CIVILIZATION" IS
 OPPORTUNE PICTURE

"Civilization," Thos. H. Ince's great war spectacle, which comes to the Gem Theater for one day, Tuesday, June 26, is without a doubt the most opportune picture ever shown on the screen.
 The people of Prescott and vicinity are very fortunate in having an op- portunity to see this wonderful pie ture as it has been showing in the large cities at much higher prices.
 This picture is the only one ever personally endorsed by a President of the United States. President Will son is seen on the screen congratulat- ing Thos. H. Ince on his great pro- duction. When this picture was shown in Washington, D. C., our president said that it was a picture that evry American citizen should see.
 By showing the ruthless destruc- tion of life and property in the pres ent war it puts forth one of the strongest arguments why this coun- try must take hand in the conflict. Every known method of modern war fare is shown in all its. realism.
 Land and water battles, air raids, and submarine chases are shown. A torpedo sinks an ocean liner, sub- marine goes to its watery grave with all on board, aeroplanes come down over the city and actually blow mas sive buildings to atoms. The entire Pacific fleet is shown in action. Two real battleships are sunk. Two real torpedoes, costing $1100 each are fired. In fact you are taken to the battle field as real as if you were there personally. But the picture is not all war. It has beautiful story of love and humanity running through it and a wonderful lesson is taught that love and not hate must eventually rule the universe. Through the entire picture the ruth less, relentless iron hand of one man is shown in his mad striving for world supremacy, but in the end his will is broken and the demands of an outraged world eventually overcome and forever shatter his dream of des- potism and the picture closes with a defeated but happy people returning to the homes they have been torn away from. This is without doubt the greatest picture that has ever been shown here and everyone should see it.
 There will be special music and the prices are within reach of all. Off, cers in the army have praised it, ministers of every denomination have endorsed it, people all over the coun- try have and are still focking to see 1 it, and one and all say that "Civiliza- 1 tion" outclasses any other picture they have ever witnessed. Remem- Der it is only here for one day. There will be four performances, beginning at 2:30 matinee; night 7:45.

(Bv Morning Journal SDecis. Leased Wue.)

Amsterdam, April 7 (via London,
April 8, 3:45 a. MI Emperor Will
liam has ordered German Imperial
Chancellor Won Bethmann-H -Hollweg to
submit to him certain proposals for
the reform of the Prussian electoral
law to be discussed and put into ef-

An official telegram from Berlin an
nouncing this order adds that it fore
shadows also the reform of the upper

The text of the emperor's order to
the imperial chancellor, who is also
president of the ministry of state, fol-
lows:
Fighting for Existence.
Never before have the German
people proved to be so firm as in this
war. The knowledge that the father
land is fighting in bitter self-defense
has exercised wonderful reconciling
power and, despite all sacrifices on
the battlefield and severe privations
at home, their determination has re-
manned imperturbable to stake their
last for the victorious issue.
The national and social spirit have
understood each other and be-
come united and this has given us
.steadfast strength. Both of them
realized what was built up in long
years of peace and amidst many in
ternal struggles. This was certainly
worth fighting for. Brightly before my
eyes stand the achievements of the
entire nation in battle and distress.
The events Of this struggle for the
existence of the empire introduce.
with high solemnity, new time.

SIGHT A GERMAN
SEA RAIDER OFF
NANTUCKET LIGHT
Shipping Is Warned Back Into
Port by Deputy Collector of
Customs, and Naval Pro-
lection Measures Taken,

Newport, r. l., April "A German
sea raider was officially reported off
Nantucket at 7:40 o'clock this morn
ing. The deputy collector of customs
warned all shipping not to leave port
until further notice.
The raider, according to informa
ton received by Deputy Collector of
Customs Wolcott, was bound west.
Immediately after the naval au
thorities were notified of the raiders
presence word was sent to the col
lector's office to keep shipping in port
The name of the ship or station which
sent the report was not revealed. A
number of destroyers are on patrol
off the coast
1t was almost within hailing dis.
tance of the Nantucket shoal light
ship that the German submarine U-53
sank six ships on October 8. The U-53
operated in the steamship lane travel
ed by vessels from New York and
Boston to European ports.
Word that the raider was approach
ing the New England coast caused
great activity in naval circles, al
though plans for dealing with the
enemy were not made public. The
collector of customs made every ef-
fort to get in touch at once with ship
ping agents at other ports to warn
them of the danger.
