EXPOSITION TURNED
NTO A WORKSHOP

Paris.-The new French un-
dersecretary of munitions, M.
Loucheur, transformed the Ly-
ons exposition, which the war
interrupted, into a vast work
shop. Needing machinery, which
was excessively dear and scarce
~ to be had, he asked a manu-
facturer what he thought his
works worth. 4.
The manufacturer replied that
his works were f%ourishing and
while previously worth $4,000,
were now worth 100000. M.
Loucheur Immediately wrote him
a check for 100000. The trans
action may not surprise the Unit
ed States, but it was most I'M
usual here.

Farnum ct the OrpheWM1.

Once upon a time there was a real dance hall girl who appreciat- ed man who resented an insult upon her. She shows up with William F'arnum in "The Man From Bitter Roots," which was at the Orpheum last night. And she goes some and goes when the go- ing is good and timely There is also Chinese character who gets in his licks when the licking is needed and a fat character who is always thinking of something to eat or drink just when the action is intense. or course Farnum is the big part of the five reels. and being miner, and man whom others are trying to put it over, he has role that appeals and even in his fights, of which there are several, he keeps the audience sit ting on the front part of the seats. This play is on again tonight.

A great many persons went to the Coliseum last night to see A. A. (Scotty) Allan and his famous Nome, on the beach, aboard the steamer and at Seattle. Allan, if he was in the house, should have felt complimented, for when he appeared on the screen with Baldy, liberal applause was given.

There is sorry little drama in this romance-an un- faithful wife and her destiny-but one don't think of that in recalling the romance. You'll see Rain bows End and it's aged guests. You'll see Gods Half Acre" and it's orphans. You'll see Mabel Tali- aferro as the Little Mother" of all of these. Metro has produced an expressing photoplay in Gods Half Acre. They have turned to scorn the ranks of the supers that usually fill on photoplays and have utilized, in their stead,- dear old people and lovable little children. Cleverly has Metro handled a theme which might have been depressingly morbid-always keep ing uppermost the spirit of Rain bows End and Gods Half Acre" so as to shadow the tragedies of the home of Henry Norman Miss Taliaferro, lovely as her face is at all times, seems a bit artificial in her characterization. But she works earnestly to typify the "old young little woman,, the Cinderella of the old folks home. The story runs smoothly and consecutively. Artfully the observer is kept puzz- led as to the outcome of the situ- ations until the end. This play and "Scotty" and his dogs will be on tonight and tomorrow.

EMPIRES SPORTING DOPE

before they enter the ring, then giving crass exhibitions that would disgrace third rater, his actions are a treat
 Herman's claim on the title may be questionable, the flock of chal- lengers large and classy, and his own ability mooted question, but his stand regarding the game is to be commended He says that he is ready to meet them all, and he makes no bones as to which he will take on first. He will fight as often as he can get matches, and he proposes to do it in ham mer and tongs fashion, so that the Doubling Thomases may come to believe that he is real cham pion
 And-he hasn't mentioned the subject of money or demanded huge purses before he will discuss match eS.
 Johnny (Eewpie) Ertle, the St. Paul bantam, who has claimed the title because he won on foul from Kid Williams last year. prob ably will be Herman's first oppo- nent. Tom Andrews, the Milwau- ,kee promoter, has opened negotia- tionsN which bid fair to be success ful. ''-e ,--..-e,
 Kid Williams, from whom Her man got the. title on a teGeree' $ decision that was not generally aSe- isfactory. is starting out all over to mop up in the division and get another try at the crown. He start ed out with decision over Benny McNeil in Kansas City. Williams is credited with displaying all his old-time ferocity, and showed no signs of having gone back or of having suffered mentally over the fact that he was deposed.

"The Black List" 0t the DreQna.

"The Black List" comes to an end long before one expects it to, which means not that it is shorter than usual but that it is so in teresting that it smothers conscious ness of passing time, which in turn means that it is q good story, well told, without padding. Even if one may not agree with it thoroughly in logic anu pick flaws, there is no lessening in the ab- sorbed attention commanded by it. That was the writer's impression of the play, with Blanche Sweet as the star, seen at the Dream yesterday.
 Inspired by the Colorado mining troubles of several years ago, Will- jam c. de Mile and Marion Fair fax, wrote the story which dwells mainly upon the blacklist system that shuts off new employment to discharged miners. The tale is strong in it's vivid and cklosely knit situations, it's continuous forceful action, anG it's strongly defined characters. it is weak in making so many incidents turn ing upon the individuality of a pretty girl, the events being. the guards attempt on the street to kiss her, and the whole situation of the repulsion involving the miner; and the company's president falling in love with crude little rslne girls. Fiction and screen plays, however of course, is justi- fication for the situation. Every character is we'll drawn, besides Miss Sweet, Charles Clary Ernest Joy and William Elmer, being ex- ceptionally strong.
 Manager Thompson is inaugurat- ing a new run this week and The Blacklist" on account of it's being big feature will be given tonight and also tomorrow night.
