In presenting 1.-The Saphead' as to. nights feature, the Empress 2a- sures it's patrons an unusual treat The play is Wnchell Smiths adap- tation of thrilling story Of high finance in Wall Street and the grip ping force of womans love.
 William II. Crane, the dean of American actors, appears in a role well suited to his great skill as an unCtious comedian. Co-starring with him is Buster Keaton, famous for his inimitable slap-stick comedies. and who appears as the wealthy New York "saphead" son of the old Wall Street magnate.
 It's gripping, thrilling, absorb ing play. with all the zest and eX- citement of high finance, mingled with touches of brilliant comedy it stands for the high water mark in comedy drama. a play in which the charaCterizations are so vivid and compelling that they will live before you on the screen.
 Don't overlook seeing The Saphead' either tonight or tomorrow,-it's well worth seeing.

|WHO WAS THE
 LAST MAN KILLED
 TN THE GREAT WAR?

Indianapolis, Ind, Dec. 17-Who was the last American soldier killed in action?
 The American Legion, endeavoring to learn the identity of the last to fall. is receiving many claims at it's na- tional headquarters here. The French government will erect a monument to the last man killed.
 The case of a sergeant of the 79th Division who tried to capture the last German machine gun of the war has been offered to-Legion headquarters by Major Albert r. Rich of the regu- lar army.
 It was north of verdun on the morning of November II, 1918, that the incident cited by Major Rich occurred. A first sergeant of an in fantry company, aspiring to take the last Boche gun, left his lines at 10:5 o'clock, just five minutes before the war ended.
 The sergeant was killed perhaps a minute before the armistice, immedi- ately in front of the gun he was try ing to capture. At II o'clock sharp the German officer in charge of the gun directed four of his men to pick up the doughboy and carry him to the American lines.
 Col. William H. Oury was in com mand of the regiment to which the ported, and General W. J. Nicholson commanded the division. Col. Oury l is now stationed with the 14th Infan- try in the Canal Zone and Gen. Mich | olson is in Washington. The identity of the sergeant and the company to which he belonged were not learned 1 by Major Rich.
