"OFF-SHORE PIRATE" NOW p
AT LYRIC THEATER

Finished to the last touch,
asparkle with brilliant character

are the slight adumbrations to de-
scribe ones impression of Viola
Dana in 1.-THE Off-Shorc Pirate"
the Metro special production which
had its first showing yesterday
afternoon and last night at the
Lyric theater, and which is being
repeated TODAY for the last time.
Everyone who came to the pic
ture knew they were going to he
treated to something exceptional,
for Viola Dana, the irrpressible,
lovely actress, is supreme in artis
try.
As Ardita Farnam, the capriciOus
young heiress who is bored TO death
with a host of suitors, and who is
innocently trapped by a worldly
schemer of a Russian, searching
for rich American wife, she fairly
dazzled all fho beheld her. so win
some is she. The story deals with
the efforts of Ardita's friends to
shield her. from the foreigner. The
method is a modern pirate and as
motley a band of Cut-throats as
ever stroked boards and cursed, in
days when victims walked the
plank.

cludes Jack Mulhall, Edward job
son and Edward Cecil. Dallas NJ
Fitzgerald directed the production,
which was adapted from The Sat-
urdav Evening Post story by Dallas

the photography, and A. F. Mantz

fects.

FORMER ALBUQUERQUE
BOY WRITES OF LIFE
SEEN IN IQUlQUE, S. A.

]. Ernest Chavez, son OF Julian
Chavez, Of 319 North Fourth street,
who went last October to Chill,
where he is representative for the
Tngorsol Watch company, writes
from Iquique and describes its
beauties. 1.-The hotel where we arc
staying Is out on one end of the
city, right on the beach. The water
from the ocean comes right under
the dining ROOM he says. ''as this
is built high above the sea. 1t is
all very pretty. Ono can 60 bath
ing right here without going out
very far"
"There is big carnival and cele-
bration here now and a swell dance
in our hotel every night as this is
the place where all the wealthy
people in the city have their din
ners and dances and hanquets. The
big carnival doings are all on a
wide paseo which begins at the
hotel and extends out a long way
all along the beach. The whole
paseo is lit up and hundreds of
people walk around throwing con-
fetti and having a general good
time"
| Chavez was leaving for Antofa To-
gasta, south of lquique, and a
larger, more modern and prettier
city, according to reports, he said.
Chavez stated that it is much
cheaper to live in Chill; that a
Icouple can live well ON SIS n
month and that salaries are better;
"a man may earn from $500 to $500
a month. Americans who have
good. positions can save a lot of
money in a short time"

AUTO RECOVERED BY
SHERIFF WHO BRINGS
BACK TWO PRISONERS

f. S Gregory, employee of the
Belen Harvey house. and Ed Tree
ter were brought back to Albu-
querQue last night by officials of
the sheriff's department on a
charge of stealing the Overland au-
tomobile belonging to e. L. Capt
of Los Lunas. which was taken
from its parking place in front of
Rosenwald's store at o'clock yes
terday afternoon. Capt left his car
near Central avenue on Fourth
street about noon, When he re-
turned at Q o'clock it was gone, He
Immediately notified the city po-
lice and the county sheriffs office.
A description of the car was
wired to all of the neighboring
towns by the police. Sheriff
Tandry was reading the wire at
Los Lunas when the car flashed
through the town. He gave chase
and caught Gregory and Treeter at
Belen. Both boys were placed UNI
der arrest and a wire notified local
officials of the recovery of the car.
Sheriff's officials Immediately
started for Belen in company with
Mr.. Capt, who identified. the car.
The two boys will be given a
preliminary hearing this morning.
1t is said that Treeter did not know
that the car was a stolen one ana
that he simply rode down to- Belen
with Gregory.

FREIGHT RATES
! HEARING GIVEN
TOCAT TLEMEN
Interstate Commission.
Grants Hearing for March
Il; New Mexico to Be Rep
r resented BY c. M. 0'DOne!

