FEATURE BILL IS
 NOW AT PALACE

Several special features compose the movie bill at the Palace for the last two times tonight. In the weekly is the New York welcome to Capt. Fried, heroic captain, whose life story is now being published in The Empire. Then, there is a new novelty dancing act, old-time and brought up-to-date that is a good feature in itself. The orches- tra helps put this over by playing the music to the different dancing acts. The comedy is also good and shows a side show at Venice, pleas ing for both adults and children.
 The feature bill is tHellship Bron- son." starring Noah Beery, Mrs. Wallace Reir, Reed Howes and dainty Helen Foster.
 Sliding decks-the heaving mo- ton of gigantic waves-a blood mad skipper and a fear-crazed crew-a battle to death on sway ing treasherouc ladder hundred feet above the deck All this and much more makes up this thrilling sea drama.

 Admitted to Bar
 Admitted to the bar in 1878. he had practiced law but a short time when he began his financial career by organizing national bank in Cleveland. Later he became presi- dent of the Society for Savings in Cleveland, a director in the Erie Railroad, the National Surety Com pany.

 In his career as a railroad finan- cier, he was chairman of the Board of Directors of the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railroad, a director of the Missouri Pacific. participated in the purchase of the Western Mary land Railroad and assisted the Gould railroad to enter Pittsburgh.
 Governor of Ohio
 MT. Herrick was governor of Ohio, from 1903 to 1905. He was one of the staunchest friends of President Mckinley, came to his assistance when he met with financial re- verses, and was also treasurer of the Mckinley Memorial Association. For long time he was a member of the Executive Committee of the Republican party.
 On his return to Paris in 1914 an enthusiastic group of friends in Cleveland attempted to start a movement to nominate him for the presidency, but MT. Herrick declined these honors, declaring that he would not capitalize whatever credit was due him for European service. While in France Colonel Her rick made a study of agricultural finance and worked out with the French government a plan for the exchange between the two coun- i, tries of information on farm fi- nance. We cannot hope for an increase in food production unless deresving farmers can get low rates and long periods on money" he de- clared.
 Col. Herrick married Carolyn M. Parmely, daughter of M. R. Par mely of Dayton, Ohio, June 30, 1880. Mrs. Herrick died in 1918. A son Parmely Webb Herrick, resides in Cleveland.

 She is a woman interested in life and in people. Her good health shows in her sparkling brown eyes and her keen interest in all man. ner of subjects,
 Social service work always has been intensely interesting to her. The Y. w. c. A., the Community chest and similar activities claim much of her time. For several years she was president of the Y. w. c. A. and was one of two wom- en members of the comrnittee of 30 of the St.. Paul association of pulp lie and business affairs. Since coming to Washington she has con- tinued her philanthropic work and now is on the board of the Y. w. c. A. and the NeighborhUoa house.

WIFE OF NEW ATTORNEY, GENERAL s.
 JOINS HUSBAND IN OUTDOOR HOBBY
By SUE MCNAMARA "A. P. Feature Writer

WASHINGTON, April l. A An outdoor family :s that of the new attorney general, William D. Mitch ell. And no member of it more thoroughly enjoys outdoor sports and excursions than Mrs. Mitchell
 She accompanies her husband and two sons on camping trips to noun tains and lakes. She goes ice boating, tobogganing and skating with them They have camped in the Rockies, making the trip with pack horses.
 Playing golf and riding are other diversions, Mrs. Mitchell enjoys.
 While they have lived in Wash ington for three and half years, or since MT. Mitchell was made so- licitor general, they still maintain their summer home at White Bear Lake, Minn, and expect to re- turn there this summer.
 One son, William, 25, practices law in St. Paul, occupying the same office his father had. He Is the third William Mitchell of the fam fly to practice law in that city, his grandfather having been justice of the supreme court of Minnesota 20 years. Another son, Bancroft, 23, is attending the Harvard school of business administration Both boys attended Princeton university and Harvard graduate schools. Neither is married.
 The strong family ties and love of home is evident the moment one steps over the doorsili of the Mitch- ell home in Washington. King Coal, black spaniel, welcomes one at the door along with Worthir1g- ton, the butler. Coal makes one feel right at home and does a lot of tail wagging while Worthington goes to announce the caller.
 The living room is long pleasant and sunny, with windows looking out on trees and ravir1es. Deep,

 grees backward from the lamps.s
 The effects come mainly from a new type of reflector, designed by Dr. Walter Darcy Ryan, director Of the illuminating laboratory ot the General Electric company.
 Although the reflector resembles the conventional shape somewhat carrying the bulb in the middle of the concave, it is modified so the maximum rays for the longest range do not come out of the center as in ordinary practice. Instead all of them are projected from the top, coming from under the brows of the housing.
 This effect is obtained from 19 curves in the surface of the re- Hector, no two alike, and each &C., curate to within one thousandth of an inch.
 Illuminating engineers, Dr. Ryan says, can save definite propor- ton of the 25,000 lives lost annually in automobile accidents by teaching the public headlight consciousness. He says there are two headlight factions, one favoring a dual beam system, and the other, like himself, advocating a single beam having all the advantages of a long range beam for distance and a short range beam for spread, without the disadvantages of either as applied to the dual system

