 AT THE STRAND TODAY

Today is the day all Phoenix has anxiously awaited. It is the opening of "The Miracle Man." which will play q solid weeks engagement at the Strand. The matinee this afternoon will start the engagement of without question the most widely conversed and discussed picture of the age. George Loane Tucker gave to the world in his cinema triumph, "The Miracle Man." it's greatest effort since the in> ceptton of the industry, and how well he has pleased the most exacting American public is best attested to in the fact that the picture has enjoyed the longest runs ever recorded for any attraction in the larger cities.

San Diego, marked up three weeks for "The Mira Gle Man" where up to the time of it's arrangement the record was ten days. Ahoenix is to play it a solid week.
 Tucker has evolved a picture that literally incorporated everything. It has a deep human appeal never before reached by either author or producer. It goes from darkness to dawn, from the depths to the very highest heights ifG nf fagpfpatfnex TN is essentially the sunshine play that will never die, bringing it's message with telling effect and startling audi ences throughout the country as noth- ing has ever stirred them before.

COHAN'S BEST DRAMA |S MIRACLE MANI
 AT ELKS THIS WEEK

The drama that made one of the greatest sensations ever attained by a New York theatrical production, "The Miracle Man" will be the offering by the Edler Stock company at the Elks theater for the coming week, beginning Monday night. This story from the novel by Frank L. Packard, was dra- matized for the stage by George M. Conan, the greatest author-actor- producer in America, and MT. Conan declares without reservation that it was the greatest drama ever seen in the metropolis.
 Having been informed that the state ment had been circulated here that the stage version of The Miracle Man" had been failure, MT. Conan immediately wired to Brandon Broth CTS and to Manager Edler denying this and declaring that the New York run of "The Miracle Man" had been a big

 ''The Miracle Man" is a drama full of sensations. It tells the story of an old man in little Maine village who has been accomplishing some wonderful cures, all for the good of the cause and without pay. A band of crooks, three men and a woman, de- termine to turn this simple man to their own selfish and illegal use. The girl is sent to the Maine village pre- tending to be the old mans grand neice. The three crooks follow later They are to pretend to be afflicted with various diseases and to appear to become cured. But in the mean time, the girl is won over to the old mans side. The scene where the mir acle man" succeeds in raising the crooks from their underworld existence to a higher life is the sensation of the drama
 Miss Winifred Greenwood will be in the role of the grand neice and Cliff ford Alexander as the leader of the
 
 as the miracle man." This is a re- markable characterization and re- quires' an actor of the caliber of Mir Brewer to portray it.
 The other members of the Edle1 company will be well cast The stag ing of 'The Miracle Man" will be done with care and complete in every way All the characters in the drama are human and vital and the story is full of strong situations.

The moment he learns of the death of his friend the most intense hatred, and a. stirring thirst for revenge springs up in the heart of Steele, and he swears he will bring the guilty to justice, working singlehanded and defying the most desperate gang of men in the country. He leaves his beloved Rang CTS. he journeys into the wilds of the prairies, and comes to the little town of Fairfield.

Never for an instant does Steele forget his mis- sion, and when he learns that Rays father is the leader of the gang of rustlers. we find a terrible battle rag-' ing in his heart as he struggles be- tween love of the girl and the desire to avenge the death of his most be- loved friend. Slowly he gathers to- gether the thread of his damaging story, and when he has all the facts, he tells Ray who he is, and also the part her father has played in the deals which the cattle rustler has put across But Ray gives him the information that places the father in an entirely new light, and redoubles the effort or | the Ranger to bring the guilty ones i to their just deserts.

BODY OF UNKNOWN
MAN WASFOUND ON
FOREST LOG ROAD
Autopsy Showed that Death
Was From Natural
Causes
NO ONE CAN IDENTIFY
1t Is Supposed Party Became Ex-
hausted on Way Out and Died on
Road in the Forest
NO ONE CAN IDENTIFY

Island Pond, May 13-Much excite
ment has prevailed for the past few
days over finding the body of an un-
known man Sunday afternoon by a
lumberman named Boucher on lum-
Der road leading from the lumber
camps at Wenlock to Beattie's in the
town of Brunswick.
States Attorney C. r. Powell was
notified and investigated the case.
An autopsy was held last evening at
North Stratford, N. H., by Drs.
Stone and Whitney of the State Lab
oratory of Hygiene at Burling-
ton. No injuries were found on the
body that would indicate foul play
and the authorities were satisfied that
death was from natural causes.
From all appearances the body had
been lying on the lumber road
through the winter months. The
body was given over to the town au-
thorities of Brunswick for burial.
The body when found was lying
face down, clothed in summer suit,
derby hat and low shoes. Nothing
was found on the body that would
lead to identification, and no one at
the lumber camps remembered per-
SON of such description. The man
was about SO years old, and all eff
forts of States Attorney Powell to
identify same were fruitless.
Wenlock is a station on the Grand
Trunk railroad, eight miles below
this station, in the township of Fer
dinand, at which place are located ex-
tensive lumber mills employing many
hands. 1t seems probable this party
had been to the lumber camps, sit
uated from -four to eight miles back
in the forest, and on his way out had
become exhausted and fell by the
side of the lumber road. The road is
one not in constant use and the body
became covered by snow and remain
ed undiscovered until the snow melt
ed and the chance passing of Bouch-
er.

