three times at the Opera House to-
day.
This most remarkable film tells all
about Colonel Roosevelt. 1t shows
in pictures the career OF the most
famous modern American from the
cradle to the White House and after
that. The film was personally au-
thorized by him and when the famous
statesman. explorer author-d diplomat
soldier died. he bequeathed the profits
that would arise from the production
of this great photoplay about himself
and the members Of his family to the
Red Cross.
Nobody can see this story of 1.-THE
Fighting Roosevelts" without being
moved. 1t is the kind Of a picture
that makes a man want to stand up
in his seat and yell to the top of his
lungs. 1t makes man see red-and
white and blue. 1t is a patriotism
breeder of the best kind.
There is no molly cooling" about
this production. There are no weasel
worded" acts and no nature taking.
Teddy" is shown as he was when he
appeared as the youngest member of
New Yoik's assembly. He is seen as
the daring police commissioner Of
New York who declared that none
but honest cops" could have jobs I'M
der him. He is seen resigning his Of
flee as assistant secretary of the
navy to go to war in 1898 and he is

regiment of Rough Riders charging
up San Juan hill. Then Roosevelt
comes to the White House through
the death of Mckinley and how he
gives the Kaiser his due is depicted
with startling emphasis.
Not only is Colonel Roosevelt him
self shown. but the manner of his
son QuentRs death in the World
War is depicted. Captain Archie and
Kermit are shown leading their men
over No Mans Land and Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt. Jr., is seen in the
very likeness of his father at that
age.
The Augusta people who were for
tunate enough to be at the per-
forrlances Of yesterday have had
something to talk about. There will
be three productions of the great
film today; the regular matinee at
80, a special matinee at 4 o'clock
for the children at a reduced price
and the evening performance at
100.
1t is safe to say that never before
has there been a film shown in Au-
gusta that has had as much adven-
ture, humor. romance. courage and
true Americanism as this.-Adv.

GREATEST SHRINKAGE
INTOBACCO TONNAGE
NOT IN KENTUCKY
Greatest Decrease In 1919 Tobacco Is
In Other States Than
Kentucky.

The latest statistics issued by the
bureau of crop estimates, with regard
to tobacco production in the United
States, are of peculiar interest to the
farmers of Kentucky at this season of
the year, in view of the speculation as
to the size of the crop and the proba-
BILE prevailing prices.
In 1918 the United States production
was 1,34S,019,000 pounds of tobacco,
which was about 25O,000,00O pounds
above the previous five year average.
The estimate for September 1, for the
United States is given as 1,279,012,000
which is a shrinkage of 56,040,000
pounds over the estimate for August
l, and decrease of approximately 61,-
100000 pounds under last years pro-
duction.
The acreage for all tobacco produc
ed in the United States announced to
114,5 per cent of last years crop and
the shrinkage in weight is due to pre-
NdllllB uHldNOIdDle WSdIueT through
out the tobacco districts. With re-
spect to the conditions in Kentucky,
the report shows that the condition of
tobacco September 1, was 72 per cent.
against n per cent. for the previous
ten year average, and that the esti-
mated production on September 1, was
24,490,0O0 pounds as against 427,5O0,
900 for last year, shrinkage of ap-
proximately 100000 pounds.
On August 1, the estimated produc-
ton was 442,17S,O0O pounds, showing
a shrinkage of approximately 10000
600 pounds during the month of. Au-
gust. 1t is therefore, plain that the
greatest shrlnkage in tonnage is in
other States than Kentucky, since
Kentucky, according to present esti-
mates, can account for only 100000
pounds of the OOOOO-pound de-
crease.

Steel MILLS OPERATE
DESPITE Big STRIKE
Many Men Reported Returning to
Work In Steel Plants-Pickets
Are Now at Work.

Pittsburgh, September rs. - The
somber marks Of a protracted indus
trial struggle were settling upon the
Monongahela Valley today.
AS far as permitted by police reg
ulations, picket lines began to appear
about the big steel mills. From in
side the plants came the noise of
work, while outside men strolled thru
the streets or loitered about their
homes, obviously idle. Mounted state
police, full cartridge belts about their
waists, rode thru the streets. Armed
deputies stood on guard about the
plants. Crowds were not permitted
to gather.
From the plants came word that
men were returning to work in in
creasing numbers. The steel compan-
les regarded the situation as exceed.
ingly favorable, but the tenseness OF
a big struggle hung over the valley.
Meanwhile, strikers are hoping for
aid from Washington in their fight
against state police. John Fitzpat-
rick, chairman of the steel workers
will present their side of the controv-
ersy to the Senate committee today.
