ANOTHER FIRE Loss.
Coal and Hay Sheds Along thd Pere Mar
quette Track Burn to the Ground.

Coal and Hay SnedS Along tno fere Nldf-
quette Track Burn to the Ground.
Yale has suffered considerable loss
from fire during the past year and each
one has been shrouded in mystery, the
last one being no exception.
Sunday, Feb. 10th at midnight fire
broke out in the hay sheds belonging
to Mrs. Hattie Hisey which contained
two cars of pressed hay, the property of
Geo. w. Elston. Before the hose com.
pany arrived on the scene the coal sheds
of the Yale Lumber & Coal Co., cover
ing 80 feet along the railway tracks,
were all afire and for time it appeared
as though the lumber buildings and
sheds along with the lumber and con-
tents were doomed. BY hard work and
splendid management of the boys at
the hose the fire was soon under con-
troll and held from spreading to adjacent
buildings. All day Sunday previous tn
wind was from the north but by evening
it had shifted to the southwest. Had
the fire broke out the $4,000 stock of
the lumber company, not saying any
thing about its buildings and adjacent
property, would no doubt have been
consumed by the lery element
The loss to the Yale Lumber C Coal
Co. will foot up in the neighborhood
of $4,000 covered by insurance. Mrs
Ii isey's hay sheds were total loss, no
insurance Mr.. Elston's pressed hay and
$l0O worth of hay wire were destroyed,
loss about 5000, covered by insurance.
An empty box car on the z. M. siding
was burned.
Too much credit cannot be given our
hre laddies for the noble work they
have done in every instance fire has
broken out in our midst.
The Lumber & Coal Co. will rebuild
their coal sheds, but it is doubtful If the
hay sheds are rebuilt.

HOLMES AND McDERMOTT
ARTISTS OF REPU

Stuart Holmes, who plays the role
of the william in Norma Talmadge's
latest Select Picture, "The New
Moon," in which she is presented by
Joseph M. Schenck today and tomor-
row at the Royal Theatre and Marc
McDermott, who also has an import
ant role, are both portrait artists of
considerable talent, when not en-
gagged in making pictures.
Mr.. Holmes is likewise a sculptor
hnd las year exhibited his "Bust of
President Wilson" 1T the Independent
Exhibition of New York. He has
also the distinction of having made
the models for the eagles over the
door of the Chicago Post Office, and
has recently finished a portrait in
oils of Miss Talmadge.
Mr.. McDermott works in black and
white rather than oil, and is more
interested III landscapes and marine
scenes than he is in portraits, but
not to be outdone by Mr.. Holmes,
Mr. McDermott made a series of
impressionistic India ink sketches of
Norma Talmadge in her Russian
story. "The New Moon"
Mr.. McDermott first studied art
while making pictures abroad for the
Edison Company. He has collec-
tion of very beautiful sketches of old
cathedrals, views on the Thames,
quaint architectural drawing of
houses in the little peasant villages
of France, and other interesting
sketches which he made during the
year he spent in England and France.

THE CHAP WHO WROTE
'THE BRUTE BREAKER"

DIN ~ DAsAHAAAAAS
Critics should be kind to "The
Brute Breaker" now showing at the
Nogales Theatre, for it was written
by one of their ilk, namely Johnston
McCulley, formerly dramatic critic OF
the Los Angeles Times.
Until few pears ago McCulley
was too busy criticising plays to think
of writing one. Once when his pen
had carved several gashes in cur
rent production the irate author said
to him:
eff you don't like the way l write
plays why don't you write one your
self?"
Taking the hint. McCulley sat down
and dashed off the first of his long
list of successful photoplays. That
started him on his career as play
wright, scenarist and magazine writer
and he has been going strong ever
since.
"The Brute Breaker" McCulley's
latest Universal photoplay, is a virile
story of the great north woods. 1t
shows the success Of strong man
who started out to clean up the lum-
ber camps.
Frank Mayo and Kathryn Adams
both popular Universal players, share
honors, in the production.

MUSICAL SHOWS COST
BIG FORTUNES
No Longer Possible to Get by Under
$4O,O00-"Oh Baby" Cost
Twice That

