At the Majestic.


Among the scenario writers of
the country there is none with
greater technical or artistic skill,
probably, than c. Gardner Sullivan,
head of the Thomas H. Ince seen
ario staff in California, who wrote
Wagon Tracks," the new Aircraft
picture in which William S. Hart
will be starred and which comes to
the Majestic theatre for three days
commencing tonight.
Mr.. Sullivan is a master of plot
and his imagination seems unlimit-
ed. He never duplicates an idea
though he has written hundreds of
plays. His stories are invariably
red bIooded, virfle, dramatic and
full of that quality known as
punch"
In Wagon Tracks" he has
achieved a masterpiece. 1t is full
of historical interest, having to do
with the experiences of a leader
of the vast caravans of folk who
plodded across the prairie via the
old Santa Fe trail in the fifties.
Mr. Hart is the central figure
a scout and plainsman, like Kit
Carson and his ilk. There is a
strong thread OF romance, Jane
Novak being the girl in the case.
There are Indians and pioneers, all
the strange figures of that early
western period when men had to
be strong in mind and muscle to
win out against the tides that swept
westward.
The picture is accurate in every
detail and thrilling to the last de-
gree. 1t is a tremendously power
full story and was directed with
great skill by Lambert Hillyer.
Lloyd Bacon, son of Frank Bacon,
the famous legitimate actor, ap-
pears in an excellent role. Leo
Pierson, Bert Sprotte and Charles
Arlin are also in the cast. Robert
Mckim has an unusually heavy
role.

At the Spencer.

Louisa NJ. Alcott's wonderful
story of girlhood, Little Women"
recently picturized. will be shown
again tonight and tomorrow at tho
Spencer Square. It brings to life
the four little women and many of
the other characters all Of which
are well remembered by those who
have read this celebrated novel.
The story is acted most sympathet-
icaIly and wherever shown, the
production created an impression
that few motion pictures have done
in a long time. The adventures OF
the four little women, Meg, Joe,
Beth and Amy are attractively PHI
tured, the result being photoplay
of irresistible charm and beauty.
The picture was photographed in
the old home of Miss Alcott where
the immortal story was written, so
that all who have read the story
will appreciate the cradle in which
their favorite heroines were born
and reared to splendid young

FL PASO, Texas, July 23.-Gen Villa and Felix Angeles have dis banded their rebel forces until next September It is announced that they will go to Japan in an effort to obtain ammunition for the Villa rev olutiOn.
 The report that Angeles was to re turn to the United States seems to be, unfounded The attack by the American troops against the rebel forces which concentrated to capture Juarez recently, seems to have bro ken the back of the rebellion at least for tns present. +fgf
 From reports received here it is indicated that the two rebel leaders hope to not only secure munitions from Japan. but hope to secure re- cruits for their forces.

Government Believes the Offer Made a Fair One. Provisions For the

PARIS, July 23.-France has offered to take over the American military cost to the American government The United States officials believe that the offer is liberal because much of the property will prove of little value for peace times.

IS MUCH SPECULATION

PARIS, July 23-There is much speculation in diplomatic and peace circles whether the United States will sign the Bulgarian treaty. The understanding was here and in Ger many when President Wilson left Paris, 1t was expected that America would sign both the Turkish and Bull garian treaties.
 Uncertainty regarding the course of the United States at the present time is frightened by the rumors that America will not accept the job of being mandatory to Armenia or any other European province or state, owing to the fact that the treaty with Germany has not been signed by China. because of the. Shantung settlement.
