 LOSES IN FIRE About Si00,000 Damage to Mid.
 dletOWn Concern

Middletown, Feb. 1.--Fire of un- known origin last night caused dam- age of approximately stoo, 900 to the web drying department of the Russell Manufacturing company of South Farms.
 The blaze started in a wooden tower In the center of the one story cement building used for drying belts and brake Things, quickly consuming the wooden structure and spreading to either side. Several hundred rolls of brake lining and quantity of shell lac and chemicals were destroyed. A number of barrels of chemicals were carried from the building by firemen to prevent an explosion and spread of the flames.
 The fire was discovered by two workmen in the building and the fac- tory fire department was called. The blaze was beyond their control and city alarm was sent in. Because of the low water pressure it was impos- sible to prevent heavy damage and it was three hours before the flames were under control.
 The building which is 500 feet long, was saved on both ends but the re- maining portion was declared a total loss by officials of the company. The loss in entirely covered by insurance, it was stated.

Again presenting fine bill, Hoyt's
 Revue opened in their new show yes- terday to big houses who were de- lightd with the comedy, songs and dances. and screamed with laughter atthe funny antics of Lew Williams and Billy Hall. the comedians. The bill is bright and witty throughout and some excellent song numbers are displayed with the principals working very good toegther. One of the funni- est and quaintest novelties with this show is the silhouette scene which is very we'll done and rather mystifying at times. Tonight amateur night, will be given for local amateurs and quite a few local thespians are scheduled to appear. The Hoyt show will ap- pear tonight and three times on Sat- urday, there being continuous per- formances Saturday.

UNEMPLOYED FEWER,

Labor Troubles and Franc Make
 British Trade Irregular

London, Feb. 1.--Although unem- ployment in Great Britain decreased during January until the number of jobless stands as 1,227,o00 there is a general uncertainty in British trade owing to labor troubles, political changes and the depreciation of the French franc, says the monthly sum- mary of business conditions publish- cd by the American chamber of com merce in London.
 The slump in the franc, the survey asserts. has stimulated keen competi- ton among the continental producers of iron and steel, while some fur naces have been damped down through the recent rail strike and be- cause of failing of of new orders

BIRDS ENTERTAIN AT LYCEUM

BIRDS ENTERTAIN AT LYCEUM
 One of the most beautiful of all acts showing in vaudeville is Mons Birds, the headliner at the Lyceum. These little feathered actors and &C., tresses are really remarkable in their work and the 'feathered revue" they present is one of the most novel pieces of entertainment obtainable. On the same bill are three other good acts. Harry Latoy is a juggler de luxe who losses everything about with abandon, but manages to catch them again. Pep, with a dash of comedy, is added by Arthur and Lydia Davis in their dialogue sketch, and the Denton Brothers are whirling deverishes of the ladders. Theirs Is a semi-acro- batic act in which they perform on revolving ladders. Rounding out the program is Charles (Buck) Jones in "Cupid's Fireman" a thrilling city story depicting the bravery and dar- ing of young member of the fire de- rartment. This picture is replete with thrills and has some sensational scenes.
 Judgment of the Storni," picture written by Pittsburgh woman with no previous experience in scenario writing. is the big feature that has been booked for four days, starting Sunday night.
 For Monday, Tuesday and Wednes- day, in addition to Judgment of the Storm," will be the latest episode of Fighting Blood"
 On Thursday another William Fox special will be introduced, starring Buck Jones in "Hell's Kitchen" a dynamic and thrilling tale of the west as it was a few short years ago.

THE GREAT" IS
 SPLENDID ENTERTAINMENT
Alice Brady Opens Three Day Visit To Parsons' Theafer In
 Hartford
(By Herald Reyiewer).

E th1 IlFIAtd hcNtSHgIV.
 In "Zander the Great, which open. ed a three day engagement at Par sons theater, Hartford. last night Alice Brady ha. selected an interest ing story wiich is peculiarly suited to her fascinating personality.
 A comedy, with enough tears and heart throbs sprinkled through it to make it appeal, "Zander the Great is deserving of better support than it received at its first showing in Hart ford. What the audience lacked in numbers was compensated for by ap- preciation of the really fine acting of all the characters.
 "Zander" is a little boy who has been left without mother in a small New Jersey town. Miss Brady, as Mamie Adams" thwarts the select men who have determined to send him to an orphan asylum, kidnaps him in broken down automobile, and starts for Arizona to find his father who, she has learned, is living in the far west. Their experiences on a ranch form the basis of the plot
 Miss Brady made charming Mamie Adams" self-reliant girl who has managed to win her own way in the world with large supply of self-confidence and optimism, and nothing much more. Victor Suther- land is splendid as Dan Murchison", boss of the ranch where Mamie" and " .Zander" end their long trip. Bickford gives fine portrayal of Texas" typical COW puncher.
 The lighter strokes in the picture are supplied by Joseph Allen as Good News" the ranch cook; Will liam Wadsworth as Jackson Pepper, and Raymond Van Sickle as "Elmer Loveioy"
 Little James Dunn, as ".Zander", stamps himself as one of the clever est child actors on the stage by his characterization of the waif. With all the simplicity of childhood. he reaches right out over the footlights and twines himself around the hearts of the.audience.
 Others in the cast are Joseph Baird, William Leith, James s. Bar 'ett and Dan Moyles, who give a splendid account of themselves in 'oles which do not allow them op- 'ortunity to show their full ability.

