On the Screen
Wallace Reid Is a Tramp and
Tom Logan a Thriller
in Two New Pictures

Wallace Reid is appearing at the
Strand this week in a picture called
The Source" The story is different
from any Of Reid's recent vehicles, and
III the first two reels at least he was
an entirely different Wallace Reid-his
hair is rumpled, he wears a scr,lbby
beard, he looks dirty and he is drunk
ard.
But he soon became shaven and
shorn and sober-in short. "a clean
Ilmbed young hero" and he married
the heroine. But in spite of his virtu
Gus transgressions he is forgiven for
beng handsome and everything be-
cause OF his convincing performance in
the early part of the picture.
1t is easy for a handsome leading
man to be convincing as a handsome
leading man. 1t is not so easy for
hlm to be so as rum-soaked derelict.
Reid is Van Twiller Yard, down
and-outer, who has been shanghaied
INTO logging camp and made to work
he reforms. falls in love with Svea
Nord, VINO in real life is Ann Little,
and finally becomes president of a
pulp company or something.
Raymond Hatton has one of those
weird characters to portray which he
does so we'll. He is Pop Sprowl. a prv-
ing old auntie Of village postmaste
Theodore Roberts is seen to advan
tage in small part.
The real feature of the programme is
the tabloid opera "RigoIetto," which
is being presented with Ernest Davis
as the Duke of Mantua, Yon Collignon
as Rlgoletto, Alys Michot as Gilda and
Ada Poll as Maddalena.
The comedy is m amusing Flagg
satire called "Hick Manhattan" Peggy
Hopkins is starred.
The overture is the "MarcI,e Slav.'
There is horn solo, meditation" by
a. Geithe, and an organ solo from
Queen Of Sheba."
At the Academy Tom Mix is seen in
a new picture called "Mr. Logan, U.
In the opening scene Jim Logan is
seen riding his horse off bridge and
into the water, fifty feet below. Afaar
that for five reels there are no anti
cllmaxes. Tom Mix can do everything
tnat all the other screen acrobats can
90, put together. 1t is too bad that
ne is not little more romantic look
ing, but then you can't have everything,
and he seemed to suit a beautiful girl
named Suzanne, who is really Kathleen
Connors.
The people who play the various
characters in the picture seem to think
nothing Of risking their lives in all
sorts of ways, and unless one dies of
heart failure before the picture is over
he is going to enjoy it tremendously
1T is Western drama in its most thrill
ing form. Fl. o.

"My mail has been filled with indig-
nant letters from women who think we

cause Of his socialistic and pro- Ger
man proclivities," said Mrs. Morawetz.
Here is one letter | received to-day:
Mr.. Hillquit does not represent the
women Of this city or Of this state.
We are loyal citizens, who have given
and are giving of our time, money and
strength to support our country in the
time of need, and we wish to have
nothing to do In any way with a man
who does not express an equal loyalty.
"We are going to have Frederick C.
Tanner to represent the Republican
party and Senator Robert Wagner the
Democratic party, SO if we did not show
an equal fairness to the Socialist or
ganization it would be very question
able proceeding. We regard Mr.. Hill
quit as an authority on the particular
question"

which would allow two-cent stamp to

ance with the acts. Tho violation Of
the law should, Of course, be made
serious offence"
Mr.. Dodge emphatically denied Mr..
kilroe's suggestion that corporations
contributed through their officials.
THAT Is absurd" he said. "These
officers and directors Of corporations
didn't give the money as corporation
matter; they gave 1t simply as citizens,
They may have been mistaken, but they
wanted what they thought was good
government"
Would you be surprised to know
that a president of corporation was
asked for contribution and gave q
check for $1,000?'
THAT Is the case | saw in the news
papers?"
"No. this is another one. This was
returned with the remark that it
couldn't be used unless the president
gave it as his personal check-which
was DONE"
II think" replied Mr.. Dodge, chat
it would be foolish to do that-it is
almost inconceivable for concern to
do anything like that"

Evening Mail" was questioned yester-
day about the "Sulzer articles' pub
llshed In that newspaper just before
