GERMANS SEEK TO INVADE
 DISASTER AND SAVE kAISEE

PARIS, Oct. 8.-The French news. papers in continuing to comment on the Teuton peace offers believe that the German request for an armistice is an attempt to evade certain dis aster. They declare that Germany hopes to conclude peace which will permit her to exploit her peace trea- ties of Brest-Litovsk and Bucharest, and also save the HohenzolIern dyn- asty. The papers say an armistice
 is impossible under present condi' tions, and that the conditions of Chancellor Maximiian do not agree with the conditions laid down by President Wilson.

in a photopiay differing widely from his former pictures, yet giving him even more opportunity to display his exceptional ability. This is 'The Family SkeletOn,' a semi-farcical drama founded on tho firm conviction of young Billy Bates, a millionaire, that he has inherited an irrisistable tendency to drink. How his charming chorus girl sweetheart cures him is amusingly told and the excellent cast lends able assistance to the efforts of the star. Along with this excel lent feature there will be a. special act, which will be Adelaide Bell and Co.,, three women in a novelty danc- ing offering. This act caused a great sensation in New York, and Miss Bell is doing an exceptionally good act, as she is a very good dancer. There will also be two other very good acts of vaudeville.

" Lillian said For Goodness

 The words stared Up at me from be page I held in my hand. 1 did bt need to hunt for the signature to te mysterious letter to Dicky which |y mother-in-laW had sent on to me. knew only too well the dashing, bold |hndwriting of Grace Draper.

 | It was not the form of the words at sickened me-Lillian would prob ply have addressed a letter to Dicky the same manner-but the infer hce they conveyed of a friendship &nich not even my husbands knowl- ] ge of the girls infamy had affected. She had tried to murder me, she sd shot Dicky and herself in the dra- 3atic interview she had staged after 3r attempt to drown me, and her ben association with Harry Under |bod-Dicky's friend and Lillian's &sband--was a shameful thing.

usual letter, l thought I'd take a chance and address it out to your country estate.'"
 Again my eyes sought Lillians al though until she spoke I was really not conscious that I had looked at her.
 For I was utterly bevildered at this reference to the "cat at the studio" l knew, of course, that Edith Fairfax the girl art student whose ambitions in dramatic writing Diclly was fur thering. shared a studio with her sis ter Leila in the same building which housed my husband. I had been moro than a little jealous of the delicate. pretty Virginia girl, whose secret love for Dicky I had guessed, but I hadn't dreamed that her friendship with Dicl1y had reached the stage of over seeing his studio and ccnsoring his correspondence.
 Queerly enough this reference to Edith Fairfax hurt mo more poignant ly than did the extravagant terms of endearment with which Grace Draper had embellished her letter. "As far as that exquisitely witty re- mark about Edith Fairfax is con- cerned,' Lillian said, and l noted gratefully that she evidently was fol- lowing the movement of my eyes and m entally rereading the letter with me, 'shes switched in on the wrong cir cult. Dicky's more kinds of d fool than I have time to enumerate, but he isn't a knave-yet."
 I said bitterly to myself that I couldn't agree with her, and I won dered how she could still believe in Dicky after such proof of his base ness as that which was in my hands.
 My eyes strayed back to the letter. I loathed every word of it, but it had @ horrible fascination for me. I felt that I must miss no syllable of it.
 "Of course, I know I'm taking 2 chance in sending this to Marvin. That hen minded frau of yours may open 1t, but I'm rather banking that she won't because it is addressed in this fool scrawl. She will probably figure that it is a begging letter from somebody living in a slum, and so be afraid she may catch some awful dis ease if she touches it. I have just laughed myself sick over the remem- brance of some of the things you have told me about her fool theories"
 A Primitive Impulse.
 I shall always feel a hidden sym pathy for a murderer who kills in the heat of passion after this. The beau tiful, moclSing face of Grace Draper rose before me, I could imagine her laughing mockery directed toward my foibles, and Dicky-to think he could have discussed me with her, made fun of me for her amusement! I found myself croo<ing my fingers into a clawing motion, and knew that the primitive feline impulse to rend and tear ones enemy had me by the throat.
 Lillian came over to me, put a calming hand on my shoulder ana said forcibly:

