COMEDY FILM TRIES
 T0 BE 4 THRILLER

The theory of Nicholas Power, the inventor of the Power modern picture reel booth, that it is absolutely safe, was given it's first practical demon- stration at the Hip last night There may have been tests of it before, but so far as known, never before was 1t given an actual test by accident. A 1000-foot comedy reel broke, and
 one end of it was thrown around into contact with the lamp. Instantly the flame shot through the opening into the steel magazine when the heat in stantly melted the soft metal support
 of a shutter which fell, sealing the
 magazine with the fire inside. The operator turned a Pyrene extinguisher upon the steel box, but that had noth7 ing to do with the extinguishing of the fire. It was all over in q second
 There was crowd in the theater at the time. and the first flash of flame that shot into the magazine before it was sealed filled the house with smoke. The audience filed out in good order and stood outside until it was assured that there was nc longer fire when all went back except
 three or four. including one woman
 who showed signs of mysteries. I'll never go to a picture show again." said she. I've been going t, them for years and have always beer
 on pins and needles, expecting some
 thing like this.''
 Someone turned in a fire alarm but before the department arrived the reel had been consumed and il
 was all over.

FREES MAN ID DIE
 OUTSIDE IF PRISON

w. w. Kermeen, lately under sen tence of death at the state prison for murder has been paroled and will arrive in the city today where he will be joined by his mother. She will take him to her home at Las Vegas, Nev. She believes that a month later the climate there will be too rigorous for him, and she thinks she will return to Phoenix with him for the winter But it is doubtful whether he will survive d month.
 Governor Campbell granted the pa role after visiting the prison and hav- ing q special examination of kermeen made by the prison physician. The physician said that Kermeen would un- doubtedly die in a short time if kept in the prison, and he did not believe that he would survive long anywhere. The parole is conditional, for Kermeen, in the event of the restoration of his health by a miracle will be returned to the prison. Kermeen was not very keen for the parole; he said he was doing very well in the prison, and but for his mother, he would end his days there.
 He was sent to prison under a death sentence, notwithstanding all the eff forts made in his behalf, resulting at last in the communication of the sentence to life imprisonment. It was there that he contracted tuberculosis. He was in perfect physical condition at the time of his entrance, his weight of 1S5 pounds being a fitting weight for a man of nearly six feet He was put to work in the prison laundry and 1t is

TEMPORARY PAROLE GRANTED R. H. FUQUA
 ID CARE BUSINESS

R. H. Fuqua, serving a sentence of eighteen months in the county jail for the violation of the prohibition amend ment, was given a parole for sixty days yesterday by Governor Campbell. F'uqua also was sentenced to the pay ment of a fine of $500. It was repre- scented by the friends of Fuqua to the government that he is the owner of a large ranch and orange grove northeast of the city and that his property was suffering of neglect; that if great loss and damage were to be averted, he should be allowed at least a temporary freedom to put things in order.
 An investigation was made and it was found that the property was in a rather run down condition and it was decided to grant the temporary parole. Al the expiration of sixty days he is to report to the sheriff and resume the serving of his sentence
 His friends were not quite satisfied ; they urged that if at the end of sixty days Fuqua was still behaving himself he ought to be allowed his freedom. But to the governor that would not constitute an execution of the sen tence imposed by the court, and he de- cided that it would be a temporary pa role or none
 Fuqua was convicted of having inn ported an automobile load of liquor into l the state It was contended in his de- fense that he had brought it in for per i sonal use at a time when such impor- 1 tations were permissible. But the l evidence in the case showed that that was only one of three loads brought in | by Fuqua within a comparatively briei 1 period. The evidence further disclosed 1 that a part of at least one shipment
 was turned over to a man known to bs
 engaged in bootlegging.

The back of her legs came in contact with the tub and she toppled over backwards into the scalding fluid. Her head was practically submerged when he mother grabbing at her cloth : ing pulled her from her perilous posi- tion.
 Dr. w. C. Ellis was hurriedly sum- moned and did everything within his power to make the little one comfort able. Reports last evening were that 1 the child was in a critical condition.

