"SQUAW MAN" TO SHOW LAST
 TIMES TONIGHT
Interesting Scenes Are Laid in England and
 Arizona

"The Squaw Man" which will be shown for the last times to- night at the Capitol theatre, is magnificently invested with old English castles and authentic Ari- zona scenery It tells vividly and with full regard for the new Salkie technique. Edwin Wilton Royle's story of an Englishman who leaves his country, taking on his shoul- ders a disgrace which belongs to another, becoming an Arizona ranch owner, and the husband of an Indian
 Tense and Interesting
 The situation, which has gripped audiences unfailingly since William Faversham introduced the stage play in 1905, is the arrival of the girl he loved in England, to find him the father of seven-year-old boy, half scion Of English nobility, half-Apache Indian.
 An unusually fine cast interprets this powerful and thrilling story. Baxter in Here's Role Warner Baxter has the hero's role of Jim Carston. The two fem mine leads are Lupe Velez as the Indian Naturich, and Eleanor Boardman, who gives a very ac- ceptable Lady Diana.
 Roland Young, with fine suav- ity, carries the burden of convinc- ing Baxter that though he made mistake in marrying an Indian he should not deny his boy the right of his English heritage.
 Charles Bickford, in the western lseouences is Cash Hawkins, the villain.
 Modern Indian Chief
 The Tabywanna of Mitchei Lewis is perfect and convincing picture of an Indian chief, modern style. Other excellent characteri- cations include those of Dickit Moore as Little Hal; Lawrence Grant as the General; Julia Faye as Mrs. Chichester Jones; Pau Cavanaugh as Sir Henry; Raymone Iatton as Shorty; Dewitt Jenning! as the Sheriff; Victor Potel a Andy; Ed Brady, the sinister, a.

Served as Assistant Engi-

When the assignment of Lieut.. Rob-
ert E. York to be Assistant Engineer
Commissioner of the District OF Co
lunbia was announced, it was thought
that he was the first officer Of his rank
to be appointed to this particular post
of duty. But investigation has dis
closed that two lieutenants OF another
generation have preceded Lieut.. YORK
in the place he Is now called to NIL.
Under the present commission gov
ernment of the District, organized in
1878, Maj. w. ]. Twining was Engineer
Commissioner, and he had as his as
sistants Lieut.. Richard Leveridge Hoxie
and Lieut.. Francis Vinton Greene.
Lieut.. Hoxie, born at New York Au-
gust 7, 1874, and graduated from West
Point in 1868, saw active service IN the
Civil War from 1861 to 1864 and was
first lieutenant by September %, 1870:
He served the District from 1874 until
1888. first as a member Of the Board
of Public Works and later, under Maj.
TWining, as Assistant Engineer Com
missioner. He retired from the Army
on August 7, 1908, with the rank OF
brigadier general. His Washington
home was at 1882 K street. He died In
Florida April %, 1880.
Lieut.. Greene, a native of Providence,

Greene, was born June 81. 1850, and
graduated from West Point in 1870.
He was Assistant Engineer Commis-
sioner from 1879 to 1885. His later
career took him to Russia, where he
was military attache of the United
States legation and observer in the
Russian army in the campaigns against
Turkey. He taught at West Point,
served in Cuba, did surveying and as
Economical work, and resigned from the
Army in 1899 with the rank of major

fore Economic Conditions
Can Revive It.

PARIS.-One of the consequences of
the economic war now being waged in
Europe will be the doom of handmade
lace in France. The industry had been
living from hand to mouth since the
war; now it is dying because foreign
countries have applied a customs tariff
ranging from so to go per cent ad
valorem and depression has closed most
of the home markets.
1t is feared that even when better
times come it will be exceedingly diff
cult to revive this home industry, for
lace making is based on tradition, the
principles of the art being handed down
from mother to daughter in the villages
where lace is made. After number OF
years most of the cid lacemakers will
have died and the younger generation
no longer will be interested.