SEAL OF SILENCE"
 ON KEENEYS SCREEN

The Seal of Silence" the Nitagraph traction at keeney's theater, is the story of the eminent surgeon and stu dent of hereidity who prOpounds the theory that in some manner the child reveals the parent, but who fails to recognize his own son and unjuStly cOnVicts the woman he loves, the keeper of the secret his wife and the mother of the child had carried to the grave. Earle Williams has the featured role, with Grace Darmond playing opposite him. The supporting cast is made up Of Kate Price, Colin Kenny, Martin Best and Miss Kirk ham. The author is William Addison Lathrop, and the picture is directed by Tom Mills.
 Here's just one sample of the little troubles that come ono after another in the life of the director. Tom Mills needed a typical Eastern cottage for a scene in '"The Seal of Silence" After searching all over Los Angeles and it's environs he found one that might have been transplanted from New England, only two large palms graced the lawn in such position that they could not be eliminated in photograph the house. The owner must have been ;L Yankee, judging by his bargaining but Vitagraph finally got the palms at a handsome price and the house was put into a scene without any semi tropic atmosphere.

Monotony or Fun
RY RUU CAMERON

During the past year l spent some months in the country. threc-hour train ride from the nearest city of any size.
 Of course a trip to town was a large occasion and when anyone in the village planned TO go the fact vas usually well known.
 Accordingly, ! knew a friend Of mine planned to go to town one Tuesday. Tuesday came and I met her att the store. You didn't gO?''
 "No." she said. I'm going tomor- row. I found that Mrs. c. naminS a, woman who is an acquaintance, but not a close friend) was going tomor- row so, of course I waited so l could have company.
 The well grounded assurance that of course anyone would prefer com- pany on such a ride. even ii 1t were not of the highest quality. $ the fact at which l have taken out a lance to tilt.
 | Don't Care for CompanY-)ust Tor
 COmpauy'S Sake.
 To my mind ride on the trtln alone is a treat. Of course | should be glad to have a cOnGcna4 friend with me there, just as much tls any
  nanv merely for companys $ sake.
 When | have such to make l look forward to it. Three solid hours all to myself, no Interruptions, no eXac- tions of any sort. Why it is a verit- able treasure.
 Some Nuts to NibbIc.
 l arm myself with my knitting bag and with the latest copy of that be- loved weekly review which 1 am u- ways trying to find time to keep up with. Also, (perhaps it i& a plebian confession) I allow myself some chocolate or salted nuts to nibhle. My onlv difficulty is in deciding which l shall do first, watch the people about mo, knit read my weekly, or just sit looking out at the landscape and dreaming. I once knew a girl who did not care for reading, and who when her work was done could sit down in q chair and look out of the window and think. But l have never been able to do that except in a nov ing vehicle and so l specially enjoy the pleasant hypnosis the hurrying landscape seems to cast over my mind. At such times conversation would be an intrusion rather than pleasure.
 \ Lot of Fun for the Taking.
 I like best to ride on the train but even long rides on the electrics are not as annoying to me as they are to some, (provided only I am not re- quired to keep changing). l think the reason that such trips are so very tiring to some people is because they arc always stra' ming ahead with their minds and trying to be there instead
 
 ing monotony of the journey.
 If you like to read and like to dream and don't like to fret, there is a great deal of fun in life that you can have for the taking, isn't there"

AMERICANS woRkINe FINE

LONDON, July 26.-The correspond ent of the Daily Mail with the Ameri can army cn the Aisne-Marne front, telegraphed Wednesday, after relating the incident surrounding the capture of the village of Epieds, which changed hands twice besore the Americans fin ally conquered 1t and pushed well be- yond. says:
 'The Germans apparently are fight ing troops from all kinds of divisions into the line, possibly because many of the divisions opposing the Americans have been seriously reduced.
 "The Americans captured large quantities of ammunition. The Ameri- can airmen downed five machines in two hours today"
 The same correspondent, telegraph ing Thursday, says:
 More progress is reported in the Fere and Ris forests where the French and Americans are fighting side by side. The Germans are still offering tenacious resistance. in which their machine gunners play the chief part.
 More large fires have been seen inside the German lines near Oulchy- Le Chateau and Fere-En-T -Tardenois."

