission
late yesterday ordered reopened the en-
tire case In which the commission pre-
vtously had ordered the Pennsylvania
Railroad and other lines to divest them
selves OF the steamship lines they oper-
ated In Chesapeake Bay and its tribu-
taries ThUaction was taken on petition
of Baltimore business interests which
suffered from the suspension of trans
portation facilities due to the order of
the commission OF about a year ago d.
vorcing the rail and water lines. Joint
ownership where there is competition IL
In violation of the Panama Canal act
The action Of the commission in re-
opening the case has national sienif-
cance inasmuch as reversal of the Chesa-
peake Bay decision would invite the sup
position that similar action would be
taken as to the steamship lines on the
Great Lakes which were separated from
their railroad owners. The case OF the
steamship lines plying New England
waters under the flag OF the New York.
New Haven and Hartford Railroad now
is pending before the commission and
New England business interests have
urged the commission to permit continued
joint operation.
The commission has before Congress a
suggestion that the Panama Canal act
be amended so as to operate less harshly
In suspending water service when that
service is controlled by railroads. Should
amendatory legislation be enacted IT is
predicted that the commission would re-
verse its former decision and restore sew
eral boat lines in various parts of the
country to their former railroad owners.

ACTIVITY Of RAIDERS
IMPERILS PEACE MOVE
German Commerce Destroyers May
Embroil This Country.

Renewed naval activity by the Teutonic
allies was accepted in Washington last
night as another setback for President
Wilson's peace move. The constant danger
OF the United States becoming Involved in
diplomatic difficulties through a resump-
ton OF submarine warfare and a revival
OF the armed merchantman controversy,
may bring peace negotiations 10 a stand
still, temporarily at least. it is said.
While the German Embassy here is en-
phatic In its declaration that there is
10 be no campaign of "frightfulness" at
this time, administration circles are some
what alarmed by advices from abroad.
It was indicated that Germany. convinced
that peace efforts have failed, can now be
expected to attempt a complete submarine
blockade of the British Isles.
Germany, 1t is understood, has so armed
her submarines that they will be able to
comply with the law of visit and search y
in stopping merchantmen. If this can be
done, complications with, this country
over the sinking of merchant vessels
without warning can be avoided, but
Diplomatic Washington was dubious last
night over the possibility Of Germany s
conducting a real submarine blockade
without running counter to the rules laid
down In previous diplomatic correspond
ence.
