FOR AN NN ‘”081' SOLEMN CEREMONIES FOR BURIAL OF SOLDIER IN NA. ,. TIONAL PEMETERY-X_%.LM{ ARMISTICE ‘DAY IS- THE DATE| president and His Cabinet on Foot Will Escort the Body to Arlington, AAfter It Has Rested Under the Gap- Itol's Dome, 138 A5 A — T ' " By EDWARD B. CUARK:, - Washington.—Plans for - the gere- onies attending the burial.ef the un- own American soldier who lost his, ife in the advance battle zone of ‘rance, virtually are completed. It ill be as solemn a ceremony as ever, as witnessed in this country. Pres- nt in the Arlington amphitheater, ‘Where the burial is to take place wlll‘ the highest officials:of the United, States government, civil and military,| nd with them will be representatives: bf all the great nations of earth. The koldler is unknown, but the honors giv-| en him will be known to all the world.} | One unprecedented honor is to be Rccorded, to the memory, of this un- known one who represents all of the Americans who gave their lives tor‘} their country in the great war. The President of the United-States and, all the members of the icabinet will, form an escort of honor for the un-| known when his body, émplaced upon; o military caisson, is borpe through; the streets of , Washington from the! capitol to the National ‘cemetery at! Arlington, ‘where sleep thousands of American heroes. The President and his cabinet will, walk with the body of the unidenti-| fied soldier. Heretofore, even on the; most solemn memorial occasions, the President and his cabinet have ap- peared either in carriages or in auto- mobiles. & | No Honor Omitted, i | For several days the remains of ‘the, American unknown will rest under tha; ‘dome of the capitol, while the multi-/ tudes pass by uncovered and:in rever-| ence. The coffin will rest upon thev‘ catafalque upon which the. remains' of - Presidents’ Lincoln, Garfield and: McKinley rested in the National cap-| itol just after their deaths as mnrtyn.i t The unknown hero was an enlisted; man of the United States army. En- listed men will have the high honor of, tendance on the remains of their| brother soldier. The eight body-bear-! ers will be enlisted men of the army, navy and marine corps who' received medals or citatlons for conspicuous gallantry under fire. * . Prior to the placing of the remalins on the “ship which will bring. them to the United States, high officers of the French military forces will place the Cross of the Legion of Honor upon the casket.- It is expected that in this country the insignin of the highest: orders of military merit of other coun- tries will be added to the French dec-! oration. The United States govern- ment will plase upon the ‘casket the Congressional Medal of Honor, the most coveted decoration which the United States has, to give, President Harding will deliver the nddress over the body of the unknown at the cemetery, on November 11. This address will be heard clearly and distinctly by audiences in New York,, Chicago, and San Francisco, to which, the words of the President will be; carried by telephonic wires Installed! by - engineers of the telephone com- pany. ‘The agency to be used is' i known as the Bell loud speakers. i Never Can Be. )dentified, i At times the question has been raised as to what would happen if the: identity of the unknown goldier ever: should be disclosed. It was urged thai some accident of circumstances mighi disclose hls name and regiment. ‘This possibility has been averted by the military officers of the government| who took the remains of four un- : known soldiers from the cemetery in I'rarnce, inclosed each in a casket, and then designated a non-commissioned’ officer to place his hand upon which ever one of the caskets he chose, | and this casket with its inclosed re- |} mains is the one which will be hon- ored at Arlington. Thus every possi- bility of identification of the remains through an accident of the future has’ been obviated. f The remains of the four unknown soldiers, one of which has become what really may be called “The Great Unknown,” were all found on the ad- _ vanced field of hard fighting, ‘and’each showed by its weunds that the soldier had died undér the fire of the enemy. ‘There. are some . scores: of unknown American dead still in France, but the one unknown who' will rest in Arling-'| ton. will. be representative of all of the others, and not only of the other unknown' dend; but of the dead whose, graves are marked with name, rank. and regiment. 1 The eight. bearers of the body of; the unknown dead include five army, gergeasts, a chief torpedo man and! Pwater tender Arom -the navy, and a marine gunnery — sergeant, 'l‘lxelr! snames in order are: Sergeanis Sam-' uel Woodhill, Harry Taylor, Thomas “D. Saundets; Louls Razga, James W, Dell, Chief Torpedo Man, James I} . Janey, Chief Water Tender ; Chavles Lee O’Connor, and Gunnery Sergeant! Ernest A. Janson. i \Fear Annoyance For Arms Meet. It is congress will adjourn in order not to! yet undecided whether or not | the meeLing of {he conference on iimi- tation of armaments. The President appgrently wants the lawmakers to stay-in session. . There are in congress today some ‘men who would like to keep things running while the conference is at the beginning of its work. There are only & few of these men, but some of them are influential and some of sthem may be ‘expected to plead with thefr fellow members that for safety reasons in their home districts they " SHould "op-" 'pose any adjournment. - “Sufety in. their home districts” menns.that some members of the house have large’ bodies of constituents who would like to storm the national legislature in behalf of some land or other over the seas at a time when the conference is trying to get settled down to work, The leaders know.that the country wants the grms mééting to be success- ful, and they fear that it bodies of mpen !