MAY ALLISON STARS IN
BIG NEW METRO PICTURE

1.-THE Marriage of VIM. Ashe," star
ring May Allison, will be the feature
attraction at the Kenworthy Theatre
beginning Thursday This new Metro
production is announced by competent
authorities to be one Of the outstand-
ing dramitic pictures of the year, and
one of the best in which the STAR Miss
Allison, has yet been SEEN.
! The scenic investitute of the pro-
duction is on a scale sufficiently law
ish to classify it with the super
special pictures of the season, which
excellently compliments the strong
dramatic story, in which is portrayed
the struggles of a brilliantly clever
young woman against the machina-
tons of unscruplous political enemies.
Miss Allison will be seen in the role
of Lady Kitty Bristol, who flees from
the convent in which she has been
placed by her parents and travels to
London, where at length she makes
the acquaintance Of William Ashe, the
Secretary for Home Affairs in the
British Cabinet, and subsequently
marries him. Following her mar
riage to Ashe and their honeymoon
abroad, Lady Kitty meets Cliffe, a
radical, who poisons her mind with
policical intrigue against the party of
her husband.
Influenced by .Cliffe, Lady Kitty
publishes book dealing with affairs
of state, and is then discovered in the
apartment of Cliffe by her husband.
She strives to square herself, how
ever, but is prevented by Ashe. She
then returns to the convent from
which she fled, only to be found there
some time later by .Ashe, who forgives
and loves her.
Supporting Miss Allison in the role
of Lady Kitty are Wyndham Stand
ing, Zeffie Tillbury, Frank Elliott,
Robert Boulder, Lydia Yeamans Titus
and Clarissa Selwynne. Ruth Ann
adapted the picture and Ed
ward Sloman directed it, under the
supervision of Bayard Veil

licity to the awful blunders which
have been made. Has it, too, beer
coerced, and is the Federal Reserve
Board, with it's gunner and Apaches,
driving the nation into another Jack
son fight to restore the financial lib
critics of the people?
And now we have the governor of
the Federal Reserve Board, when
branded by the supreme court with
having waged warfare against the
state banks and with operation of a
generally lawless policy, putting out a
statement purporting, except to ex-
perts to mean that he will not cease
from that warfare but will continue in
arrogant lawlessness. There is the
spirit, if not the fact, of bolshevism
in the pronouncement. Much power
has made the man mad. He has been
so long the master he has forgotten
he is a servant. "This divine-right
thing" testifies a banker, "descends
upon people very insidiously. The min
ute they get the authority they get

they say should be done, must be
done and anybody who dares to con-
tradict that becomes a criminal" It.

has not only overruled the Congress
Of the United States by forcing on

Of orders not to; he has not only set
himself up as an arbiter of prices
and by deliberate intent broken the
markets and pursued policy which
Abraham Lincoln denounced afore-
line as dishonest and criminal; he
las not only set in motion his des-
'eradoes to destroy the state banking
system in the United States in order

ide in himself and he become an

the punishment of the law, or failing

WHY UMPIRES STICK
TO FIRST DECISION
Reversal Would Mean Loud Pro-
tests and Delays.
Few Games Woulu Go Beyond First
Inning If Arbiters Were to Pay
Heed to Arguments and Proofs
Presented by Players.

Entirely too many fans have an
idea that unpires stick to their bad
decisions out of sheer bulheadcd-
ness. Those fans are almost invari-
ably wrong Every umpire time and
again In the season understands i'm
flash, after he has decided one way,
that he should have decided another,
but if he reversed himself, thus en-
couraging kicks, protests and delays,
he would lose his Job in short order,
writes Tom Rice in the Brooklyn
Eagle
Very few fans stop to consider why
the rule against umpires reversing
themselves on decisions of fact is al
most as unalterable as the laws Of
the Medes and Persians, but the rule
is absolutely necessary If any ball
game is to be finished in less time
than is required for one o. those
three-day cricket matches.
If umpires were to heed arguments,
proofs and figures and reverse them
selves, they would do nothing but hold
court, and few ball games would go
ill'l = NiIbl 'llc lllIlllE, bN tuOuSl us
puted decisions would ordinarily arise
in the first round to keep the ump
engaged all the rest of the afternoon.
Long and painful experience has
taught the powers that be t. baseball
that It IS better to lay it down as n
definite principle that an umpire shall
stick by his decision, even when he
realizes on second thought that he
was wrong, than it is to encourage
the players in the belief that II they
talk long and loudly enough they can
persuade him to reverse himself.
While cases occasionally arise in
which an umpire would be justified in
reversing himself, such reversal,
based upon new evidence, so to speak,
would lead to interminable argu-
ments and proffers of new evidence
upon all close plays.

Wall Street Once More Puts Her
QuietuS on Man Who Was
Too Ambitious.
HIS STORY IS SENSATIONAL
Nephew of Colonel Guffey, Who Made
and Lost Many Fortunes, Himself
Did Some Very Spectacular
Things With Oil Stocks.

New York.-When the directors re-
signed the other day and the Tide
water Oil company, a Standard Oil
subsidiary, thus got control of the
Gutfey-Gillespie Oil company, insiders
knew Wall street once more had writ
ten "fnis" to the career Of a man who
''bit off more than he could chew"
The victim was Joe Guffey more
formally Joseph f. Guffey of Pitts
burgh and fully described thus:
President Of the Guffey- Gillespie Oil
company, with leases covering 100000
acres in the Mid-Continent and Texas
fields.
President of the Atlantic Gulf Oil
corporation, controlled by the Atlantic,
Gulf Il West Indies Steamship lines
and operating around Tampco.
President Of the Colombia syndicate,
controlled by Gulfey-Gillespie and
"Agwi" and owning million acres Of
oil lands along the Magdalena river IN
South America.
Director of Reliance Life Insurance
company and several Pittsburgh
banks.
Democratic national committeeman
from Pennsylvania promoter and
"ange% of A. Mitchell Palmer's last
presidential boom.
Former director Of sales for the
alien property custodian.
Uncle Lost Many Fortunes.
Back of this announcement lies
story seldom equaled in American
business and political biography. 1t
parallels the story of another Guffey of
a preceding generation. For Joe Cuff
Fey is nephew of old Col. James NJ.
Guffey, also Of Pittsburgh, said to have
made and lost more fortunes in oil
than any other person In the United
States.
BY 1919 when the partnership was
recognized as the Guffey Gillespie Oil
company, it had become one of the
largest in the mldcontinent field. In
addition, Guffey & Gillespie, with 9TH
er Pittsburghers, acquired 125,0O0

able trade is a question.
Undersecretary of State Paisant,
discussing the question with Amerl-
cans, proposes publicity as a remedy.
He has invited American visitors to
join in a protest which will be pub
lished in the Paris press, and he also
will take up personally individual
cases Of extortion brought to his at
tention.
The most frequent causes Of com
plaint are charges for lodgings in ho-
tells and apartments. Mr.. Paisant told
the Americans he had decided to ask
hotels to publish their rates In the
papers. This remedy would not, how
ever, affect apartments, which are the
subject of prohteering on scale
hitherto unknown.
There are very few unfurnished
apartments to let, according to the
real estate agencies; as fast as
vacated by tenants, they are trans
formed into furnished apartments aud
