interests are striving to effect a COM
promise on the peace treaty and a,
the same time manipulating to pre-.
vent the treaty from becoming an is
sue in the next Presidential campaign
was made last night by Senator b.
rah. Republican. OF Idaho.

ceived a number OF bad cuts about
the hands as the result Of q fight
with a monster chicken hawk.
The hawk, an unusually large
black bird. has been killing farmers
chickens in the Milford neighbo.-

proved gunshy and too wary for the
hunters who laid for him.

up the wounded bird put up a fight
and finally had to be killed before
he could be touched with safety. He
had a wing spread Of four feet.

rated hlm version of the famous farce
that set the current style in sprightly
boudoir comedy, was offered as the
chief feature OF the photoplay bill
arranged for the first two days OF
this week at Crandalrs Knickerbocker
Theater yesterday. with Viola Dana,
pictured in the role of the youthful
bride who launched herself enthusi-
astically upon the joys Of honey.
/ incoming without first having made
sure that she was lawfully married.
1t will be recalled that this fast
moving study in lingerie drama and
the spirit Of adolescent adventure was
made one OF the hits OF the articu-
late stage by the cleverness of the
impersonations contributed in the
leading roles by Ernest Truck and
Edith Taliaferro. In the same roles
Miss Dana and Antrim Short indulge
In even a greater degree Of marital
ebullience by reason Of the wider
scope Of the camera in registering
all sorts Of activities. both indoors and
out. experimenting the excellent char
acterizations offered by the two
youngsters cast in the stellar roles,
are other splendid portrayals by a
supporting cast of unusual ability and
balance.
In the matter OF production. Please
Get Married" takes high rank among
current releases. The settings are
both massive and OF great pictorial
value and the outdoor views, which
the development OF the story permits
to be introduced, are masterpieces of
picturesque beauty. The opening
scenes reveal Miss Dana in a bath
ing suit OF unique design disporting
herself in the magnificent open-air
pool that forms only one OF the eff
fective shots" on an estate that
ahounds in gorgeous extravagances.
The photography is such as TO lose
none Of the splendor OF the many ex-
traordinary vistas.
In addition TO the major feature
the satisfying early-week bill at Gram
dalrs includes a variety OF selected
short-reel camera subjects and excel
lent orchestral accompaniment.

Moore's Garden - Paramount Art
craft super-prodaetfsa. @Every-
womnn.s
The news that walter Brownies
famous morality play "Everywoman. /"
had been made into q motion pic
quainted with this dramatic mas
terpiece. Its striking story and
manifold opportunities for spectacu-
lar scenic effects make IL admirable
screen material. The basis for q
magnificent cinema spectacle was
there. II remained for the direct
ing skill OF George c. Melford, the
acting ability of an unusually ex-
cellent cast. and fine artistry in
arranging the elaborate scenic ef-
fects to transform "Everywoman"
into the beautiful photoplay pre-
scented for the first time at Moore's
Garden Theater yesterday.
Here is a dramatic production
that 10 manifestly even better suit
ed to the screen than It is to the
stage. 1t requires an expansive
ness that the cramped quarters Of
the largest stage will not admit.
Quite probably the screen version
OF "Everywoman" has realized more
perfectly the authors conception of
his story than have all the produc-
tions of the play since its famous
premier in New York in 1911.
The title role is portrayed In
mastery style by beautiful Violet
Heming. the young actress who
made such favorable impression in
Three Faces East" and Under
Cover" Miss Heming lends the
dignity and universally to her in
depreciation of -Everywoman" that
the allegorical character Of the
story demands. The remainder OF
the cast is far above the usual In
merit including as IL does such
names as Theodore Roberts. Wanda
Hawley Monte Blue. Charles Ogle.
Raymond Hatton. Bebe Daniels and
FULLY Marshall. Mr.. Robert as
Wealth. Miss Hawley as Beauty,
and Mr.. Blue as Love are perhaps
the high spots in an Interpretation
that is uniformly excellent
As IL quite well known Every
woman" is in the main an allegori-
cal character.
The screen needs more pictures
like "Everywoman." A film Of this
kind makes the most skeptical ad-
init. the motion picture is an art. "
In these days when so many cheap
meaningless photoplays are wasting
our time. "Everywoman.' comes as
a great cleansing flood OF beauty.
To the director and to the pro-
ducers and to the rare good taste
or the individuals responsible for
its teauty. the motion picture pub
hc' in this instance is indebted for
a great production OF one OF our
greatest plays and a picture that
ranks with the screens best.
A musical score OF allurine beau
" and charm has been arranged
FOR the presentation and adds much
TO Its enjoyment Other surround
lngs OF the bill are likewise in
keeping.

