CHARLIE CHAPLIN
SUES IMITATOR

New York, Nov. 5-Charles Chaplin,
whose feet, hands, eyes, mustache,
cane, ETC., misbehave from one end Of
a great many movie reels to the other,
will be irreparably injured If julius
Potash and Isadore Paskov are not
restrained from exhibiting a film en-
titled Charlie in the Trenches" in the
Crystal Hall theatre, As East 14th
street, according to suit brought in
the Federal district court yesterday
by Chap1in's counsel, Nathan Burkan,
1875 Broadway.
In asking for the injunction Chaplin
alleges that the film is patched one
and that a Glow comedian" who re-
sembles the plaintiff, initiates manner
isms and his misbehaving feet, hands,
eyes, etc., and asks for $4,000 dam
ages.

Behind M FootIights
PLAZA
(Reviewl


Peals of laughter greeted Charlie
Chaplin in his famous picture, ''Shoul-
der Arms" which was shown at the
Plaza theatre four times yesterday.
Without a doubt this is the greatest
comedy picture that has ever been
screened and Charles with his own
IDEAS of how to beat the Hun is Inn
mense. When mail day arrives and
| there's no mail for Charlie he surely
is very much disheartened soldier
boy and tries to make up for the de-
ficiency by being interested in other
soldiers mail, much to their disgust.
But when the time comes for Charlie
to answer the call for volunteers to
do daring deeds with the possibility
that he will never come back, he is
right there. Then there's the camou-
f1age work and Charlie is camoudaged
to represent the trunk of tree and
succeeds in killing every German in
sight He then wins a medal for
bravery when he returns to his trench
with 10 capAred Germans, but the
climax Is reached when with the as
sistance Of a French girl he drives
back into the lines with the Kaiser
and all his staff and presents them to
his company. The picture is full of
good wholesome comedy and is equally
as good for children as for their pa
rents.
The Boyarr Co., famous Russian
singers and dancers, presenting their
artistic art in scene at the Kremlin
Of Moscow, was a delight to all music
lovers. The company is composed OF
three women and four men who pre-
sent the songs and dances of their
native country in a manner that is
next to perfection.
Wood and Wyde, well known in
Bridgeport, present brand new nov
city comedy variety act that is sure
to please all audiences. The act is an
extreme novelty. Both young people
have been thrown out of their board
ing places, but patch up their trou-
bles by exchanging rooms. While ar
ranging the change there are many
amusing situations encountered whicf
make comedy galore. To close the act
they introduce an effective and orig
inal act that is indeed pretty.
Rosamond and Dorothy, two charm.
ing young women, are musical ar.
lists. One plays the violin and the
other the piano and add their share
to the entertainment on the bill.
The Wonder Bears are also a grea-
attraction and are also a diversion
The two bears are among the creates
trained animals in the country ant
perform stunts, on rollers, skates
tumbling, and on bicycle that would
be marvellous for human beings to do
The Allies Official War Review
; showing the French and American
side by side as they push the Ger
: mans back from the Marine, and tht
Gaunont news with pictures equally
as interesting all go together to max,
one of the most attractive bills tina,
= has ever been offered TO the Bridge
port public and which will be shown
: at the Plaza theatre today and to
} morrow.

ORCHESTRA is
COSMOPOLITAN

America, has often been called the
ssmelting pot Of the world, The truth
OF this saying is strikingly illustrated
in the makeup of this country's old
est orchestral organizations the Phil
harmonic Society of New York, which
plays here at the State street Casino
on Saturday, November 8. There are
90 mon in this famous body of must
CLANS, and about 40 Of them were born
in this country. The rest hail from
every quarter of the globe, but they
have every one contributed the tai
ents and characteristics Of the coun-
try Of their birth to America, by be-
coming citizens of the United States.
1t Is popularity believed that our or
chestras are made up for the most
part of musicians Of German birth
and a few years ago that belief was
undoubtedly backed up by the facts
/ of the case, With the Philharmonic
today, however, this is far from true,
for of all the naturalized Americans
in the orchestra only IA came orig
inally from Austria and Germany.
The remainder of the players come
from nine different nations; Russia,
Italy, IIJlland, Bohemia, France, Po-
land, Norway, Denmark and ell
GUM. Nor is the American spirit
difficult to discover in all these adopt
ed children Of the United States. A
chance visitor to the special car which
brings them here to play would find
1t difficult to discover the origin OF
the different Northumberland little
group is a cosmopolis in itself. Even
their pastimes en- route from New
York to Bridgeport reveal the trade
mark, Made in America" Poker Is
the great Americanizer. And in
graver moods the players of the Phil
harmonic have all displayed their I'M
qualified loyalty to the country Oh
their choice. Although musicians are
rarely ranked ampng the wealthy
classes, the men who play for the
Philharmonic contributed last veal
more than $4,000 to the purchase OF
Liberty Bonds---an ample testimony
of their complete desire to be Ameri
cans---fiVst, last and always.

