JOHN BARRYMORE AT EMPRESS TONIGHT IN
 STRONG ATTRACTION

'The Test of Honor" gives to John Barrymore an unusually powerful ve- hicle for his fine dramatic talent Although the plot itself is an old one young mans career is ruined by the treachery of a woman, there is noth- ing hackneyed or commonplace in it's development. The story is full of interest, fascinating and compelling. The two leading women who support Mr. Barrymore are especially good, Constance Binney, who played in Sporting Life" and Marcia Manon, who had a role in "Old Wives and New"
 How he spent seven years in prison through a womans falseness; how he emerged with one idea, revenge; how the opportunity came and in the moment of it's realization he found real and lasting happiness as sweet as it was unexpected This forms the groundwork for the best and strongest picture that MT. Bar rymore has ever made. There are wonderful costumes, marvellous acting and well sustained interest of plot.

CENSUS OF FUR SEATS AGAIN
 10 BE TAKEN

SAN FRANCISCO, June fl (by Associated Press).-Dr. G. Dallas Hanna, member of the staff of the California Academy of Sciences, has just left here for Alaska where he will make a census of the fur seals on the Phibilof Islands under the direction of the United States bu. reau of fisheries.
 Dr. Hanna has been connected with this work each year since 1913. In 1919 it was reported that there were 540,000 animals in the herd. In 1910 when the government first took over the operation of the island industry there were less than 100000. During the time when this increase was taking place enough surplus and useless males have been killed and their skins sold at auc- tion to provide the national treas ury with $3,500,000 above all ex-
 
 secretary of the California Academy of Sciences.
 The purpose of the census is chiefly to determine how many ami malls can be safely removed each year and still provide for a maxi mum percentage of increase of the herd. If the increase in 1920 con- tinues as heretofore, it is said there should be about 6O0,00O of these amphibious fur bearers, by far the largest herd in existence, as we'll as surplus of about 30,000 males which can be killed for their skins. At current prices of these furs they will be valued at about $3,000,000.
 Since the cost of operation will be less than s2O0,OOO it is quite evident that this industry is one of the best, if not the best financial enterprise the government has," said Mir Sergeant, "and it is capable of almost unlimited expansion provid- ed the females are protected at sea and the surplus males are removed from the herd. The fighting of such males on the crowded rookeries causes a large mortality among the females and young.
 'The carcasses of the animals kill ed were formerly allowed to waste but last year a by-products plant was put in operation by means of which it is expected very super for oil and animal meal will be placed on the market. The census which will be taken in 1920 will enable a close approximation to be made of the quantities of these pro- ducts which will be available in the immediate future"

Nashville Man Is
Still Puzzled by
Peculiar Train Swap

NASHVILLE, Tenn, July 31.-Two
trains, one from Texarkana, Ark,
bearing John Thompson, Jr., wealthy
Nashville construction engineer,
whose mysterious disappearance
Thursday night en- route from Mem
phis to Nashville, caused a statewide
search, and the other bearing Mrs.
John Thompson with "a full suit of
clothing" for her husband, were
speeding toward Memphis tonight,
where the once missing husband ana
six hours of suspense.
:, According to latest Information
Thompson was still unable to account
for his transfer from the eastbound
Memphis-Nashvfl1e train to the west
bound Iron Mountain train, but it
was thought that he made the trans
fer while his sleeping car was in
the trainshed at the Memphis sta
ton. Thompson was i'll at the time
of his disappearance and as he was
subject to delirium when feverish
1t was thought he boarded the wrong
train after leaving his berth in the
drawing room for a breath of fresh
air
When found on the Iron Mountain
train the engineer was clothed only
in his underwear, the rest of his
clothing was brought to Nashville
well, who occupied the drawing room
with him Thursday night.