| come here'to march up Capitol Hill with a demand for:this’ or a demand for that, the effect will be irritating to some of the conferees who are act- Ing in behalf of foreign governments. Of course, congress, under the Con- stitution, must meet early in Decemi- ber in its first regular session, but by that time the members feel the confer- [ ence will be well under way and that | the. conferees will have been . giver time to know that the bulk of the American people is with them if they have shown a disposition to strive sincerely to reach the desired end.* Italy and the Navy Question. "It has been supposed heretofore that the discussion of the reduction of tlie nayies nf the world would concern it- self ‘almost whelly with thé’ attitude of Great Britaly, ‘impnn and the Uni. ted States.; Itimay be that Italy will have sometlijhg rather strong to say, or, at any rate to intimate quietly, con- cerning action on the limitation™ of navies. : France never has shown any anxiety, concerning the navy situation, France believes today that Great Britain and the United. States have a friendship for her which will protect her coasts,’ and she feels that she has enough ships of her own to do police duty in her, various non-contiguous possessions. |France is concerned almost wholly in armament limitations matters within her ‘army. Italy seemingly wants to keep a navy as big as that of France, There is mo particular friction between the 1wo countries, but each has north Afri- can possessions and, moreover, Italy i8' somewhat concerned about possible, future activities of Czechoslovakia. She feels, apparently, that France is not entirely in accord with her policy as it concerns one or two of the coun-. tries -which recently;have come into existence as indepéndents, Clemenceau:Too Cynical. Georges Clemenceau, within a few days, has turned’in an alarm. . Per- haps ‘thie’ responding fire department wilt find that no conflagration is threat- enéd, "but, - nevertheless, Washington apptrently does not, like to see Clem- éhcenu in the act of putting a torch | to’the ‘arms conference house. | “Clemenceau’s words were not alto- | gether direct. He minimized the plan for*a conference and he maximized, his-bellef in the -good faith of the Uhited States.’ He lived here for a good while and he liked us, and there is nothing to show that. he does not: still like us, but, nevertheless, there.| are some_men in Washington who!i Avish ‘that’ this great leader of a cer-; tain . kind, of political thought in| Irance would lend his tongue and his; pen to help the cause of the confer-| ence, Instead of lending them to some-| thing ‘which reatds and sounds like cynicism. It cannot be assumed that the Jap-. anesé dre in a better mood toward the; llsgrinament conference as a result of | recent dispatches which have come| from the Orient and which have been given wide publicity through the press. | The Japanese have gone ahead at navy | bullding and it is said that they are| cupslrnctlng huge defensive works at! oné. of - thelr few? island possessions | which never before has been defended. | The real Japanese problem, so far as| entering Into any kind of a plan for| iftie limitation of armaments is con-| cerned, and especially entering into a plan for settling the Far ‘East ques- | tions, is. the problem of its people.; The people of the: islands are the real | power, notwithstanding the fact that | they are nct fully represented, so far| s thelr real influence goes in the na- tional councils. The people of Japan; seemingly have one thing in mind and (hat Is the disinclination of other peo- ple to treat them as equal because of the color of their skins. v The Smart Cashier. 5 . -A+customer of one of the largest! downtown do-it-quick lunchrooms had 4o unusual experience the other day. After he had handed in his check he «ifd quietly to the cashier: *I guess, you 'have ~made mistake in my ehange'. i The cashler lmmediately bristled up| and in a, belligerent tone audible to} half of those in the room shouted: { “You want to be mighty sure before! you acense anyone of short chunging you. What do you claim, anyway? “Qh,. nothing,” mildly. - replied the customer, “ouly you gave me 25 cents too much.” . “Keep it!" snarled the cushier, slam- ming the proffered coin down on the {counter and turning his back and walk- {ng to the farther end of his cage. thus indicating that so far as he was cou- cerned the Incident might be consld- sred definitely. closed.—Chieago Jour- nal.

