George ArAss Joins the LongListo of
Those Who Succun1bto the Movtes

George ArliSS, making MS screen
debut in The Devil" which will be
shown for the frst times locally as
chief feature Of the bills at Gran
dalps Metropolitan and Knickerbock-
er theaters, beginning tomorrow.
takes into his hand the destinies of
an artist, a model. a banker and his
wife. He has marked these people for
his own kingdom of misery. Out Of
their Truth and Goodness he would
create Evil. But. that Truth can. and
does overcome Evil, is one of the
points OF interest in this photoplay
triumph.
Having induced Mr.. Arliss to do
what he had long refused to do
make a moving picture-Associated
Exhibitors proceeded to make a pho
toplay that would reach the height of
perfection in its every detail.
The nrst step taken was to secure
Edmund Goulding to write the story
and James Young to direct. To in
sure the very best in stage settings
Charles K. Seessel. a designer and in
terior decorator, and his corps OF
trained architects and technicians
were engaged to create and construct
the stage settings. The photography
was put into the skilled hands of
Harry A. Fischbeck.
Tho cast is q small one, but every
role Is an important one and worthy
a star. Therefore, such well-known
artists as SYRIA Dreamer, Lucy
Cotton, Edmund Lowe. Roland Bot
tomley and Mrs. Arliss were engaged.
Suave, bantering. cynical; clever.
crafty. with subtle innuendoes, "The
Devil' was one of Mr.. Arliss' great
est stage Characterization. AS por-
trayed on the screen. it is a character
delineation to live and roll down the
years of photoplay history as an IN
depreciation without a peer.
The toys OF "The Devil" to be
played with and broken, were Lucy
Cotton as an heiress, Roland Bottom
ley as her fance and later her hus-
band; Edmund Lowe as an artist. and
Sylvia Dreamer as a model. Love
was the weapon he used to pierce
their hearts in anguish.
But "Satan trembles when he sees
the weakest saint upon her kncss."
One OF his toys was Truth, strong
enough to resist his Evil and win
happiness. not only for herself. but
the other puppets ensnared by the
devil in his diabolical scheme.
The Devil" is said to be one Of the
screens greatest dramatic achieve
ments, and the work Of Mr.. Arliss
naw1ess.
Hailed as a triumph OF photodra-
matte art. "The Devil" was one OF the
sensations OF the speaking stage. 1t
had its first presentation in Budapest
in 1907. and then in Vienna. The fol-
lowing season 1t invaded the theaters
OF every capital in Europe and created
furore wherever staged. In Amer
lea 1t had two productions-one by
David Belasco starring Mr.. Arliss, and
the other by Col. Henry w. Savage,
starring Edwin Stevens.
Mr.. Arliss, 1t will be remembered,
on the speaking stage, by the subtlety
and polish of his performance, won
the praise Of the critics of the coun-
try and the public. His screen inter-
probation Is no less poignant and
finished, while the production itself,
by virtue of it's artistry Of settings,
photography, lighting, direction and
acting, reaches the peak OF photodra-
matte art, and has been acclaimed one
Of the few really great pictures.

PLEA OF DESERT|ON
BY SCHA|BLt DENIED
is SENTENCED IN COURT FOR
GRAND LARCENY-GETS FROM
ONE TO FOURTEEN YEARS.

Joel Schaibel, 19 years old, the
young man who held up Charles La
cey and James Bye in the store. of the
former, charged with Grand larceny
by Prosecuting Attorney John Nisbet
on petition to change the former
crime of robbery, pleaded guilty in
district court Friday morning before
Judge Edgar E. Steele. Whereupon
the court in accordance with the law
sentenced the prisoner to an indeter-
inmate term of from one to fourteen
years in the Boise penitentiary de-
pendant on the defendants good be-
havior at that institution. Warden
Cuddy of he penitentiary was wired
by Sheriff John Woody of the SEN
tence and will send an officer here to
remove Shaibel to Boise.
Shaibel had been lone prisoner in
the county Jail since his capture over
week ago by the sheriff and his
deputies while on the road on foot to
Deary. He had complained of lone
liness and appeared to feel his posi-
ton. 1t was evident to his custodians
that the plea he had made to the court
that he was a deserter from the u. s.
navy was a bluff calculated to induce
the judge to deal liently with him.
The naval authorities at Bremerton
were notified but the records failed to
show that the prisoner was deserter
as claimed. The prosecuting attorney
and the sheriff thereupon called the
man up for sentence On account of
his youth the sentence was made so
that the prisoner could by good be-
havior obtain a reduction of the
terms of the Imprisonment.
During his incarceration at the
county Jail Shaibel showed dispo-
sition to comply with all rules and
He said he was from
Arkansas but failed to give the partic-
ular city or village he belonged to. An
officer from Boise is expected here by
Saturday.

