Geraldine Farrar, Noted Operatic
Star in Joan the Woman" at
Princess,

What is possibly the biggest
photoplay that has been produced
to date, is the special attraction at
the Princess, for Monday the 26th
and Tuesday the 9th, in "Joan the
Woman" big stupendous spec
tahe, featuring the noted operate
star, Geraldine FarIar.
Down through the centuries the
story of Joan has been an inspira-
ton to every man, woman and child
of every generation, the selfish
modern woman finds in it q great
lesson. Joan's life was the life of
truth, and the unselfsh modern wo-
man finds in the life of Joan, an in
spiration for her daily problems.
The story is told beautifully,
wonderfully by the motion picture,
under the direction of that master
producer Cecil d. De Mile, and is
interpreted by notable stars, headed
by the foremost of all operate stars
Geraldine Farrar, who plays the
humanized Joan-plays it with a
depth of feeling and power of mi
metia expressions that are beyond
reproach, and without furnishing the
glitter of her heavenly calling or
diminishing the glory of her heroism,
we have Joan the Woman; the Joan
who has the weakness to love and
who therefore suffers doubly.
There are thousand of people in
the many massive scenes, the pro-
aucers were little over year in the
making, it will stagger you with its
magnitude.
There will be only 2 shows daily,
Matinee at $3.50 and Evening at
1880.
The admission is 25 cents to all
teachers and students Of the College
and schools and so cents to all
others.

CLAIM DISCRIMINATION
WAS EXERCISED IN
REVISING ROLLS.
VALUES RE UNFAIR
Injunction Restraining. Sheriff
From Complying With Or
der to be Sought.

Contending that advances recently
made by the board Of supervisors of
Lowndes county in the assessed valu-
ations of agricultural lands through
out the county are discriminative,
inequitable' and unjust, owners of
these lands are preparing to protest
the action Of the board in the courts,
and will ask for an injunction re-
straining the sheriff from collecting
taxes provided for in the revised as
sesSments.
Pursuant to orders issued by the
state tax commission, the lotal board
of supervisors have made an upward
revision in the assessment rolls of
the county, and property owners de-
clare that gross indiscrimination was
exercised in making this revision. In
support of this contention it is point
ed out that one plantation in the
western section of the county on
which there are located a comfort
able residence, barns, stables and
other valuable buildings is assessed
at $12 an acre, while on an adjoining
plantation which has no improve
ments and on which the land is no
more fertile than that on the neigh
boring place is assessed at $50 per
acre.
There is much dissatisfaction as
the result of the new assessments
which have been made by the board,
it being the contention of those effect
cd by that while some property worth
$50 per acre has been assessed as
low as $40 that there is other proper
ty assessed at the same value which
would not bring $15 an acre in open
market.

MEN ON U-BOAT
MADE PRISONERS
AMERICAN DESTRoYERS CAP.
TURE GERMAN SUBMARINE
IN WAR ZONE.

Washington, Nov. 24.-An entire
U-boat crew has been taken captive,
following the capture of their craft
by American destroyers operating in
the submarine war zone.
The battle with the submarine was
announced by Secretary Daniels late
this morning and positive informa-
tion that the first German naval
prisoners had been taken was Sc
cured this afternoon. The usual
German U-boat carries a Grew of at
least 30 men. 1t is possible that
some of the crew were killed in the
battle that preceded the capture of
the underwater craft.
The captives now on an American
warship represent the first conclu-
sive evidence in the shape of prison
er's of the sinking of a German sub
marine by American gunners. Ac
cordingly there was the greatest sat
isfaction in all circles here this af-
ternoon when the news arrived.
The U-boat was so badly disabled
by the shell fire turned upon he
by two the destroyers after depth
charges had been dropped, that her
commander is believed to have sur
rendered.
The entire crew of the U-boat are
believed to be prisoners of war
aboard he American ships.
The date and the location of the
encounter were not given by Secre-
tary Daniels. Here is the official de-
scriI ton Of the battle:
Messages from Admiral Sims
state that a German U-boat has been
accounted for by American destroy
ers operating in European waters.
While on patrol duty destroyer
sighted a periscope 400 yards off
Immediately ringing on full speed
ahead the commanding officer head
ed his craft TO pass a few yards
head of the submarine As the de-
stroyer passed over the U-boat's
course, depth charge was dropped.
This evidently caused damage to
the U-boat hich shortly afterward
broached about 500 yards away. Fire
Immediately was opened on the sub
'arine by two of our destroyers
which cireled about their target
"The submarine did not return
the fire and was evidently disabled
One Of the destroyers got line to
her intending to tow her but the boat
soon sank.
