SIBERIA OUT 0 OF 7 :
BOLSHEVIK RULE

Failure of the Bolsheviki to con-
troll Siberia was partly due to the
fact that the leaders of the Provi-
sional Siberian Government have or
ganized cooperative unions" through
out the country which have welded
the people into one great family, hos
tile alike to the Establishments of radi-
calism and of the Germans.
Twenty nine of these bodies were
formed in villages and counties
shortly after the beginning of the
revolution, according to Already Pet
rolf, deputy Minister of Foreign af-
fairs of Autonomous Siberia, now in
Toxic, and number about 100000 con-
army officers of the former regime
living in the region between Ural and
lrkutsk. These organizations are Sc
cret and while each is separate and
Independent entity, all are united for
mutual benefit for the maintenance
of the Provisional Government, financ-
iIS and the transaction of business.
Mr.. Petroff declared it was owing
to the assistance of these societies
in providing arms, munitions, food
and clothing that the Czecho-Slovaks
have been so successful against the
Lenine-Trotzky troops. The people of
Siberia, he said, were anxious when
he left Siberia to see the country a
long the railway cleared of the Boil
sheviki and order and tranquility re-
stored by the Allies.
Contrary to inspired German re-
parts, Mr. Petroff stated, there is only
enc government in Siberia the Pro-
visional Government for Autonomous
Siberia This government he said, is
spported by the cooperative unions"
which have organized self-determinate
ct :, rnments in varius parts of the
country and these are now coordinated.

NEW BIRTH
In service only can find content,
In troubled times like these,
when life for me
Is but shadow of those other days.
And peace is but hope on land
a1S sea.
But in this life of service, now | see
A difference-less thought of self
alone;
A new affection for my fellow men
That in the care-free past was all
unknown.
And though sometime my heart is
sorely torn,
And all my being racked by bitter
pain,
BY helping those whose sufferings
are worse.
l find content and happiness again.

WHAT'S GOING ON IN THE WORLD OF THEATRES AND AMUSEMENT
PLAZA

More Trouble" Frank Keenan's latest film work was given initial show ing at the Plaza yesterday afternoon. It's something new-a sort of tragic farce in which MT. Keenan appears as the owner of a large iron works, and the story is based on the uncan- ny series of misfortunes which over take him through the escapades of his seemingly mild and retiring son.
 The story is told in six acts and there's something doing every second quick succession.
 "A Night in June" is the title of a very pretty and entertaining offering in the hands of Jack Lemley and company. There are five in the cast and they have splendid voices, each and every one of them. The set also was most beautiful and together with the harmony of the voices created much favorable comment.
 Sherman Wade had a monologue that was sharp on the edges and kept the laughs coming at a lively clip from the moment he stepped before the footlights.
 Whitneys Dolls, . novelty in which four very clever and capable perform CTS take part was a much appreciated feature of the bill and brought round after round of applause. Cooper and Lacey are a classy young couple and they can sing and dance in splendid fashion. The act is cleanly and neatly costumed also. A single reel Christie comedy anu travelogue in hand col1-ing that was extremely beautiful rounded out l the bill,

 Thomas Santschi, Fritzie Brunette and Bessie Eyton, appearing in the romantic drama, 'The City of Purple IDreams," attracts photoplay fans, for it develops a new type of theme in which the choice between sane living and anarchist1c beliefs is brought to the front. An all star cast chosen to play even minor roles, gives every side of the question the best possible portrayal.
