BEST THEATRE.

Tomorrow-Valeska Suratt in "The Slren.' Acting in moving pictures
 has an elevating moral influence, says Valeska Suratt, star of the new Will liam Fox drama, "The Siren." Miss tSuratts announcement is based on ex- perlence, for she has appeared in two photoplays for William Fox alone. Moving pictures are still in the stage where the drama was before lbsen," says Miss Suratt. "They have the old-fashioned idea about stage morality that demands that the hero
 come off triumphant, and that virtue be victorious and crime go punished. Since modern influences set to work, the stage has partly given up these standards, but the screen still ad- heres to them. That is why the film continues to exercise moral influ- ence that the stage does not.
 of you consider my present picture, for instance, you can understand more clearly what I mean. In The
 Siren l take the part of woman beyond redemption, an adventuress without scruple. who goes through life with philosophy which makes everything serve her own ends. She is entirely selfish and she glories in her selfishness.
 "At the end of the picture, she meets the fate that she deserves. It
 is oldfashioned morality, but it is true
 on the stage under modern influences. morality. If this picture were acted
 the ending would be entirely differ ent. Cherry Willard would probably
 leave the scene at the end of the last
 act with scornful laugh on her lips, and the men whose lives she had
 ruined would be groveling in the dust.
 The philosophy of it would be all
 wrong, but it would be so-called mod
 ern thought"

By its own will it. falls back Into the position that its shape in conjunction with its mass demands. Here is wonderful force, a life, that plastic art should express, and if this life of the material is not destroyed. but Is cultivated and enriched by the artist, 1t may acquire a wonderful power of expression that will stir the world" A piece of sculpture, there. fore, should be created like a crystal physical laws should govern It's fashioning, and. the more of art there IS discoverable in the work the less the Individuality of the artist be. comes apparent.

ORPHEO THEATRE.

Monday-"The Old Fashioned Young Man" might be termed Tri- angles transcontinental drama, in that the scenes are actually laid in California, New Orleans, Atlanta, Washington, D. C.. and aboard train. It is the story of a young man reared to venerate woman in the old fash toned manner. who fights against a gang of crooked politicians to clear the name of a woman. Later this woman is discovered to be his own mother. A girls name is also be- |smirched by the scandal, and the boy is determined to vindicate it before he asks her to take his own. The drama is an indictment of scandal mongering and political grating. It is warning not only against speak ing islander, but listening to it as well. The accusations against the woman in the play could have had no malicious effect had her friends and her husband turned deaf ear to them, needing the commandment: "Judge not your fellow men," An unusually fine cast of players support Robert Harron in this great play. Harron will be remembered for his wonder full work in the Birth of Nation," and "Intolerance." With the Bon Ton Revue presenting, high class musical shows this is program that is well worth twice the price of admission.

OhiVs "Fire Cands."

The term fire lands" was applied to tract of country in northern Ohio. After the Revolutionary war when Con- necticut had ceded to the United States her undetermined land possess sions in the West, she reserved tract embracing 500,000 acres, now included In the northeastern portion os Ohio, to do as she pleased with. The land so reserved was called the Western re- serve, or Connecticut reserve. The state of Connecticut subsequently sold 1t on easy terms to certain of her citi- zens who had suffered at the hands of the British during the war. Because they had thus suffered, the lands par celed out to them were called "suf- ferers' land," and as most of the suf- ferers were made such by fires, the lands were also called fire lands" The latter designation outlived the for mer and was current in the history of Ohio for many years. The fire lands are now included in the counties of Huron and Erie.

A ONE-POUND PEACH,

Frank Schwab, 11O9 Second ave- nue, has peach tree in his yard which, to use the forcible though somewhat inelegant phraseology of the masses, "bears some peaches" He pulled a one-pound peach from the tree Friday and brought it to his brother-in-law, Ralph Robinson of Robinson & Son, undertakers.
 MT. Robinson said the tree is pretty we'll loaded with peaches of the same size, though some are a bit smaller.
 He had one on his desk, which weighed II 1-2 ounces. The peach is known as the Speed" variety. The tree yields a sufficient quantity every year for canning and preserving for two families of the average size.