dopesters in the city series game at
Irwin field on Friday afternoon at
2:30 The north side team has had
a disastrous season with no bright
spots to tighten the gloom.
The only hope of the Shortridge

team will fight harder against its
city opponents than at any time in
the past. The lineup is very uncer-
Rain as Coach Goldsberry is waiting

Tech gridders are very confident.
The Green and White has not had a
very suspicious season, but they
feel as though they are good enough
to down Shortridge.
School spirit at the East Side in

fall and attendance has fallen off.
The city contests always revive in

expected. School will be dismissed

Franklin rooters see a fine oppor-
tuuity for Duegan's team to smear
Wabash this year. The locals lost
a close game TO Butler early in the
season, but De PAW was defeated

bash.
Baptist rooters were eager for
Wabash to defeat Butler last Satur-
day, but the Little Giants failed.
Now Franklin desires to beat the
Scarlet by a larger margin than
Butler registered.
Dugean's warriors are In fine
shape and Charlottesville reports say
Wabash is ready physically but
slightly low in spirit, owing to the
Butler disaster.
Veteran grid followers here fear
the Scarlet. however. and predict the
struggle will be furious. Old-timers
are inclined to judge Wabash in a
different light than local student
roOters.

So far this year the Illinois team

In the East, where championships

DE PAUW'S STOCK
GETS BOOST FOR
BUTLER CONTEST
Return of Tiger CrippIes and
New Spirit Changes
Dope Somewhat,

Slowly but surely a feeling is per-
meating the sport atmosphere here
abouts that De Paw may not be
such soft pickings for Butler as was
thought a few days ago. The Green
castle outfit seems to be finding
some pep and ginger.
The cripples are getting back into
shape and the spirit Of the squad
which dropped after the Illinois fray
has reached its very peak of the
season.
Tiger Back Field
In practice on Wednesday reports
from Greencastle state the team
lined up with Mas and Sturtridge
at halves, Struck at full and Adams
at quarter.
Butler defeated the Tigers here
last year, 10 to 0, and predictions
have been made the locals would
make the margin more decisive on
Saturday. With De PAW in shape
however. the battle may be closer
than the grid fans imagine.
Paul Is Needed
II Paul is unable to play Butler
will lose a star both on defense and
offense. Wednesdays practice at
Irwin field was confined mostly to
drilling on defense against the for
ward pass. The yearlings tossed
passes which the varsity were able
to break up in most instances.
Today's work was to be somewhat
heavier with scrimmage against the
freshmen, who win use De Paw for
nation.

q
In the pre-game dope Purdue and
Indiana are the underdogs. There
is a feeling, however. that one Of
the State outfits. AT least. may
spring a surprise. The Crimson
from Bloomington is given more Of
a chance against Northwestern than
is Purdue against Chicago.
In Top Form
Both of the Hoosier elevens have
had a weeks rest and should be in
good shape for the battles. / L.

work out there Friday. Purdue will

Indications point to a record at
tendance of Purdue followers at the
Chicago game. The annual excursion
Lii be run and Purdue's famous
&shilitary Band viii accompany the
crowd and provide one OF the
features OF the days program.
Purdue followers are apprehensive
of Chicago's steam roller driving at
tack and its effect on Purdue's line,
but at the same time they are
placing much reliance in Phelan's
running attack and his forward
passing game. Purdue's line Will be
out-weighed at least fifteen pounds
to the man.
Reserves Are Few
The one big hurdle Phelan's team
will have TO leap is in matching its
comparatively meager reserves
against Stages. The Maroons used
thirty-five men against the Crimson
team. Purdue's line has not been
scored through this season, but il

Indiana has defeated Northwest

that two straight is enough and the

the Purple is much stronger this sea

The Evanston students and alumni
are going to start getting rid" Of
the I. L. jinx Friday night. As part
OF the Homecoming celebration there
