 This Greater Vitagraph Serial, the first episode of which is shown tomor- row, is the most marvellous melo- dramatic romance of the great out doors ever produced and one that is certain to enthrall you.
 It is the story of a terrific struggle for a mineral deposit of fabulous value wherein a fearless man and an heroic girl stake their lives against dual odds-the terrors and perils of nature and the fiendishness of band of out laws who shatter the law and destroy mems lives in their mad pursuit of fortune.
 Every kind of thrill and danger-of the air, the land and watetr--is met with as the story unfolds.
 Hard-riding. quick-shooting fighting men, afraid of nothing on earth, meet in battle time after time and struggle for supremacy with primeval ferocity.
 This wonderful photoplay has for it's stage the vast outdoors, with the mountains or the desert always in the background.
 William Duncan, the greatest fight ing man on the screen, and Carol Hol- loway, whom you will call the most fearless girl in the world, play the leading roles in this marvellous drama and you will follow their adventures breathlessly. You will learn to love them and admire them and their ex- periences will be so realistic that you will feel as if you know them.

MANCHURIAN WHEAT
COMING HERE TO
AID WESTERN CROPS

Changchun, Manchuria, Sept. %
Manchtirian and Siberian wheat
probably will be exported to Amer
lea to replace American wheat ship
ped. to the Entente Allies in Europe.
Because Of the lack Of locomotives
and cars, it is impossible to send the
wheat surplus from eastern Asia into
European Russia. At scores of rail-
way stations in Siberia and Manchu-
ria, sacks of wheat only slightly pro-
tected by temporary sheds are rapid
ly deteriorating.
Agents Of the United States gov
eminent have been inspecting the
wheat and soy beans which are await
ing transportation, and it is probable
that the wheat and beans within rea-
sonable distance of tidewater will be
diverted to America.
There are many flour mills in ST.
IBERIA and Manchuria. European
Russia lacks milling facilities. Plans
are under consideration for the re-
moval Of some of the mills from wes-
tern Siberian to centers in southern
Russia, where large quantities of
wheat are available.

BRITISH MERCHANT
MARINE NOW GOING
:. INTO. WATER FAST

London, Sept. 29-The first STAN
dardized merchant steamer built to
the order of the. government to re-
place those destroyed by German sub
marines has been completed and plac-
ed in commission in less than seven
months from the date on which her
keel was laid. 1t is expected that
vessels similar to this first one will
be constructed in: four to four and
one-half months. Many hundreds Of
others are being built and Sir Joseph
Maclay announced during the trial
trip of the first standardized steamer.
that every ship-yard in the United
Kingdom was full OF such vessels In
process Of construction.
It is understood that six types of
cargo steamers known as A, B. C, d.
e and F, are at present being con-
structed Of about 5000 tons dead
weight, 1000 tons, 5000 tons and 81
900 tons, and the construction of
other types is being considered. Some
of the ships already built were espe-
cfally adapted for carrying grain, be-
ing single deckers, others with twin
decks would be suitable for carving
| any class of cargo.
The fact that engines of standard
| design can be fitted in any vessel of
the type for which 1t is adapted has
| merits. at the outset and also merits
when repairs to the machinery are re-
Qufred since spare parts will be read
| lily available.
| The operation of all the State STAN
| dard ships will be placed in the care
of steamship managers subject to d.
rection of the Shipping Controller.

WHEN EMIGRANTS
ARE BOOMERANGS

Vittorio Racca, in World Outlook
for October says: The influence of
emigration on the whole southern
half Of Italy has been OF the most
profound and lasting character. First
or all, emigration, making the sup
ply of labor scarcer, automatically
raised the wages, bettered the condi-
tons of work, made the treatment of
the laborers on the part of the pa
droni" less medieval and more hu-
| man. It was then no longer neces-
sary to emigrate in order to better
ones position; it was perfectly possi-
BILE to do that at home; but it was
necessary to stick together, to be or
ganized, in order to preserve and to
increase the economic and social pro-
gress thus far achieved. And SO or
ganizations Of every kind sprung UP.
such as labor unions, cooperative
| savings banks, cooperative stores, CO.
operative insurance companies and
| so on. Political education concern
| ing the rights and requirements of
the working class made more progress
| in those few years than during the
ave preceding centuries.
Many of those who had made
money In America had come back;
| they introduced new manners at
home: had new houses built for them,
all clean. all whitewashed. in regular
straight and broad streets, the AM
erican" quarters, or sometimes the
| American villages, were built, much
less picturesque, but much more ny
gienic. A new spirit, new ideas were
introduced into business; every form
of economic activity teemed with new
processes and devices imported direct
| w. from America
| Then came the millions sent back to
Italy by the emigrants for their rela-
tives or for their own future enjoy
ment. This capital accelerated econo-
mic progress, made a number Of new
enterprises possible, helped power
fully to better the living conditions
of the peasants. The emigration Of
| the peasants of the South has been
i the safety Of Italy. There are villages
in Southern Italy wnere no young
man can hope to get a bride, II he
has not proved his mettle by coming

These were the conditions Of the
i peasants of Southern Italy when the
war broke out; those peasants took
up arms and are fighting like. heroes
for a motherhood that they love more.
because it is now more like a. real
mother to them. Those men and wo-
men who are not fighting in the
trenches are nevertheless helping to
i win the war. Ammunition factories
have risen all over Italy; special
i schools have been created to teach
men and women2to perform the most
difficult works of Industrial produc-
ton; patriotism and high wages have
J attracted there millions of peasants,
yesterday unskilled, but today highly
skilled and specialized workers.