It 10 not always easy to get hold of good sample of black paper for mak. Ing masks-a paper, that Is, which is absolutely opaque and free from pin. holes. The black paper that Is used on roll film cartridges is particularly suit able for the purpose. If the photogra- pher Is plate and not a film user, 1t Is still likely that he will know some one who does use fllms-cr that his dealer develops them - and either should be willing to give him a hand. ful Of what otherwise would be regard. ed as rubbish. When obtained 1t should be cut to size and put away flat, under pressure until 1t Is wanted for use.

BIG SLAB OF GOLD
 BROUGHT FROM MINE
Local People Learn Property in Which They Own Stock Is About to Re-
 smme Regular Operations.

A rough slab of metal weighing slightly more than 8 pounds, and containing nothing but solid silver and solid gold, just as it come from the shelter, was brought to Pine Bluff several days ago by M. l.. Case, well known local man, who had gone to Puebla, Mexico, to look into condi- ton prevailing about the properties there of the International Finance company, which numbers something like 16 or Is local people among it's stockholders.
 The slab of metal is not handsome, not even particularly attractive until one learns that it is worth something like $500. The gross weight, accord ing to the stamped marks of the Mexi- can assaying office, is 15.S0S kilos, of which S.5 kilos is the weight of the gold.
 Mr. Case reported that the opera tions of the companys properties had been interrupted by the conditions prevailing in Mexico, but that these conditions have materially improved and the resident manager expects to be able to resume regular operations in the immediate future The ore is blasted from big hill, and is said to be particularly rich in gold, silver and zinc.
 The slab of gold and silver has been on display at the Yauch bakery the Messrs. Yauch being stockholders In the International Finance company

PLANTERS BEGIN
 TEST 0F COTTON
 GINNING STATUTE
Application for Restraining Order Is Filed By Jeffer-
 son County Men.
CHANCERY COURT
 RECEIVES PRAYER
Leo M. Andrews and Other Prominent Cotton Growers Assert Their Gins are Private Gins and Not Em-
 braced in Recent Enactment.

Suit to test the validity of the re- gently enactedt cotton ginning law, insofar as it affects gins owned and operated by plantation owners for glnnlng of their own cotton and cot ton of their employes or tenants, was filed in the chancery court yester- day, in the form of an application by Jefferson county planters for a writ or injunction reStraining Commission CT of Agricultufe John H. Page and Prosecuting Attorney T. G. Parham from prosecuting complaints for non- compliance with the provisions of the law.
 The complainants named in the petition which was filed yesterday are Leo M. Andrews, Dent & McNeill, E. w. Wiley J. F. Quattlebaum, J, B. Talbot and William Nichol, all prominent planters of Jefferson county, and the beginning of the liti. gatlon is the outcome of the recent meetings of Jefferson county cotton growers to make thorough test of the law. It is asserted that virtually all the planters in the county who own and operate gins for their own cotton and for the the cotton of their employees or tenants, are behind the complainants in the case, and cotton planters in all sections of the state will be affected by the ruling of the court in the matter.
 In their petition, complainants re- cited the fact that the legislature at its recent session, adopted the cot ton ginning act which became a law as of March 21, 1917, providing for the licensing of all cotton gins of a public nature, requiring each bale ginned to be tagged by the gin owner and providing also that from each bale ginned two samples shall be taken by the ginner, one of which shall go to the owner of the cottons
 Compliments aver that they each own and expect to operate during the season of 1917-1S private gins; that they do not operate public gins, their gins being private gins, j'ginrling only the cotton produced and owned by himself or his tenants or labor CTS" that they are in no Sense pub lie ginners, but that said defendant John H. Page has construed said act of March 21 1917, to apply to com plainants and all others who gin only for themselves or their tenants or laborers and has threatened that un- less complainants comply with such ruling, he will cause the prosecuting attorney to prosecute compliments.
