? WEDNESDAY, APRIL 14, 1920 Good Roads Film to be Shown at the Orpheum Thursday To arouse public interest ‘in, the good roads movement in this coun- try is the,purpose of the showing of “The Open Road to a Greater Amer- ica” in this city and others, under the auspices. of civic afd other. public or. ganizations. It-will be seen at the Orpheum theatre Thursday night. “The Open Road” is the first motion picture argument for the greater \de- velopment of national and state high- ways, and comes here with the official sanction and approval of every secre- tarv of jthe.state in the Unite States, and the highway transport committee of the*council for national defense. “The scenes from which this picture was, made were taken in all sections of this country and in foreign coun: tries. It shows clearly, how , good roads are made, and how roads may be built which will stand the ravages of time-and traffic for generations to come... It contrasts vividly and with much’ detriment to the latter, the ereat highways of France and Italy with, what America has come to know ag improved pighways. It calls thé attention of the spec- tator.to the fact.that in America there sare: 2,000,000 miles of roads, of which ‘only one per cent, or 20,000 miles are “improved.” 1 Meta Sie Se :Genuine Fox Hunt , Shown in Picture A genuine fox hunt is shown in the First National picture, “In Old Ken tucky,” featuring Anita Stewart and which wil be shown at the Eltinge Theatre on ‘Friday. The hunters, both men and women, come out in answer to the horn, clad in gay garments, mounted on horses accustomed td cross country runs, A great pack of dogs arg let loose and quickly pick up the scent of the fox. Then the chase is on, the dogs rac- ing madly acrops ‘hill:and dale, through ‘hecizes, oven fences and acro3s streams, the hunters following: close behind. The trained’, horses take hedge and fence without difficulty, many of the leaps being several feet high, the women as well as the men, negotiating the high and broad jumps with ease. This is one. of the interesting fea-|_ tures in the picture, which is the story of a mountain girl. who falls in love with a wealthy young clubman of the city, who is hunting near her home, and of the trilling adventures through Vanderbilt and Girl He's To Marry Cornelius Vanderbilt, Jr., shown here with his bride-to-be. Miss Rach- ael Littleton, sister of Martin W. Lit- tleton, famous attorney, will be mar- ried in New York April 29.

Nielsen’s Millinery and Exclusive Waist Shop 420 Broadway | g| ed at 9:45 p. m. The government charged that Ben- tall made a speech at Hutchinson, Minn., in 1917 “attempting to’ incite drafted and enlisted men to insubor- dination” during’ the war. He was convicted on two or three counts in the indictment. in April,. 1918, . and sentenced by “Judge Morris. to ‘five years in the federal penitentiary at Leavenworth... This conviction, how- ever, was reversed by ‘the United States circuit court of appeals which ruled that Judge Morris erred in his instructions. to the jury,-and a retrial was ordered. ~ In the present case, Judge Morris charged’ the jury ina detailed’ state- ment, he explained in detail the first and third counts of the original in- dictment of which the jury in .the previous case found Bentall guilty. The second count on which the’ pre: vious jury -acquitted the defendant, Judgé Morris instructed the jury to disregard. Previous to his own charge, he read to the jury an extended state- ment covering points of Taw in the case which he said had been handed him by Seymour Stedman,’ counsel for the defense. The central point of Judge Morris’ charge, to which Steadman ‘took ex- ception, was concerned with the dis- tinction between service in this coun- try and‘that overseas. Bentall told | members of his audience at Hutchin- son in 1917 to report for duty in this country, but not, to go overseas if they | were ordered, as the act was uncon- stitutional, government's witnesses asserted. “There has been a lot of talk here about distinction between service in this country and-that, overseas by the ‘learned lawyers’ for the defendant,” | said Judge Morris. “The whole thing | seems mere talk to me, whatever the | lawyers may,say. A man put into the service cf the United States must go to wherever he is called to go while this country is in a state of war.” Five exceptions to Judge: Morris’ charge were taken by Mr. Stedman One exception taken in the original trial before Judge Morris was sustain- ed by the circuit court of appeals at St. Louis as sufficient grounds for the present trial. ° = z > MARKETS | 5 —> CHICAGO LIVESTOCK Cattle,~4.000; beef; butcher cattle, 25c to .50c. higher; top yearlings, $16; best medium and heavy weight steers, | $15.75 to $15.85; bulk, $13.50 to $15.50; few choice cows, $12.25; bulk, $9.50 to $11; canners, firm, bulk, $5 to $5.50; bulls. and feeders, nominal; calves, steady to 50c higher; bulk, around $24. - Hog receipts. 6,000; 25 cents high- er; top, $15.90; bulk, $15 to $15.75; good strong weight pigs, around $14.50.

Some of the seed is in good condition, but a considerable | quantity of oats, brought from the northern country will be fit only for seed, in the opinion of George Hill, | Dominion government inspector. Mr. Hill said the grain which is not fit for seed will find a welcome among farmers of this section as feed during the early spring weeks. The bulk of the Peace River coun- try crop is still in the north and grain men expect that heavy shipments will soon arrive. f Reports received here are to the ef- fect that large numbers of immigrants are heading for the Peace River country this year, among them many| returned soldiers. | j | CANNON BALL FOUND IN LOG Vancouver, B. C.. April 14.—An old | fashioned cannon ball, of the 25 Ib.| variety, used many years ago on this coast by the admiralty ships, caused the False Creek, Lumber company a loss of $250 recently. It was embed- ded in the centre of a huge log cut at Duncan Bay. The tree had - grown around the ball and concealed it so well that i was not discovered until the saw struck it. The missile must have been discharged many years ago by a passing warship. i “AT THE MOVIES | ‘oe A whole narrative of romance is j suggested by a mere scene or two in ithe introductory phases of Vitagraph’s/ ; Dicture, “The Winchester Woman,” which will be shown at the Qrpheum theater tonight and tomorrow. Alice Joyce is tht star. The picture is derived from the magazine story by Charles Stokes Wayne, It was adapi- ed for the screen by Arthur Edwin hrows. As the story opens, Miss Joyce, play- ing the role of Agatha Winchester, is seen emerging from a trial and acquit- tal as the slayer of her husband in Nashville, Tenn. ‘She is compelled to change her name and start life again amid distant and new surroundings. This unfolds the main story, which concludes with a remarkable climax.
