strong dramatic sort of play and one
in which Miss Frederick's talents
as an actress are we'll brought out.

photoplay work, which are said to
make it most interesting bit OF
screen work.
Dorothy Dalton as Corrine Mel
rose, the stranded prima donna in
the hick town of Nilesburg is shown
at the Strand in Hard Boiled"
She is called upon to use her wits
to extricate herself and benefac-
tress from an embarrassing situa-
ton. The photography is excep-
tionally good and the exterior loca-
tons have been so carefully select
ed that they make the production
decidedly an artistic one. The story
was written by John Lynch and d.
rected by Victor Schwertzinger. The
support includes c. w. Mason, Billy
Cartwright, Gertrude Claire and
Walter HERS. A Charlie Chaplin
comedy, "A Night at the Show"
and the Pathe News are also shown.

turing William S. Hart, is the at
traction at the Rialto. Hart, as Hair
pin Harry, a habitue of the Barbara
Coast in San Francisco, is jobbed
into prison, leaving his wife and

ties for Hart to reach the unex-
pected heights of dramatic portrayal
which has won him hosts of friends.
The cast includes Juanita Hansen,
George Stone and Capt. Walter
Long. In addition to the feature, a
comedy and weekly are shown.
ION the Midnight Stage" starring
Frank Keenan, at the Sun yesterday
and today showed this veteran of
the stage and screen in new role,
Love, hate, greed and lawless pas
sion furnish the color and thrills for
this engrossing western drama,
which is an adaptation of Henry 1rv-
ing's historic success, The Lyons
Mail" The screen version is more
effective in its appeal, more impress
sive in its dramatic action because of
its fine natural setting and the pic
turesque period of American de-
velopment in which it is laid.

Two War Tanks fol
Liberty Loan Drive and

Thomas c. Byrne, state chairman
of the Victory Liberty loan, has .
big job on his hands. He has been
offered two six-ton tanks to be
used for IL days in the state Of Ne
braska, outside of Omaha. and al
most every city wants one OF them

Omaha and Lincoln will probably
be the only cities to have both oi

The tanks, which saw service in
the Argonne forest, will start on
their Nebraska schedule about April
10. The cities outside Omaha will
see them first. They will probably
arrive in Omaha about Tuesday,
April D. One of their opening
stunts will be to race up Farnam

Billie is the vivacious, fearless
daughter of Gentleman Geoff,"
owner of the Blue Chip gambling
hall in the oil-boom Mexican town,
Limasito. Hither have come rep
resentatives of two rival oil COM
panies, Kean Thode and Starr
Wiley. who hope to discover the To-
cation of THE Pool of Lost Souls"
which, native tradition has it, is the
center of the huge natural oil reser-
voir Graded in the turbulent Mexi-
can foothills. Tia Juana, a native
woman, the only living being who
knows the location of the mysteri-
Gus pool, means to unfold the Sc
cret to Billie, who has befriended
her on many occasions. A note from
Juana comes to the girl and leads
Billie to believe that the secret is
at last to be disclosed to her.

that Jose, in the fierce pain of the
attack, had fallen unconscious.
Billie carries the injured boy to
his dobe home and there, from his
half-delirious mutterings, she learns
that Juana has in her keeping, Sc
curely concealed, glove of a
strange red hue. Drawn in black
on the inside OF this glove, so Jose
reveals, is a map showing the loca-
ton of the pool. But Jose knows
no better than Billie where Juana
hides the gauntlet.
Fired with indignation at Wiley's
cruel abuse of Jose, Billie leaps
again on her horse and gallops back
to Limasito. There, at the Blue
Chip, she encounters the oil man
and charges him to his face with
his attack on Jose. Wiley, thus

Why Men Are Held in Camps

Il Washington, March 23.-The War
department today issued a statement
explaining the present system of de-
mobilization and discussing reasons
why the British or other plans could
not have been followed in the
United States. In reply to criticism
that many men were being held in
camps unnecessarily, the statement
said large numbers of soldiers were
needed at the rehabilitation centers
to facilitate the discharge of men re-
turning from overseas as well as
those who served in this country.

Japanese Offer China Loan
With Iron Mines as Security

Picking, March 23.-Japan officially
is advising China not to touch the
100000 yen unpaid balance of the
war participation loan. Meantime
negotiations have nearly been COM
pleted between the Okura company
and the Chinese war ministry for a
loan of 100000 yen, the security
of which is to be the Feng-Huang-
Shan iron mines and considerable
surrounding territory.
The plan is to organize a Chino
Japanese company, which will give
the Okura company first call on all
its products. The company offers

Thode, however, are both at hand
to see that no harm befalls the girl.
But when they start to her rescue
she proudly waves them back. Il

and her hand, steady as a mans

holster hanging at her waist.
Wiley skulkingly backs away,
But he is certain of victory. AT
that very moment plan set on foot
under his direction is being put into
execution. This is destined to cause
more than a little disturbance in
Limasito, and eventually will bring
to Billie not only much danger but
much sorrow as we'll. The storm,
indeed, is even then agthering.
