DISEASE MENACES
 THE FLOOD AREAS

tContinucd from First fage) ton Army and others were working 10 succor those most sorcly afflict- cd, while medical authorities sound ed warnings against drinking of un- boiled water where there had been any possibility of pollution. In a number of places. inoculation against typhus and other rayages was being urged as a precautionary measure.
 Railroad Service Resumed
 Railroad communication was being gradually restored. In Yer mont little could be done but in New Hampshire and Massachusetts the various companies pressed with vigor their efforts to patch together the intricate network of lines which the storm turned topsy turyy.
 As a result, the milk situation in this city and in other cities unaf- focted by the flood was somewhat on the road to normal after a partially milk-less Sunday. Even today, however, in the face Of strenuous attempts by milk and railroad com- panics the situation was far from satisfactory.
 The Boston and Maine railroad has succeeded in opening it's own lines to the west with the aid of 4,- 000 construction men and hundreds of cars of stone while the Boston and Albany was still being forced to detour it's through trains 150 miles through Connecticut in order to reach Albany, x. Y.

Hotels and Liquor

The Chicago Tribune recently contained a prominent
item in the impetus given to the building of ho-
tells in Ontario since the vote prohibition, and the
plans substitute liberal legislation covering the
sale of Intoxicating liquor The Peoria Transcript in
editorial, becomes very enthusiastic the
alleged result of the change in the Ontario law The
Transcript says:

1t is apparent that many people the ground do not

A PEEK EACH WEEK
AT MOTION PICTURES
BARDELYs THE MAGNIFICENT


Not Bardelys but the producers are
magnificent. And how!
Metro Goldwyn- Mayer no doubt paid
Rafael Sabittnd plenty dor the story.
John Gilbert was secured to do the
director. Added to this the producers
spent more money on che production
as whole than did the king OF France
whom Bardelys served and kept so
well entertained.
The story concerns a wager made
by our Bardelys to wdn the heart OF
a fair (and how purely damseI. The
adventures he goes thru until she is
finally and snuggly in his embrace
include duels, horseback riding,
swimming a river. climbing wall Ito
fair damgels bedroom) and gymnas-
tics aplenty that heretofore had been
the sole movie property OF only Doug
las Fairbanks.
The comparison "a very striking.
All the handsome swagger, romantic
physicalculture fandangies and-yea,
brother-even the neatly trimmed
brother-(wfbhort which, says q
Spanish proverb. a man is nike an
egg without sat!)-al, all the old
familiar traces are here. But there
Is also another comparison 10 be made.
The love making of our hero has been
intensified many degrees Fahrenheit.
The death of Valentino made room for
another great lover and both darec-
tor and producers, anxious for the
popularity from which all golden
blessings flow, make bid in this pic
ture to place John Gilbert first In the
hearts of his country-women. In this
incidentally they have done a good
Job. The love making is artistic, hot
stuff and puts John Gilbert one step
ahead of his rival hOt-poppa, John
Barrymore.
Eleanor Boardman is the much
sought maiden and 10 her credit goes
a job well done. Roy Darcy sneers
and sniffs and shows his teeth in
we'll established, old style villainy. He
could have sneered less without spoil
ing the picture.
If you are in the mood bor a pic
ture of the times when men were
gentlemen, and women wore seven
petticoats-you will find Bardleys the
Magnificent at the Chicago Theater.
The costumes are gorgeous. The
settings are splendid. The photog
raphy is firstrate. Gilbert Is hand
some. The story moves fast. Oh,
what wad Of money Metro Goldwyn-
Mayer must have spent!

"THE GORILLA HUNT"

You will find in "The Gorilla Hunt"
some of the qualities that made
Grass" and "Moana of the South
Sea" the wonderful pictures they
were. Recording the progress of
hunt for the gorilla there are inter-
woven flashes of the life of the Afri-
can Negro. Animal life and the prim-
tive human life are blended in this
Photographic record Of an African ex-
petition. 1t is a quiet record, occa-
sionally beautiful and at moments
thrilling. 1t is always interesting.
Ben Burbridge, on expedition for
the Belgian government and the
Smithsonian Institute for the gorilla,
now fast becoming extinct, takes the
picture. The majestic Congo, with
its jungled shores interspersed with
occasional villages, begins the movie
record of this African trip. The Sa-
fari, human freight transport of hun
dreds of natives, is pretty sight of
beautifully muscled bodies.
In the progress of the expedition to
the distant mountainous regions be-
yond even where Stanley and Living
ston made exploration history we are
given the life as it is found. The
country fairly teens with animal life.
Deer, python, crocodiles, hippopotami,
elephants, lizards and lions come un-
der the lens to Intervene thru the
film.
Most interesting is human life. Gus
toms of cannibals and pigmies are
caught, and these primitive peoples
brought before our eyes. There is
some remarkable native dancing that
will please our black bottom enthu-
siasts. They will find no trouble in
recognizing various steps and contor-
tons.
Then comes the actual gorilla hunt.
Small animals are caught alive. The
shooting OF a monster of some $50
pounds, maddened, beating his breast
in rage, is done at range of only
thirty feet and splendidly photo
graphed to give you all the thrill of
this risky business.
The variety Of interest thruout the
film makes 1t extremely worth while.
Add to this the fact that there is no
patriotic goo splattered over it; no
eternal triangles; no chest-heaving
drama; mo preferable blondes; no
gush and mother stuff-and you can
easily see here is something on WHICH
1t Is worth spending your hard-earned
four-bits. You'll find It at the Castle

