Empress patrons who were unable to see the wonderful photoplay or "Over the Hill' which was shown at the Empress Theater short tune ago will enjoy the privilege of see ing it tonight when it is booked for it's final showing.
 The story of lover the Hill' was adapted from Carleton's poems oy Paul H. Sloane, who wrote screen story that has defied criticism i'll this form of entertainment. The story has to do with the adverslt1es of a typical American family the mother of which is called upon to bear the brunt of all the shortcom- inps of her little flock. The principal obarac acters. aside from the mother, are a lazy father and six lively Kids one of whom is destined to figure as the "black sheep" As the story unfolds, the youngsters are seen growing to manhood and womanhood' and eventually leaving the home stead to set out into the world for themselves
 The story is worked up to one Of the most beautiful climaxes ever de- vised and one that is said to stir the emotions of men and women as they never before have been stirred by a stage presentation. There is also abundant comdy in the picture, and the production can well be said to meet the entertainment needs of every member of any family, young and old.

Automobile truck trailers are much more extensively used than at home. It's a rare motor truck that hasn't one trailer attached, while many have two in tow. Unlike Ameri- can motor trucks, these German trucks run along very quietly and smoothly, without any chatter or roar
 The German "flivver" delivery ve- hicle is sort of tricycle. arrange ment, with the motor-a single cyl finder affair-perched on the third wheel. The chauffeur steers with a tiller-like handle that extends back to his seat. The American "Henry" is not to be seen
 Motoring is an expensive luxury for Germans. To ride a mile in a taxi costs 1,5O0 marks--a pitiful sum with the dollar worth 10000 marks-but a tremendous sum in a country where a skilled workman earns less than 2,000 marks day and high Government officials suf- fer from malnutrition. An automo- bile costs anywhere from 5,0O0,OOO

An important part in the Berlin transportation system is played by the little Russian horses that the German armies captured from the Cossacks by tens of thousands in the battles of Tannenberg and the Mazurian Lakes in 1914. These little horses, the size of Western COW ponies, are about the only horses seen in Berlin streets. Most of the man-sized German horses were killed during the war; lot of the rest were delivered to the Repar- ation Commission and as the Allies would have nothing to do with these undersized Russian animals, the Ger mans put them to work hauling mer- chandise and cabs.
 Fodder is expensive, so most horses present half-starved ap- pearance. How they manage the loads they do pull is a mystery.
 A few good-sized horses are still to be seen on the streets-most of them old and decrepit. About the only decent looking ones are those on the brewery wagons.
 Speaking of animals, the number of blooded German police dogs is, to an American, incredibly large. One such dog in the United States would cause a crowd to gather. There are so many here that only the newly-arrived Americans pay any at- tention to them

TO TAP RICH
 ORE BODIES IN TWO STATES

l DILLON, Mont, Jan. 19. - One of
 the most colossal undertakings in the annals of mining and for which plans have been perfected and necessary
 flrdt ratsad, will be the development
 of the Montana Oreway Mining Com i nany's properties by the driving of a
 tunnel from the Idaho side through the i Continental divide of the Rocky Noun tains to the ore deposits in Nontana
 for the purpose of connecting those
 properties with @ railroad at Baker. ] Idaho
 i The Montana Oreway Company's
 holdings lie in Western Baaverhead 1 County, Montana, remote from rail
 way facilities,
 This tremendous constructional seHoma has lon$ bce1 under consid- oration by officials and directors of. the Montana Oreway, but the war and consequent cessation of work on all large speculative enterprises caused them temporarily to abandon the plan. Now. however, they expect soon to be- gin work on this remarkable feat of engineering.
 The great tunnel will be started at the head of Wimpy Creek, in Le!nhi County, Idaho. and bo driven straight through the range and tap tha rich ore bodies on the Montana side. Incl dfstance from the mouth of the tun- n-D to the railway station at Baker is only 10 miles, all down grade.
 A highway suitable for automobile travel will be constructed from Baker 10 point on Wimpy Creek, three miles from the tunnel entrance, from whence a heavy cable tramway will be installed to cover the remaining dis tance to the mine portal. This steel cable supported upon huge posts set upon concrete bases, will be equipped with cars or buckets for carrying ore down to the highway and for convey 
 ing supplies to the mine. One of the interesting features of this tramWay will be the installation of comfort able passenger car with a capacity Of 12 persons. The cable will be electrl- callv driven, and the plans call for electric lights along the way and sim liar illumination for the passenger car.
 Aside from the vast quantities of bigh-grade ore that will be marketed by means of this project, it is also proposed to tap the great supply or forest products, such as railroad ties and heavy timber, that have been nlanted by nature on the Montana side of the great range and only await the enterprise of man to be put to com mercial use.
 Samuel J. Scott, formerly a mem Der of the Chicago Board of Trade and who has been connected with the Montana Oreway Company since l9o9' is the moving spirit behind this start ling project.

plain attire and journeyed some
twenty minutes out of New York
City to the suburban town OF
Larchmont, on Long Island Sound.
There, within reach of the roar
and tang Of the waves, she rented
a pretty little cottage. She told
none Of her friends that she was

she gave her name as something
else besides Dorothy Dalton. She
laughed away any remarks as to
her resemblance to the well known

Stars of Future

RECOVERING and plotting

To do SO requires experience and

Judgment. Broadway producers
who are active in the theater and
not concerned too particularly
with the mercenary returns are
doing this dangerous but fascir-
ating thing.
Among these few but energetic
managers are two young and far
sighted chaps who believe that
among the great mass of "un-
knowns" in the theater world
there are many who, If properly
directed and managed, will be-
come luminaries. artistic and fin

In the memorable Tess Of

sents the worlds theater-goers

a veritable gift to present-day

When Miss Pickford first es.

in her own right, but no one could
possibly foresee the heights to
which she would rise as the result
of single, dramatic effort.
There were two outstanding
reasons which actuated Miss Pick

the persistent demand of tens of
