THE BATTLER' COMES ID LAMARA FRIDAy;' |S UT FAST SIDE LIFE.

''The Battler" opening a two days engagement today, will prove an at traction of real merit with the patrons of the Hip.
 It tells of a mans struggle to rise above his surroundings, and of his light to become a man of the world, success in business, and occupy his place in the worlds affairs. The man In question is a prize fighter, having been forced into the squared circle through force of circumstances, his success in the arena being due solely to his clean living, and to his upper most regard tor strict honor and square dealing. One one evening, a summing party, visiting the neighzor- hood, runs onto the "battler" as he is known, and the 'battler" is peculiarly attracted to one of the ladies of the party, whose husband seems particu- larly overbearing and offensive. His manner soon brought the "battler" to the rescue of the wife, thus gaining the hatred of the husband, and his VOW of vengeance. Later, this same husband, who is, himself an amateur boxer, arranges bout for the edifica- ton of his friends in which he is scheduled to meet a well known boxer. The Battler" managed to have him. oSlA SODolAlultQ IOT lHe we'll hnOWn lighter, unknown to the husband. The husband, in attempting to force the wife to attend the bout against her wishes. slashes her across the throat With big whip. The wife, when she sees the "battler" in desperation, shows him the whip welt, and begs him 10 Kill the man whose brutality placed 1t there. The "battler" is nearly be- side himself with rage, the husband when he recognizes his antagonist is equally enraged. The ring battle which follows has been claimed the most realistic ever filmed, for all Queens bury rules are discarded and they fight as man to man. Victory for the bat tier after a terrible encounter only brings more fury to the husband, and the "battler" fearing for the wife's safety, hands her a revolver with which to protect herself if necessary. 1t IS then that the "battler" realizes his love for the wife, and he falteringly takes his leave. much preferring to stay and protect the woman, but. she quiets his fears with the assurance that the revolver will settle all differ ences. The husband. furiously en- ragged, attacks the wife, at the very moment the door is broken down, and m rush two strange people, who strug- gle with the wife to disarm her. The revolver is fired and the husband drops dead. The police are quickly on the train, but the mystery proves a baf- Hing one, for the wife has departed when they arrive. Slowly the web weaves around the wife and the Dat ter and how they struggle to prove their innocence is aply told in this un- usual drama of the east side of New York

officials on the high t&:t of living re-

result from the attacks on food prof.
teers and hoarders. With the decrease
in wholesale and retail prices there
came substantial increase in re-
celpts of various articles of food. It
was said that producers were rushing
shipments to the Chicago market in
fear of further reduction of prices in
the near future and large quantities
OF supplies were being taken out of
cold storage warehouses and offered
for sale.

not be recalled and that no further
witnesses would be asked to come be-
fore the committee in it's considera-
ton of the treaty. Some members
want to ask that Col, House, who is
still in Europe, be called to answer
questions about the league, but the
general expectation is that the pro-

great delay would result.