CHINA APPEALS TO
AMERICAN SENATE
TO REFUSE TREATY
Protests Against KiaO-C -Chau
Decision and Its
Ratification
COUNCIL is CRITICISED
China Not Likely to Sign Treaty Un-
less She Receives Assurance from
Council of Three
is CRITICISED

PARIS, May 10 ASSOCIATED Press)
AT meeting held under the aus
pices of "The Chinese Society for In
ternational Peace" and attended by
the Chinese Ambassador and mem
bers of the Chinese delegation to the
Peace Conference motion was
adopted for the sending of a cable
message to the United States Senate,
praying it not to ratify the decision OF
the Peace Conference regarding the
disposition of Shantung and Kiao-
chau.
A letter was read from President
Wilson, in which he expressed his re-
gret that his engagements prevented
him from accepting an invitation to
be present.
Among the speakers was Charles r.
Crane of Chicago, who expressed
sympathy with China's demand.
Among the Chinese speakers were
Miss Tcheng, well known feminist,
and Mr.. Cheng, proprietor of the Pc
king Gazette. They severely critic
ised the decision of the Council of
Three.
1t seems unlikely that China will
sign the Treaty of Peace unless she
receives the written assurance of the
Council of Three that Japan will re-
turn Kiao-C Chau to China. The Chi
nese delegates say the clause in the
treaty contains no such provision,
their only basis for believing that
such restitution will be made being
an oral agreement. Without a definite
written promise from the Council of
Three, they believe it impossible to
gain permission from the Chinese
Cabinet for the signature of the
treaty.
Without such a written promise, the
Chinese delegates hold their position
to be worse than under the Japanese
treaties, which specifically pledge the
return ofKiao- Chau. The Chinese con-
tention is being watched with much
interest because it raises a ques-
ton as to the actual status of many
oral agreements in the conferences of
the Council of Three, which are not
known to have been reduced to writ
ing.

SENATE TO Be FREE
FROM PARTY LINES
Vote Will Be Given After
Giving 1t Serious
Study,
CRITICISM DID GOOD
Republican National Committee De-
clare Debate Will Be One of
the Greatest Heard
CRITICISM DID GOOD

WASHINGTON, May 12-Partis-
anship will play no part in the atti-
tude of Republican Senators in voting
upon the League of Nations covenant
according to a statement issued by
the Republican National Committee.
Senators will vote, the committee
says, according to their convictions.
The statement reads:
efforts to make it appear that Re-
publican Senators are considering the
covenant for the League of Nations
from a partisan standpoint will fail.
The questions involved transcend par
tisanship. Senate Republicans ex-
pect to confer and take counsel of
one another's views, but they say that
any notion there will be any attempt
to caucus and bind members to do
this is without foundation.
"a part of the Democrat side, too,
will rise above partisanship in the
consideration of the covenant. On
the other hand certain democrats
who were just as enthusiastic for the
League before it was revised as they
are now, will think along political
lines only, and abjectly do whatever
the administrator wants done. They
would have voted for it without pro-
lection for the Monroe Doctrine just
as readily as they will vote for it
now.
Enough Senators will study the
proposition deeply and seriously to
make it certain the country will hear
one of the great debates of this gen.
Grafton when it is discussed. 1t will
be. a debate characterized by exposi-
tions of Americanism which will be
worth while.
"That the covenant has been i'm
proved by the criticisms which were
directed against the original instru-
ment by such men as Lodge, Root,
Cummins, Borah, Knox, Hiram John
son, Poindexter, and other prominent
republicans, is not seriously disputed
by any considerable number of the
League supporters in either house of
Congress.
reports that anything like final
alignment of the Senate has. been
made are not well-fcunded. Com
paratively few Senators save those
committed to the covenant from the
start, have said how they will vote
on the final test. Just what the par
situation will be is not
yet plain and cannot be until the text
of the peace treaty is given out.
at is obvious there will be great
debate and hard controversy over
proposed to the coven-
ant, and probably the hardest fight
of all will rage about the provisions
that look to the guarantee of terri
torial integrity of nations, which
means underwriting of the boundary
lines of the world as the League maps
them out"
