Seldom has a more varied or better balanced bill been presented at Polls theatre than the one which opened yesterdays matinee and which will hold the board for the balance of the week. The picture bill is headed by Robert Vieller's great play, The "Thirteenth Chair" which has more mystery, thrills, love and adventure crowded into each foot than any film presented here in a long while.
 Extra Dry is the title of the big Friedlander musical comedy which tops the vaudeville bill. The book is by Harlan Thompson, and the entire production is presented by a very capable and good looking company which warrants the management in announcing that it is a tabloid two dollar Broadway show.
 Slim Kellam and Patricia O'Dare received a big ovation upon their ap- pearance at all performances. Slim Kellam is an old favorite here, having appeared in "Too Many Sweethearts'' before he wetn to France with the colors.
 The Rickards showed up well and made a wonderful hit with their big novelty act which includes singing, shadowgraphy, magic and many other novelties which puts it in a class by itself.
 Howel and Groves also made a hit and well deserved the big applause which their original comedy earned. The Pathe Weekly News proves to be one of the best reels ever produced by the corporation which covers the en- tire world in search of pictures to il- lustrate current events

 Evelyn Cunningham Is without a doubt the cleverest and most attract i've leading lady in the burlesque world today, a good voice plus good looks and the ability to get all that Is to be had from the chorus and that ia a good deal as this chorus is very versatile and individually rem dered some very good sketches too numerous for mention here.

LEST WE FORGET
BY WILLIAM H. BAwDEN

Everybody who was in this vicinity
last October has occasion to remember
the explosion. Wonder has often been
expressed as to what would have hap
pened had the entire Morgan plant
blown up at once. What was feared
Is evidenced by the fact that in New
York city the tunnels and briggs were
closed temporarily to traffic, while in
other neighboring cities the occu-
pants of tall buildings were warned
not to remain indoors. The testimony
of those who were supposed to know
differed. some saying hat everything
within a radius of from twenty-five to
fifty miles would be totally destroyed,
while the expert before the investigat-
ing committee maintained that, while
the earth tremors would do little dam
age, the air currents would be of more
than cyclonic force within a radius
of at a five miles, ms would be of
sufficient force to do structural dam
age. We have been told that not
more thar $500 pounds of INT let go
at any one time. We were also told
pounds stored there at the time. with
far more only a few miles away. at
Bonhamtown. What would have hap
pened IL these tremendous masses of
explosives had let go?
George N. Cole, of the u. s. Wealth
er Bureau, has recently given a satis-
factory scientific explanation as to
what kills in volcanic catastrophes,
apart from those victims overtaken
by molten lava or buried in ashes.
His theory, which has been pro-
nounced automatic now that he has
disclosed 1t, Is that it is heat that
kills, heat generated dramatically,
that is, by pressure. The tremendous
force Of the volcanic explosion causes
an aXRaadtn0 CIV nrnat nnnnnraQcfnn ~
the surrounding air, which is increas-
ed by the heat of the matter thrown
out by the volcano, as well as by the
gases ignited by the explosion. The
tremendous rise in the temperature of
the air is sufficient to burn the body
without affecting the clothing, while
the equally tremendous increase of the
velocity of the.air causes a pressure
which would instantly stifle both lung
and heart action, as well as cause alb
sorbtion of air by the blood. The sud
den r~arefaction of the atmosphere fol-
lowing the relaxation of the pressure
would tend to have an explosive force
within the body.
Now while this explanation was
given with direct reference to the
sudden eruption of Mt. Pelee and the
sudden snuffing out of the lives Of the
1000 inhabitants of st. Pierre only
a few miles away. it has a bearing on
the possible consequences of the let
ting go at once of millions of pounds
of TINT, which would be. considering
what happened on the explosion of a
few Thousand pounds. probably of vol
canic force. While recent investigation
may END to reassure us, we cannot
altogether feel comfortable, as the
editor of the EVENING NEWS has
recently pointed out so long-as any
considerable quantity of the stuff con-
tinues to be stored near.