PARK
(ReView.)

Bridgeporters have howled for
ages for a real theatrical produc-
ton, be it comedy drama or tragedy.
and yet when one is handed to the
tickle public right on a golden plat
ter, so few turn out to see it, that we
who pass the door on Annie Oakley's,
wonder if we ought not to offer the
manager at least a little more than
the war tax.
Fair and Warmer may have been
on the bills for a long, long time. The
theme may be old and also overdone
but with all of that it loses none of
its sparkling humor, and while little
drawn out, is on the whole the same
refreshing farce that appeared on
Broadway over two years ago.
The cast that appeared at the Park
last night was an excellent one. Sager
Midgley as Billy Bartlett, the husband
who neither smokes, swears, drinks or
looks at women other than his wife,
and Marie Colebroke, as Blannie
Wheeler, the trusting, loving wife of
Jack Wheeler (Allen Hathes) who
leaves B1annie just once week to go
to the Mystic Shrine, received all the
| applause they could get from the au-
dience. You see, about 200 people
can't make much noise.
After Mrs. Billie Bartlett Gillian
Harne) has departed for the opera
with a former sweetheart, and Jacl,
Wheeler has gone to his Mystic
Shrine, Blannie and Billie revolt, and
decide to have a gay old time al
home. Both proceed to rather over
indulge in liquor and some of the
situations that follow are gloom kill.
| ers.
Finally Billie and Blannie are
caught by their respective wife and
husband in a compromising position
and then more exciting scenes follow
all Of which are explained away az
the final curtain falls.

LIBERTY LOAN SPECIAL
WAR TRAIN AT RIVES
Thousands Crowd to See Exhibit
of Big Guns.

One of the special features of the
Third Liberty Loan for the Eighth
Reserve District is a special train of
big guns and war relics, taken from
the battlefields of Europe. This
train appeared on schedule time at
Rives last Sunday afternon at 6
o'clock. There were two fat cars
bearing some machine guns and can
non, of British and French make,
all dismantled and retired from use.
In one of the coaches were photo
graphic prints and sketches of all
kinds of arms and ammunition at
present in use on the Western front.
F. d. Miller, Division Passenger
Agent of the I. @. Railway Com
pany, was in charge of the train.
Hon. DixS@C. Williams. of Chicago,
a very fam0es American orator and
patriot, was in charge of the war
material. Mr.. Williams is director
of Speakers Liberty Loan Campaign
Bureau, Washington and st. Louis.
He was the first speaker of. the
afternoon and was introduced by
former Mayor w. NJ. McNeill, of
Rives.
The accompanying speakers were
DR.. w. A. Garfield, president Center
College, Danville, KY; Capt. J. E.
Wheeler, Paducah, KY, now sta
toned at Camp Zachary Taylor;
Lieut.. Donald M. Ross, Winnepeg,
Canada, 18th Winnepeg Grenadier
Guards.
Some two or three thousand peo-
pie were present and assembled
around the train. This is very
conservative estimate. Others esti
mate a much larger number, but it
seemed that the people of all the
country round had turned out.
The people of Union City were
especially interested in this exhibit.
The presence of Mr.. Williams was
very pleasant surprise. 1t will be
remembered that one of the greatest
revival meetings ever held in Union
City, without exception, was con-
Quoted by Rev. Dixie" Williams.
This revival is one of the landmarks
in our history and is often referred
to. Mr. Williams was glad indeed to
meet a number of his old-time
friends and to see the demonstration
of patriotism. He said it looked more
like Chicago than Rives.

Sunday Afternoon Services.

Ushering in the Third Liberty
Loan drive special services were held
last Sunday afternoon in Union City
at the Methodist Church. Visiting
speakers were Hon. .Hardwig Peres,
president of the Board of Education,
Memphis, and Lieut.. Conrad, 87th
Division, Camp Pike, Little Rock,
Ark.
A large audience was present and
highly edited with two very inter-
esting and patriotic addresses.
In the afternoon the speakers were
taken as guests of Mr.. Harris Parks
and Mr.. Henry Head, of the county
Liberty Loan campaign, to Obion,
where speaking dates were filled
and where the party, viewed the
special Liberty Loan war train. Mes
danes H. o. Head and Geo. Eader
and Mr.. Eader were members of the
party.
