The story. which is from the pen Of
Elaine Sterne, one of the most prolific
writer's of screen material. deals with
the career OF young man who. al
though without friends. money or
education. is inspired by the an
oaenchable fires of ambition. He is,
when the story starts, foreman in a
large steel mill. He conceives an
idea how to utilize a hitherto waste
by-product of the iron ore and, the
scheme being practical. 1t is adopted
by the company which employs hina,
His fortunes rapidly rise in conse-
onence. bnr ne still realizes his lack
OF polish and education.

schempr, and she plans to marry him
in order to get his money. Failing in
this. she attempts to ruin him both

of politics. which he has recently en-
tered. There is battle OF both
muscle and mind. but in the end Bill

DECISION CUT LEGAL TAN0LE
Point involved in English Lawsuit
Seems hardly Worth the Time
and Money Expended.

On the last day Of the last month
In the year 1909 very curious legal
battle was fought between the English
crown and gentleman. lord of the
manor of Holderness; 1t was strug-
gle for a cask of wine thrown upon
the seashore on the coast Of that par
tleular manor.
The lords balliffs and The customs
officers beth raced 20 the spot and the
contending parties each laid hold OF
the cask. Then the officers decided
20 so back 70 the custom house for
aairther Instructions, and during their
absence the bailiffs removed the cask
TO the cellar OF. the manor house.
AT the trial the arguments on both
sides were very siearned and exceed
ingly lengthy. The decision OF the
court was In favor of the ford on the
grounds that no permit is required TO
remove spirits unless 1t has paid duty !;
that wine TO be liable to duty must
be imported; that wine cannot be Inn
ported by Itself, but requires the
agency OF someone else to do It; that.
therefore, wine wrecked, having come
on shore by itself or without human
volition or intention. was not import
ed, and was not subject to duty, and
did not require a permit for its re-
