PARAMOUNT PICTURES
AT THE WEAVER

Motion picture patrons of Noun
tain Home are promised a gala sea-
son this year in an announcement
made yesterday by Manager Hen
drinks of the Weaver Theatre. Mr..
Hendricks declared that he had
booked for the Weaver Theatre the
first twelve Paramount Pictures to
be released this season by the Fam
Gus Players-Lasky Corporation.
Inclsded among these pictures are
two productions starring Gloria
Swanson, one starring Thomas Mel
CHAN, one starring Pola Negri, two
pictures made by James Cruze, pro-
Queer of ''The Covered Wagon" and
pictures produced by William de
Mile, George Melford and Allan
Dwan, the director of robin Hood"
In making his announcement,
Manager Hendricks states that the
release Of these pictures signalizes
a radical change of policy on the
part Of Famous Players, the produce
ers and distributors of Paramount
pictures. Heretofore the Company
has led all producers not only in
the quality of its pictures but also
in the number of feature productions
it had released each year. Last year
the company released eighty-two pic
lures, but this season there will be
only fifty-two Paramount pictures.
With the reduction In the number of
its productions, there will be no
diminution in the size of the pro-
ducing organizations, both in Cali
fornia and New York. The same
effort, time and money that hereto
fore were expended on eighty-two
productions are this year being con-
on fifty-two, with a con-
sequent Improvement in the quality
OF the pictures. The Paramount
pictures to be shown at the Weaver
Theatre, according to Mr.. Hendricks
are as follows:
Madge Kennedy in "The Purple
a James Cruze special,
Hollywood" with 22 stars and SIS
screen celebrities, George Melford
special "Salomy Jane" with Jacque-
line Logan, an Allan Dwan special
Lawful Larcency," Gloria Swanson
in "Bluebeards Eighth Wife," The
Silent Partner" with Leatrice Joy and
owen Moore, ITO the Last Man." a
Zane Grey special, with Lois Wilson
and Richard. Dix; Pola Negri in "The
Cheat" James Cruces production of
'Ruggles of Red Cap" THE Mar
riage Maker" a William de Mile
production, Gloria Swanson in VA
"a" an Allan Dwan production, and
Thomas Meighan in "Woman-P Proof

Long Beach, Cal.-For attacking
mad dog on crowded downtown
street here and choking IL TO death
with her bare hands, after it had
bitten several persons and was at
tempting to bite Others, Mrs. Grace
w. Newell has been awarded 1894 by
the city council for damages to her
clothing and for doctor bills. Mrs.
Newell asked the city to pay $12S in
doctor bills and S106 for clothing

but members of the city council held
the municipality was under moral
obligation to the woman, and over
ruled the objection.

CHAPTER XIV
The Man of the Island

From the side of the hill, which
was here steep and stony, spout
of gravel was dislodged, and fell
rafting and bounding through the
trees. My eyes turned instinctively
in that direction, and l saw a figure
leap with great rapidity behind the
trunk of a pine. What it was,
whether bear, or man, or monkey,
could in nowise tell. 1t seemed
dark and shaggy; more I knew not
But the terror of this new apparitiOn
brought me to a stand.
was now, it seemed cut off upon
both sides; behind me the murderers,
before me this lurking nondescript.
And Immediately l began to prefer
the dangers that 1 knew to those 1
knew not. Silver himself appeared
less terrible in contrast with this
creature of the woods, and 1 turned
on my heel, and, looking sharply be-
hind me over my shoulder, began
to retrace my steps in the direction
of the boats.
instantly the figure reappeared,
and, making a wide circuit, began
to head me off. | was tired, at any
rate, but had 1 been as fresh as when
1 rose, 1 could see it was in vain for
me to contend in speed with such an
adversary. From trunk to trunk
the creature fitted like a deer. run
ming man-like on two legs, but I'M
like any man that l had ever seen,
STOPPING almost double as he ran
Yet a man it was; l could no longer
be in doubt about that
l began to recall what I had heard
I Vrron n
of calling for help. But the mere
fact that he was a man, however
wild, had somewhat treasured me,
and my fear of Silver began to re-
viYe in proportion. I stood still,
therefore, and cast about for some
method of escape, and as l was so
thinking, the recollection of my
pistol flashed into my mind. As soon
as / remembered 1 was not defense
less, courage glowed again in my
heart, and I set my face resolutely
for this man of the island, and
walked briskly toward him.
He was concealed by this time,
behind another tree-trunk, but he
must have been watching me close
ly, for as soon as I began to move
in his direction he reappeared and

lesitated, drew back, came forward
again, and at last, to my wonder
and confusion, threw himself on his
knees and held out his clasped hands
In duplication.
At that / once more stopped
who are you?" / asked.
''Ben Gunn," he answered, and |
his voice sounded hoarse and awk-
ward, like a rusty lock I'm poor