maintaining the traditional position OF
Bavaria in the German Reich.
To understand the present situation
in South Germany, and realize the I'M
mense importance of the. part Ba-
varia may play in German politics In
the near future, one should recall that,
until the war broke out in 1914. she
enjoyed almost complete independence.
The state collected and levied taxes,
operated its railways and posts and had
its own currency A specified sum was
turned over to Berlin annually as con-
tribution. Even the Bavarian Army was
under supreme command Of the Wit
telsbach rulers Today the Reich
levies and collects taxes and RENTS
certain amounts to Bavaria. Less al
fected than other parts OF Germany py
the economic crisis and depression, Ba-
varia, nevertheless, finds herself sup
porting the elaborate relief schemes
carried out in the industrial districts
and Northern Germany. Deriving no
direct benefit from the huge sums she
contributes to the Reich, she naturally
resents the drain on her wealth.
While Bavaria Is not necessarily pro-
Hohenzollern land the peopole never
did take kindly to the Prussian military
oligarchy which they blame for losing
the war; the region at heart Is mon
archist. Republicanism and socialism
never obtained a foothold among the
peasants and small proprietors and
tradesmen who comprise more than
two-thirds of Bavaria's 1880 900 popu-
lation. Furthermore, 10 per cent Of the
people are Roman Catholics and are

Electric Manpower in Washington
Costs Only Two Gents for Eight Hours

Obviously, no American home could
afford to have any such force Of men
either at work or in reserve for fur
nishing us with motive power for all
these modern conveniences. The plain
fact is that the energy that comes
from the power station into our homes
to drive the household machinery and
to light every room at will does not
displace man labor. Unemployment
does not result from our lavish use of
the energy derived from mineral fuels
or water power; If we were suddenly
cut off from this cheap supply from the
power house and could not substitute
gas for electricity in some Of its won-
der-working functions. we would not re-
place it with man-driven machines. We
simply could not afford the service and
would go without.
Primitive Comparison Made.
All this comparison with manpowel
may seem mere theory. However, in
the frontier countries we may find
modern invention making demands
upon primeval methods, with resulting
facts that demonstrate theory. In

Manchurian railways. The Manchu-
rian adventure has forced all that vast
body of Western opinion which believes
in the sanctity of treaties and hates war
to sympathize with China against
Japan. The crude methods of the
military potentates at Toxic and at
Mukden. with their chronic over
estimation of the stupidity Of Western
observers, have utterly discredited their
governments policy. I will not dwell
on all the accompaniments Of this
policy, on the unsavory pretext of the

some of its incidents, on the economy

Chairman Federal Power Commission.
What electricity costs the consumer
is the starting point for popular dis
cussion; what electricity costs to pro-
duce and distribute Is subject for
engineering study. The forgotten side
OF the whole matter Is what is elec-
tricity actually worth. After all, has
this service, that some 100000 heads
of families pay for every month, real
value fully warranting its price to the
consumer?
The best APPROACH to the determining
of value is to consider cost Of substi-
tutes, and the final measure Of true
value of energy is mans own energy
the man-hour.
Following this line Of thought, what
is the replacement value of the elec-
tricity we use in our homes in terms
of manpower? To be practical, rather
than acaoemic, let me, for illustration,
take a recent electric bill of my own
and translate the kilowatt-hours on
that bill into man-hours: I find that
I had the equivalent of more than 3ia
strong armed servants working for me
8 hours a day each, that Is. for the "a
hours more than 10 men in all. And
for the electric energy from the power
house over at Benning I paid $6.3l,
which would figure out little over 2
cents a day for the man-power repre-
sented. Thus. the replacement value
of the electric current in terms OF
human labor, at present-day wages. Is
at least a hunc redfold what We actually
pay the local electric light and power
company.
Peak Often Reached.
However, this statement Of equiva-
lent manpower Is far from being the
whole Of the truth. There are times
every week when the probable load
put on the electric wires entering my
home Is something like $40 watts in
stead Of the actual average OF 253
watts shown by the meter. This larger
demand for current comes when the
electric washer, the refrigerator. the
