 The miners organized yesterday in Macoupin County, several coun- ties north of here. They planned to disregard Sheriff Robinson's warn ings and march into Franklin County where mines are being op- efated under the new .$5 scale. They are striking for a return to the old scale of $6.10s day.
 :srhe strikers riding in 1850 auto. mobiles and trucks, proceeded sduthward through Bond and Clin- ton Counties, then into this. Perry Cnunty. They were stopped twice here by deputy sheriffs, warned not tds proceed, then told that they corid not camp for the night at Derell, in Jackson County, as they had planned.
 The procession, stretching for miles along the highway. then was headed straight across the eastern bdrder toward Frank lin County, the men determined to 'enter the Tor. bfJden territory at once instead or waiting.
 The caravan passed through Du- quoin about 6 p. m. at about o. clock, the first automobiles reacn- ed. the county line. As they drove ovor a hill the leaders came face tn.face with Sheriff Robinson and his army of deputies. estimated at frfjm 300 to 800 men.
 kWhile the procession waited, Robinson told the strike leadecs' they would not enter or interefere in. any way with their brother union miners who were working in Franklin County under the new scale.
 There was not room at that point foT the automobiles to be turned around. Robinson said the men could drive on to ,Mulkeytown, Just across the border line, turn and re- cross the Muddy river homeward.
 There are many versions or what happened after that. Some witness esgsayr the deputies, most Of them citizens unused to firearms, snot first, others say the strikers start edsthe trouble.
 The automobiles which the men drove back through Duquoln were sprinkled with buckshot. Between 7Oaand 15O were so badly damaged their drivers abandoned them. Many. were run into ditches when the shooting started.
 Al United Press corrospenoeht counted 72 overturned automobiles infa stretch of six miles between here and Mulkeytown early to-day.

It's d wise girl who knows her man
and it's a wiser girl who knows
now TO get her man and keep him.
But, those three girls, Mae Clarke,
Jean Harlow and Marie Provost in
Three Wise Girls the Columbia
film showing tomorrow at the Capt.

knowing of their species-wise in
wisecrackS, wise to wiseguys and pos
sessed of wisdom of their own.
All three of them come from the
country to make good in the big city.
Mae Clarke sets her cap for Jane
son Thomas, who plays suave, dan
gerously fascinating banker, sepa-
rated from his wife, and out for all
he can get. Jean Harlow, whose dis
arnling attractiveness lands her in
and out of jobs with astonishing
rapidity, falls for handsome Walter
Byron, and he in turn falls like a
ton of bricks for her. But /. 4. there
is a catch. Is Jean wise enough to
overcome it? And then there is
Marie Provost, who is tired of tipping
envelopes, and wants to make a home
for Byron's handsome brute of q

who made Butch Mccall in 1.-THE

iArliss Has Never
Seen Film He Made
Eight Years Ago

An enterprising property man with
a long memory brought an eight
year-old issue of motion picture
trade magazine to the Warner Bros.
set where George Arliss and COM
pany were making early scenes for
the latest Arliss picture, "A Success
full Calamity" coming to the Para
mount Theatre tonight.
It contained, among other inter-
esting items, a lengthy discussion Of
the probability of talking pictures be-
ing an unrealizable dream, and a
cover advertisement featuring George
Arliss in $50 a Week
Arliss made five silent pictures.
among which 1920 Week" is one of
the least we'll known. Even his old
associates of pre-talkie days had al
most forgotten the production.
"Yes-yes, I remember made it,"
Arliss said when it was called to his
attention. But never saw it. I
was out of the country when it was
released - or something happened,
I've forgotten just what. Anyway
I'm sure I never saw the finished
picture
AS though reminded by this Incl
dent. Mr.. Arliss set Jenner, his valet,
to the job OF getting him seats to
the theatre where his most recently
released picture, THE Man Who
Played God" was being shown.
