him to his corner believing that he
had beaten the count in the 18th.
Dempsey said: Brennan stood up
longer than | thought he would. His
blows did not hurt me at any time
but found him a hard man to hit
properly. Dempsey's manager said
the champion was not in the best
of condition having trained too hard.

JURY AWARDS
MRS. VANCE
SIS DAMAGES
Standard Oil Co. Seeks to
Recover Gas Tank from
Harry D0lgin

The evidence in the Vance-W Weeks
ejectment case in Caledonia county
court was completed Tuesday after
noon and the arguments made. Judge
Chase charged the jury the first thing
when court assembled Wednesday
morning. After two hours deliber-
alton the jury returned verdict in
favor of Mrs. Vance to recover $30.
B. S. Eastman Of Groton was fore
man Of the jury.
The next case called was that Of
the Standard Oil Co. of New York
against Harry Dolgin Of st. Johns
bury. The plaintiff Company was
represented by Searles and Graves
and the defendant by Shields and Co
nant.
The jury was made up with but
two challenges. The panel was as
follows: John Bradford, Frank D..
Brcwe., M. V. Z. Dow, W. A. East
man, A. A. Goodrich, W. n. Hub
bard, l.. E. Johnson, +. r. Kimball,
George Knox, G. G. Nuttcr, Frank
Shaw, c. B. Stevens.
In this case the company seeks
to recover the value Of an 800-gal-
lon gasoline storage tank. This tank
was in the ground on the premises
on Portland street, Dolgin purchas-
ed of Healcy and Allen last summer
and was first placed there in 1914.
The defendants testimony went TO
prove that this tank was in its To-
cation and operation on this property
under the usual loan agreement and
that when the company's representa-
tives attempted to take it away they
were forbidden as Dolgin claimed he
owned it. 1t was later removed by
a writ of replevin.
The defendants testimony was to
the effect that he purchased the tank
as a part of the realty and the
question at issnc in part is to estab
lish the real status of this piece of
personal property and whether or
not gas tank, just because it is
planted in the ground and covered
with cement and turf, ceases to be

cr is II years old and Ross is 70.
They were excused. S. A. Stebbins

challenges and must now accept any

"The Great Redeemer."

In presenting it's third great super
program of the current theatrical
season, which will be shown for tho
first time in Washington tomorrow at
o'clock, Loew's Columbia Theater
offers n double bill of brilliant power
and unusual entertainment value.
This program is dominated by Mau-
rice Tourneurs epic dramatic
achievement, The Great Redeemer,"
based on III. II. Van Loans story and
featuring House Peters and Mar
jorie Daw.
The extra added attraction OF sur
passing merit will be Buster Keaton's
Arst comedy production. "One Week"
a production that Is confidently ex-
pected to mark new departure in
the field of screen comedy.
Tourneur's screen version OF "The
Great Redeemer" Is story of n
mans weakness and girls great
love. 1t attains gathering force
throughout it's development, and cul-
inmates in n climax of absolutely as
founding sweep and almost unprece-
dented surprise.
1t is a story of n mans misdeeds
that became a tool in the hands OF
Providence and wrought not only an
overwhelming change in his life. but
subtly altered the lives OF those
about him.
IL Is altogether doubtful ~ Tour
neur has ever given the screen a pro-
duction that will rival this, his latest

unusual cast that includes also Jack
