took place at Chareton in St. Mary Par
ish, which cost the life of a woman from
Abbeville. It seems she was in the com
pany of two men from this City, being
picked up at Jeanerette by the men while
out on joy ride and the party were on
their way to the beach. When reaching
the bridge that spans the Teche, it was
open so that approaching boats could pass
as is the custom after certain hours each
night when there are no attractions.
The Ford car with its occupants dropped
down into the Bayou bringing all of the
occupants with it as it disappeared under
the water. According to reports given
out by people who live near the bridge
one of the men swan to the opposite side
of the Teche, while the other managed
to crawl on the embankment near the
car, almost exhausted. They both called
for help and alarmed the neighborhood.
The unfortunate woman lost her life. The
auto was found bottom upwards at day.
break the next morning. and after search
ing for several hours on Tuesday the
body of the woman was found at four
o'clock in the afternoon. It is said that,
she hailed from Abbeville, and was
visitor to Jeanerette where she had been
induced to get into the car by her two
male companions. The water at point
where the car was precipitated into the
stream is some II feet deep. After the
accident both of the men managed to
get back to New iberia and Immediately
went to their homes where they have
been every since. The next morning
after the accident the news spread like
wide fire and it was several hours before
it could be found that the woman was
from Abbeville and not New Iberia. It
was reported that the ST. Mary officials
got into touch with the woman's relatives

eTHE INSIDE OF THE CUP"
x 81, 3 MAKES HIT. AT THE GRAND

A remarkable picture, filled with
exceptionally dramatic scenes, the
story thoroughly human that was
the verdict of big audience which
witnessed the first display of 1.-THE
inside of the Cup" at the Elko theater
last night. The opinion was a just
one, for this Paramount-Cosmopo
tan production is one of the best seen
at this theater in many months.
: When Winston Churchill's famous
novel OF the same name was publish
ed in 1913, 1t was bitterly criticized
by clergymen as being an unwarrant-
ed attack upon the cloth. While the
philosophy of the novel is exploited
to some extent In the picture. this
necessarily has been subordinated to
the dramatic interest of the story it,
self the result being a delightfully."-
captivating picture, which will please
almost any film fan. n
& The picture which was excellently
produced by Albert Capellani, and
the players chosen for the various
=, roles, are far above the average in
point of intelligence and artistry.
The Representations by William P.

be made of the efficient support given

Mr.. Abrahamson has taken for his

still acts as the cement that holds
these two tremendous institutions,

He tells his story SO graphically
and 80 convincingly that with the
opening of the first reel the attention
OF the audience is SO deeply engross
ed that every individual lives with
the players ON the screen, feels their
joys and suffers their SORROWS.
Il It is the opinion Of the reviewer
that instead of setting down the
STORY as it Is told on the screen for
the benefit of our readers it were
best that everyone who can manage

as to films popularity here since this

real lovers Of the human side OF life.
r. Shortly after completing "The
Scoffer," Mr.. Dwan issued a state
fment in which he announced that he
had made every possible effort to
avoid the theatric in presenting this
theme and he publicly thanked the
