Beside it was the body Of Mrs. Rose

Brooklyn. Her husband, Irving, was
even then searching for her. When he

On the Screen
Alice Brady Is the Bright Spot in
"A Maid of Belgium

"A Maid Of Belgium" has visited
The Burglar" from the Park Theatre,
but it is doubtful! if she will supersede
him in the hearts of the public. Alice
Brady plays the title role, and TO give
Miss Brady her just due. she is the
only bright spot IN the picture. Her
work is sincere and at times forceful
If not convincing II is not Miss
Brady fault, either, if she is not con-
yincing. When she is left TO her own
devices she gets along extremely we'll;
for instance. in the first scene, where
she is discovered wandering m the
ruins of devastated Belgian own, no
one could have presented a more pa
thetic figure
There is something radically wrong
in Miss Brady's scenes with her doll
The fault does not seem TO be hers, and
not being a director We cannot say Just
where the fault does lie. However,
these scenes fail 20 convince, and one
realizes almost resentfully that he is
not being narrowed in the least at the
sight OF a beautiful Belgian maid
bereft Of her reason, hugg.ng 20 her
bosom doll and murmuriug My baby,
my poor little baby Probably the
faults are not those Of Interpretation,
bat of direction.
An American couple who have elected
20 take a trip through Europe are
turned back by the war. and in pass
ng through Belgium they find Adorce
wandering n the ruins of her home.
ln her arms she carries large doll,
and she clings 20 this persistently
until her own child arrives. Her bene-
factress, wishing 10 shield Adoree,
claims the child as her own. The de-
luded husband comes home from Rio
dc Janeiro, whence he has been called
lust in time 20 prevent him from be-
coming unduly curious. and is % de-
lighted with his son that his wife
resolves never 20 tell MIN the truth
Finally, the reason OF Adorec returns
and she remembers that ,he is the
wife Of q viscount, who she believes
was killed in the atta'k which dew
astated her home. Of course, this
viscount happens 10 be out at the coun-
try club collecting funds for the Red
Cross, so Adoree's story is soon veri-
fed, and Mr.. Niscouut finds himself
with a very good family on his hands.
Although each believed the other dead,
neither seems terrifcsily surprised al
the meeting in America. Perhaps il is
true that America seems such "a won
derful place to them that they are sur
prised at no good gift which is offered
in this land Of the free
There was happy ending FOR every
one save the American couple, and
sequel would probably show HI, after
the husband generously forgave her
for the deception which she had prac-
tised upon him. the wife generously
met with change OF heart.

daughter, Della GalleranL in their
home in West Springfield. was captured
to-day in a house in Feeding Hills, near
here. after a running fight with q posse
of police and civilians. THIS was after
he had killed his wife. Armeha. and had
been wounded or attempted suicide.
Gallerani. il was learned. after his

since the murders Thursday and only
this afternoon took refuge IL small
house occupied by Mrs. Gailersni's par
ents and his brother. With him was
his wife. whom he forced 70 flee with
him from the Martini home after the
murders.
lie was forced. by cold and hunger,
TO forsake the woods. So close mad
the pursuit become that a small party
of searchers reached the house in
which he took refuge not long after he
and his wife arrived there. Mrs. Cal
lerani's parents and his brother took
alarm and ran from the house when the
officers appeared, but Gallerani refused
10 leave and compelled his wife TO re-
main with him.
Chief Of Police Edward Bromage
soon arrived with force OF about
twenty, who surrounded the house.
The party opened fire on the house
with rifles, revolvers and shotguns,
riddlng the windows. while Gallerani
returned the shots, firing perhaps a
dozen times in all. None of his shots
took effect.
After a short delay the besiegers
made a rush and forced in the door.
Gallerani's wife lay dead on the floor,
with a bullet wound between the eyes.
while Gallerani was helpless from a
glancing wound in the temple. Whether
he had shot his wife when the attack
began. or only when it became evident
that he would be captured, - not
known. Galleranis wound is not Sc
rious. and he was brought 20 a hospital
here.
Mrs. Gallerani evidently was aware
of the fate that awaited her, for she
had left letter bidding goodby to her
two children, who are in a local insti-
tuition.
Gallerani is twenty-six years old and
his wife was about the same age. Ow-

rated from him and made her home
with Nr. and Mrs. Clement Martini.

AMERICANS UNABLE
TO GET PASSAGE

New York, March 15.-With hun.
dreds of Americans in Scandinavian
ports anxious to return to their native
land, the Norwegian steamship Kris
tianiafjord which arrived here today,
was obliged to sail without booking
passage for any of them. owing to the
concern felt by the owners over the
German submarine blockade. Officers
of the vessel estimated there were
I 900 Americans unable to reach home
and the Kristianiafjord turned away
500 applicants, refusing also to carry
mails. She brought general cargo
of $50 tons OF merchandise.
One American citizen arrived on the
Kristianiafjord, having boarded the
ship unseen and concealed himself un-
til the vessel was out of sight OF land.
This stowaway was William E. Cad
mus, former Baptist clergyman and
now New York exporter. When he
appeared on deck he was not disci-
plined as stowaways generally are but
enjoyed the privileges Of exclusive oc-
cupancy of the cabin and was not sent
to the Ellis Island immigration sta
ton on arrival here.
The Kristianiafjord left Christiania,
Norway, on January %.

London, March 15.--A political re
organization of the German empire
after the war, involving a greater
share Of the people in the conduct OF
imperial affairs, was predicted by
Chancellor Won Bethmann-Hollweg IN
a speech before the Prussian diet, &C
cording to a Berlin dispatch to Reu'
tiers by way of Amsterdam. The chan
cellor opened his address by protest
ing against criticism levelled at the
reichstag by the upper house OF the
diet. Admitting that every parliament
in Germany is entitled to discuss I'M
perial polices, he reiterated previous
assurances that the war must lead to
a political reorganization and the gov
ernment would, after the close of hos
tilities. propose a reform of the Prus
sian franchise.

rounded by enemies whom we shall
not meet with loud words but with the
internal strength OF the nation. We
can only pursue such a policy If the
patriotism which during the war has
developed to such marvellous reality
lis maintained and strengthened.
The chancellor went on to declare
that the maintenance Of patriotism,
could only be achieved by granting the
people in general equal cooperation ir
