International News and Bus- ter Brown Comedy Added COMING THURSDAY That Mystery “The Gorilla” ||"|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||"||i Attractions At Theatres E3 THE BLUE DAN AT COLISEUM TONIGHT May Robson, last of famous stage stars to succumb to the lure of the kleigs, has an important role in “The Blue Danube,” Leatrice Joy's latest De Mille starring vehicle at the Coliseum tonight and Wednes- ! day. For twenty-two years Miss Rob- !’ son played under the banner of Charles Frohman and then organ- ized her own company with herself as the star and toured the country for over twenty years more. Miss Robson has appeered in “The King of Kings,” “Turkish De- light” and “The Rejuvenation of Aunt Mary,” the screen version of the famous stage play created by her and which she played for many years. “The Blue Danube,” an original story by John Farrow, depiets the peasant life of the picturesque folk and villages on the shores of the' Danube. Miss Robson is seen as the mother of the heroine. Nils Asther ‘portrays the leading male role opposite Leatrice Joy in this romance written by John Far- TOW. Joseph Schildkraut, Seena Owen, Albert Gran and Frank Reicher are seen in outstanding characterizations. - 8 s | MARIE PREVOST IN | COMEDY AT PALACE Marie Prevost scored another triumph in her latest Metropolitan star comedy, “The Night Bride,” at the Palace last night. If spon- taneous laughter and hearty ap- plause count for anything, the pro- duction was a delight to local fans, of whom there was a great outpour- ing at the premiere of the picture in- which Harrison Ford, Robert Edeson and Franklin Pangborn were featured. The story deals with a modern Yyoung ‘woman who has a mind of her own and who, when she sees the man she is about to marry kiss a bridesmaid, deserts her home and finds refuge in the house of Stanley Warrington, an author and pro- fessional hater of women. When she is discovered in the house and her father appears to claim her, inter- esting and laughablé complications ensue. The action is swift and punctuated liberally with laughs and the climax is both novel and amusing. All in all, “The Night Bride"” is decidedly well worth see- ing and it is a splendid antidote for the blues. - e, WANTED Second hand.cook stove for Boy Scout cabin. Must be six hole or larger.

LOUIS, May 28.—Heber Na- tions, former Missouri labor com- missioner, newspaper publisher and defendant in a bitterly fought six- year liquor prosecution, is to have another day—his third—in court. Twice convicted and senienced | as a beer grafter, Nations was saved | a second time from prison by the United States circuit court of ap- peals, which reversed his convic- tion. A third trial is imminent. The Nations case, which caused a political furor in Missouri, in- volved Mrs. Mabel Walker Wille- brandt, assistant attorney general and split Republican camps into factions, has been before the courts since 1923. Nations held that a Republican faction prosecuted him in order to strike at the administration of Gov. Arthur M. Hyde, now secretary of agriculture, Although prosecution as the re- ceiver of bribe . inoney from an il- licit beer industry in St. Louis, Na- tions had the support of Anti Sa- loon and W. C. T. U. campaigners, who regarded him as a martyr to prohibition enforcement. When he was indicted with Charles S. Prather then state food and drug commissioner, on a fed- eral conspiracy charge, Nations was publisher of a Jefferson City news- paper. He was lalor commission- er. Nations and Prather were accus- ed of collecting “protection money” from the Griesedieck brewery. Prather and R. B. Griesedieck pleaded guilty, and testified for the government. The brewer sald he had paid $10,000 for protection. Nations said he had sought to aid his brother, Gus Nations, then in charge of prohibition enforce- ment in the St. Louis district, and had attempted to trap the Griese- dieck brewery. He declared Gus was being assailed by political ene- mies, including fellow dry agents. Heber further claimed that an ef- fort was being made to put the Hyde administration in disrepute on the eve of a party convention. Mrs. Willebrandt jumped from Washington to prosecute Nations. She assailed the dry crusaders for their activities in behalf of Na tions. First convicted in May, 1925, be- fore Judge Charles B. Faris, Na- tions was sentenced to 18 months’ imprisonment and fined $3,333. The appeals court reversed it on the grounds that Faris should have disqualified himself when asked to do so. The second conviction, in Janu- ary, 1928, was before Judge Charles Davis. Nations again was given 18 months, with a fine of $2,000. The gecond reversal was on the ground that the district attorney had made a prejudicial statement in his argu- ment to the jury. Prather and Griesedieck never have been sentenced. e MRS.