GOVERNOR WALTON
MUST STAND TRIAL

Oklahoma City - Governor ]. c.
Walton lost Wednesday in his effort
to obtain federal Intervention TO
stop his impeachment trial and HIS
attorneys Wednesday night were pre-
pairing to go forward with the trial
Thursday before the state senate
court of impeachment.
Judge John H. Cotteral, in United
States district court at Lawton, de-
MED the executives application for a
restraining order against the parties
prosecuting the impeachment charges
and others alleged to have been in
strumental in developing the proceed
ings. He granted a rehearing, how-
ever, on APPLICATION of counsel for the

I / do not know what it rightly is
to faint, but / do know that for the
next little while the whole world
swan away from before me in a
whirling mist; Silver and the birds
and the tall Spy-glass hilltop going
round and round and topsy-turvy
before my eyes, and all manner of
bells ringing, and distant voices
shouting in my ear.
When l came again to myself the
monster had pulled himself togeth-
err, his crutch under his arm, his
hat upon his head Just before him
Tom lay motionless upon the sward;
but the murderer minded him not a
whit, cleansing his bloOd-stained
knife the while upon a whisp of
grass. Everything else was un-
changed, the sun still shining mer-
cilessly upon the steaming marsh
and the tall pinnacle of the noun
tain, and l could scarce persuade
myself that murder had actually been
done and a human life cruelty cut
short a moment since, before my
eyes.
But now John put his hand into
his pocket, brought out a whistle,
and blew upon it several mOdulated
blasts, that rang out far across the
heated air. 1 could not tell, of
course, the meaning of the signal,
but it instantly awOke my fears.
More men would be coming. l might
be discovered. They had already
slain two of the honest people; after
Tom and Alan, might 1 not come
next?
instantly I began to extricate my
self and crawl back again, with what
speed and silence l could manage,
to the more open portion of the
wood. AS l did so l could hear halls
coming and going between the old
buccaneer and his comrades, and this
sound of danger lent me wings. AS
soon as l was clear of the thicket, !
l ran as | never ran before, scarce
the direction of my flight, |
so long as it led me from the muir
derers, and as 1 ran, fear grew and |
grew upon me, until it turned into
a kind of frenzy.
Indeed, could anyone be more en-
tirely lost than 1? When the gun |
fired, how should l dare to go down !
to the boats among those fiends, still |
smoking from their crime? Would |
not the first of them who saw me
wiring my neck like a snipe's? Would |
not my absence itself be an evidence
to them of my alarm, and therefore
Of my fatal knowledge? 1t was all
over, l thought. Goodbye to the
good-by to the squire,
The doctor and the captain. There
was nothing left for me but death
by starvation, or death by the hands
Of the mutineers.
All this while, as I say, 1 was still
and, without taking any
notice, had drawn near to the foot
If the little hill with the two peaks,
and had got into a part of the island
where the wild oaks grew more
widely apart and seemed more like
forest trees in their bearing and
Mingled with these were
| few scattered pines, some fifty,
ome nearer seventy, feet high. The
lir too, smelled more freshly than
Town beside the marsh.
And here a fresh alarm brought
ne to a standstill with a humping
leart.

PART w
The Stockade
CHAPTER XVI
Narrative Continued by the Doctor
How the Ship Was Abandoned


It was about half-past one-three
bells in the sea phrase-that the
two boats went ashore from the His
PAMELA. The captain, the squire,
and l were talking matters over in
the cabin. Had there been a breath
of wind, we should have fallen on
the six mutineers who were left
aboard with us, slipped our cable,
and away to sea. But the wind was
wanting; and, to complete our help
lessness, down came Hunter with the
news that Jim Hawkins had slipped
into a boat and was gone ashore
with the rest.
II had never occurred to us to
doubt Jim Hawkins, but we were
alarmed for his safety. With the
men in the temper they were in, It
seemed an even chance if we should
see the lad again. We ran on deck.
The pitch was bubbling in the
seams; the nasty stencil of the place
turned me sick; If ever a man
smelled fever and dysentery, 1t was
in that abominable anchorage. The
six scoundrels were sitting grum-
bling under a sail in the forecastle;
ashore we could see the gigs made
fast, and a man sitting in each, hard
by where the river runs in. One of
them was whistling "Lillibullero."
Waiting was a strain, and it was
decided that Hunter and I should
go ashore with the jolly-boat, I'm
quest of information The gigs had
leaned to their right, but Hunter
and I pulled straight in, in the di-
rection of the stockade upon the
chart. The two who were left guard
ing their boats seemed in a hustle
at our appearance; "Lillibullero"
stopped off, and l could see the pair
what they ought to do.
Had they gone and told Silver, all
might have turned out differently;
but they had their orders, 1 suppose,
and decided to sit quietly where they
were and bark back again to "LiIli-
bullero."
There was a slight bend in the

that will assure the building of
