me this day, but I managed to keep them away
from the boat by using my oar like spear and
hitting them with 1t. They would come up
under the boat. hit it with their tails and spin
me around several times when I did not see

of my canteen to one Of the oar locks; with the

both hands in a horizontal position and placed
my pliers in the center. This formed kind
of funnel. through which the rain water dripped

The story is novel and the cast superb, featuring such well known stars and favorites as Lila Lee, Fred Kohler, Raymond Hatton and Sidney Black mer.
 The companion feature is "Swanee River" based on the famous song of the same name. It is a beautiful love tale of the old south. The prin- cipal players are Grant Withers and Thelma Todd, the latter making her first departure from comedy roles for which she has become famous but nevertheless proving her right to be considered among the talkies formost dramatic actresses with her marvellous work in this production.

 Signs of the normal springtime boom have failed to- appear So far. Production in some of the leading industries of the great manufacture ing countries, in fact, has fallen lower than in the dull winter months. The Scandinavian countries alone have shown indications of shaking off economic lethargy. Europe finds her brightest hope this spring in reports that conditions are improving in the United States. A few years ago such reports might have aroused only jealousy. To-day they are welcomed, for Europe feels that American industry must be the pace-maker for the rest of the world. The international labor office of the League of Nations has gathered
 statistics on unemployment in the leading countries of the world up to tions they show that, unemployment
 sharply increased from leading cen-
 ters show that this upward tenden-
 cy has been maintained in subse- quent months. 9
 In Great Britain, for instance, the
 registered unemployed at the end of
 January numbered 2,044,209. To-day
 the total is approximately 2,700,000. Information gathered by the inter-
 national labor office and various
 business houses indicates it may be
 many months before industry will
 speed up enough to absorb an appre-
 ciable number of unemployed.
 All the key industries in Great Britain set lower production records in the early months of 1891 than they did during the same period last year. Labor disputes helped check progress in the coal mines, on the
 railways and in the weaving indus try.
 In France, the coal trade is de- pressed. The iron and steel trades are also dull. Cotton spinners at Lille are curtailing production and the important Roubaix Wool indus

Even the alphabetically inclined doubt whether the number of unemployed will drop below 100000 this year. A. blight has fallen on the Belgian steel industry, while stocks of coal are increasing. f4s
 News from the Netherlands has become more discouraging. Short time is being extended. Shipping is depressed and sugar factories are working at less than capacity.
 Scandinavian news, however, is more encouraging. swedish wood pulp. manufacturers and newsprint makers recently signed fair-sized contracts: with American firms. Dan isn farmers took hope from the re- cent rally. in butter prices.
 In n1virtually all European countries wages have been cut and working hours shortened in order to keep as many men as possible in employ ment. Great Britain has reduced the income of civil service workers. Employees of all the large British steamship lines lave been forced Ito accept a 10 per cent salary cut. Min CTS in Belgium and Germany, sailors in Norway and industrial workers in Czechoslovakia have all had their wages reduced.

BROADWAY SENSATION "FIFTY MILLION FRENCHMEN" TO
 OPEN 4 DAY RUN AT STATE,

Coming here with the acclaim and enthusiastic approval of the press and public of the larger cities of the nation, Fifty Million French men, opens a four day engagement at Warner Brothers State theater tomorrow.
 '.F'ifty Million Frenchmen' is a brilliant, natural color screen version of the play which captured Broad way last season. Many of the same people that appeared on the stage eare seen in the picturization. Will liam Gaxton again portrays the role Eof Jack Forbes, the young American millionaire who wages with his two friends, Cummings and Baxter, that within two weeks he can woo and wed the pretty girl he has merely glimpsed but never met, and all without cent in his pocket. Helen Broderick again plays Violet, the strong-minded American tourist who throws so many monkey wrenches in the machinery. Lester Crawford, who plays Baxter. was also in the play. Cummings, the originator of the wager, himself mildly desirous of the pursued lady, is deftly played by John Halliday.
 The lady all the fuss is about is bewitchingly played by beautiful Claudia Dell. Nat Carr and Vera Gordon makes much of their clever Jewish dialect as tourists in Paris. Carmelita Geraghty is good as an excitabie mamselle, and Charles Judels is his Frenchiest as M. Pernasse.
 But the bagful of monkeys is that outlandish team of clowns, Olsen and Johnson, who enact the pussy footing sleuths that pursue every body, catch nobody, but cause tre- mendous laughter in the doing of it.
 As an added attraction celebrating Players and Patrons Jubilee Week an added comedy entitled ''The Stol- en Jools'' will be presented. Tn the cast are 55 of Hollywoods foremost

 States Attorney Hugh M. Alcorn is expected to begin introducing evil dence of actual fraud when the trial is resumed next week.

 Lawyers for the five defendants = F. F. Kingston, Harold Kingston. Edmund J. Grandahl, Frank H. Smith and Colonel Lewis l.. Field have endeavored in cross -examina- tion to bring out that Kingston's con- nection with the subsidiary com- panies was perfectly legitimte.
 All of the state witnesses have been employees of Kingston who tes- tified without exception as to how they were elevated rapidly from such occupations as toolmaker, bookkeeper, clerk. etc, to positions as trustees and directors of the various Kingston interests.
