THE DAUGHTER OF THE GODS
AT THE HIPP THEATRE

Those who contend that woman is
| too weak physically to contend with
man at the voting booth and therefore
should be denied the franchise should
go to the Hipp Theatre next Monday
and Tuesday night, December "a and
25 and see Annette Kellerman in "a
Daughter of the Gods" the motion
| picture spectacle which has its pre-
miere there last night under the di-
rection of William Fox. The sight
of this picture will end all argument.
1t seems almost Incredible that any
human heing, man or woman, could
go through the stunts performed by
Miss Kellerman and come out of
them alive. Either she is super
woman or women are surely entitled
to rank with men in physical endur-
ance.
Compared with what Miss Keller
man endures in this picture, most
other films are child's play. There
are time in the progress of the pic
ture when one feels certain that it
must be dummy which is seen. And
then Miss Kellerman's charming face
and figure bob up serenely, and one
realizes that she really has performed
the impossible. There are a scores
of stunts shown which can't be done
but she does them.
1t is doubtful if there is a woman on
the stage who could enact Miss Keller
mans role in "a Daughter of the
Gods"

auto ACCIDENT ON SIATER0AD.
WEYERHAEUsER CAR HITS BANK
WHEN WHEEL COMES OFF,
NEAR BELLE PRAIRIE

Mrs. G. A. Weyerhaeuser and Miss
Bessie Lee of this city and
two guests figured in an automobile
accident a short distance this side of
Belle Prairie on the state road last
"Wednesday evening, which, fortunate
", did not prove very serious. Mrs.
Weyerhaeuser was the only one Of the
party who was hurt and she sustained
only slight scratches on one hand.
The party was returning home from
an outing at their lake home at Alex
ander when the accident occurred.
The right front wheel of the car came
off and bounded over wire fence,
rolling way out into q field, and the
axle struck the dirt, blowing up the
road for distance of about six feet,
after which it left the road for about
ten feet and then struck tho bank,
where it buried itself fast. The car
was not travelling fast when the acci-
dent occurred.
The impact of the sudden stop when
the car struck the bank threw Mrs.
Weyerhaeuser who sat in the front
seat next to Miss Lee, the driver,
against the Windshield and her right
hand went through the glass: She had
q. pair Of heavy gloves on and fortu-
nately she sustained only a fewsseratch-
es on the hand.
The damaged car was left on the
road and the party was brought to
town in the Musser car, which was sent
out after them.

of Mark H. Latta VS.. w. H. Bourke, in
which Latta was given damages for
500 for malicious prosecution, was set
aside by Judge Parsons of Fergus Falls
in an order filed with Clerk Of Court
istoll. This case grew out Of the arrest
of Latta at Royalton on a charge Of
selling apples without license on COM
plant Of Mr.. Bourke. Latta was con-
fined in jail day and released. He
then brought suit against Bourke for
damages for malicious prosecution, and
was awarded $500 by the jury. The
case was tried at the june term last
year. Bourke asked for a new trial,
which was granted and the case was
tried again last January. This time
Latta s damages were cut down to 800.
.Bourke, through his attorney, moved
to have the verdict set aside, and the
motion was granted by Judge Parsons.
Judge Roeser has filed a decision in
the case Of John" Bargabos VS.. Joseph
Mcdonald, granting the plaintiff judg-
;ment for $S57.11 as commission for SER
vices rendered as buyer of grain for

RELAY TOUR GOES THROUGH
PARTY TRAVERsING JEFFERSON
HIGHWAY HERE WEDNESDAY
ROADS IN FINE SHAPE

The Double Relay Sociability run
from Winnipeg to the gulf and return
passed through Little Falls Wednesday
afternoon on the trip down. The first
car arrived here at about 4:10 p. M, a
few minutes ahead of schedule. A
good sized crowd turned out to greet
the visitors.
A party of local men went to Itasca
State Park Tuesday noon to meet the
tour, arriving there in the evening.
Park Rapids entertained the party at
the park with big banquet at Doug
las lodge In the evening. The Park
Rapids band of twenty-three pieces fur
nished music and there were several
speakers. The park was a night con-
troll. Those who went up from here
were J. K. Martin, M. M. Williams, II.
f. Biddinger and Ed. Nj. LaFond.
J. D. Clarkson, general manager of
the Jefferson Highway association was
in the first car and Mayor Davidson Of
Winnipeg, Premier Norris Of Manitoba
and two commissioners from Winnipeg
were in the second and third. A broth
cr of Mr.. Clarkson was in the party.
The car with the Winnipeg mayor
and Manitoba premier stopped down
town for few minutes and these two
gentlemen gave, brief talks. They
spoke on the war and on the import
ance of the Jefferson Highway as Gre
:ating more friendship between the peo-
pie Of Canada and the United States.
Mr. Davidson said that the highway
would prove Of great advantage COM
mercially and from the standpoint Of
sociability. He also said that when
the war is over and the people of Can;
ada are settled back to the ordinary
routine, it is planned to extend the
highway from Winnipeg to Hudson
Bay. This would make the highway
about four thousand miles long. At
present it is between two and three
thousand miles long.
The party making the tour found
roads in excellent shape everywhere
along the route traversed so far and
the weather was most favorable for the
trip. From here a large number of
nars accompanied the partv down the
river road, some going down only few
miles, others going to Royalton, few
to st, Cloud and J. X. Martin accom-
J pnnying the party to St. Paul. Mr.
