FOX'S THEATER.

Mrs. Charlie Chaplin, in Borrowed
Clothes, a stunning six-reel produc-
ton, headlines a big show at Foxs
for the last half of this week
One little wedding sometimes stirs
up an awful lot of rumpus. Take the
case Of Mildred Harris and Charlie
Chaplin. The Jewel star and the
comedy star were married a short
time ago. Now there is lots of ex-
element throughout the film world.
The particular manifestation is d
run on the production Borrowed
Clothes" which is the latest picture
featuring the little star who has be-
come Mrs. Charlie Chaplin, Every
picture fan, from all accounts, is
anxious to see the comedians bride,
even though many Of them have seen
her previously in many big produc-
ttons. In Borrowed Clothes the
wife Of the million dollar comedian
appears this time in a film whose title
suggests q remarkable idea, and
which is known to show her as a
bride. Miss Harris makes q delight
full little figure at the climactic mo-
ment dressing in the garb of a bride,
with a crown of orange blossoms on
her pretty head. Patrons of Fox's
therefore have realistic vision of how
she must have appeared on that
epOchal occasion when she marched
to the altar with the inimitable Char
lie last October 23rd. AT the Broad
way theator in New York city, Dor
rowed Clothes broke the daily rec
ord of this theater three days in sue
cession. The drawing power was aug
mented by the fact that Charlie
Chaplin himself was also on the pro-
gram in shoulder Arms. The re-
ception given Borrowed Clothes by
the film critics of New York was no
less hearty than that given by the
public. Every critic. voting the new
Mildred Harris film a smashing sue
cess. The surrender of the German
fleet to the allied nations also was
the recipient of much applause last
evening, when innumerable of the de-
testable u boats were seen coming to
their m mornings with the German naval
ensign flying for the last time from
their turrets Ali Rajah, the mental

GERMAN NAVAL MEN

Amsterdam, Nov. 20 (Correspon-
attempt of officers of the German

The death of the doomed eighty thou

CONSIDER HANDLING POWDER.
Meeting Of Mining Men in This City
by State Explosive Inspector.


Edgar S. Elder, government explo-
sive inspector for Idaho, has requested
the various mining. companies of the
district to send representatives to
meeting called by him at 500 p. m.
Thursday, August 20. The meeting
will be held in the probate court room.
The purpose of the meeting as given
in letter from Mr.. Elder, together
with the persons desired to be in at
tendance, follows:
"This meeting is for the purpose of
agreeing upon a uniform system of the
distribution, use and storage of pow
der and Of the keeping of the records
concerning the same. 1t is important
that the powder magazine men and
persons holding foreman's licenses VIII
have the actual charge Of the distribu
ton and use Of the powder in the var
ious mines be present at this meeting
81 trust that the active manager OF
superintendent of your company viii
be present and also the powder men as
suggested in this letter"
Mr.. Elder states that he had con
ferred with superintendents of the mi
ming companies and that the meeting
is called upon their suggestion.

EXCHANGE MAY SUSPEND.
Spokane Brokers Can Not Pay the
Proposed War Tax.

The war revenue bill that is soon to
be presented to congress and which
will no doubt pass without extensive
levies an annual tax Of
$3.50 on all memberships in stock ex-
changes throughout the country, and
apparently makes no distinction be-
tween large and small exchanges. AS
a result if the provision as now franz
ed becomes a law, the Spokane stock
exchange, and probably all other ex-
changes in the west, with the possible
exception of that at San Francisco,
will be forced out of business. The
war has already greatly reduced the
business of the exchanges, as well as
having drawn heavily upon the ex-
change membership. Under these cir
cumstances the prospect of paying
$3.50 per year for the privilege Of at
tending daily call that develops no
business is not viewed with favor by
Spokane brokers' At the meeting OF
the exchange Monday, with one ex-
ception, every member present ex-
pressed the opinion that If the bill be-
comes a law as now framed, there is
nothing for the exchange to do but
suspend until the close of the war
The brokerage business is non-essen
tial, and the maintenance of stock ex-
changes Is constant inducement to
speculate with money that otherwise
might be invested in Liberty bonds
and war savings stamps. Thus 1t IL
possible that there is method in ex'
acting the heavy tax on members o.

RED CROSS STORE.
An Emporium Where Every Want
May Be Supplied.

May Be Supplied.
Under the energetic and tireless
supervision of Mrs. Harry McAllister,
the Red Cross store in the Gyde-Tay-
lor building is rapidly accumulating
large and varied stock of secondhand
goods which are offered at figures
that appear trifling compared with
wartime prices. The stock, to which
is ever being added new and attract
i've lines, includes ready-to-wear clo-
thing, household furniture, cooking
utensils, books in great variety, musi-
cal instruments Gone cabinet organ),
percolators, gasoline stoves, lamps,
sofa pillows, glassware, dishes. ETC.,
etc. Through donation by local lum-
Der dealers and volunteer service of
carpenters, the room has been equip
ped with counters and shelving, and
the stock will soon be arranged in or
derlv display. The articles offered
are all servceable and people will find
1t to their advantage to visit the Red
Cross emporium in these days of high
prices and forced economy. Every
dollar goes to the Red Cross, which Is
in itself sufficient inducement to at
tract public patronage. Also those
having articles of the class mentioned
or others not in use are urged to send
them to the Red Cross in order that
they may be turned to the benefit OF
the organization that commands the
support of every American.

o. w. DAVIS, REPUBLICAN
CANDIDATE FOR GOVERNOR.

Two years ago d. w. Davis, of
American Falls, came within 572
votes of beating Moses Alexander.
The significance of these figures is
found in the fact that in the same
election Woodrow Wilson carried
the state by 14,494., This means
that Davis, republican candidate,
was in round figures $4,000 votes
stronger than Alexander, his dem
ocratic opponent. measured by the
majority given the democratic
candidate for president. The man
that made such a phenomenal run
in presidential campaign when
the people were hypnotized and
stampeded by the specious slogan,
"He kept us out of war;" should
certainly be a winner now when
the utter insincerity of the demo-
cratic campaign cry has been ex-
posed. That's one reason why the
republicans of Idaho are going to
make ID. w. Davis their standard
bearer again this year. Mr.. Davis
arrived in Wallace yesterday eve
ming and conferred with promin-
ent republicans during his brief
stay. leaving on the train this
morning. In spite of the noise be-
ing made by nonpartisan leaguers
in south Idaho, he expresses great
confidence that he will be nomin-
ated and that the republicans will
carry Idaho with an old-time ma
jority.