There is the great character of the Northwest Mounted Police, a man travelling alone, trailing the outlaw, his only confidante his horse. - The story of a strong man torg by the el- ements of love versus duty. There is .| the softening beauty of the character of.a good woman fighting for her younger Lrother. These are a few of the reasons why “Go and Get Him” will be welcomed by lovers of pictures of the great Northwest: ' “RUSTLERS OF THE NIGHT” AT THE REX TOMORROW _The lengths to which a westerner will go in his desire to be revenged for a wrong that has been done him —especially if the honor of a woman is involved—is graphically portrayed in the latest Al Hart drama, “Rus- tlers of the Night.” This film which will be the featured attraction at the Rex theater tomorrow has cre- ated a great deal of comment ig, the motion picture industry, for the rea- son that it is onc ¢f the few film- . | Opening with a very unusual act, the iat 9. of his claim, and by fasteniyg a crime upon Joel Brand, forces him to give his. daughter’s hand in marriage ‘to Marsh, The conflict between the youth of the East and mysterious rider over Jewel’s hand, and the romantic' and daring of “The White Rider” in frus- trating the plans o/ Marsh and Grade to detraud Jewel’s father of his| claim, gives zest and human interest to a most original and unique pic- ture production. The suspense and thrills, the love interest, the human emotions, run the dramatic gamut | and give to ‘“The White Rider” a par- ticular fascination that should make it most inviting to the patrons of the Rex theater.” =+ '/ DIVERSIFIED VAUDEVILLE BILL TONIGHT AT GRAND As widely a diversified vaudeville program as was ever shown in the city will be shown at the Grand the- ater . tonight (Thursday) only. only one of its kind on the American stage, Chinese songs and instruments used in that country will be heard and seen for the first time by most people. The Goldies in “Apple Sauce” present an act full of spice and fla- vor.

The fourth and last act, “Zillah,” the Girl With the X-ray Eyes, is a demonstration of psychic phenomena that borders close to the uncanny. Alone and blind- | folded on the stage this remarkable girl calls the names of those present, gives. their addresses, answers ques- tions, and reads what is uppermost in their minds with unerring accuracy. | “The Man-Trackers,” with an all- star cast, is a new and up-to-date pic- | ture of the great outdoors and the| Northwest Mounted Police, full of romance and excitement.

TFakers in the old days were no less quick than their present brethren. to: take advantage ‘of scientific discover- ies to fool the public.

He :wrote quite a treatise on this! first - magic lantern and called it the “Arm' Magna Lucis et Umbrae.” “From scientific point of - view Kircher's discovery did. not make a very deep impression. - But half a dozen traveling magicfans some- how or other got hold of copiés of 1he first magic Jantern. They trav- eled far and wide through the coun- try, and they not only ‘scared the stories eyer produced in which ‘evin the most " sophisi’cata 1 audience is unable to prédict the ouccome of the dyam'a until the very finish of the pictute. “More thrills in tkis five-reeler than will be found in the average 16-epi- sode serial,” was the enthusiastic comment of one press critic after seeing the production at its initia. private showing in New Y city. And he added: “It had us sitting on the edge of our seat from start to finish, and try as we might, we were unable to. figure out the finish until the concluding scenes were flashed on the screen.” FINE VAUDEVILLE BILL AT REX THEATER TONIGHT One of the four attractions ap- dgain is Madame.
