A Lucky Turn Of Fortune.

A chance happening sometimes re-
suits in the directing of mans entire
life. This truth is well illustrated in
THE Dub" Wallace Reid's new Para
mount picture, which will be shown
at the Nelson theatre today.
John Craig, a young contractor, Is
sitting in the park wondering how he
can obtain some money to carry on
his business Suddenly he remembers
box Of dynamite that he left on his
desk at his office, and which may fall
and cause an explosion. AS he thinks
OF 1t little boy near him smashes an
air-filled paper bag with a resound-
ing thwack. The explosion coming
at the same time that Craig is think
ing of the dynamite, causes him to
jump out OF his seat in nervous fright.
Nearby sits Burley Hidden, a
shrewd and crooked attorney. He
sees Craig and decides that he's a
coward and a dub. That suits his pur-
pose exactly and he proceeds to hire
Craig for delicate mission and prom
tses TO pay him $1,000 IL he succeeds.
MADDEN doesn't want him to succeed.
but he has to make a show of carry.
out the mission and he thinks Craig
will fail in great shape.
Right there Craig fools him. He
departs on the mission, finds a beau
tiful girl in distress and at the end
wins the girl and a fortune besides.
1t Is a decidedly ingenious tale. and
MI. Reid is at his best as John Craig.
The supporting cast is excellent, Nina
Byron being the leading woman.

Popular Novel Filmed.

In taking full advantage Of all the
possibilities Of Charles Rein's play,
and in presenting, besides, Alice Joyce
as Shirley Rossmore in 1.-THE Lion and
the Mouse" Vitagraph is giving most
attractive and pleasing picture at the
Dixie today. The story, full of genu-
inc American interest, flows along as
smoothly and deeply as a great river,
sweeping out finally into big climax.
The character of Shirley Rossmore,
the real American girl, beautiful gen
erous, talented, devoted to her father,
is a distinctively individual creation OF
Charles Klein. Taking on the role OF
Shirley, Alice Joyce draws for her in.
tehpretation from rich store of grace
and charm. She enhances the finely
constructed story, entertains while it
is getting under way, sustains 1t at all
times, and when 1t reaches its big mo-
ments compels frank admiration for
her artistic treatment Of the part.
Tom Terriss, the director, shows the
star amid such surroundings, the CEN
ter of beautiful settings worthy of
the home OF "the richest man In the
world" and loses no chance to set
of her winning personality. The in
offensive exhibition of a number Of
richly planned settings is one of the
fine points OF the picture.
Anders Randolf, seen in the charac.
ter of the American Octopus" John
Burkett Ryder, gives a worthy inter-
probation OF the powerful, unscrupu-
lous man OF big business, and he with
Conrad Nagel in the part of Jefferson
Ryder give Alice Joyce able support.

CONDEMN SHUTS APPOINTMENT.
Paris Papers Think Him Incompetent to

Paris, April 3,-One of the happenings
in peace conference circles yesterday, the
Matin and the Journal unite today in
alluding TO as great event The coun-
ell of four actually issued communique
the newspapers point out, but il Il
stated, sit was only to tell us that Gen
SHUTS is going to investigate Hungary"
The SHUTS appointment Is one which

Quoted the negotiations in Switzerland
in 1918 with Count Mensdorfr PouiIly-
Dietrchstein. the Austro Hungian am
bassador at London, at the outbreak of
the war, in which it has been charged
by Paris newspapers that the bluntness
of Smuts choked off possible negotiations
by Austro- Hungary for separate peace
The commentators see in the announce
ment Of the Smuts mission vet another
procrastination by the peace conference.
The step is pointed out as all the more
disappointing because of the hope raised
by the recent summoning into confer
ence Of General Magin, man Of action
who it is reported now is going back to
his headquarters on the Rhine.

NEsE-AMERIcAN ALLIANCE
In Order to Exploit China and Siberia is
Suggested.

San Francisco, April 3.-The develop
ment of China and Serbia will be ac-
eomplished by the formation of an or
ganization of leading financiers and
bankers in Japan and the United States,
according to 4. Mochizuki and Y. Ozaki,
members Of the japanese parliament,
who are visiting this country to study
political conditions before proceeding 70
Paris in an unofficial capacity.
"The time has come when it is neces-
sary for Japan and the United States
to stop misunderstanding each other and
get together for their mutual benefit, "
Mochizuki said "We in Japan and many
leading Americans understand that the
questions arising from the expected de-
velopment of China and Siberia are too
big for Japan to handle alone. We be-
lieve this question should be solved and
mastered jointly by the two countries. "
In commenting on the different phases
of the proposed organization he said:
''When this is accomplished we believe
that any unofficial talk heard here and
in Japan will cease. The fact that a
Japanese American pool which will per
haps total into the billions has been
formed will make all understand that
Japan is not trying TO take any ad-
vantage"
Mochizuki expressed the opinion that
"the United States and Japan should
s0atrol the Pacific for all time"
