Dftmas Attractions

The old saying of that famous cir
Gus philosopher. Phineas 7. Bar
mum. that there was a fool born
every minute, has been made the
groundwork of a clever and enjoy
able comedy, zone a Minute" star
ring Douglas MacLean. which was
shown with no slight success at the
Ditmas theatre last night. Mr.. Mac
Lean is seen as a druggist who, to
get ahead of a syndicate which is
trying to- close him up. perfects a
patent medicine and successfully de-
fes the syndicate. But he is put on
trial for violating the drug law and
to be acquitted when ne
cures the judge. When he is asked
to tell what his patent medicine con-
tains-well. it wouldn't be fair to
tell what he said. The comedy Is
decidedly worth while.
Judging by the success with which
the audience greeted Hearts Are
Trumps'' at the first showing yester-
day in the Ditmas theatre, it is not
too much to predict that the picture
will be one of the outstanding pic
lures Of the year.
The plot has twists that keep n
audience puzzled and delighted at
the same time. 1t deals with a card
game where the stake is a nobleman.s
daughter. She has secretly welded
forester. who is called in and lashed
by the fathers keepers. The out
ragged woodman believes his wife is
responsible, waits twenty years I'LL
he is rich and then gets his revenge:
Their child is the center around
whom the drama of vengeance re-

COSTLY TO BE INSULTING

In the opinion of Recorder Harold
T.. Pickersgill it costs $40 to elevate
ones hand and place it in position
before the nasal a%ppendage, weighing
the fingers in a manner that can
never be other than the height of
insult. Such at any rate, was the
penalty imposed upon Morris Me-
chanik. of $50 State street, in police
court this morning. Mechanic was
arrested upon complaint of a woman
who runs a store on State street,
1t was said that Mechanic had
parked his car in front of the store
for periods in excess of the stipula-
ted time allowed by city law. Ask
ed to remove his machine from be-
fore the establishment. it was said
by the complainant that the man
carried out the insulting gesture de-
scribed above and refused to move.
He was arraigned on a charge of
violating the city ordinance and fined
$40.
