'RUCCLEs'' PICTURE
 AT COLUMBIA TODAY

Harry Leon Wilson's great story, "Ruggles of Red Gap" which ran for some time in the Saturday Evening Post, will receive it's first Phoenix showing at the Columbia theater this afternoon.
 It is one of the best pictures ever produced by the Essanay company which has produced many and many good pictures, featuring the inimitabe star Taylor Holmes. Critics have said of this picture that it is the greatest of comedies and those that remember the story will recall humor- ous episodes of the "Honorabie George his valet "Rugsles' and their wild western friends.
 As the English valet. Taylor Holmes has part that offers him a delight full opportunity to get the most out l of his rare vein of humor and his rise from a poor valet to dis tinguished American citizen and so- cial leader of Red Gap is indeed 1 thrilling.
 The whole story centers around "Ruggles." who is won from his 1 master, the "Honoroble George by crude westerner, Jeff Tuttle. He l is brought to the wilds of the west, l Wnere ne causes HlucH dmuSeIHcHt 1 for the COW persons" But Rug gles" soon learns the great American T game of draw poker and through his pat hand he becomes dis l tinguished.
 The filming of the picture took 1 place in Phoenix, Roosevelt dam and the Grand Canyon and Mr Holmes made many friends while visiting | here.
 The Columbia screen telegram, a news pictorial of latest developments on the western front and happenings in this country are shown and Little Mary McAllister in The Wonderful Event is also on the same bill which holds for three days at the Columbia

CIGARETTES ARE SHORTER

Germany is experiencing a shortage ot tobacco and as a consequence the size of cigarettes has been reduced. An official report. quoting the Leipsizer Nedeste Nachrichten, follows Bun- desrat decree provides that from Feb Iuary l, 1918, new regulations will go into effect, concerning the use of raw tobacco by cigarette factories. After that date, factories may not, in any one month, consume more tobacco than their average monthly figure during 1he second half of 1917. Formerly. il the limit were exceeded, a fine might be paid; now the limit is rigid"

Fairbanks Last Time at Lamara

Douglas Fairbanks. who is appear ing in "A Modern Musketeer' for the final showings at the Lamara today, enjoys the distinction of being the first motion picture producer to invade the Navajo Indian reservation in the Can yon du Chelley, about 90 miles from Gallup. Here many of the scenes were made, and many of them were made at the Grand Canyon in Arizona, where the Hopi Indians were photographed.
 "A Modern Musketeer' tells a re- markable story of modern youth who, by prenatal influence, has inherited the spirit of DArtagnan. It is this spirit which prompts many acts intended on his part as evidences of his desire to assist the fair sex, and invariably mis- understood by that same fair sex as crude attempts of modern ''masher.! It is this condition that creates so much of the humor of the film.

A. R. Cleveland, charged with mur- der, was acquitted by & jury in Judge Stanford's court yesterday.
 The jury deliberated less than an hour before returning the verdict that did not come as a surprise to those fla miliar with the case. The state had at- tempted to show that Cleveland had aided and abetted in the murder of An- drew Peay. who was shot by Elmer Pierson who. pleaded guilty to the crime. It was proved beyond all doubt that at the time of the shooting Cleve- land was so far under the influence of

Who's Your Nsiuhbor?"

Who's Your Neighbor. the latest photodrama which will be shown at the Empress theater for four days starting next Sunday with matinee each day at 2:30 o'clock and twice each evening, carries a message to humanity based on world old but interesting theme, viyidly presenting condition frsught with vital significance to us all. It tells an absorbing story in direct and forceful fashion of an earnest attemp. by woman's society to break up the segregated district in large city They are opposed by the district attorney, who strives vainly to convince them of the dire results which will inevitably follow the success of their efforts. However, the society wins, and s.,- uation is developed by which the hap piness and lives of several innocent people are nearly wrecked. The man ner in which the characters become in- volved with one another proudces a most thrilling story and a complicated plot, from which an entirely unex- pected climax is evolved, bringing hap piness and peace to all.

Hungry Eyes" at the Hip

Monroe Salisbury and Ruth Clifford, joint stars in His Wife in Arizona, which is filmed from the novel of the same name, have a sparkling vehicle.
 The picture is laid in Arizona where the hero comes from the east with the reputation of a horse thief and the manners of the old south for he is a Louisinian by birth. His charm Of manner wins the heart of the rancher to whom he has been sent by friends down south and therein lies the req son for this picture for a wealthy and not altogether too clean living rancher wants this beautiful Arizona miss for his wife. Of course they fight it out and the best man wins.
 It's in the telling that the charm of the story lies.

"a personal word from Federal Food
Administrator, E. F. Ladd)
Farmers are to be allowed an in
crease in the price of wheat to equal
ize the advance in freight rates which
will go into effect June oath. A tele-
gram received this week from Mr..
Hoover reads as follows:
"The advance in freight rates on the
oath of June will in justice to the far
mer necessitate an advance in the
price of wheat at the principal Miss
issippi Valley and Eastern Terminals
a few cents bushel. The advance
will be worked out so as to equalize as
far as possible, the loss that the far
mers will otherwise incur through the
increase in rates.
"Details of the rate advances will
probably not be shown until June
25th, at which date we are assembling
a committee of traffic experts to con-
slider what actual advances in price
is necessary as compensation. 1t is
impossible to complete such plan for
a few days after the above date.
"It is our intention. as far as the
peculiar character Of the rate advance
enables us to do so, to work out a
plan that will leave the farmer in the
same intrinsic position that he was in
before that date"

thanked them for the treatment ac-

The only trouble they went against
in their march of the county was when
they encountered the Italians on this
side of the Piave. There were some
questions and heckling at Ludden and
rather than get into this genuine hot
bed of nti-Nonpartisanism they con.
tinued their journey towards Oakes.

very promising.

first vice president of the Missouri
Synod, represented the general body
and led in the discussions
A statement of the principles in re.
gard to the war was put up and it
unanimously carried to loyalty sup

of the feeling of members of the
Synod $40 was taken up for the Red
Cross at the Sunday service, and four
of the ministers were called on for
patriotic addresses at patriotic service,
given in honor of the boys who were
to leave next day for camp.
The missionary pastors were voted
an increase Of $40 per month in their
salary.
Mr.. Dierks said the crops to Valley
City were fine, but the north half Of
the state up the 500 line was very
poor. A very small crop will be ha1-
vested, no matter how favorable may
be the conditions from now on. Be-
tween blowing out, freezing and dry
weather the crops north are in bad
shape. From here to Valley City con-
ditions could not be better.
