ments represented locally, 100 per
cent patriotic, and bringing their
subscriptions up to more than $42.-
600.
While the Frisco road has few men
employed here in comparison with
the Rock Island, they are none the
less patriotic. They subscribed ST.

HAUBEY THEATRE.

The most romantic story in Amer- can history, that of the feud between Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton, which finally resulted in the death of Hamilton at the hands of Burr in a duel staged on the heights of the Palisades across from New York City, is told in "The Beautiful Mrs. Reynolds" the new. World-Picture Brady Made which will be shown Today at the Hauber theatre.
 There are four stars in this attrac- tion-Carlyle Blackwell, June Elvidge, Evelyn Greeley and Arthur Ashley and a host of favorite film players assist these stars in the rendition of this big production. In fact the cast one of the biggest assembled for a in "The beautiful Mrs. Reynolds" is motion picture in long time.
 Needless to say the story is his- tQrically accurate and is staged with a careful regard for all the historical details necessary for it's proper telling The story of the feud is so dramatic in itself that it forms perfect movie story.

FEW ARRESTS HERE IN
 YEARS FIRST MONTH
Only 1O2 Cases BrOugh! Into Munici.
 pal Court by Police, Constables and Sherii;S,

One hundred and two criminal cas- es had been docketed in the munici. pal court up to yesterday afternoon, A days after the establi ;hment of the tribunal.
 The arrests in a of these were made by the police. the arrests in 23 by the cOnstable's department, and the arrests in one day by the sherifin's department.
 Under the provisions of the law, the cOnstables do not receive fees, being paid salaries, as are members of the police and sheriff's depart ments No costs are taxed in cases growing out of violations of city or dinances, but costs are taxes in cases originating out of violations of state laws. These fees formerly went into the pockets of the justices of the peace and the constables; Now they go into the treasury of the court
 The fees collected during the frs. month of the operation of the court did not near cover the expenses, and there is some speculation as to the exact cause for the few arrests for violation of state laws. Whether the officers are less vigilant now than they were in the days when they col lected so much per arrests. per sum- mons,' per etc., or whether the peo- pie of this community are "jes' match erly" fracturing fewer laws. That is the, question.

After the artist re- ceives the grand prize, the girl carries out her part of the agreement.b by pub licly acknowledging the prince as her lover; but the fate which watches over true lovers saves her from the great est sacrifice Through the princes Hindoo servant, the tangle is finally unravelled, and "the man apd the maid" embarked together upon the blissful seas of matrimony.

REST THEATRE.

The Blind Adventure" will be the feature at the Best Theatre today.
 Many who know the story, "The Agony Column" probably foresaw it's exceptional possibilities as the basis of photoplay, and no doubt this Vita graph adaptation will realize the greatest expectations of its readers. In any event they will agree with these not familiar with the story before sec ing the film, that it is dandy good feature.
 An excellent scene construction of the plot, which abounds in mystery and romance, has permitted pnoto- play of more than the average feature can reveal in it's whole five parts. Ia holds fascinated attention to the end The theme is decidedly novel and will invest new interest in the agony" column, that list of want ads which many know only by it's mere dignified title of personals"
 The locale is London, just before the war. and though many of the eXter- iors are undeniably New Yorkish, the producers have injected commend able atmosphere considering the ham, dicap to realism. An excursion to London now for few scenes is rather out of the question.
