PEOPLE WANT
 COUNTRY DRY
So Asserts Founder Of Anti-Saloon League, Who Cites Election Re-
 suits.

Prohibition is here to stay. accord ing to pr. Howard Ii. Russell, founder of the Anti-Saloon League, who thus expressed himself in this city yesterday. In proof thereof, he pointed to the enormous pIuralities in favor of prohibition given in the re- cent election in Ohio and California, states which had always been re- garded as wet strongh olds.
 Dr. Russell. who has been . here with other speakers of the American Bond Association for several days, said, Before prohibition. go per cent. of the cases of drunkenness in this country were caused by beer and wine, and the efforts of the Anti Saloon League in putting the present prohibition law iI force were largely concentrated on ab0lishing these beverages as well as those of higher alcoholic content. If Congress were to pass a law permitting sale of these beverages it would a1ullify all the good effects of prohibition and the country would revert back to the con ditions which held forth before the enactment of the law
 While he believed a dry American Merchant Marine might suffer slightly in competitor with European ships with liquor aboard, Dr. Russell said. after people had become acquainted with the good effects of prohibition American ships would profit by the fact they d:d not carry liquor.

Majestic Review
s.Drearns for Sale"

Headstrong, se1f-willed and self centered girls who tr-de with men affections and who care more for the gaudy, showy things of life than for the big deep main interest; and Dig, strong men who think they under stand women but who in reality know nothing about the opposite sex, should pay little visit to the Majestic thea ire this week and see themselves as others see them in the play Dreams for Sale.''
 In no other play this season nave the versatile Majestic stock players had a chance 10 so forcibly show their acting powers. The entire cast is al :ts best and 1t would be difficult to pick out the work of one player as outstanding.
 As in most good productions there is a plot and an underplot and in both there are struggles. In the main plot it is the struggle of the wills Of a man and 8. girl to dominate each other and to find each other, while the second and far less romantic struggle is that of two rival clans to start a pulp mill in the Maine woods
 The story begins with Ann Bald win the tempermental daughter of a tenpernental father. who at the time Of the opening of the play has just been expelled from college Tor the third time. On this occasion, It seems, she was dismissed because OF a spectacular automobile trip with the nephew of man who had been a bitter enemy of her fathers for 2O years When she arrives home she finds waiting for her an old sweet heart with whom she was violently in love two years before. That is perore she knew the joy of dancing all night, Of being surrounded with all kinds Of Iuxuries. Of having dozen or 16 young men waiting to grat1Iy her every wish.
 The lover whose name is Jim Gris- wold, does not love but hates the new Anna Baldwin, who has just come nome and nothing which she can do or say will convince him that she ia the girl with whom he was in love. His constant display of animosity raaddens Anna SC much that she final ly-- but then if the climax is told very interesting and impressive pres entation which hundreds of Bridge port people are planning to see
 Miss Nila Mac, the leading lady, as every look, in every word. in every action in the first three acts she Is the spoiled, headstrong, unmanageable daughter of a father who does not act, how different. She becomes .a dociIe. sweet woman1y woman, devoid of all the traits which she openly ex- pressed in the first part, and her act ing changes the whole atmosphere or the play Arthur Chatterdon, the leading man, is also very good this week He loses his own individual ity which was seen in other produc- tions this season. and becomes a part of the fiction world. The playing of MT. Chatterdon. also of Edmund Ab- ley, as Rufus Baldwin, Anne's father and w H. Gerald, as Peter Nash, the enemy, is all very strong and f1n- rresslve and the finest work yet ore sented by the Poli players. The sets for the four acts are worthy of specia' rOte.

Silent" Letters
 Cost Much Money

London. Dec. 13.-French is known to be a language replete with letters silent so far as pronounciat:on is con cerned; English also has a goodly number of examples Of lettering re- garded in some quarters as wasteful. Strike out every letter and symbol not essential in each language, and the total of the yearly printing bifls in both countries could be reduced by S4O,000,000.
 This computation has been made bv French and nglish statistician ns with time on their hands and an in terest in the bizarre.
 In the periodicals published in France it was found that 10S, ,000,- 900 900 letters are used yearly whereof 13 per cent are useless Casting these aside would reduce French printing costs by $2, ,500, ,0o0

Nashville, in response to the call from
six general presidents of the mechanical
shop crafts, the crafts affected being the

blacksmlths, sheet metal workers, and
electricians.
Preparations were made carly in the

by the Federated shop craft by appoint
ing committee to conduct the strike
and one point brought out at the meeting
was that no member would commit any
act of violence, as this federation will
not be responsible for any unlawful act
committed by any member. -
All Along Line.
Before the walk out, members were In
structed to meet at their hall at three
on Saturday afternoon to complete ar
rangements to carry out the strike. A

bers failed to answer. A committee re-
ported that practically all colored help

Rich SENATORS
AGAINST FORD,
CHARGES NORRIS
Gives Senate Raking Over the
Goals for Delay on Dam.
HOUSE AMENDMENT MEANS
ANOTHER YEARS DELAY
Thousand Men Should Be Put to
Work at Muscle Shoals.

WASHINGTON, Juy 1.-The senate
was taken to task today by Senator Nor
ris. Republican, Nebraska, for concurring
in the house amendment to the army bill
delaying until October /, next, beginning
of new work on the Wilson Dam at
Muscle Shoals.
In brief speech, he reminded the sem
ate that its original proposal would have
permitted 1000 or more men to have be-
gun work today, and declared it's confir-
nation of the house action meant an
other year of delay of work on the pro-
ject and prevention OF idle laborers in
south from obtaining employment.
Saved TWO Million.
The senate's original proposal. Senator
Norris asserted, also would have saved "a
couple of more million dollars for the tax
payers" as well as preventing the great
fertilizer trust" from ''hammering down
for another year the Alabama farmers
and continuing during that time the
domination over the farmers of Ala
bama.'
All MilllonaIres.
The senator attacked the senate's ac-
tion in yielding to the house to great
''propa ganda" that carried 1t off It's
feet" and said 1t yielded because Of a
combination of men who were afraid
Henrs Ford.s offer safght he lest ord be-.
oauseaof ''rnen who did not want any
thing done The senate roll call. he said
showed the farmer group was assisted
by every millionaire in the senate"
This is the first of July" Senator
Norris continued. "It is the day when,
had 1t not been for the postponement Of
the preparation which was made by the
senate for the continuation of the work
at Muscle Shoals, thousand more men
who are now idle would have been put
to work down In Alabama"