James Williamson, nephew of Nat
Williamson of this city, is to be man
ager of the Interstate Trading COM
pany of Palouse. The business has
been purchased from j. A. Miller OF
that city, a general merchandise
business. The nephew is an execu-
tive who worked with his uncle for
some time. He is an ex-soldier, and
served during the world war. The
Palouse Republic in announcing the
deal says:
IN Williamson needs no introduc-
ton to the people of Palouse, having
at one time been in the mercantile
business here. He is now devoting his
time to the rearing of fine stock and
has large agricultural holdings
around Palouse and his name is fa-
miliar to every fancy stockman in the
Inland Empire.
After | get my nephew started

the management of the stJic,' said
Mr.. Williamson. I shall come in and
make my purchases the same as any
other customer, and If Jimmie asks
me too much for shirt I shall pur-
chase it elsewhere. The store will be
run on strictly cash basis. We fig
ure that we have merchandise to sell
and the bank has money to sell. 1t Is
not our purpose to sell money, but
merchandise. The terms will be cash
to the president of the bank the same
as the poorest customer. By follow
ing this policy we shall be able to sell
goods more cheaply and we will rem
der a service to the community by

B|TUM|NOUS COAL MOVES
BUT WARNS MOSCOW PEOPLE

In accordance with the request made
some time ago predicting an increase
in the cost of coal; the necessity of
moving the black diamonds at an early
date; the work of preparing for the
grain shipments so as not to inter-
fere with coal consumption, and the
economy that would be of benefit both
to the roalroad and the consumers,
Agent D. House Of the O. w. R. and
N. reported Friday morning that coal
had been moving rapidly of late to
Moscow and the county sections cover
ed by the lines.
That reports from the east showed
there were thousands of coal miners
out of work in the bituminous and
anthracite coal regions and that move
ments of coal were slow. In the Sc
attic neighborhoods things had been
unsettled over the wage scales, and
consequently production at the mines
had also been retarded. The situation
was serious for the winter unless
change occurred, according to the
travelling freight men of the 0. w. r.
and N. who visited Moscow two weeks
ago.
Get coal in early and fill your
bins. is the advice given the Moscow
public by Agent House, Friday.

That a number of improvements to
the city had been completed; that
sidewalks ha dbeen laid in most of the
sections listed by council; that curb
ing was an improvement to the large
frontage of sidewalks on West Sixth
street; that deal had been done to-
wards repairing pavements, and that
work was proceeding on the electric
light system and the septic tank were
reviews elected from an inquiry Of
MayorMelgard Friday morning.
His honor said there had been de-
lays that were unavoidable in relation
to the septic tank. Material had not
materialized. The work was being
done SO far as circumstances would
allow. Asked what relation the bank
ers had to the notices sent them by
the state board on the grain ware
houses were regarded by the state as
public utilities. The storage of grain
so that Idaho farmers might reap
the benefit of the coming higher
prices had been suggested.
The report of the City treasurer for
the past three months showed that
on improvements were
coming in, and that what was owing
showed also that the balances were on
the right side.

NORTH BUNKER HILL
HAS DOUBLE SHIFT MINERS

Conditions at the North Bunker Hill
on the east side of Milo Creek near
the old town of Wardner, says the
Wallace Press-Times are reported to
be very pleasing at the present time,
with prospects of cutting an ore body
within the next so feet. The crosscut
from the bottom of the 500-foot in
cline shaft has been extended almost
500 feet and is now approaching the
zone vertically under Haystack peak.
1t shows a quartzite formation similar
in all respects to that found in the
other big mines of that locality. The
past so feet has shown strong min
eralization, with occasional small
streaks of galena, tale, iron and oxi-
died matter. This is believed to be

additional depth of about 500 feet, it
is said, and more than 1000 feet be-
