The death Of Nicholas, the former
ruler of Russia, seems to be fairly
well confirmed. According to re-
ports, he was shot by order of the
Bolsheviki government or one
branch of it, because of a fear that
plots for his restoration would be
successful, or at least make trouble
for the party in power. The
Czarina has asked that she and her
daughters may enter a convent.

to reports received at the state de-

to who will get what provisions there
are has reached a critical stage.
High-handed methods have been
adopted by the Germans. 1t is said. Sol

into the grain countries and the grain
requisitioned. The Russian peasants
are allowed only such amounts as the
soldiers decide they need.

"MANX-MAN" MAKES
ALLAN DALE WEEP

Allan Dale, veteran critic of the
drama, halls George Loane fuckers
production of Hall Gaines The
Manx-Man," as "one Of the finest
films of the year" In a review of this
Goldwyn- distributed picture, Mr.. Dale
says:
Il am glad 7 saw this picture. 1t is
extremely long, but it makes YOU feel
like Oliver Twist and want more
With it's beautiful views of the Isle Of
Man, and it's wonderfully human Hall
Caine story, The Manx-Man'' must
take its place as one of the finest films
of the year. I am no dcvOtee of the
Hall Caine cult, but The Manx- Man
as one of his early stories written be-
fore he started to take himself with
the deadly seriousness of his other
works, is admirable all the way
through. In the picture, all it's best
features are emphasized-esp
its pathos. This is the first film l
have viewed that brought the suspi-
ciOn of moisture to nv eyes
Moreover it is capitally acted.
Henry Alnley, q London matinee idol,
is less interesting than Fred Groves,
who, as Pete, gave one of the best
performances in the picture field to-
day. Mr.. Groves, with his remark
ably mobile features and his dramatic
sense, vitalized every scene in which
he appeared. Mr.. Ainley himself is,
of course, and extremely good actor,
but he seemed to be quite inferior TO
Groves. Miss Elizabeth RisdOn, as
Kate, gave a charming performances.
The entire cast, however, could be
starred; it was perfect. AS for the
cunning little baby, it was a marvel,
and every picture fan will be enthusl-
aStic.'

worth $4,000. There is no doubt that
well-trained dogs mako valuable
props for motion pictures but it is
just possible that Ireno may havo
placed the decimal point two or three
places too far to the right in placing
the valuation on this particular an
lmai, put at any rate, the dog now

unquestionably supply a real canine

MOVIES TO PUSH
WAR SAVING STAMPS

The thirty millions Or more people
who frequent the motion picture
theaters of the country each week will
be impressed deeply with the advan-
tages OF the governm ent's War Savings
stamps during the coming month be-
cause of the arrangements that have
been completed by the committee of
the National Association of the Mo-
ton Picture Industry, of which Adolph
Zukor, president of the Famous
PlayerS-LaSlly corporation, is chair
man.
With the return of Mr.. Zukor to
New York this week after conferences
with federal officials, he announced
the plans that would call for the con-
tinued cooperation of all the exhi-
bitors in the country and the entire
industry at large in the new drive for
war funds. Secretary McAdoo, of the
Treasury, expressed to the industry his
highest appreciation of the assistance
the motion picture industry gave the
government upon the occasions of the
first and second Liberty Loans and
stated that the united front that the
industry had presented when calls for
voluntary services have gone forth
has been a source of great inspiration
to all who are directly charged with
the conduct of the war.
Every motion picture theater will
be supplied with a series of attrac-
tive slides to be flashed upon the
screens all over the country calling at
tention to the advantages the people
will gain by the purchase of War Say
ings Stamps. During the last Liberty
Loan the committee of which Mr..
Zukor is chairman distributed over
10000 slides and had produced and
shown all over the country over 500,-
600 feet of film of patriotic appeal
The effectiveness Of this cooperation
was felt on every side and many laud-
atory letters were sent by officials to
the members of the committee. Be
sides Mr.. Zukor the committee con-
sists of w. W. Irwin, J. e. Brulatour,
Marcus Lowe and George X. Spoor.
