MOVIES HERALD
AMERICAN GOODS

American manufacturers, eager to
take advantage of wartime condi-
lions in Peru to introduce their goods,
are utilizing the motion picture thea
tres to induce Peruvian women to
buy made in America" goods.
Motion picture theatres are numer-
Gus in Peru. and there are few towns
without at least one. A "vermouth,"
or matinee performance is given from
6 or $3.50 in afternoon to 7:45 or 8
9 to 1880 o'clock. The first is the
more popular in the capital because a
late dinner hour, which is the rule in
Peru1permits society to attend. An
additional matinee is given on Sun
days, starting at $3.50 o'clock. The
average seating capacity of Peruvian
picture theatres is 400. The custom
of taking afternoon tea is universal,
and one tea room in Lima entertains
its patrons with motion pictures from
until o'clock.
In the best theatres many Of the
slides are distinctive and carefully
prepared in natural colors, and the
Americans are taking advantage of it.
In the course of month this adver-
tisement will probably be seen by
from 5000 to 10000 persons. The
Department of Commerce says that
care is being taken to have all read
ing matter translated into idiomatic
Spanish.

RESIDENTS SUPPLY
GERMAN MINISTER

Mexico City, Feb. 25-Germans in
Mexica, especially at the sapital, are
supplying H. Won Eckardt the Ger
man minister here, with the sinews of
war for the extensive propaganda
campaign that is being carried on by
the legation, both through newspa-
pers and private agents. There has
been much speculation as to what
means the German minister used to
secure funds to maintain the larage
legation, his sumptuous home and the
Teutonic propaganda since he was cut
off from the fatherland, but it is now
learned that German banks, business
houses and individuals are buying his
notes on the Imperial government.
The claim has been advanced re-
peatedly that Won Eckardt deprived
of the use of neutral diplomatic
| wires in communicating with his gov
eminent, was keeping in touch with
the Berlin foreign office through let
tiers carried on Spanish ships to the
gulf of Biscay, whence they were sent
by submarine to Berlin. It was stated
that he was being supplied with funds
| via this route, but the enormous sums
being spent by the legation seemed to
make this claim untenable. Despite
denial by the Spanish line involved, it
is believed here, that Won Eckardt's
| letters are being carried on its ships
that messages from the legation, sent
in plain envelopes to reliable ad-
| dresses in Spain, ultimately find their
way to Berlin by way of Switzerland

ECHOES FROM PAST

Joe Choynski, in his prime the best
Interchangeable in the ring, was the
only man who ever sent Jack Johnson
to dreamland, with the exception of
the little Havana affair in which Jess
Willard won the championship. 1t
was seventeen years ago today that
the veteran and the young negro
hooked up in the latter's home city,
Galveston, Tex. This was the smokes
first important battle. He was then
only twenty and his only ring bouts
had been with fourth-raters in Spring
field, Ill. and Chicago, where the late
George Sile, the famous referee, had
taken Jack under his wing and given
him a start. In the fight with
Choynski on Feb. %, 1901, johnson
was knocked out in the third round
Race feeling was strong in the Texas
seaport, and the defeat of the big ne
gro was hailed with wild enthusiasm
That was the only knockout ever reg
istered against the future champion
In 1906 Jack lost the decision tt

SEA FISHERMEN
TO BE LICENSED
OR PAY PENALTY
Fine of $1,000 and Imprison-
ment for One Year for Fail
ure to Secure Permit.

