A World Wonder Not Known to One in a Thousand.

The Burton Holmes Trave- logue Monday night dealt with a great world wonder. Boro Bodor, that not one in a thous- and in America knew existed before the Burton Holmes travelogue was presented. It is a geat monument to Buddha, situated in the island of Java and built thousands of years ago. The base measures five hundred feet square and the height is from 1SO to 200 feet. It is a larger structure than the noted Egyptian pyramids, and is in a state of almost perfect preservation. Within are hun dreds of Buddha statues. The sides of the structure are ter raced and about the terraces are three miles of sculpCured figures giving the history of the Buddhas and other important events of that distant age. One who wishes to know something of the history of this world of ours, will find much in these travelogues that cannot be ob- tained from history. or modern periodicals.

"THE CONOUERING

It is with much satisfact tion that Manager Reese of THE SULTANA is able to present THE CONQUERING POW FER" next Thursday, Mar. 9th. while it is so new and so soon | after the showing of THE FOUR HORSEMEN".
 Directed by that genius, Rex Ingram, with Rudolph Valen- tino, Alice Terry and practical ly the entire cast of THE FOUR HORSEMEN".
 From the wonderful novel, "Eugenie Grandet' written by the noted French writer, Hon ore de Balzac, with the scenes laid in France it is a wonderful portrayal of which is The Con- quering Power Love or wealth.
 With none of the depressing effects of the horrors of war as depicted in Ingrams other pro- duction it is nevertheless full of intensely dramatic situations.
 Rudolph Valentino, whose Latin temperament and grace full fascination fitted him pre- eminently for the role of Julio in "THE FOUR HORSEMEN'' is cast as the Parisian dandy, Charles. And Alice Terry, the exquisitely beautiful Margue- rite of 1.-THE FOUR HORSE MEN has scored a sensational triumph through her portrayal of Eugenie.
 In many respects 1.-THE CON- QUERING POWER" was a test of Ingram's real ability as di- rector. When THE FOUR HORSEMEN", his first great effort scored it's sensational wonder was expressed if he could ever equal that work. His answer is found in THE CONQUERING POW FER" for in the latter film he has actually surpassed 1.-THE FOUR HORSEMEiN" is the verdict of all the critics.

DR. MELICK'S FATHER LAID AT REST SUNDAY

Dr. w WeSley MeI1ck, 1atner OI Dr. P. A. Melick, of Williams, died at his home in Horton, Mo-, last week Thursday and was buried on Sunday. He survived his wife by just thirty days and had reached the ripe old age of 90. His wife had reached the age of S1 when her call came just a month before.
 Dr. P. A. Melick was notified on Thursday of last week, that his father was not expected to live. He left for Missouri the following day and did not learn of his fathers death until he reached Horton. He reached Horton just in time for the funeral service.
 pr. Wesley Melick graduat- ed from the school of medicine in Pennsylvania in the year 1857. During the Civil War he served as surgeon with the 9th Kansas cavalry. After the war he went with his wife to Horton, Mo-, where they made their home on 32O acre farm, while the doctor contin- ued his practice with his office at the farm. There they built up farm of a thousand acres which they kept together until a short time ago when pr. Melick sold a part of it reducing the farm to about 700 acres. It was at this farm that MT. and Mrs. Melick spent nearly sixty years of their lives during which they reared a family of four daughters and two sons.. Dr. P. A. Melick and Victor MeIick were the two sons, both of whom became residents of Williams. Dr. Wesley Melick continued in the prcatice of medicine until the age of 60 when his son graduated from medical college and took his place. Dr. P. A. Melick con- tinued his fathers practice un- til his health failed. He then came to Williams and has been a resident here since. Victor Melick was a prominent and highly respected citizen of Will Hams until his death a little over two years ago at the hand of Simplicio Torrez who later hung for the crime.
 Of the four daughters, three | were married. One. Mrs. | Whitfield, mother of Charley Whitfield of Williams, is de- ceased. The other two mar ried daughters are: Mrs. Laila 1 Armstrong, of Springfield, Mo-, and Mrs. Fife Knowles of Will mar, Okla. The fourth daugh- ter remained at hom and is now administratrix of the es- tate.
 Dr. Wesley Melick had ex- ceeded the three score and ten years allotted to man, by twen- ty years. He came to his end in the old home with loved ones about him with the satisfaction of having lived his life to the full, a life crowned with suc- cess.
