Now whose going to be nrite enuff to ask the ferst question?
 Wich Puds Sinllins waved his hand, and Miss Kitty sed, Very well Charles. wat is it?
 Wich is the most intelligent, g. flee or a snail? sed Puds,
 I am unable to SC how that concerns enyth1ng that I've bin speaking about to you, sed Miss Kitty, And she did ent anser it, properly not knowing for sure, and Sam Cross waved his hand to ask one, saying, Do muskesters get eny plezzure out of biting you, or do they jest do it because its their na- ture?

LYRIC

That Manager George Arvine of the Lyric theatre is conversant with the New York theatrical situation and is ready and alert to take advantage of the early releases of big plays for the Poli Players is proven by the an- nouncement that Edward Peples lat est production ''The Cabin In the Hills" will be presented all this week beginning with a matinee this after noon.
 Edward Pep1e is well known in Bridgeport where three of his best plays, "The Lttlest Rebel'', "A Pair of Sixes," and ''The Prince Chap" have been shown many times. '"The Cabin in the Hills" is conceued by those who pay more than superficial attention to the art of the spoken drama as his best effort in a serious way. In this drama of today, of light and shade, of comedy and pathos, that brings first smile and then a tear, MT, Peple shows hrs keen un- derstan ding of human nature and his power to put Into dramatic shape a story thrilling in dramatic power and one that is vastly different from most plays that have for the central figures the eternal triangle
 'FThe Cabin in the Hl1ls," has for a cast ten players and what is better still from the standpoint of the au- dience, each of the characters is vel drawn and will give every member of the Pon players sufficient opportun- ity to bring forth the complimentary comment of all their auditors An other attribute of ""The Cabin in the Hills" is the opportunity given the scenic artist for lavish paintings for the scenes range from the home of wealth in New York to the snow crest mountains of Nevada where the char acters are picturesque and true to the country where men love and hate will an equal intensity.
 Briefly +fT.he Cabin in the HfTls," il a stirring swiftly moving drama tha carries punch in all it's four acts anC also contains a moral that will affec | alike the matron or the young gir | just starting out in life.

Don't take our word for it but see the picture and you will agree to this fact

POLES

Special arrangements have been made by the management of Polfs theatre to handle the immense crowds which surely will flock to see David Wark Griffith's greatest and latest photodramatic sensation ''The Great Love" in which Lillian Gish, Robert Harron, Rosemary Walthal, George Fawcett, George Siegmann, Maxfield Stanley Rosemary Theby, Gloria Hope and scores of England's Royalty and nobility are featured.
 MT. Griffith spent many months in England and Franco during the past year and on his return to this coun- try, he produced ''Hearts of the World" which was presented with enormous success in New York.
 The story deals with a young American who enlists in the Canadian army when he reads of the German atrocities in Belgium and goes to England. While training near Lon don he meets and loves a charming Australian girl who reciprocates his passion.
 Many famous English society wom- en assist in the development of the story as workers in hospitals and munitions factories, and in this re- spect the photoplay is said to be one of the most remarkable ever produc- ed.
 In addition to the great photo play there will be an unusually bril- liant vaudeville bill which will in- clude such premier numbers as Cath erine A1iley, the funniest and most original of all comediennes on the stage. Billy Burke, in a sensational comedy sketch entitled "Motorboat- ing" Wardy De Wolf original singing, dancing and talking act and the Daw- son girls.

[Staf Correspondence

.., WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-The fuel ad-
ministration in an order to all state
administrators to-day directed that no
new local fuel regulations be promul-
gated until they have received the off,
cial sanction Of the Federal fuel off,
cials. The reason for. the order is to
be found in numerous complaints
reaching Washington against injustices
and inequalities developed through diff
fcrent interpretations of the fuel ad-
ministration regulations. Moreover, it
is charged in many protests reaching
DR.. Garfield that local administrators
are exceeding their proper authority
in the PRONUNCIATION of special local
orders issued under the plea of emer-
gency conditions.
IN the order to state administrators,
made public to-day, the fuel admins
tration points out the necessity Of uni
form regulations, as far as that is
practicable, throughout the entire
country. The order reads:
Garfield's Order
GAS a result of various restrictive
fuel administrators in certain states,
we are receiving many complaints of
discrimination between different states
and inequalities in the requirements
of neighboring communities. After
careful consideration, United States
Fuel Administrator Garfield has con-
cluded that regulations in every state
should in general be uniform with
those promulgated by Washington.
This does not absolutely prohibit ad-
ditional local regulations where they
are necessitated by extraordinary local
emergency; but in that case we be-
lieve that you should first consult and
secure the sanction of the local au-
thorities, either the Mayor of city or
others responsible for local government
and wire us for confirmation.
eve particularly desire to secure
uniform regulations for the whole
country at the earliest possible date,
not later than February 6, having espe-
cially in mind conformity with national
orders for lightless nights and orders
restricting churches, theatres and other

Nip Plot to Wreck Mill
Explosion Planned in Flour
Plant; German Is Held
Especial CorresDondence7

BINGHAMTON. N. Y. Feb. 2.-Fol-
lowing what is believed to have been
an ingenious attempt to wreck the Ell
more Milling Company plant at On
conta through an explosion of -four
dust, Otto Mathes, native of Ger
many, has been arrested here by a
United States deputy marshal on a
technical charge of being an enemy
alien travelling without a permit.
Mathes, who was an employe of the
mill, complained of toothache and
said he would go out for twenty min
utes. He did not return, and subse-
quently it was learned he was prepar-
ing to leave town.
Immediately after he had left the
mill the foreman prepared to start a
grinding hopper. CHANGING to throw
the beam of flashlight into it, he saw
glistening object, which proved to
be 12-gauge shell.
1t is supposed the plan was to have
the metal strike a spark which would
have caused an explosion of -four dust,
wrecking the mill, and thus slightly
reducing the nations -four supply.

'Closing Sufficiently Drastic"
"In general, we feel that the United
States Fuel Administrators order Of
January II is sufficiently drastic, and
that further extensions should not be
attempted unless absolutely required
by local emergency and substantially
supported by local sanction. You
should also carefully consider whether
the good to be accomplished by addi-
tional local restrictions will be more
than Offset by the damage and incon-
venience to the public"
WASHINGTON, Feb. 2.-Railways to-
day received instructions from the rail
road administration to take every ad-
vantage of the usual Sunday industrial
shutdown and the forced suspension
Monday under the fuel economy order
to move coal to the big consuming CEN
tres in order to accumulate small re-
serves against possible emergencies. If
the railroad situation improves as re-
suit of the two days relief from new
shipments, and coal gets to markets in
UlSReE QUANTITIES, Cne MONDAY Closing
order probably will be revoked.
Railroad administration officials to-
day had under consideration the i'm
position of other embargoes than those
now in effect officially on three Eastern
trunk lines as substitute measures for
the fuel economy order. Some further
restrictions on acceptance of general
freight may be made, it was intimated,
although the principal determining
factor will be the, weather in the-next
few days.
Little hope was gathered from to-
days weather. In Northern New York
State it was so cold that engines, stop
ping to take water, froze to the tracks,
and it took five other locomotives to
pull them loose. In West Virginia the
overfiowing of streams hampercd the
hauling of empty cars to the mines and
the withdrawal of loads The Ohio
River, although not rising, was threat
ening on account of the ice flow, and an
extension of this condition to other
rivers of the Middle West was the
greatest fear of government railroad
officials
