WED. & THURS, ONLY DAYS SEPT % & 80

One of the biggest screen produc-
tions of the year will be seen at the
Hipp Theatre when Maurice Tour
neur's super special, "The Great Re-
deemer," will be the feature of the
bill for two days, beginning next
Wednesday. "The Great Redeemer,"
it is announced, is tremendous drama
of absorbing human interest. Ac-
cording to the expectations of it's pro-
ducers, it is destined to be hailed as
one Of the really impressive photo
dramas Of the year.
Advance reports on '"The Great Re-
deemer" dwell with especial force
upon the unusual beauty of the pro-
duction from . pictorial standpoint,
as we'll as upon its intensely dramatic
theme and the tremendous moral mes
sage it carries to oil who view it.
Dan Malloy, As the story goes, has
eluded q posse that pursues him after
he has held up train, and takes ref
uge in the home of girl Of the noun
tains. The girl, startled by his sud
den and unannounced entrance into
her cabin, shoots the bandit, wounding
him slightly. Later, after hearing

his story and falling under the spell
Of his dominating personality, she
begins to love him. With Dan it has
been a case of love at first sight, and
he is soon contemplating the aban-
donment Of his career as bandit for
a fireside and respectability.
Temptation soon appears in the per-
son of former pal, who tips Dan of
to the fact that the limited can be
held up with ease if Dan will essay one
more fling at his old game. Dan sue
cumbs and attempts the hold-up, but
is surrounded and captured after his
pal has died fighting the forces of
the law.
Dan is sentenced to long term in
prison. 1t is within the grim gray
walls that his heart changes and he
begins the long, long struggle for re-
generation. The manner Of his ac-
complishing this reform is told in the
plot of "The Great Redeemer" with
a new and startling touch. For a
latter-day miracle is wrought that af-
fects not only the life of Dan Malloy.
but those Of others in the prison and
outside Of it.

It is this phase of the story that
contains the biggest punch of all. H.
n. Van Loan, who wrote "The Great
Redeemer," as well as a number of
other big photodramatic successes in
GLIDING "The Virgin Of Stamboul"
and "Vive la France" got the idea
for this situation from an incident
that took place in a western nil. His
original story was made into a seen
ario by Jules Furthman and Jack Gil
bert, and the production was directed
by Clarence Brown under the per
sonal supervision Of Maurice Tour
neur.
A notable cast appears in the pic
ture. It includes House Peters as
Dan Malloy. Marjorie Daw as the
girl; Joseph Singleton and Jack Mac

Dan Malloy, train robber. And out
of that book came a painting drawn

murdered to the gallows with con-

THE GREAT REDEEMER.

Desperately wounded, he sought
shelter in a woman's home, but her
first act on finding him there was to

law only to fall in love with him in

SUGAR Mills MAKING saItpeter.

In the sugar factory at Pecky, b.
hemia, successful experiments have
been made with the manufacture of
saltpeter from the waste liquids of the
mill. II is calculated that under nor.
NAL conditions the beet sugar factories
of CzechO-Slovakia will produce 5000
to 1000 tons of saltpeter annually.
This quantity is considered sufficient
for the production of explosives. In
Prague a corporation capitalized at
15.000000 crowns has been organized
to manufacture explosives under per-
nit of the government. The factory
will be located at Pardubice, but the
Offices of the corporation will be at

DAY SET APART FOR POOLING
Practical Jokes Common to April I
Have Been INDUCED in for Many
Generations.

There is much uncertainty respect
ing the origin Of All Fools day, April
i. when for generations the people Of
many lands have held 1t quite per-
missible to play practical jokes on one
another. Some think 1t had its origin
In miracle play of the middle ages,
performed at Easter time. The Gus
tom Of sending one upon a bootless
errand on the first day of April has
been supposed to be travesty on the
sending hither and thither of the
Savior from Annas to Caiaphas, from
Caiaphas to PLATE, from PLATE to
Herod, and from Herod to PLATE, for
these scenes In the Saviors life
formed the subject of the miracle play
performed at Easter, which usually oc-
ours In the month Of April. Others
think 1t more probable that 1t is
relic of some old, heather Celtic fes.

land and Germany derived the custom
from France. In France one thus i'm
posed upon is called 'un poisson
d'Arvil" Can April fish). In England
such person is called ''an April FOOL
in Scotland a gowk. Gowk is the
Scotch for cuckoo. and also signifies
foolish person.

INSISTED ON HAVING CANDY
Liberal Supply of carameIs Necessary
to Make Horse Pose for Statue
Of Lafayette.