SUPREME court
WILL HEAR CITY
DETENTION CASE
State High Tribunal to Deter
mine Whether Omaha Has
Legal Right to Ex-
anime Girls.

City Attorney Weaver will appear
before the state supreme court next
Monday to defend the city's plan of
committing women to the deten-
ton hospital for the cure of social
diseases.
A test case will be based on an
application for a writ of habeas
corpus on behalf of Margaret Davis,
who was sentenced by the police
judge to 20 days in Jail. examined by
the city physician and then ordered
sent to the detention hospital.
Direct to High Court.
This case has been taken direct
to the supreme court, without the
usual preliminary hearing in the
district court. During the last few
months District Judge Redick has
denied many applications for writs
of habeas corpus in similar cases,
and he suggested that a case should
be taken to>the supreme court, that
the city's authority might be def
initely established.
Attorneys for Miss Davis contend
that the city has no legal right TO
examine and detain her when she is
willing to be treated by her own
physician.

1T doesn't look real" she thought,
"Just like they put it on in the thea
tiers.
The next moment they had made
Burnham village and swung up to
the station. She sprang out, leaving
Monte to bring the bags, and ran
up the steps. The platform was de-
serted. They had missed their train
BY three minutes. Monte came up
valises in hand.
Its too provoking" she said
tearfully. We've lost i'll"
Never mind. Therell be another
soon I'll go and make sure, I'll keep
the car, we can always run ill.,"
mo, mol don't want 10 so in
the car" She said hastily. To go in
the intimacy of the car seemed to
her something indelicate. something
that couldn't be done. He ought to
have understood that!
She went up the platform toward
the red, sinister lights. The night
was hot and fiat. Each moment that
kept her from her purpose under
mined her resolution. Would she be
able to go through il? Even now she
was seeking the obscurity to avoid
chance encounter, and in mo-
ment they would have to enter the
crowded, lighted train together.
Up the platform came a shutting
step-a train hand, with smudged
lantern at his feet, smelling of rank
tobacco. What was Monte doing all
this time Everything he did irritated
her, even to the languid way in
which he returned, when he must
have known her impatience.
"Well?"
"Ten minutes, that's all"
She drew a breath of relief But
10 minutes passed and no answer
ing shock of steel.
Il thought you said 10 minutes3"
she said fretfully.
1T must be late"
Go and see-and please don't
take forever"
First the accident to the tire, then
the missing of the train, and now
the third delayl 1t was intolerable,

with women. 1t is l who have fol-
lowed where they would go"
The woman he loved was there
at his side. and yet something in
exorable interviewed between them.
Perhaps it was the mans further
vision that could not dwell on the
present before the Specter of COM
ing consequences. He saw the head
lines in the papers, the Haunting
colored stories, the opposition OF
photographs, the whole shrieking
clamor of prying public's salts
faction in a new scandal among
those it meanly envied and pitiless-
ly pulled down. Did she realize
what was coming?
I'VE are wounding each other-ir-
reparably," he thought. land yet
how can | tell her"
For she had done the thing he
had believed her incapable of doing.
1t was mad, it was theatric-but it
was from her heart. She was doing
it as a spiritual rebellion, and to
show him that in her awakened
love she was willing to sacrifice all
for him. How could he refuse that?
Suddenly he bent over and said
resolutely:
amy dear-it is a fearfully SER
ious moment. You are sure, there
is no doubt-you want to do this!
Just this way?
She looked at him in amazement.
Had he read her thoughtsl Yet, she
answered:
Yes, yes-I do-I'm sure"
Ever since they had fed from the
house she had but one figure before
her eyes-Andrew. When would
he return? Would he read her let
ter when it was handed to him by
Gregory at the door, mastering his
emotion before the servant as only
he knew how? Or would he go
with it to his room And then?
