moving lover the Hill" continuously until it was finally presented at six different theatres on Broadway. It must be remembered also that lover the Hill' was presented in leading first class Broadway theatres, at the top scale of $2 forN the best seats, and for many weeks this single at traction playing daily matiness drew the remarkable gross business oe more than s22,000 per week. These figures are absolutely accurate and have been the marvel of all who have been familiar with the presentation of feature pictures on Broadway.
 The story of over the HilIa deals with a mother, acted by Mary Carr. who enaeavors to raise her children in the path of righteousness, and with that tnd in view she makes every sacrifice so that her children may have the proper schooling and comforts. Unfortunately, her hus- band is genial goodfor- nothing. who even goes so far as to become involved in crime rather than work. In the family there are four broth CTS and two sisters. John, the black sheep os the family. is a lovable. narum- -scarum boy.- who Is constant ly getting into mischief, while Isaac. the eldest, is cad and a hypoerite.
 Finally the children are grown to manhood and begin life's occupa- tions. The two sisters marry Isaac, the cad, becomes a prosperous busi- ness man, and only John, the black sheep, is left alone with his mother. although he, too, has a sweetheart. The father, careless, lazy and good for-nothing, is accused of horse stealing. and circumstances are such that to protect his father from going to jail, John takes upon himself the burden of the crime. It almost breaks the heart of his mother and of his pretty sweetheart when he is sent to prison for crime he did not commit. but the weak father. hesitating to confess the truth, per mits the sacrifice.
 Three years pass. John is released from prison and comes back home to find his father is dead, his mother has been neglected by all of the other children, and the .hypocritical Isaac has even appropriated for his own use the money that should have gone to support his aged mother. She has even been evictcd from her own home and sent to the poorhouse. How John comes to the rescue, saves his mother from poverty. punishes his hypocritieal brother and drags him through the streets. is told in vivid and dramatic scenes. Johns faith ful sweetheart, ever confident of his innocence. welcomes him with open arms, and it is a happy home indeed when the mother returns to her old home to find that even though some of her children may have neglected her the black sheep turns out to be the only white one, all wool and yard wide.

CHARLIE CHAPLIN IN "THE IDLE CLASSv--TRIAN

Charlie Chaplin Is a constant de- light in his two comedy roles in The Idle Class" These two roles are a tramp of very gentlemanly tendencies and proneness to idleness and ill., gotten pleasures and an absent-mind- ed man really of the society set.
 The two roles work about and to- gether for comedy and it is hard to tell which is the most amusing. pos sibly the tramp is for the reason that we see more of him only, for Chaplin as the absent minded society man Is also a treat And as 1t turns out in the excellent story, with It's many comedy twists and almost q plot, the tramp does about as much society as the society chap, only he doesn't do 1t quite so well.
 At any rate, it can safely be said here that the promise that Charlie's two roles would only double the fun is true and between the duties of both roles the beloved Charlie Is kept con stantly in the limelight--which is the very thing Chaplin fans want most.
 With the Chaplin picture Is shown an excellent comedy drama, which fills out an unusually attractive bill for this house. The other picture Is "All Is Fair in Love-" and deals with the old subject of vampires from a new angle1 The experiences of 2 young and very pretty, wife who be- lieves herself being supplaDted in her husbands heart by a "vamp," make the story. The young wife Is pre- sented as q wholesome. sweet young thing, who should never worry over the antics of the griggling, snakey
 vampire In the final youtcome the wife learns, but she suffers tortures and nearly makes a goose of herself initiating the vamp ere she does