MICHIGAN CITY, Ind, June g.
Among witnesses called before the
State charities board in the investi-
cation of D. c. Stephensons charges
of mistreatment in Indiana State
Prison is John Norman, Knox,
prison trustee, it was learned to-
day.
Norman was expected here as
the charities board members
gathered for actual opening of the
inquiry.
Stephenson has charged that
Norman and Warden Walter H.
DAILY were involved in a plot which
had Stephenson's physical and
financial "undoing" as its ultimate
end.
The board held to it's determine
ton to keep its deliberations secret
until it makes its report to prison
trustees and Governor Jackson be-
fore July /.
Stephenson made his charges in
a petition for a ninety-day parole
filed with Governor Jackson. Now
it appears doubtful if he will re-
peat the charges in person before
the board, unless the hearing is
public.

FIXING DEALS SIFTED
Political Corruption Charges
DeIved Into Further.

Various alleged financial deals
with which city administration OFF,
Gals are said to have been linked,
were being investigated by county
prosecutors today. 1t is under
stood the deal involved many al
legged gambling games and bootleg
ging interest, from which money
was supposed to have been received
for political support.
Lines into the local underworld
have been obtained by the prosecu-
tors carrying on the political cor
ruption probe, it was indicated.
Pleas Oliver, cigar store operator,
at 122 w. Ohio ST., and politician,
was a witness this morning. Oliver
is reputed to have had much influ-

and this administration.
No witnesses were heard this aft

Civic Club Federation Head
Charges Indifference to
Public Wishes.
CONCRETE DEMANDED
FaVoritiSm for Asphalt at
Higher Cost ASSailed
by ]. r. White.

The board of works Tuesday was
compelled to sit and listen to John
F. White, president of the Indian
apoliS Federation of Community
Civic Clubs, declare that it has
shown indifference to public desires.
White rained criticism upon the
board for changing street specifl-
cations so property owners can not
get concrete paving unless they go
through a troublesome special
petitioning process. He presented a
federation resolution.
He asked that concrete be restored
to an even basis with asphalt, the
material which the board of works
has favored. Asphalt is much more
expensive than concrete.
Mind Is Made Up
President Virgil Vandagrifft, of
the board, took the verbal spanking
quietly and replied impassively:
1.-The board has looked into the
paving question and made up It's
mind"
The friends Of cheaper paving re-
ceived a further slap when City
Civil Engineer Frank c. Lingen=
felter recommended use of asphaltic
concrete on five streets, upon all of
which lower bids for concrete had
been received.
Property owners had asked for
concrete in each instance. They
may be able to induce the board to
heed their wishes by filing special
petitions within ten days.
These streets are:
Pershing Ave, Tenth st. to La
fayette Rd.; Healing Ave. between
Pratt and Tenth Sts.; Warman Ave,
between Tenth and Sixteenth Sts.;
Central Ave. between Wesitfield
Blvd. and Riverview Dr., and
Holmes Ave. between Tenth and
Sixteenth SITS.
LoOphOle for Concrete
Lingenfelter let up a bit in his
war on concrete when he recon-
mended that bids be received on
this material, along with others, on
two streets where property owners
had petitioned for concrete.
The streets we're Tenth St., be-
tween Healing Ave. and Sherman
Dr., and Palmer ST., between Spruce
st. and State Ave.
Lingenfelter recommended award
ing of the contract for concrete for
Cruft ST., between Marker and
Shelby Sts., saying he favored con-
crete for side streets. Concrete was
the only paving material bid on.
He recommended asphaltic con-
crete for Eleventh ST.. between Sher-
man Dr. and Colorado Ave. and be-
tween Rural Ave. and Tuxedo st.
The asphaltic concrete bids we're S
cents lineal foot cheaper than the
concrete bids, he said.
