ance union, which will hold its tenth
convention at Philadelphia, Nov. 11-16,
has 100000 members of 40 national

headquarters here of the national or
ganization. The first president of the
International organization was Mar
garet Bright Lucas, sister of John
Bright, British prime minister. Her
successors were Frances E. Willard,
Lady Henry Somerset, and Rosalind,
Countess of Carlyle. Since the coun-
tess death, Miss Anna A. Gordon, vice
president, has been acting president.
Miss Willard is said to have con-
celved the idea of an international or
ganization for temperance as the re-
suit of a visit to Chinatown in San
Francisco. She founded the Worlds

About year later petition for

MURRAY


The announcement of the Murray
theatre that it is showing "The Isle
of Zorda," a film version of Jules
Verne's story, Matthias Sandorf," re-
minds one of what a marvellous mag
nation this French writer had.
What a gift, what a talent, what a
genius is imagination. In his mind,
Jules Verne could plumb the center
of the earth; he could travel to the
depths of the sea; to the heights Of
the moon; around the world!
He could imagine wonderful adven-
lures; deep mysteries; dark intrigues;
charming romances, as no other writ
er before or since him. And his pen
was as vivid as his imagination. The
imaginings of his own mind he gave
freely to the world.
And what a man is Matthias San
dorf, hero of 1.-THE Isle of Zorda. =
Great-hearted, noble-souled, splendid
he suffered every agony of the flesh
and the spirit through betrayal. But
he never gave up. At no time was the
fight too great for his strength and
courage. He rose again to the heights
through his own tremendous efforts,
and then he matched his wits against
the greedy plotting Of his enemies.
Matthias Sandorf's personality and
story is said to carry you away from
your daily atmosphere of monotony
and petty troubles and into a world OF
adventure that every red-blooded, cour
ageous person, in the bottom of Their
i hearts, longs for. That means it Is
| genuine entertainment.

said the coolies would not face the
leeches, SO we had to take the lower
track, which roughly follows the river.
AS we got near Gantok we had to climb
the long ascent. My companion had

When the Australian soldiers were

flung hundreds Of bottles overheard
with messages and many Of these
were cast up on the beaches. The
passengers on the Cunard liner Port

Africa in 80 days. tried a new way Of
communicating with their friends in
Great Britain. When 20 miles off Las
Palmas, they launched raft, upon
which was tin containing 40 letters
and As shlllings to cover the cost of
postage, together with a request In
Spanish and English that the finder
should post the letters by the first
available mail. A Flagstaff carrying u
Union Jack had been erected on the
raft and in the early morning the pas
sengers watched the departure Of their
