Fashion Revue in Convention Hall.

over situation which has not had
its equal in all the years of
publicity, Grant Allen, press repre-
sentative, reluctantly confessed to-
day.
There has never been a time
when We couldn't make something
seem bigger than it really was"
said Mr.. Allen. but after talking
over the plans for the show with
Harry F. Cary, Illustrious Poten.
tate Of Almas Temple, l find that
my best superlatives fail me-"
With these words, Mr.. Allen
buried his head in his hands and
moaned aloud, to the evident dis
tress OF the copy readers, that he
would be ruined-that he wouldn't
be able to hold up his head in
public again.
Some of the Features.
i Three reporters forced him into
a sitting position and wrested from
him the following facts:
Eleven committees are at work
on the details of the show. The
decoration committee has devised
an appropriate Oriental setting for
the hall. The big auditorium will
be transformed into a good Mos.
LENS dream Of Paradise, with long
avenues of gowns and other fash
ion exhibits, thousands Of precious
gems and a full complement of
beautiful women.
The costume committee has ar
ranged a beauty contest for the
numerous models, the winner to re.
! cetve substantial prize and the
privilege of wearing $15000O worth
| Of diamonds to be used in the lev
elry display.
The fashion drama to be presented
by Lansburgh & Brother will eX-
hibit frocks, suits and sporting an.
parel for day wear, tea gowns and

Queer and trainer of beauty for the
stage.
Insurance policies totaling $4,000
have been taken out by Almas lem
pie for the clothing, jewelry ard

A corps of detectives is being en-.
ployed for thus purpose.

position and fashion revenue will
provide real entertainment" said
Potentate Cary today, clean and

and games of chance which so
often mar these enterprises"

so clean that it can cause confusion
to none, and yet so infectious that it
is irresistible; these are some of the
things which are done by Hines in his
latest picture, Conductor 1892" a
Warner Brothers classic of the screen
at the Weir theater, Sunday.
Johnny himself wrote the story of
Conductor 1892" 1t is about a young
son of Erin with nothing but a doll
mascot and a lot of good fun and
gaucherie to commend him to the god
of fortune. How he succeeds through
a series of failures makes up the
story of this delightful picture.
For his supporting cast, Hines has
the following: Doris May, Dan Mason,
Ruth Renick, Robert Cain, Fred Es-
melton, Byron Sage, Michael Dark,
Dorothy Burns and Cameo, the Won
der odg.
The picture was co-directed by
Charles Hines and Frank Griffen.

Attorney General Barrett of Mis-

branch banking has always proved
monopolistic in its tendency.
wherever permitted, a few years
sees the passing of the small bank and

This bill is headed by Maxon Broth
ers & Wood, master minds in the art
of hand jumping and equilibristic
marvels. Their act practically in
cludes every known feat ever offered
with the addition of several new ones.
The rapidity with which they perform
these feats is marvellous. They add
just enough by-play to give them an
opportunity to display some excellent
comedy that goes over with a roar of
laughter. :
Art Fletcher, a laxative comedian
of the nut type sings several songs
along with fast, snappy, and clean

voice and leaves his audience with a
happy smile on their faces.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Feb. 7.-At a
meeting of the co-operators it was
planned to launch campaign of edu-
catien that trade unionists and other
forward looking people in this state
may understand coop. principles.
Emphasis will be placed on the
Rochdale system of cooperation, which
gives every member of coop. So
ciety an equal voice, regardless of
the number of shares held. Under
the Rochdale system, dividends are
based on the amount of purchases
made.
The cooperators declare such a

alleged coop. movements that are
controlled by few individuals.
This campaign is under the direc-
ton of the educational department of

WASHINGTON, Feb. z. = If the

The article shows how American

of immigration which has amounted
to 100000 persons the last Is
years. More than 65.5 per cent of
these immigrants have come from
eastern and southern Europe.
No such movement of peoples has
taken place in the history of mankind

While the thermometer in New
York was breaking heat records of
thirty years standing, Gloria Swan
son set a record for sustained emo
tioalism in a scene for "ZaZa" during
the filming of that superb produc-
ton at the Paramount Long Island
studio. Miss Swanson remained in
tears costantly during five hours for
one of the most dramatic scenes in
the picture. So far as is known she
established a record for sustained
emotion that has never been equal
led by any screen star.
| Miss Swanson's remarkable work
was done in Zaa's love nest when
cara learns that her sweetheart, Du-
fresno, has a wife and that he is
leaving France for America. She
runs the gamut of emotions in the
scene, passing rapidly from hate to
frenzy, mockery to jealousy and then
to bitter contrition.
Tears roll from Miss Swanson's
eyes throughout the sequence. When
the electricians were changing the
lights for new Photographic angles of
the action, she sat in a corner and
cried softly for herself, keeping in
character from the time Director
] Dwan started the scene until he fin
ished it four hours later, without a
break except for necessary technical
delays.
"She is the most remarkable act
ress ever saw on stage or SCREEN"
declared Mr.. Dwan. "Her work in
this picture has been amazing. She

be no limit to the depths of her emo
ton" "Zaza" come to the Weir the