HOOT GIBSON AT
 PALACE TOMORROW

Hoot Gibson will. be at the Pal ace tomorrow and Wednesday in 'sThe Rawhide Kid" adapted from Peter B. Kyne's story of "The Lions and The Lamb"
 "The Rawhide Kid" concerns the travels and escapades of a care free Irish cowpuncher who would rather fight than eat. He meets a pretty girl and her father in the heart of the desert and discovers that they were run out of town. He takes them back and invites any, one to attempt such a trick again.
 His experience in trying to out wit the williams and at the same time endeavoring to justify himself with the law, makes the perfect screen story admirably suited to the talents of one of the best casts ever selected for an outdoors pro- duction.

 Attracts Attention
 MT. Herrick attracted worldwide attention as American Ambassador to France during the war by his refusal to leave Paris when the French government and the diplo- matic corps fled to Bordeaux to escape the threatened German in- vasion of 1914 In addition to the intricate matters connected with his own office, he also assumed charge of the British, Japanese and Turkish embassies, and by his calmness and devotion to duty in the face of great danger, is credited with having done more than any other individual to prevent the out break of disastrous panic in Paris.
 Another problem of immense pro- portions which confronted him dur ing the early days of the war, was the necessity of providing advice and financial aid for the thousands of American subjects stranded in France. Through the formation of an American Committee he not only assisted the needy American travellers but aided more than 4,0oo English subjects to reach their homes These services caused the French government to bestow upon him the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor.
 Notable achievement
 Another notable achievement of MT. Herrick while in France was the American Relief C1earin g House, which he organized after the tourist problem had been disposed of. This organization took full charge of the transportation and distribution of supplies from Amer ica, which were arriving in great quantities. The committee contin- ued throughout the war as one of the most important relief agencies in Europe.
 Born in Huntington, Ohio, Oc- tober 9, 1854, MT. Herrick managed to attend school and earn living at the same time. He entered Oberlin College and Ohio Wesleyan University, but did not complete the course. That he found Knowledge outside of college textbooks, how ever, is evidenced by the fact that among the honorary degrees be-

STUDY
INFLUENZA CAUSE
Laboratory Tests Intended
to Determine What Virus Is
Responsible for Disease.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, January 14.-Laboratory
tests to determine, II possible, what
virus causes influenza will be under
taken this week by DR.. William II. Park,
head of the health departments bu-
reau of laboratories, and DR.. William
C. Noble, in charge of the laboratories
of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co.
The tests have been prompted by an
increase of reported cases OF that dis
ease since January /.
The experiment will be to determine
If the ordinary germs known to medi-
cine or other germs that are not known
are present in culture mats which will
be obtained under DR.. Mobiles direction.
The success of the test will depend
on whether the germ causing the pres
ent Nationwide epidemic is filterable
If it is not filterable an actual virus
ments in other epidemicS have lndl-
Gated that the virus is filterable.
But whether the influenza OF this
year and cases In previous years have
been caused by the same germ is not
known. Similar tests are being UNDER
taken by DIR. Edwin Jordan at the Uni
versity of Chicago, DR.. Frost at Johns
Hopkins and DR.. Milton j. Roseneau at
Harvard.
Dr. Park outlined some OF the OUT
standing research that has been under
taken since 1918. In that year workers
in the Mayo clinic discovered special
streptococcus which at first was be-
lieved to be the cause of influenza, but
which later was dicovered to be an
ordinary germ found in healthy Threats.
Prof. Robert Pfeiffer, in Germany, at
tempted to solve the mystery through
various media. He discovered growth
of tiny. baccili which he thought to be
the cause of influenza.
"Since then" said DR.. Park. we've
found that this bacillus is very preva-
lent in many respiratory diseases and
in healthy threats, and while some bac-
teriologists still believe in it, most of
us think it is simply a complicating
organism helping to cause pneumonia
as the pneumocci and streptococci."
Another reported discovery was that
of DIR. Peter Obitsky Of Rockefeller In
stitute, who four years ago found a
diptheroid bacillus which he failed to
find in cases that were pretty definitely
not influenza. He innoculated animals
with the bacillus and succeeded in
causing Inflammation of the lungs, but
that is as far as his experiment went.