Members of the Interstate Com
fnerce Commission will hold a hear
ing in st. Louis on March q to de-
termine whether the 35 per cent
additional freight rate added last
August shall be temporarily sus-
pended for cattlemen in conformity
with the request of the western
cattle growers to cover a period Of
time required to finish the spring
cattle movement.
AS there will be a, heavy move
ment of cattle to and from feeding
ground this spring, the cattlemen
feel that the additional 35 per cent
freight rate will work a consider
able hardship on the growers of
the entire west. All state organiza-
lions in the larger cattle growing
states have petitioned the Interstate
Commerce Commission to suspend
the additional rate for the spring
shipment.
c. M. O'Donel, of the Bell ranch,
will represent New Mexico growers
at an informal meeting to be held
with the commission in Washington
prior to the commission hearing in
st. Louis. 1t is probable that the
matter will be completely threshed
out at the informal meeting and
that the action at the official hear
ing will simply follow the decision
reached at the Washington confer
fence. Mr.. O'Donel will report the
result of the hearing to the state
cattlemen at their annual cOnven-
tion to be held here the last three
days of March.

mean but one thing-higher prices.

FINE ROLE AT THE "B''

Billie Burke had her first eX-
perience in the chorus when scenes
of her latest vehicle "The Educa-
ton of Elizabeth" which will be
presented at the "B" theater today
for the last time, were filmed.
There have been numerous stage
and screen stars who have made
their way to stardom via the
"merry merry but Miss Burke is
not one of these. a
Miss Burke has the role of Eliza
beth Banks, chlorine" in a big
New York musical revue, and the
opening scenes of the production
show her at work with the com
pany. Being the wife of Flo Hieg-
field, the we'll known New York
theatrical manager, Miss Burke OBJ
tanned the most lavish revue for her
comedy that was ever seen in a mo-
ton picture studio. A complete
number from Ziegfeld's Midnight
Frolic" was transported to the set
with costumes which were remark
able for their artistic beauty.
Miss Burke was given one of the
prettiest costumes and never did
she look more charming than when
she took her place with the other
women. Donald Cameron is her
leading man and heads a strong
supporting cast

MAN KILLS SELF
IN ARROYO NEAR
HERE YESTERDAY
RomeIo GuardioIa, of Mar
tinez Town, Prepares Can
vas Couch in Sand and
Sends Bullet Into Skull

After carefully choosing a shell
tered arroyo three miles out on the
mesa and after making himself rs
comfortable as possible with a can
vas sheet spread over the soft sand
and his coat rolled up for a pillow,
Romolo Guardiola, of MARTINEZ
Town, blew the side OF his head off
with a high powered rifle bullet a
few minutes after noon yesterday
Guardiola is 80 years old and is
survived by wife ana two small
children, Domestic trouble is said
to have been the cause of his
pulling the fatal trigger,
According to his sister, Mrs. I'll
neto Chavez, who lives several
miles out on the mesa, he has been
acting queer for the past two or
three. days, but none Of the family
had any idea that he contemplated
suicide He went to his sisters for
dinner yesterday and Immediately
after eating the meal started home.
He had been gone fifteen or
twenty minutes when his sister
heard two shots. As she knew her
brother had a rifle and revolver
with him, she suspected some sort
of a tragedy and ran across the
mesa in the direction of the shots,
After searching for some time
she found her brother lying on a
piece of canvas in an arroyo. His
coat was rolled up to form a pillow,
but the large pool of blood which
was gradually soaking through the
canvas into the sand from the
frightful wound in his head. proved
that he had not prepared the couch
for a short sleep. The bullet from
his high powered rifle had entered
his head near the temple and TORI
away a large piece of skull as il
had passed through his head a.
The rifle had been rested agaips'
the sand when he pulled the trigger
as deep furrow was plowed BY
its butt when it recoiled. AS but
one shot entred his body, it is sup'
posed by the sheriffs department
which was notified Immediately oi
the tragedy, that his first sho!
missed. His revolver was in u hol,
ster and had not been fired.
Intentional suicide" was thu
verdict of the coroner, WHO held an
inquest shortly after the body wa
examined by officials of the sher-
ifs department.
All thought of the death result
| ing from an accident was dispellcd
when the following note was found
in the dead r1an's pocket:
Il kill myself to prove my
own innocense. Help me God
| forgive everyone"
Officials are puzzled over the
first sentence as he was under nc
official charge of crime. 1t is he
lieved that the sentence is directed
| at some personal accusation SOM
one has made against him.
