SIS, ooo,ooo.oo BOND THEFT PLOT
ANTICIPATED BY ROY L. Nc.
cARDELL IN HIS STORY OF
THE EVIL EYE"

One of the most remarkable cases
of coincidence ever brought to notice
is remarked in the fact that Roy L.
McCardelrs story of THE Evil Eye"
playing at the Lincoln, Friday, May
10, in which the lightweight cham
pion, Benny Leonard, has the star
hole, is absolutely identical with the
front page accounts in the daily news
papers Of the five million dollar bond
theft conspiracy in Wall street, which
are attracting the attention of the en-
tire world.
Every detail Of this gigantic plot
was anticipated in The Evil Eye
Roy McCardell, in his story, tells of
every move made later by the gang
Of criminals who had plotted to OBJ
tain millions by the holy-up method;
Of the great Master Mind" who d.
rected the gangs daring operations;
and Of the courageous messenger
whose pluck and quick wit served to
bring the band to grief and landed
them behind prison bars where they
now await trial.
That Roy McCardell should have Sc
accurately foretold every OF
the most powerful ring of criminals
ever banded together is little short
of uncanny. Sir Oliver Lodge and
DR.. A. Conan Doyle may be very pro
ficient in communicating with the
spiritual world, but Roy McCardells
wonderful forecast of events to tran.
spire in his story of The Evil Eye
lifts him far beyond the realm OF
spiritualism and puts him on a pedes'
tai in the supernatural class as being
the most wonderful prognosticator OF
all times.
Benny Leonard, who has the star
role in The Evil Eye" that of the
messenger who thwarts every scheme
of the men higher up and the master
mind in their efforts to make the most
colossal coup in the annals of Grim
inology, will be first seen in Below
the Dead Line the first episode Of
the The Evil Eye" to be presented
at the Lincoln Theatre, Thursday
May 18th.

king INTERVIEWS

Result of Communication
With Lloyd George at
I LuCerne Unknown.

GENEVA. August 2S (by the Asso-
ciated Press).-It is understood that
King George was in direct communi-
cation with Premier Lloyd George at
Lacerne yesterday on the subject of
the Lord Mayor of Cork. who is re-
ported to be dying in Brixton prison,
London.
The results of the Intervention of
the king are not known. although it
is stated there is little chance of the
king using his prerogative of Glenn
ency while Mr.. Lloyd George remains
firm in his determination not to in
terfere.
The report that Sir Hamar Green
wood, chief secretary for Ireland. had
brought an ultimatum from the Irish
administration is declared to be un-
true. The premier and the secretary.

mind upon a policy of temporization

kameneff concerning the withdrawal
of the civil militia clause. Later at
Lucerne. after. at the Minsk confer

had been newly formulated by the
bolshevists. so that he regarded it as
less offensive, Lloyd George was
1noved toward the old policy and rup-

existence of Poland. AS there is not
the slightest chance that Poland
would accept them after her great
victory there is the probability that
after all the Russians will decide to
cancel the military clause so as to
make il more difficult for the British
government to dismiss them without
risking conflict with the British
working classes.
Lloyd George to End Parleys.
I was told in London that Lloyd
George is quite determined to put an
end TO parleys with the bolshevists
and resist the socialist claim of direct
action, even though this bold pro-
~siure might endanger his premier
slip by precipitating a general cleo
ton for the final settlement of the
whole issue. The ground of his re-
sistance is neasurablv solid, as the

The lesson which is drawn from all

men is that while maintaining out
wardly their previous attitude to-
ward Germany and Russia, they must
take definite care not to make the
task of Lloyd George harder than it
is in his home politics. In these cir

recognizing Wrangel must be con-
sidered with great care, whatever may
be the plain merits of his case.

future the moral of the incident ought
not to be forgotten. AS it is. the work
which Millerand has to perform IN or

of France is of stupendous difficulty,
because he is confronted by the con-
slant danger either of complete isola :

claims under British pressure. The

subject of bitter French regret, as
her active cooperation would power

payment of half of the French loan of
1915, are carried into effect.
