SUNDAYS BIG BIZ .

When the "fu' lid was clamped on
Bemidji, one of the big features be-
ing advertised for the Rex was that
celebrated. dramatic actress Emily
Stevens in kildare of storm. The
booking Of this noted Metro feature
was continued In force and will have
its showing Sunday.
The story is that of young girl
who is compelled to marry a man, on
account Of his social standing and
wealth, whom she does not love- He
is of the brutal, domineering kind
who believe that women are merely
the toys of men and he treats her ac-
cordingly parading her before his
friends on account of her rare beauty
of which he is very proud-as he
would a blooded horse or a favorite
dog. e
He drives her to utter unhappiness
and for consolation she turns to the
friendship of a yaung doctor and his
mother-love develops between the
young people and appalling conse-
quences result. The plot is cleverly
handled and is Of sustaining interest
deeply dramatic and tenderly ro-
mantle. ri
Another Chaplin film will be
shown as an added feature.

production which the documents In
the possession Of the governments
bureau Of information made possible

COMING TO ELKo

When D. w. Griffith produced
1.-THE Birth Of a Nation the world
was amazed and said the limit Of
melton picture possibilities had been
reached. When his latest triumph
t''IIearts of the World was revealed
words failed to express both public
and critical opinion. 1t is the subs
lime achievement Of the age, realiz-
ing possibilities that are almost be-
.yond conception and stamps D. w.
Griffith as a veritable wizard Of dra-
matte art in pictures.

GAINS OF ALLIES
 DURING 24 HOURS MOST IMPORTANT

London, July 31-Although the Allied gains during the last 24 hours may seem small, some of them had been exceedingly significant, tele- graphs Reuters correspondent at the American front in France. The chief feature of the recent fighting, he says, is the French advance from Oulchy le Chateau, which carried the villages of Grand Rozoy and Cugny, and swept the Germans off the butte of Chalmont. This hill was a center of enemy resistance along the western side of the salient.
 Germans guns situated on the Butte Of Chalmont had been able to rake the Soissons Chateau Thierry road al- most as far as Villemontoire and hurl cross fire on the advancing French and American troops in the valley of the OurcQ. The French now are able to harass from this hill the enemy S retirement and should be able to clear the angle between the Soissons Cha teau Thierry road and Oulchy le Chateau and Fismes and bring much needed assistance to the Americans ir the village of Seringes.
 It will be a, costly task to take the Nesles forest, but there are alterna- open ground to the westward. The railroad, which is the key to the Ourcq valley, is in Allied hands.

J. s. WAR COST
 90 p, c. GREATER
 THAN ENCLAND'S

Washington, July s1 - Americas s war expenses now are running about 50 per cent. higher than those of Great Britain, it was shown today by comparison of treasury reports and a newly issued British financial state ment. Owing to the shorter time the United States has been in the war, however, her national war debt is only one-third as large as that of Great Britain, and the individual bur den of taxation in this country now is only about one half as much as it is in England.
 Although the United States has largely superseded Great Britain as the financial reservoir on which the other Allied nations draw, the aggre gate of such loans by this country still is one-fourth less than Great Britain's.
 The monthly cost of the war to the United States now is about S1,500,- 100000, including loans to Allies, while Great Britain's expenses are running in the neighborhood of $1,- o00,O00,O00 a month. The United States is spending about $50, 100000 a day, or more than $2,000, 900 an hour. The nations war debt now is a little less than s12.500, ,oO0, 900, as compared with Great Britain's $Ss.676. .ooo. 900.

U-BOAT HIT COOK
 IN 5-HOUR FIGHT
Only 1 of 200 Shots Got Aboard Tanker Which
 Fired Back.

New York, July 31-A tanker which arrived at an American port last night brought a cook with his leg shattered by shrapnel to prove the story of a f1ve-hour fight with a submarine 600 miles off Sandy Hook Friday after noon.
 The submarine fired about 200 shots at the tanker. The tanker with it's four-inch gun sent some forty back. Before the fighting ended the range was short enough for the four-inch weapon to become dangerous and it put shots very close to the German that the tanker with all speed sought to escape.
 The submarine vas eight miles off about 2 P. M. Frinay when it was first sighted. It gained on the tanker and sought to head her off from the land. The German opened fire with two heavy guns and a lighter one. Wirelessing for help and banging away with it's small gun the tanker turned to the west and ran until it lost the submarine. Then it resumed it's course to land without further trouble.
 The cook whose leg was smashed by the shell which broke over the tanker was the only one on board in- jured in the encounter.