Curly" Is witty, alert, en- gaging, full of nonsense and very worth while at heart. Bert Lytel, one of the most handsome and debonaire actors of the film world, enacts this part and puts into 1t all of these qualities that the story call for in Curly" and that are really found in Lytel himself. With the star is Virginia Valli. and small cast of able actors.
 In a photoplay that deals principal ly with the great amusement center, there is to be found views and scenes of amusements that are interesting in themselves. Also Lytel has very human and appealing story mostly of light. humorous tone, but in parts deeply serious as when he is caught in his first and last attempt at dis honesty and risks his life to save his victim. Along here the story grows more dramatic, but as whole 1t seems that it should be called happy go-lucky.
 The love theme of "A Trip to Para disc" is a tender one. Curly the barker" meets a girl and in one aft ernoon loses his job for her and then marries here. It is an easy matter for a successful Darker" to get work, but there are complications that Curly has to face that make things more difficult than he had antici- pated.
 With the feature Is shown Fox News.

ISIS HoPKINsv MAKES
 HIT AT MAJESTIC

Sis Hopkins" a rural play in four acts, was presented at the Majestic theatre last night to capacity audi ence, with Mae Park in the title role. Rose Melville won her fame in the role played by Miss Park and 1t was remarked by those in the audience who had witnessed both actresses In the same part, that Miss Park fitted the role to a nicety. This play Is a stock company classic and smacks Of nature from beginning to the final curtain.
 Those who witnessed the perform ance stated that 1t was presented with the customary artistry of the Maddocks-P Park stock company and reflected considerable credit upon both Frank L. Maddocks, who pro- duced it, and Sam Park, who directed the play.
 If 1t took any one play to make a stock company 1t Is said that this play would make" the Maddocks- Park company. However, this com pany has long been regarded as Birmingham institution.
 Sam Park handled the comedy role with great success. Jack Holmes scored hit in his part, as usual Myrtle Bigden, Marie Davidson. Karl Hackette, Jack Motte and James Stone were all splendid in their respective parts

songs and lots of fun over the an swers of the thick headed pupils make this lively act, punctuated by many laughs.
 Bruce Morgan and Moran Thomas are a snappy couple of comedy en- tertaineDs and present an act Of breeziness. Here is an unusual thing, a couple together, and one as comical as the other, for 1t Is only a matter of opinion which is the best wit of the two. Lots of non sense and the supreme confidence of real ability characterize this act, which came near being riot.
 The bicycle act in the last spot Is different in having an overwhelmingly funny clown like comedian with voice that would alone get the laughs. This comedian's antics on wheels and the generally fine work hold the audience until the drop or the final curtain.
 In addition to vaudeville fine Aesop Fable cartoon and news.

quest of United States District Attorney
George w. Coles for A K. Slater. former
secretary to Mcconnell. and Hiram w
Benner, formerly agent in charge of per-
mits for liquor Withdrawals. Both are

fraudulent permits
Permits Issued Before Change
According to prohibition officers here,
the permits were issued promiscuously
when it became known in Washington
that radical changes were to be made in
the enforcement personnel of PennSyI-
vania. Stores were said to have been
withdrawn from diStilleries in New York,
New Jersey, Maryland. Kentucky, Hi
nois, Indiana and Pennsylvania, some of
which were seized by New York and Phil
adelplna enforcement agents before they
could be delivered. Others known to be
on the way are expected to be seized mo
meutarily.
One shipment of 700 barrels of alco-
hol, containing $4,000 gallons, was seized
in New York city, it was announced. The
value of this shipment alone would ex-
coed S50O,O00 based on the prevailing
price of alcohol, and the bo0tleggerS
price. the authorities said, would put its
ultimate valRe beyond S1.00O.GO0 Off
Gals declared last night the government
tax on this shipment woulu exceed $780,

A second shipment, from Pekin, H.,
was seized at a railroad station here last
night. 1t contained 1000 cases of liquor.

Much of the liquor alleged to have been
withdrawn already has been delivered, of
ficialS said. and efforts viii be directed
toward its recovery. The shipment
seized here was addressed to the manu-
facturer Of a patent medicine, who denied
any knowledge Of it having been ordered.

permits had been issued under his sigma
ture. Mcconnell expressed surprise.
