 came out of the barroom and saw the
 two men leaving, so he followed them
 and hollered to them to stop, as he
 wished to speak to them.
 He said three shots were fired at
 him and three at Wagner. Later he
 said he did-no know how many were
 fired but there were five or six. He
 said the next thing he heard was Wag

 did not stop but went on after his

 He said the man that hit him was facing him and he was not more than three feet away but he could not identify Barry as the man. When
 asked why he left the hall he stated he went out to see the man and if he had apologized for calling his wife a bum, everything would have been would have to fight and he took Wag- ner with him so that everything would be equal-''two to two,' as he ex- pressed it.
 Asked if anybody had attempted
 to stop him on his way out he said
 that Wagner, Joe Farfel. Joe Delaney
 and Tony Murilio had attempted to stop him. Asked how he knew the shots were intended for him he stat ed that the flames from the pistol
 were coming right at him but that wagner had told hlm they were 1Ir1n g
 blanks so he did not stop but went after them. Asked if he recognized Barry as being either inside or out side the hall. by Judge Boardman, he stated that he recognized him as the man he saw at the cloakrOom. He said he went to both and asked which one insulted his wife. The answer received to this question was not announced, as at this point Judge Boardman declared a recess. Gregory was again put on the stand after the recess and from this time were frequent interruptions tby AtJor- mony varied to some extent with that given before the coroner and also to a statement given to Detective Wash burn.
 The other witnesses in the case were not called and Prosecutor Heating arose and stated that inasnuch as both Barry and Porter shot withou provocation, and that there was a
 literal rain of bullets he believed it impossible to determine whether Bar ry or Porter had fired the shots that actually killed Wagner. and that on the mos favorable interpretation of the law this man Is guilty. Attorney Mara in rebuttal, stated | that all he wanted was the court | to settle the question as to whether | the court thinks Barry is one of the

Tie picturization of this series was the idea of a young southern girl, Miss Vera Rover, who has herself ap- peared on the screen and whose in doulinatable energies resulted in the formation of the advisory board. The series reaches the screen through w. W. Hodkinson, a pioneer in tic movement. The actual productions are being handled by Triart Produc- lions, and are being taken under the direction of Herbert Blache and Le- jaren Hitler, the latter 8 we'll known figure in the art circles of New York.
 'tNo one who has the best interest of art truly at heart can help but feel . deep interest in this innova- tion in motion pictures" says MT. Tiffany, one of the greatest art con- neisseurs of America, after he had witnessed two-reel film, the exteri- DTS of which had been taken on his own Long Island estate. "I firmly believe 1t will have an epoch-making effect on the entire moving picture industry, for it is the first serious eff fort to link the picture in motion with the greatest canvasses of all times.
 Value is Taca1cu1able
 
 l"From an educational standpoint, the value of these pictures is incal- cu1able. They constitute vizualiza- ton of the very wellsprings of in spiration and will bring great paint ings nearer the homes of the masses than any other force ever contem- plated"
 sz The title part in 'SThe Beggar Maid" is played by Mary Astor, a sixteen-year-ofd actress. Before this picture was filmed, a careful scen- ario was prepared, constructed upon the story of King Cophetua and the legend on which Tennyson based his poem. Burne-Jones is shown fin Q reverie over a volume of verse, and when his nefghbor, young English Earl, bursts into praise of the match less beauty of the daughter of one of his tenants, the idea of the painting unfolds in the painters imagination.
