NEW YORK, December 29.-Another
enthusiastic wave of buying came into
the curb market today and swept
prices forward, in many instances to
the highest SO far established.
Today's upturn took in the radio
shares, number of public utilities
ana oils, one or two of the motors
and coppers and host of speciaIties.
The recent action of Dubilier Con-
denser directors, in splitting up the
stock was cause for belief that other
radio companies would do something
for stockholders in the near future,
and this probably was back of the
great demand. Freed Eisemasn was
actively at new high prices on the
move and the upward movement in
Hazeltine showed no signs of culmi-
mating. Thermiodyne Corporation,

NEW PICTURE THEATRE.
Dirigo Will Open in New Location
Next Monday.


y Ellsworth moving picture fans
next Monday will move into a new
home, when Robert P. Kings new
Drigo theatre on State street will
be opened This theatre, built to re-
place the one at the Main street
bridge which was destroyed in the
freshet last spring, is larger, better,
more comfortable, and more attrac-
tive than the old. Few towns the
size of Ellsworth can boast of it's
equal; none excels it in equipment.
- In equipment it is thoroughly up
to-date in every way, with the latest
in projecting machines and gold
fibre screen to give clearness and
definition to the pictures. The two
machines are housed in a fire-proof
booth.
The auditorium is 50x75 feet in
size, with seats for 500 people. The
seats are of the regular theatre pat
tern, with leather bottoms. They are
arranged in three aisles. The audi
torium is most attractive with it's
decorations of gold and ivory. The
lights are of handsome design, for
semi-direct lighting, and arranged to
be dimmed, not darkened during
pictures The floor, of course, slopes
toward the, stage, giving an unob-
structed view from every seat in the
house.
The lobby, opening on State street,
gives direct access to the auditorium.
The ticket office is at the right of en-
trance. A sloping floor leads upward
to the rear of the auditorium, so that
there are no steps after entering the
lobby There are three emergency
exits besides the main entrance.
The heating and ventilating sys-
tenn is excellent. A large furnace,
with motor-driven fans, gives ample
heat and fresh air, while ventilating
fans for summer insure as much cool
ness as can be obtained anywhere.
Y The opening picture for Monday
and Tuesday will be the famous
production, Quincy Adams Saw
yer" 1t is a picture worthy to be
the opening feature for this new
theatre, and should insure big
crowds.
First of all, there is the story it.
self which makes its appeal. The
hOmely narrative OF New England
rural folks has still the same sweet
charm, the same delightful and
quaint flavor which it had as a move
and later as a play Its delightful,
people and their affairs hold the in
terest throughout.
The story is concerned with the
adventures of a young Boston law
yer, Quincy, when he comes to Ma
sons Corner to clear up legal tan
gle. He wins the affection of the
towns women-folk, but he incurs the
enmity of the local car, Obadiah
Strout The conflict between Quin-
cy and Strout forms the main motive
of the story, with many unusual
and comic situations.
As a special comedy feature, on
the same bill will be Charles Chap
lin, the king of screen comedians,

Buried City Sought
By Explorers Near
Famed Lehman Caves

ELY, New, Sept. 13.-Scientists
of the University of Nevada, in an
exploration party headed by Gov
crnOr j. c. Scrugham. recently have
read again the pages of the past in
cavcrns I, II the famed Lehman
caves and found them rich in
archaeological lore.
Figuring found on the rock wall OF
a cavern, said to be undenlably
Aztec, leads DR.. b. f. Schappelle,
81 ~" .C.g% OF the university, to
believe the discovery one Of the
most important in recent years.
The finding of pottery in the caves
also moves the pottery line about
800 miles further north than any
ever before found.
DIR. Schappelle and DIR. Peter
Frandsen, biologist, have employed
six men to assist in the work of
eXcavating. The party found it diff
fiCult in places to discern the
hieroglyph&cs, as cloudbursts had
washed much debris into the cav,
ems. Hieroglyphics resembling both
Aztec and Egyptian work have been
found and members of the party
are optimistic in predicting that a
Veritable underground city will be
discovered.
A strong flow of water was dis
covered 90 feet below the level Of
Baker Creek, and live angleworms
were found at a depth of 100 feet.
A burial cave was found with an
opening four by six feet at the sur
face, leading to d large underground
room, containing five human skele-
tons, the bones badly disintegrated
due to extreme age.

Gilreath, Slayer Of
Kinsman, Acquitted

SUMMERVILLE, Ca. Sept. 10
After delberating about thirty min
utes, the jury in the case of Neise
Gllreath, charged with killing his
brother-in law, John S. Jones, on
Lockout mountain about two weeks
ago, late Friday afternoon returnc
a verdict of not guilty. Gilreath
claimed self-defense, charging that
Jones was approaching him with N
open knife when he lred the shot
which resulted in Jones' death at a
Rene hospital about two days latac.
The trouble is said to have been
caused by a dispute about the re-
porting of q still to the officers. Jones
had served about eight years of u
life sentence for killing his oTTn -
Their. Ayers Jones. in 1898. He was
rar60nnA nv tho Governor.
