visibility of joining the two institu-

"The Wilderness Trail" F"

The opera house has booked Tom
Mix, the daring William Fox horse
man of plain and hill, to appear on
Wednesday, August 9Th, in "The
Wilderness Trail" a photoplay from
the well-known book by Frank Will
liams which portrays delightfully."- the
life of the Canadian fur region. The
scenery alone in this play is declared
to be well worth seeing-a wild coun-
try of forests and deep SHOWS. In
this setting Tom Mix will perform
new exploits that will make the heart
of the spectator beat faster.
The old battle between love and
duty. in which Tom Mix more than
once defies death, centers round a
new leading lady, Colleen Moore, who
will surely be pretty to look at IN
her furs, enjoying long sleigh rides
in the snow behind a team of huskies,
and who will show how a real girl
acts when she is saved from death
and dishonor by strong man. Many
will recall Miss Moore as a petite
and charming actress. The scenario
and direction are by two craft mast
ers, respectively Chas. Kenyon and
Edward j. LIE Saint.

ment justifies such action"
Pointing out that the treaty shall
receive the approval Of the Council
Of the League" the president said it
would remain in force "only until,
upon application of one of the parties
to it, the Council Of the League, act
ing, if necessary, by a majority vote,
shall agree that the provisions OF the
covenant of the league afforded her
(France) sufficient protection"
Mr.. Wilson said he was moved to
sign the treaty by the ties of friend
ship binding the two countries and
the assistance France gave America
in it's struggle for independence.
Without this assistance, the president
said, it was seriously doubted WheIh-
er America could have won its lnde-
pendence, and added:
s.Nothing like it shall pay the
debt"
The text of the French treaty,
with the presidents message, was
received at the senate chamber as
soon as the session began at noon,
but was not Immediately laid before
the senate.
By unanimous consent, the French
treaty was laid before the senate IN
omen session at the request of Chair
man Lodge, of the foreign relations
committee.
At the suggestion of Chairman
Lodge, the treaty was referred to
the foreign relations committee with
out objection or discussion.

PRESIDENT SUBMITS FRENCH
TREATY TO THE SENATE.
President Wilson Asks for Early Ac-
ton by Senate on the Treaty.

Washington, July 29.-President
Wilson today transmitted to the SEN
ate the special treaty with France by
which the United States pledges it.
self to come Immediately to the aid
of that republic in the event Of an
unprovoked attack by Germany and
asked for it's early ratification,
"along with the greatly with Ger
many"
President Wilson 1uade no direct
references to the charges recently
made on the senate floor by Repubh-
cans that he had violated a section
of the pact, by not submitting it at
the same time that the treaty Of Yer
! sailles was presented.
Submission of the treaty came at
ter sharp criticism by Senate Repub-
licans, who, for several days had
openly charged on the senate floor
that in failing to present the draft OF
the pact along with the treaty OF Yer
sailles, the President had violated one
of the articles of the document. The
president did not follow his usual
custom of presenting the treaty In
person. He sent it to the capitol by
special messenger along with mes
sage explaining its object.
The Franco-American treaty is al
most identical with one signed be-
tween Great Britain and France. One
difference between the texts as made
public by the French foreign office,
to which attention has been called
that the United States pledges itself
to 90 Immediately" to the assistance
of France, while Great Britain soon
sents" to assist that country.
The president told the senate the
purpose of the treaty was to provide
assistance for France in case of un-
provoked aggression by Germany
without waiting for the advice of the
Council of the League Of Nations
that such action should be taken and
explained that it was to be an ar
rangement, mot independent of the
League of Nations; but under il"

Chicago, July 30.-While the
troops were preparing to march from
the armories riot broke out at Fif-
tieth and State street. Many men,
blacks and whites, clashed, firing
countless shots, the police report
said. Police reserves were hurried
to the scene.
Officials of the New York Central
railroad reported to the police to-
night that in the negro district the
blacks were firing on all passenger
trains. About the same time the po-
lice received word that rioting was
in progress across Thirty-frst and
Dearborn streets, near the heart of
the black belt.
Troops were ordered tonight to
various centers regarded as danger
centers. Request for the troops was
made to Adjt. Gen. Dickson by Mayor
Thompson to control the race riots.
The decision to use troops to patrol
the dangerous parts of the trouble
zone was taken tonight as a precau-
tionary measure after Adjutant Gem
eral Dickson had made round of the
South side negro district and its en-
vironments.
Situation Grows W>fse.
He said the situation was more Sc
rious than "a hours before. It was
not deemed necessary at the time the
mayor asked for the troops to pro-
claim martial law and whether Gov
ernor Lowden was prepared to take
the step was not made known. It
seemed to be generally believed that
placing the militiamen on patrol duty
would prevent further serious riot
ing.
