NEW STOREY PLAY
 GRIPS AND THRILLS
 AT EAGLE TODAY

"The Silent Woman" a story of the Great Northwest, is the latest of the forceful Metro plays in which Edith Storey, the great dramatic star, will be seen. This picture will be shown at the Eagle theater to- day with cast of supporting players of corresponding prominence.
 The screen play was adapted from the story written by Lois Zellner. It shows the happy, care-free Nan Mo Donald, ''the idol of the lumberjacks, 9 in her quiet life as a clerk in a Hud- son bay trading post. Here her exist ence is one of simple pleasure and helpfulness to others. Then tragedy comes to her. A family from the east arrive in town, and by her goodness to their little child she is drawn into the home life of the strangers. Here she learns many things = the telling of which would wreck a woman's honor and mans life. Against her own happiness she keeps what she has learned to herself. How death inter venes-and how the ungoverned pas sions of an interruptions man even tually bring about her happiness is graphically shown in this enthralling play in which the popular star is seen at her best.

 What has been believed all along is now proven by the testimony of the Department of Justice repre- sentatives' that Villas murderous raid upon United States Army camp at Columbus, N.

The money needed to equip the bandit deposited in St. Louis banks by Financial Agent Albert and Ambassador von Bernstorf, and through these institutions was duly transferred in the form of munitions.
 Like most of the clumsy diplomacy of Berlin the plan to involve us in with Mexico went awry but that it did was no fault of many American newspapers and politicians.

 one of the editorial difficulties resulting from the nrevailing exuberance of international good VIII ID the distinction between serious and Jocuiar sussee lions There is a general naivete of request ana reckless generosity of assent that leaves us sople for the boundaries of prudence and common sense by which guided ourselves AS an instance m @ there comes a request from Rossland, b. C' anu % oi, that evidently is being sent to newspapers M suggesting that the United States give to brltlsn oo lumbia all the Alaska coast line to the ihterhationa boundary at Maaspina glacier. Frankly we do not know whether correspondent really expects any thing to come out his suggestion except excitement on the part of the Aaskans involved in any such transfer Perhaps he is merely playing a practlcai joke on Juneau Wrangell, Ketchikan and the other communities in the coastal strip Still, the world is so expectantly optimistic that he may nave the fullest confidence in generosity.
 The basis for this request seems to be that brtsn Columbia would be very glad to nave thls coast hhe and the United States wouldn't miss it. There IS no irredenta claim set up suggestion that the terri tory is inhabited by British Columbians burning With desire to be restored to thelr native iand' u IS simply request for favor which would be greatly appreciated if the United States fit to grant it. Strangely enough, correspondent makes no men tion feelings of the inhabitants of this narrow and precipous It has not come to h1s mlnd that possibly the United stat0 can not very well give away territory without consAting those who are to go with the gift.
 On the whole we rather marvel at the moderation of our correspondent. He might well ask for the whole of Alaska, and with show of reason, for geographically at least, it is part of the Dominion of Canada and title to it comes only through a commercial transaction with Russia Alaska would be asset of considerable importance and our presenta tion of it British Columbia would be evidence of our good neighborhood Incidentally British oClum bia might give Vancouver island, for in addition to it's very good people, it's possession would enable to fortify the strait beyond possibility of nva sion.
 We rather suspect, however, that nothing will come of these suggestions. Everybody loves every body, just now it is true, but hardly in the mood for great international potlatch at which everyone may and take what he pleases. The present tone of international conversation and change of eXtravagant compliments may indicate that such event is likely but, far see the world is still doing business on a business basis.