Horses can be temperamental at
times, as Paul w. Bartlett, the sculp-
tor, found when he sought to induce a
high-spirited animal to pose quietly
in his West Fourth street studio, the
New York Evening Sun says. The
sculptor is now working on the statue
Of Lafayette, which is to be presented
to the city of Metz in France by the
Knights of Columbus.
An aristocratic as we'll as an artis-
tic horse was needed for reproduction
as Lafayette's mount. After some
searching, Mr.. Bartlett got in touch
with the proper animal and invited
him down to the studio. Part Of the
door and side of the building were re-
moved to get the horse into the
studio and when inside he promptly
knocked over several plaster casts of
considerable value, especially to the
artist.
After preliminary experiment Mr..
Bartlett was delighted to find that I'M
der the soothing spell of the caramel

stand contentedly chewing for long
periods while the willy sculptor trans
formed him INTO statue. so to speak.

Beautiful Martinique.

Martinique, where Is years ago &C.
Cured one of the worst volcanic dis
asters that human history has ever
known, is one of the important islands
of the West Indies retained by France
in the desperate fighting for their pos
session. The capital, Fort-de-F France,
is an amazingly picturesque town at
the head of a beautiful bay. Tourists
have been prompted to term Mar
Unique an ideal paradise. 1t is lotus
land of perpetual summer, with an
endless variety of highlands and low
lands. Martinique also has the serpent
of Eden, the dreaded fer de lance,
which is the only poisonous snake
found on any Of the islands north Of
Trinidad. II oftentimes grows to a
length of six feet, is quick and power
full, and its poison works almost in
simultaneously.

THE CUMMINGS SPEECH

The address delivered by Homer
s. Cummings in the democratic ma
tional convention in San Francisco
was an excellent effort from several
points of view. 1t was carefully
prepared, nicely arranged, and we'll
designed to impress the thoroughly
partisan audience to which it was
delivered. So far as the general
public is concerned the address will
scarcely cause a ripple on the sur
face. The radical and extremely
unreasonable statements and con-
illusions of Mr.. Cummings complete
ly nullify and neutralize their effect
on all those who are not strongly
partisan and already "het up with
party enthusiasm.
Two general conclusions of Mr..
Cummings are sufficient to reveal
the foundation of sand upon which
he promised his arguments. He
said: 1.-THE republican party was
unsuccessful in the elections of 1912
because 1t had persistently served
special interests and had lost touch
with the spirit of the time"
There is not an intelligent school
boy in the country who does not
know that the republican party was
defeated in 1912 because of the split
in its ranks. Woodrow Wilson was
elected not because of the principles
he represented nor the platform up
on which he was supposed to stand.
He was more than "a million votes
short Of the combined strength of
Taft and Roosevelt who were rivals
for republican favor.
Cummings in this address was the
spokesman for President Wilson. He
reiterated the claim that in all our
foreign relations including the franz
ing of the league of nations coven-
ant the president was speaking for
America. He completely overlooked
the fact that in the congressional
election before the writing of the
peace treaty Mr.. Wilson had asked
the people to make him the "unem-
barrassed spokesman" of the country
by electing democratic senate and
house of representatives. The peo-
pie returned a republican majority
in both houses in response to this
appeal. Mr.. Wilson ignored this
admonition. Cummings ignored It..
All Wilson's troubles have grown out
or his failure to respect public
opinion in his management of the
nations business.
Aside from the fact that Mr.. Cum
nrings built his castle on a founda-
tion of sand rather than the solid
rock of truth it is beautiful struc-
ture. And 1t accomplished its pur-
pose. 1t enthused the democrats
who heard it. In the country at
large it will pass into history as a
piece of political bunk.

Messages to Mars.

DR.. Charles P. Steinmetz estimates
that wireless station for the trans
mission of signals to Mars would cost
in the neighborhood of billion dol
lars, rather more than any enthusiast
would be willing to spend on the re-
mote chance of establishing such COM
munications.
The Sperryscope (Brooklyn) sug-
gests that transmission of signals by
light is entirely practicable. 1t
says:
''Presupposing that the Martians
possess telescopes which are at least
half as powerful as our own, our es-
innate is that some $50 or 200 of the
Sperry high intensity searchlights,
each over billion candlepower, would
oe sufficient for this purpose. If OPP
Grated together they would appear as
star of the seventh magnitude to
the inhabitants of Mars, and light of
such brilliance would. of course, be
easily discernible through telescope
in clear weather."
