BY CARTER GLASS
(Secretary of the Treasury

My attention has been directed TO
the activities of INSCRIPTIONS persons
who have been op rating cx.snsiN ey
throughout the country n who are
swindling the owners of Liberty Bonds
by purchasing bonds at prices far be-
low their actual worth.
These swindlers get the
of Liberty Bond n by publish
ing advertisements calculated to
make tho unsuspecting bond owner
believe that the highest market price
can be secured for his bonds through
the agency of tho advertiser. Such
is rarely, If over. the case. ecord
of transactions of this character
brought to the attention of the de-
partment OF justice and the treasury
department prove conclusively that
these ~swindlers take every advantage
of bond owaers Wau are forced into
their clutches by paying the lowest
possible price which the owner Will
accept, and generally far below the
actual value of the bonds.
[ regret to observe that many repu-
label newspapers are being victimized
by accepting the advertisement OF
these sWindlers. II l appeal to all
newspaper publishers to scruttnize
very carefully the character of indi-
vidlals who use their columns TO offer
to buy Liberty Bonds. As a news

AT THE PALACE TONIGHT

That haters of women have no place
in society and that their pretensions
are insincere. is adequately proved by
Marguerite Clark in her splendid char
acterization of the role of Sylvia Wes-

will be shown at the Palace theatre to-
night.

delightful girl as Sylvia Weston,
personated by Marguerite Clark? All
fall in love with her. but she accepted
only one of them. the little bear" as
she called him. and both are happy.

AT THE REPUBLIC TONIGHT

How Judith Rutledges idealistic
conception of life in the great cities
was sent crushing on the rocks of a
harsh reality is the theme of Her
Kingdom of Dreams" starring Anita
Stewart. and which will be seen at the
Republic theatre tonight.
AS a young girl living with her in
valid father in a small western town
Judith frequently longed for the won
ders and beauties of the large cities
And. as reward for that longing, ii
seemed. an opportunity came to her to
visit her Utopia. She was TO be a
private secretary to James Warren
prominent Wall street banker
Once in the employ of Warren. Jud-
this sincere services led Warren to be-
lieve that she could be trusted with
his most masonic secrets. On his
deathbed, he made a final request
that Judith marry his rather unsteady
son, Fred
How this marriage, entered into in a
spirit Of logged compliance with the
elder Mr. Warren's wishes, developed
into fervent love-match spiced with
episodes revolving about the wrecking
of great financial power, and the ex-
posture of shameless women makes
Her Kingdom Of Dreams" replete
with tense dramatic scenes that can
not fail to please the patrons of the
Republic theatre.

ii Last Night
WASHINGTON ST. BLAZE

Some eight or nine shots that rang
out over the stiffness of the night
along about II O'Clock last night caus-
ed considerable anxiety among resi-
dents % the city. particularly those
of the western section 1t was at
first thought that something of a fight
was in progress. but Il developed the
firing was a signal for an alarm Of
fire
The tlaze was discovered just
about IL O'Clock by residents along
Washington street when flames sho:
forth from the rear of the store prop
erty of Harry Ivrey. g. Washington
street. The bells and siren of the
fire companies quarters soon took up
the alarm. and the fire-fghters were
quick in reaching the scene For a
time. it was feared that the firemen
had serious time ahead of them
owing to the high northwest wind that
was blowing, and that the neighbor-
hood is a thickly settled tenement dis
trict, most of the dwelling houses be-
ing of frame, and inhabited by col
ored families. Bucket brigades had
been formed by colored people just
before the arrival of the firemen. but
the flames were licking their way
along rapidly. Soon. however three
streams of water began to play upon
the rear of the building and the blaze
which had begun to spread to the
house at No 60 Washington street
soon was under control. Firemen,
however. stood by the scene for sew
eral hours after it had been extin-
guished, fearing that the high winds
would fan a spark into a blaze.