 The sugar situation confronting the United States is described by the food administration as follows:
 Sugar supplies throughout the country, in homes, stores. factories and bakeries are at low ebbs; prOduc- ton from the American beet and Lou isiana cane crops has been disappoint- ing; the yield in Porto Rico has like wise been smaller than anticipated; and the inability of the United States and the allies to secure sugar from Java and other distant sources on ac- count of imperative call for ships for the movement of troops and their sup plies has materially reduced the sup ply from such quarters. Added to this already difficult situation the quantity needed by the army and navy greatly

 in that region the Germans have a number of hgnJ railways. Inese once out of commission it would leave the Germans no choice but to hasten DacK- ward.
 Military students discredit some what the prOOaDnity or an carry cJun- ter by the Germans on a bIg scaie, especially on the Solssons flanK. They point out that the Germans seldom plan hurriediy, desiring 10 deliDeraIe as 10 their movements.

 jected to occasional shells, both shrap. nel and gas, though without damage
 Behind the lines long transports Cl
 allied troops fill the roads leading to
 the front, the allied planes and Observ- ing balloons giving warning against interference by enemy artillery or hos tile aircraft. The American troops both on the line and on the roads are keen spirited. Many of them have learned smattering of French, often yell % the French marching by amusing con- ments on "the big show"
 Invariably the French reply, usually in language which the Americans do not understand, although they shou; their approval no matter what the words may mean. The Americans also undertake conversation with the Ana mites, whose countenances rarely change and who never attempt to re. ply
 Intermingled in the line of battle and along the roads are white, black and yellow races in all the units and the big machine is moving without q knock or lost motion. Now and then the color scheme to the rear of the fighting lines is broken by a column of gray clad prisoners, whose appear ance is always quickly noticed by the troops who are more accustomed to the khaki uniforms and the blue O, the French. In scores of cases pris- oners have begged their guards to tell them when they are to be shot The majority of them, however, stOlidly ac- cept what they believe to be their fate. Back of the lines there are dressing stations and fixed hospitals, and the American wounded are cared for expe- ditiously and skillfully, in a manner re- flecting the qualities of veteranship now belonging to the American estab- llshments in France. American doctors and nurses, men and women, are worR- ing night and day to relieve pain and restore injured members. To them young men representing almost every state in the union and occasionally a French or British soldier, are hurried to be cared for until they could be transferred elsewhere.
 The same spirit of cooperation is displayed in all the hospitals of the al- lies. But the number of wounded is not so great as might be expected from the magnitude of the operations.
 Y. M. c. A. men are also close on the heels of the advancing Americans. One outfit appeared at Jaulgonne early in the morning with cigarettes. candy and other delicacies to be disposed of in their canteens. The guns were roar ing on all sides, but Jaulgonne, it was announced, had been captured, and the Y. M. c. A. took charge. The eommanc- ing officer ordered the Y. M. c. A. men out, explaining not only that it was too hot, but that the men would gath CT wherever they were and German shells had habit of going where the German observers spotted crowds.

FAIRBANKS AT CENTRAL

One of the heroic stunts performed by Douglas Fairbanks in "A Modern Muskateer." which will be shown at the Central theater tomorrow, is climb ing up the side of a steep canyon on a rope with Marjorie Daw hanging to his neck. The photOplay was staged in the Grand canyon of AizOna, and presents Fairbanks as a modern D Artagnan whose adventures rival those of the famous Dumas hero. Besides heroic deeds and thrilling scenes, the film abounds in typical Fairbanks humor. Eugene Ormonde suffers all kinds of abuse, and is finally dragged at the heels of Tully MarshalPs gallOp- ing horse, which act is supposed to square a debt of the past, when Or monde played Marshall fa.se and caused him to became a fugitive from justice.