"Maybe you think that filmy stuff
those girls wear in the Danse d'Eve
is cheese cloth that cost four cents a
yard to buy and nothing garment to
make. There is where you are fooled
again. Even that is silk and although
I'll admit we don't use great deal
in this particular danse do you know
that each costume, requiring less than
a yard of material, cost me eight dol
lars to make"
The speaker was A. B. Marcus,
whose famous Marcus Show comes to
the Lyric Theater in ooh Baby" on
January 2.
In this extravaganza alone Mr..
Marcus has expended $4,000 in cos
tunes, scenery and effects. 1t is sell
dom that any Broadway musical show
nowadays can be produced for less
than $4,000.
Another heart rending features of
operating a musical show like "Oh
Baby" is the loss of costumes from
wear An evening gown costing sew
eral hundred dollars only lasts six to
twelve weeks. Despite the constant
care of expert modistes the silks and
satins go in no time. To use cheap
material or allow the young women to
wear the garments after they COM
mence to show signs of wear would be
to lower the Marcus standard. This
would not be considered.
"The only way can beat it," went
on Mr.. Marcus in a recent interview,
is on the barefoot number where they
don't have to wear shoes and stock
ings. / can't cheat on the quality but
can save some on the quantity by
making the skirts higher and the
waists lower. However, you know
even this method has its limits and |
have nearly reached the end of my
tether."

ADJUSTMENTS

/, conveying the Alaskan atmosphere
convincingly.
The scene of the drama is in the
Yukon in the depth of the Arctic WIN
ter, most of the action taking place
on the trail of the great Lillimuit Di-
vide.
Across this trackless waste of snow
men have gone in search of "The
Mints of HE'LL" the name given to
Flat Gold, which is black and soft
and flat like coins from "the mints of
hell" In their mad search for this
most precious of all gold-ore, adven-
turers have gone over the Divide
never to return, while many who
found it and survived, have gone mad
with joy at the sight of the treasure
which made them millionaires.
The drama tells the story of man
who went alone over the unknown
trails and found the Flat Gold
"pocket."
William Desmond was never better
cast than in this picture, and makes
manly and likeable character in the
role of Dan Burke, the hero.
Park Frame directed the produc-
ton which contains an unusually
strong cast.

TIP TO WIFE: GO INTO SILENCE
(By United Press)

LONDON, Dec. 3O.-"Going into
the silence" is becoming a popular in
door sport in the United Kingdom.
The game is played usually between
married couples who find themselves
chatting under the heavenly bonds but
who haven't reached the divorce court
stage.
Since the introduction into court of
the case of Mrs. Florence Hill against
/ her husband, G. J. Hill, in which it
was brought out that the couple had
lived three years without mutual con-
Kersation, cases of speechless matri-
mony have multiplied.
Someone with a good memory
brought out the fact that Daniel De-
foe aintained the silence in his home
for something like quarter of CEN
fury while he wrote Robinson Crusoe
and some of his other works.
Other cases have been recalled in
which couples who found the daily
strain of breakfast-table conversa-
tion too much for them have resorted
to the Gin response to yours of the
goth ultimo" form of communication.

you. And tomorrow night at the

them what's coming to them. 1t can't

Bobby had risen from his place at tho
table and was addressing the imag-
mary club In meeting assembled.
Lucille didn't know exactly what
had como over her beloved Bobby,
but felt as IL suddenly milestone had
dropped from her shoulders. But
Bobby explained.
"You see your brother John--welJ, l
suppose he realized that had bit
more business ability than the other
fellows in the club. Anyway, he APP
pointed me a committee Of one to act

Some of the members had been COM
planning that for dollar he ought to
be able to give US better dinner.
But went into the matter systematl-
cally, as | always DO and, believe me,
It can't be done. II those old fossils
think 1t can, they'd better try. Why,
one Of the members Of the house COM
mittee had the audacity to tell me
that didn't know how to buy"
"You dear Bobby" sympathized LII
ellie. Wasn't that hateful% And
then as a look OF happiness settled
over her pretty fair features; when
did brother John ask you to take

ner party--and say, Lucille, since I've
been looking into this matter I'll have
to confess l don't see how you gOt

Weeks passed and the slight disap-
pointment that Bobby had sustained
regarding the dinner party was we'll

propaganda Of this sort at the ball
grounds behind the big fence at Fourth
Avenue and Twenty third Street. The
cripples play every day at noon. Every
morning and afternoon they work at
bench trades, learning to be draughts-
men, jewellers and typewriter repair
men.
But to return to the field day Of
which the Red Cross series was only
tho grand climax The bleachers were
filled with a strange crowd, prosper
GUS cripples, former pupils of the
school. who are doing we'll in business
for themselves; those who have just
begun the upward climb with q modest
little newsstand or fruit store, and
newly crippled boys. 1t was good to
their ears to hear Sam explain loftily:
"Pooh, this is nothin'-just a little
exercise"
And some Of them-after the crowd
had swarmed over to the tables where
Miss Florence Sullivan was dispensing
lemonade which went down as easily
as If it, too, had crutch instead of
the old fashioned stick-ventured to
toss a few timid balls when nobody
was looking. and hoped after them,
smiling.
The field day programme began with
basket ball, and the ubiquitous Sam,
