On the Italian Battlefront.

On the italian Battlefront.
Eight reels are required to depict
the scouting, fighting and hospital
relief work high in the Alps. The
scenic background of SHOWS and
amazing attitudes is the most pic
turesque shown in any Of the mo-
ton pictures that have come from
Europe since the beginning Of the
war.
One of the most surprising Incl
dents shown was that in which the
wounded were let down from noun
tain heights in cots by means Of rope
tackles with such gentleness as not
to disturb the sufferers. Another
vivid scene was that of line of
trenches and Notifications under fire
with the glow OF bursting shells.
The picture was shown at the
Orpheum this afternoon. and will be
displayed on Tuesday afternoon and
evening.
"PoIlyanna."
Messrs. Klaw, and Erlander and
George c. Tyler have recently engag-
ed Miss Helen Hayes, the youngest
and one of the most talent
ed leading ladies upon the
American stage, to play the
"Pollyanna" company, that goes to
the Pacific coast for an initial tour
of that country. The period OF ac-
tivity of the character Of Pollyanna
in the play is supposed to be be-
tween her twelfth and seventeenth
years. Miss Hayes is just seventeen
and is the ideal physically and men
tally for the part. For one so young
she has had a great deal of stage ex-
perience.
Her home is in Washington, d. c.,
and it was in 1910, when she was ten
years old, that Lew Fields saw her in
an amateur performance at the Be-
lasco Theatre in that city. He was
so impressed by her acting that he
sought her mother, and forthwith en-
gagged the talented little miss for one
Of his big attractions. She remained
with the Field show for three years,
appearing at the Herald Square
Theatre, and at the Broadway Thea
tire, New York, in long runs, and
made a reputation as a most remark
able child actress, that has become
nationwide.
Klaw and Erlander and George c
Tyler have Miss Hayes under a long
time contract.
Miss Hayes will be seen for the
nTSJ LlIlG III IIllS city OA h0A SOSAJ .

In Old Kentucky.
In Old Kentucky. which will APP
pear at the Orpheum theater on Oc-
tober s and 8, is repeating its
triumph of twenty years ago. A per-
Torrance of In Old Kentucky is al
ways enjoyable for the play is given
as it only can be given where ample
room allows for the race scene and
for many other spectacular effects.
Theatrical fashions have changed
since the original production of Ken
lucky, but the interest in the melo-
dramatic story is still keen, and the
features, including the swing across
the chasm, the horse race and the
pickaninnies' pranks, still delight the
theatergoers.

At the Princess.

OF Enlighten Thy Daughter, at the
Princess today and Tuesday, The
Minneapolis Tribune said: "a num-
Der Of motion pictures exhibited in
Minneapolis have been advertised as
"A picture that every father, mother
and child should see.' 1 Viewed them
all out of curiosity to discover just
what sort of a picture is intended
for the upIift of an entire household.
The only one Of the lot thus adver-
tised that is really worth the line
used so much by the press agents is
Enlighten Thy Daughter. While I
question whether any great good
ever will result from the moral Of
a single motion picture, do believe
that it will be we'll worth the time
of anyone over IS years of age to
see En1ighten Thy Daughter. The
picture win set one thinking. It is
not a production for young children"

tan production of Potash and PERL
mutter in Society,"" noteworthy and
more than ordinarily successful Sc
quel to Potash and Perlmutter," the
hit of yesteryear comes to the Or
pheum, Wednesday, Oct. 8, local
theatregoers will see for the first
time a new series of incidents and
comedy situations concerning the adj
ventures of Abe Potash and Mawruss
Perlmutter, skillfully devised by
those master writer's, Montague Glass
and Roi Cooper Megrue.
The unusual success scored by the
new comedy during it's years run at
the Lyric Theatre, New York, has
again drawn attention to this duo OF
unique characters of Abe and Nav
russ on the modern stage and to their
origin and authorship. Never before
in the history of the contemporary
stage has a producer been venture
some enough to offer a sequel to a
play that has been a success by in

characters. The popularity of pot
ash and Perlmutter in Society" ri
valling that of it's famous predeces-
sor, not only pays tribute to Mr..
Woods daring and farsightedness as
a producer, But demonstrates again
the permanent hold which the low
able characters of the cloak and suit
trade have taken on the affections of
playgoing public.

Revenue Bill.