LAND OF MIDNIGHT

ASIDE WINTER STORE

Stockholm, Sept. 29-Owing to the
expected scarcity of food during au-
tumn, the stock Of live cattle in Swe-
den will be reduced, approximately
fifteen per cent. and steps are now
being taken to arrange sailing and
packing the enormous quantity Of
meat which will result from the
slaughter of cattle. The government
also announces that licenses have been
granted for the export Of 5000 head
of cattle to Norway OF Finland but
nothing to Germany as heretofore.
The government has taken ener-
getic steps to organize wood cutting

nous quantity OF fuel which will be
wanted in the winter, Germany has

ToDAY's ANNIVERSARIES.

The first great project for provid-
ing a city with general water supply
was successfully completed in Lon
don on Sept. 20, 1913. This supply
was brought from New River. The
work commenced in 1903, was carried
out despite great opposition and many
difficulties by Hugh Hyddleton,, an
eminent engineer of that period. The
water was distributed through the
streets of London by means of pipes
made from the stems Of small elm
trees, cut in six feet lengths, with one
end tapered so as to fit into the bore
of the other. Four hundred miles of
such pipes were laid and the supply
formally inaugurated on Sept. 20,
1913. The 399th anniversary of the
epoch making event was celebrated in
London by civic and other public or
CARNATIONS. Water had been first
conveyed to the English metropolis In
the thirteenth century, but the works
were on small scale and supplied
only a small portion OF the popuIa-
ton.

Larue Patriots

Abraham Lincoln. when he looks
down upon Larue County. Kentucky,
the county where he was born, smiles
with satisfaction, for he knows that
the spirit which animated him in his
day has not died out, and has added
to its strength as shrine Of patrio-
tisn. The reason for this is that ev-
cry one of the 1872 men called as the
quota of Larue county in the national
draft was examined and every one
of them passed.. So Larue county may
be looked upon as q spot where, since
Lincoln's day they have continued to
breed men with red blood, men who
will fight without question when
their country calls them.

heavens, and this makes it a far more
easily observable object, In fact for
many days during the year, Venus,
when it is an evening star, sets after
nine o'clock. At present it sets a lit
tie before nine and for that reason
does not find place on our NAB; but
it can be seen in all it's beauty right
after the sun has set.
The Other Planets
Jupiter, the giant of our family, is
now an evening star and just man
ages to creep over the ledge of our
map in the far northeast Later in
the month and next month it will get
into good position for comfortable OBJ
servation. 1t is in the constellation
Taurus, not far from the Hyades and
Aldebaran. If you follow the direc-
tions for the study Of it's motions as
given above, you will notice that for
a time its motions will be westward
through the field of stars, and not
eastward, as usual. This westward
motion is called retrograde motion
and it is due to the relative positions
and motions of the planet and the
earth in their respective orbits. OF
course the true orbital motion of the
planet in its orbit is, like that of all
PAeS-iOeo cAA0 VI iiCd1ly tIlS OIIl0E
bodies of the solar system, from west
to east. Il
Mars rises in the east at about two
o'clock, just short time before Sat-
urn. On October 1, early in the
morning, Mars and Saturn will pass
each other in the sky, or, as astron-
omers call it, will be in conjunction.
Mars will be about two-thirds of a
degree to the north of Saturn; this
is a. distance in the heavens a little
larger than the diameter of the moon,
which is just about half degree. The
conjunction will occur about a. m
OF the other two planets, Neptune is
near Saturn, and Uranus is shown on
the map, but neither is good object
for observation for either the naked
eye astronomer or the one equipped
with opera glass or small telescope.
The Fixed Star Capella
The far northeast presents par
ticular1y fine spectacle this month in
the early evenings, with Jupiter, al
ready mentioned above, and the two
first-magnitude stars CapeIla and Al
debaran. The word Capella means
| she-goat; the male goat is also repre-
sented in the heavens by the group
lCaprfcornus. Perhaps this shows the
Importance -
domestic economy Of the ancients. AT
any rate, Capella is the fifth brightest
star in the entire heavens, the third
brightest seen from these northern
1atftudes and next to Vega, the
brightest star lying to the. north Of the
celestial equator. IntrinsicaIly, 1t Is
calculated to be nearly two hundred
times as great a sun as ours. It is a
double star which is speeding away
from us at the rate of about twenty
miles per second The pure white
lustre of Capella is unsurpassed in
l the whole armament
