JAIL JUROR FOR
BEING A.W.O.L.

After four days Of absence from
the trial of liquor charges against
the Ambassador Oyster House,
which added further complications
to the already eventful history of
the case. Charles J. Richardson,
missing Police Court juror. was ar
rested yesterday.
Less than half an hour after his
arrest by Sergt. o. j. Letterman
and Detective w. F.. Burke, Rich
ardson was sentenced to pay a fina
of $40 and serve 4S hours in jail,
with another AZ hours in default
Of the fine, for contempt of court.
The sentence was the maximum
the law allows for the charge. Rich
arison made no defense in court.
In imposing sentence Judge r. z.
MattingIy said Il regret that l can
not impose a more severe penalty
under the law. I could not ask
these eleven men to serve on the
same jury for your verdict would
not make any difference one way
or the other"
Richardson was arrested at the
home of a friend in the 500 block
of F st. n. e. The officers said
they covered two front doors of
the house and prevented an attempt
of Richardson to run out by that
route.
Later Sergeant Letterman pur-
sued him to the dining room Of
the house and Richardson said, II
give up.P
The defendants in the liquor trial
are William Deegan, his brother,
Francis, Clarence Myers and Bur
CESS Hart. They were arrested in
a raid on the oyster house August
8. An outgrowth of the raid was
a complaint by E. A. Rickert, a,
civilian. that he was attacked by
a prohibition agent and by mem
Der of the vice squad.
Earlier in the day Judge Mat
tingly declared a mistria1 in the
case and it is probable that new
jury will start all over again in
hearing the testimony. The trial
only lasted two days. but was char
acterized by much oratory and many
objections by attorneys for both
sides.
Assistant District Attorney David
A. Hart is prosecutor and Harry J.
Whalen represents the alleged
owners of the oyster house.

ELTINGE THEATRE


Patrons of the Eltinge theatre are
about to be introduced to a new
Richard Barthelmess.. On Tuesday
and Wednesday they will be pre-
sented to the stars newest feature
production, ""Out of the Ruins" a
fast-movnig and dramatic screen
version of the we'll known short
story by Sir Philip Gibbs.
In "Out Of the Ruins" Barthelmess
will be seen for the first time in
years in a role strictly calling for
love scenes rather than character de-
lineation. In his previous produc-
tions the star has been noted for
his character studies, such as in
Broken Blossoms" "Tol'able Da-
vid,"s 1.-The Patent Leather Kid" and
THE Moose" In "Out of the Ruins, -
however, he is given not only excel
lent histrionic opportunities, but is
also given a beautiful love story.
Although this story is laid in
France during and after the recent
World war, the story is really one
concerning love and its tribulations.
Barthelmess in the role of French
Blue Devil deserts his regiment in
order to be with his sweetheart. His
court martial as a deserter, his SEN
tence to be shot and what follows
form the unusual denouement of the
Gibbs narrative. Marian Nixon is
seen as the heroine.