Washington, May 17.-Representa-
tive Kitchin has announced that the
ways and means committee did not
attempt to bring the total of the war
revenue bill up to two billion two
hundred and forty-five million. the
amount which Secretary McAdoo in
formed the house was necessary to
meet half the expense of the first
year of the war. Kitchin said the
total of the measure will probably ex-
coed one billion, eight hundred mll
lion. If there is shortage it will
be made up later in another bill.
Increases of twenty-five percent on
all proposed surtaxes between forty
thousand and one million, and forty
five percent. on surtax on incomes in
excess of one million, were included
by the house committee OF the whole
in a schedule of the war reveIue bill,
by a vote of 146 tn 1O7.

is to be regretted that its use is not
more general in the north. John

LEGISLATURE Is HELD
Tallahassee Bureau,
Pensacola Journal.

Tallahassee, May 17.-As a bur-
lesque on the senate and house, the
third house of the Florida legislature
met in biennial session tonight, and
proceeded to the transaction of bust
ness. The event was of as much i'm
portance as in former years, and the
hall of the house of representatives
was crowded to capacity. In expla-
nation, it might be said that the third
house is composed of all the at
taches of the house and senate. and
one night during each session is set
apart for its business. On that night
the senators and representatives are
elected to the positions Of clerks and
attaches, while the attaches sit in the
desks of the solons, and run the state.
The legislature is frequently abol-
ished, the governor impeached, and
the state generally benefited by the
rei~r of nonsense.

LOCALLY BUILT SHIP
IS GIVEN TRIAL SPIN

With her builder, F. F. Bingham
at the wheel, and Haakon Paulsen
acting first officer, the Danish motor
schooner "Stjarnan" was given a
trial run of four hours yesterday
afternoon. The engines ran smoothly
and the latter part of the run was
at the rate of six miles per hour. No
hot bearings developed with the eng
ines running within ten percent Of
the manufacturers rated speed.
Captain Sigrudssen and his crew,
mostly Danes, were on board also
during the trial run, and were Of
course much interested in the ships
performance. The agent from the
machinery company, G. L. Gustafson,
was in charge of the engines, and has
been engaged by the ships future
owners to accompany the vessel to
Port Arthur, Texas, where a cargo
of oil will be loaded for Iceland.

the sooner the public gets over the

for all of US. We want to stop all
unnecessary work and unnecessary
expenditures, and concentrate on the
immense volume of work which has

"a trial of cornbread by the citi-
Eens of the east and north would, I
am satisfied, cause them to adopt it.

singular thing is that roasting ears

Important Position Com
pletely Taken After
Severe Fighting.
FRENCH REPORT
MANY SUCCESSES
Italians Hammer Austrians,
Taking Four Thousand
Prisoners.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS


Bullecourt, the scene of severe
fighting, is again completely in the
hands of the British.
French announce they repulsed
German attacks, and Italians an
nounced they repulsed Austrian coun-
ter attacks.
TIE Italians also captured a total
of four thousand prisoners.
The Germans have piled high their
dead before the British lines, but
have failed to stop the British adj
vance. The most furious and sus-
tanned counter attacks have withered
before the blast of the British artiI-
lery and the sapping of the linden
burg line goes on, slowly but without
halt.
The tremendous efforts made by
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg to
stem the tide of victory which was
steadily setting against him have
given the battle of Arras an appear
ance of ebb and flow but the net re-
suit is that the most violent efforts
of the Germans to regain the initia-
tive have failed. Won Hindenburg
apparently used every ounce of
strength at his command to wrest
from the British the villages Of
RoeuX and Bullecourt ana the out
come is summed up in the almost mo-
notonous repetition by the British
war office of the statement:
"Our troops made progress in the
Hindenburg line"
Possibly more ominous for Berlin,
in view of the wabblv condition of
her Austrian allv is the news of the
great blow struck by Italy in the
direction of Triest. The Italians have
opened their spring offensive in bril-
liant fashion, attacking on a wider
front and apparently with greater
forces than at any otner previous
operation. The Izonso, a turbulent
mountain stream bordered by noun
tains and cliffs, is in their hands for
a distance of Is to 20 miles north of
Gorilla. Several Cadorna appears to
plan a great fianking movement
against the Corso plateau, nature
great rampant defending Triest. The
operation is, however, in too early a
stage to permit judgment of its ex-
act import.
The allied offensive in Macedonia
continues with considerable success
for the British forces, but the fight
ing is on such an extended front anC
so sporadic in character that it's
meaning is obscured. Reports from,
Bulgaria of nationwide discomfort
and weariness of the war may be
significant in connection with Genera
SarraiPs campaign.
The Russian factions have patched
mp a truce but the outcome is still
dubious. The news of the resigna
ton of Generals Gurko and Brussilof
is now supplemented by a disuuietIns
rumor that GeSeral Alexieff, RuSsiat
commander in chief and generally
credited as her most brilliant strateg
list, is also about to resign his office
In any event it seems certain tina
little can be expected from Russia il
a military way for a long time t,
come.