Hartford, Feb. 25.-Salt water fish
ermen, engaged at any period of the
year, in the commercial distribution
of all varieties of salt water fish,"
must be licensed. In fact the Federal
Food Administration for Connecticut
pointed out today that such fisher
men should have applied to United
States Food Administration, License
Division, Washington, D. c." and
should have secured their license,
for which no. charge is made, by Feb
ruary Is. The Presidents proclama-
ton regarding the salt water fisher
men was issued January 10 and the
food administration officials in Con-
necticut issued warning through the
newspapers late in January that all
fishermen should get licenses under
penalty of $4,000 and Imprisonment
for one year.
Judging from the complaints and
| inquiries that are coming into the
food administration office daily, many
fishermen have not complied with the
provisions of the Presidents proclaim
alton and the orders of the food ad.
| ministration, which is preparing tc
proceed against any unlicensed sal
water fisherman who engages in the
business for profit or who offers his
catch for sale rather than for his OWL
personal use. Wholesale fisherman
have been licensed since November II
and their licenses will suffice. Like
wise, paid employees of fishing firm'
do not require any license other thai
that held by their employers. Thu
sea food which comes under the regu
lations, which the food administrator
will shortly issue, includes all sal
water fish, menhaden, crustaceans
and shell fish, such as oysters, crabs
Holsters, and clans. The control givel
the food administration will enabl
the fishermen to increase thei
catches and will give them opportun
tiles to broaden their operations.

BRITISH PROTECT
PLACES OF PRAYER

London, Feb. 25-Contrasted with
the German proclamation threatening
punishment upon the women and
children of Udine, Italy, if they fail
ed to work in the fields for sixteen
hours every day, under German dom
nation, the order issued by the Brit
ish commander to the people of Jeru-
salem after the capture of that city,
shows the different manner in which
the Entente and the Central Powers
wage war. The British order reads:
"It is my desire that every person
should pursue his lawful business
without fear of interruption. Furth-
ermore, since your city is regarded
with affection by three of the great
religions of mankind, and its soil has
been consecrated by the prayers and
pilgrimages of the devout for many
centuries, therefore be it known that
every sacred building, monument,
holy spot, shrine, pious bequest, or
customary place of prayer, will be
maintained and protected according
to the existing customs and beliefs of
those to whose faiths they are sa-
cred.'

WAGNER BROKE IN
CAME ON FALSE
PRETENCES

Honus L, surnamed The Great,
Duke of Pittsburgh, other John Hen
ry Wagner, the Flying Dutchman,"
was born in Carnegie, Pa, Feb. "a,
1874, and a little easy figuring shows
that he has just passed his forty
fourth milestone. He is the Methu-
sala of the game, which nobody will
deny, but he is still able to give a
pretty good account of himself. Hans
has been one of the leading swat art
lists ever since he joined the National
League away back in 1897, when the
Louisville Colonies, then in the big
show, engaged his services as an out
fielder. OF course, Hans is no long
err what he used to was.
Wagner broke into the pastime I'M
der false pretenses. His brother Al
was ball player and after making
something of reputation in Penn
sylvania, he received an offer from
Canton, o. He had just accepted il
when Mansfield, o., in the same
league, offered him a job. Al told
Hans to go to Mansfield and pose as
the Wagner to whom the offer had
been made. Honus followed this ad-
vice, but the manager of the Mans
field club soon got wise to the fac
that Hans was a pretender. He wa:
hard up for a third sacker, however
and he decided to give the young mar
a chance. His first league game wa!
against the Canton team, Of whic' hi
Brother was a member. Al induced
the Canton pitcher to give Hans
chance by letting him hit, and Honu
made two hits.
In the ninth inning-which i
where we always reach the critica
point in a baseball story-Mansfiel
was three runs to the bad. Mansfield
got three men on bases, and it wa
up to Honus. This time Toots Bar
rett, the Canton pitcher, frightened u
and put everything he had in the pill
Hans struck the first one over
mighty swat and sent it over tn
fence for a homer, bringing in fou
runs and winning the game for Mans
field. Hans made good right alonl
and a little later he was engaged a
captain of the Adrian, Mich, clul
Inconsistencies caused him to thro
up this job, and he went back to h
native Pennsylvania and signed u
with Warren. in the Iron and o
League, finishing the 1895 season wit
Steubenville, in the Tri-State circui
In 1897 he went to Paterson, N ]
and the next year to the Louisvil
club, owned by Barney Dreyfuss an
managed by Fred Clarke.