Favors Compromise Plan.

During the discussion Representative
Mondell announced himself in favor of
a combination Of the Senate and House
plans, whereby there would be a Is per
cent raise for the employees at $3.50 and
under, 10 per cent for those between
S4se and $1,000 and 5 per cent for those
between $1,000 and S1,S00.
In the debate yesterday Representa-
tive Good of Iowa said in one office
alone. where there are 700 clerks the
Smoot amendments would benefit only
forty -four persons, while the House
plan would benefit 1S5 heads of fami
lies. He quoted the bureau of eff
cheney as saying that street railways
pay more for labor than does the gov
eminent in the city of Washington, and
named a department store that paid
greater wages for clerk hire than does
the government.
Representative Page of North Caro-
lima told the House that the sum in
volved in the House plan is 100000, 600,
and in the Senate plan - the Smoot
amendments $14,000,000: that while
he would be glad to save the govern
ment the extra expense, he believed the
right plan to be to allow the House an
opportunity to express itself And this
was done, as has been stated, by four
to-one vote in favor of the and 10 per
cent raise.

HOUSE IS TO INSIST
|. ON|TSSALARY PLAN
Conferees Will Be Firm in Their
Opposition to the Smoot
Amendment.
VOTE YESTERDAY A TEST

| The action of the House yesterday on
| insisting upon the IS and 10 per cent
horizontal raise for government clerks
means that the conferees representing
the House in all of the five appropria-
ton bills involving salaries will not
accept the Smoot amendments provid
ing for Is per cent raises for clerks up
to the $3.50 grade and 10 per cent from
the $3.50 grade to the $1,000 class.
1t was learned today that a meeting
of the various House conferees was
held few days ago at the suggestion
of Representative Page of North Caro-
lima, and that it was planned to test
out the feeling of the House on the In
dian appropriation bill. This was done
yesterday after two roll call votes
one on motion to concur in the Smoot
amendment and the other on mo-
ton to stick to the and 10 per cent
raise.
The greatest confidence is today eX-
pressed in the belief the House Will not
yield to the Senate. inaSmuch as the
vote on Representative Goods motion
to stand by the and 10 per cent pan
was PSI 70 50. Inasmuch as the clerks
salary increases are now all practically
in the hands of conferees, the various
members of the appropriations commit
tee who have been appointed to con-
ferences on the part of the House are
enabled to show the Senate conference
committees that the House has in
structed its members to stand by the
and 10 per cent raise, and that the
sentiment is four to one against the
Senate plan.

Many stories of sacrifice were told tr
the reports made last night by the
thirty teams of workers of St. Aloysius
Church in the campaign to raise $780,.
600 for the construction of a new
parochial and high school for girls al
North Capitol and X streets. The re-
ports showed that many elderly mer
and women earning small salaries have
contributed amounts which are big in
their eyes. One particular instance was
that of woman eighty years old. who
was earning So a month. In her case
it was a real sacrifice, but she insisted
on the campaigners taking her unso-
licited contribution.
Tle teams unanimously voted &c
work two days longer in the attempt
to raise the 100000. Rev. Father Pau

Antitrust Violation.

NEW YORK, February 16-Oficers
of the Newsprint Manufacturers Asso-
citation. an organization of sixty-eight
individuals and companies, appeared as
witnesses today before the special federal
grand jury chosen to investigate
whether increases in the price of news
print paper involves a criminal viola
ton of the antitrust law. After the
manufacturers have testified a number
of newspaper publishers will be called
and it is expected that the investiga-
ton will last at least a month. A huge
mass of documentary evidence is ready
for the consideration of the jurors A
large part of this has been collected by
the federal trade commission and
agents of the Department of Justice
The manufacturers. according to their
attorneys, attribute the high prices to
the increases in the cost of material
and labor and the scarcity of pulp They
call attention to the fact that the cost
of other papers besides newsprint has
gone up since the outbreak Of the war
