TOx'S TUEATER.

The attra ctions at Fox's tonight are four high class vaudeville acts, For Hubands Only," the big six reel Jewel production Fatty Arbuckle in Tho Walters Ball" Election returns will be given at Fox's as fast as received, patrons can come and enjoy the per formance and hear the results from the different contests.
 This sensational Jewel production For Husbands Only" is one of the cleverest and most original cinema productions yet presented on the screen. The story, like many of those which come from the Jewel studios, is remarkably unlike anything yet picturized. Lois Weber, the famous woman director evolved the drama from a magazine story, and there are number of ingenious twists that will start1e and delight those theater- goers who are fond of novelty. SeI- dom have the words Scenic in vestiture" been more applicable than In For Husbands Only Wonder full artistic sets, magnificent in their simplicity were designed for the in terior private theater of the million aire, where a portion Of the acton takes place, and in this action Miss Weber engaged the famous Denis

Of the celebrated players who will se seen in "The Great Love- the most notable are Robert Harren, splendid actor, who appeared in Intolerance" and Hearts of the World" Henry B. Walthall, a superior screen star; Lillian Gish, a, delightful actress; Geo. B'awcett, q national famed actor and others. Many of England's eele- brated society women will also be seen in "The Great Leve," Queen Alexandra, Lady Diana Manners, the most famous English beauty. Miss Elizabeth Asquith the Princess of

 This fact and the knowledge that Mr. Griffiths is the greatest director of stupendous motion pictures in the country, whose name is only asse- ciated with the highest achievements in the cinema art, makes the engage, ment of "The Great Love" note worthy one.

THE GREAT LOVE" COMING.

In following out the Fox theater policy of showing all the big motion picture spectac1es produced in America, Manager Mcdonald an- nounces that he has booked MT. D. w. Griffiths' latest spectacular produc- ton "The Great Love" and will pre- sent it at Fox's theater for three days, commencing next Monday.
 World famed as the producer of stu pendous motion picture spectacles, David Wark Griffith is responsible for many of the most celebrated cinema, triumphs known to the motion picture art. Without attempting to give a complete list of Mir. Griffith's picture productions, mention must be made of '"The Birth of a Nation" 'Intoler- ance" and his wonderful war picture, Hearts of the World" which was re- gently presented in New York with enormous success. In The Great Love-" Mir. Griffith shows the marvel eus transformation which the social as a result of the war, and coupled with this process is q fascinating love story which makes this production one of the most remarkable in point of attractiveness. ever produced any where.

 I think he heard me, for the next instant his face was as calm and ex- pressioniess as if a mask had been suddenly drawn across 1t. Only his eyes betokened a strain, and I looked I say in them a twinkle, which if forced, was an instance of remark able histronic power, so notural was it,

AMERICAN RED CROSS NOTES

 notified the latter that the Red Cross
 was prepared to advance s5O,00o for
 supplies if they could be obtained in
 Portugal and that country could trans
 port them to the island. Instructions
 to this effect were forwarded by the
 State Department to the American
 minister at Lisbon and a few days
 later the reply came back that for
 two weeks previous the Governor of
 Madeira had been unsuccessful in his
 efforts to have Portugal send relief
 to his people. Portugal said it had
 neither ships nor corn to spare.
 About this time the Navy Depart nnent received word from Admiral Niblack, on duty in that part of the world, confirming the report of the acute food shortage on the island and the necessity of prompt relief Ad- miral NibIack arranged with the Gov ernor general of Morocco to let the 1 hard pressed islanders have 500 tons
 of corn with the understanding that the amount would be replaced by the
 American Red Cross through ship ments from this country to France The Red Cross is endeavoring to ex- tend the replacement arrangements so that the lSld1lQ may get add1tlOnal supplies from Morocco.
 The United States shipping board provided the space for transportation of the corn and a Red Cross repre- , sentative is accompanying the cargo to assist in it's distribution. In the meanv hile arrangements have been

America has saved several thousand residents Of the Island of Madeira frsn threatened starvation. The story of how She came to the aid of the little colony, situated off the coast of Africa and cut from it's normal food
 supply through the ravages of Ger
 man submarines, unable to obtain any
 help from Portugal, it's mother coun- try, Is one of the most interesting of the smaller tales of the war.
 ACo-operatien on the part of the
 State, Department, Navy Departme ent, the French government and the American Red Cross made it possible A to get food to the islanders at a time when Portugal, because of an acute shortage at home Of both food and
 ships, was unable to render any assis- tance to its isolated subjects. As a result of negotiations 800 tons of corn
 have been shipped to the island by the Red Cross and 1900 tons addition al are now en route. The Red Cross Is now endeaYoring to make arrange n1ents to provide 1 1900 tons a month 10 maintain the population.
 Residents of the Island of Madeira, which prior to the war was visited by many tourists, depend entirely on the outside world for their food supply, consisting principally of corn, rice and codfish. The number of food ships reaching the Island has grown steadily less in the last year and people have had to practice tho most rigid econo- my to keep alive They had the money to purchase what they wanted { but other countries could not spare the ships to carry 1t to them. The 2 sinking Of A food ship bound from 8 Africa to the island about six weeks a ago brought the affairs of the colony 10 a crisis. They were facing starva- 5 ion.
 Word of their plight was sent to the
 Rod Cross headquarters in Washing < ton. Red Cross officials took the mat
