C., MONDAY, FEBR NO ONE OWNS MARYLAND FARM SINCE DRY AGENTS RAIDED IT Special Dispateh to The Star. BALTIMORE, February 20.— Down in the lower reaches of St. Marys county, Md., is a good farm of sev- eral hundred acres, partly- stocked, which hus gone a-begging for a claimant these last two weeks. Its owner. if owner the land ever had, has faded into oblivion. Sad come the tidings from the peaceful little county that there will be no corn vield on the tract this summer unless the situation takes an unexpected change in the next few weeks. As far as state and federal officials have been able to learn there is no murder mystery about this strange disappearance. The owner might more easily have evaporated, a8 far as clues are concerned. 500-Gallon Still. It seems that two weeks ago pro- hibition agents swept down upon the little farm and seized what is be- lieved to have been the biggest moon- | shine still ever set up in this section of the county. The still had a ca- pacity of 500 gallons. There were great quantities of mash and four negroes, typically southern, were { found engaged in turning out enoukh { “cawn” liquor to warm the hearts of many Baltimoreans, Washingtonians land Philadelphi.ns. The busy nesroes had a boss. they admitted, but they did not know his name. They knew not of his wher abouts. He just came and went on pay day like a will o' the wisp. The prohibition agents were armed with a search warrant. and they ap- proached a_house nearby where lived Ignatius Warthen. In the Warthen home they found three gallons of whisky. Warthen admitted that the liquor was his property, but the farm—oh, no: it belonged not to him. He didn't know who owned the farm a few steps away from his home. It was not on his land. He repeated the same story to Judge Rose in the United States court when he was fined for the illegal possession of the three gallons of “cawn.”* Meanwhile the negroes and the big ALLIED PROPOSALS ' MADE T0 MOSCOW iSoviet Agents Get Trade Plans From France, Eng- land and Germany.

MOSCOW, January — Enver Pasha, who was Turkish minister of war during the world conflict, and | eho! bas just b arrested by the soviet authorities in the Caucasus, was believed here to have been on jthe best of terms with Mustapha Kema) Pasha, leader of the Turkish nationalists in_ Anatolia. Reports that he would be sent to Angora to be tried by the Turkish nationalist government for high treason add only another surprising chapter to the amazing career of this Turkish ad- venturer. Enver Pasha was sentenced to death by a Turkish court-martial, after the war, for plunging Turkey into the great struggle. He escaped and for a long time has been head of a mis- sion stationed In Moscow. It was understood here that he had obtained material help from Russia for the Turkish nationalists headed by Kemal and that he would remain in Kemal's good graces so long as he kept away from Anatolia. Enver has made frequent trips from Moscow to the Caycasus and other regions nearby, where his movements have been unknown. One of the latest reports was that he was or- ganizing bolshevist occupation in the Caucasus, and that an army was be< ing organized there, with the support of the bol$heviki, for the purpose ot marching into Anatolia. * ¥ The Russian soviet government re cently cut off the food supplies, house and plenty of soviet rubles which it had' generously’ donated to Enver Pasha’s mission during the past year. $100,000 FIRE IN AUTO PLANT.

By the Associated Pres RALEIGH, N. C, February 20.— “People in some sections of the coun- try do not seem to understand that so-called lynchings in the south are nothing more than the killing of a criminal by the friends and frequent- {1y outraged relatives of the victim 'of the prisoner’s crime,” declared Gov. Cameron Morrison in statement following the publication |of Associated Press dispatches an- i rouncing that Judge Snyder of Ham- ilton, Ont., had refused to grant ex- tradition for Matthew Bullock, negro wanted in North Carolina for attempt to murder Rabey Taylor and for in- citing to riot at N of last year. i The governor expressed confidence {that the matter of Bullock's extradi- tion from Canada would be handled by the State Department in Wash- ington “with high, respec th state of North Carolina. )it is understood, is stil in custod.

Grace Cameron, the well known Dolly Dimples Girl,” received enthu- slastic reception at the Strand Theater yesterday, and was forced to answer several curtain calls for characteriza- tions of prominent opera artists. Miss Cameron has a well rounded voice. In responding to a curtain call she ex- pressed the hope of coming again to Washington. While the “Dolly Dimples Girl" was rated as the headliner, at least two other acts lean toward stellar ranking— atchelor, Vert and Kramer, in a musi- cal farce, “Let's Go,” which centers around a railroad scene, and M. Golden's offering, “A Spanish Gypsy Revue.” | The latter was graced with clever Span- {ish and gypsy dancing. Al Libby, ec- centric cyclist, performed sensational feats on his “‘wheel.” offer “A Musical Serenade,” with popu- lar and classical selections on clarinet and accordion. Shirley Mason, sister of Viola Dana, {is the star in the photoplay, “Little Miss Smiles,” the story of a_tenement hero- ine forced to buck against the dangers of the New York underworld, who is rescued from a gamg of desperadoes by a wayward brother. A comedy and news pictures-also are shown.

Miss Viola Dana is the particularly winsome, bright and scintillating star who attracted capacity.crowds to the Palace Theater yesterday afternoon, and in spite of her diminutive stature, she was the “whole show,” to use a popular expression. First she ap- peared in her latest film “The Four- ajteenth Lover,” then in excerpts from past and coming productions. and finally in person to chat with the audience. Of course, she quite charmed every- one with her half-bashful manner and amusing little ancedotes of studio some of which were in BEEF STEW WithVegetables will tempt the most jaded appetite when cooked with a rich brown gravy and then seasoned with a dash of Lea & Perrins’ Sauce.

The funniest incidents in comedies are often quite unintentional, Miss Dana said, as for instarce her pud- ding mixing In “The Fourteenth Lover.” The director told her to put some of each material on the table in the bowl, which included milk, egESs, molass vanilla and a lot of powder from a red can. Knowing nothing about cooking, or “anything like that,” she didn't realize it was baking powder, and when the mixture began to rise rapidly she “thought it was going to explode or something.” The woe-begone, half-scared expres- sion of the experimental cook's face, and the seething mass in the bowl undoubtedly made one of the most laughable pictures In the photoplay.

The film story is both interesting and amusing, for it concerns a mil- lionair's daughter who plays “eeny, meeny, miny, mo” with a rogues’ gal- lery of admirers, and then decides upon a gardener as the object of her affactions. Her pursuit of this re- luctant young man, who wants a wife that can cook and sew rather than a soclety doll, furnishes the theme. The various obstacles im- posed in her way caused the spec- tators to agree with Miss Dana when she afterward said: “Wouldn't it be terrible if all men were as hard to get as that one!" The usual Supplementary features completed the program. D. E. RIALTO—"“The Law and the Woman.” A melodrama of thrills is shown this week at the Rialto in “The Law and the Woman" It is a screen adaptation of Clyde Fitch’s play, “The ‘Woman in the Case,” which was a melodramatic success a score of years ago. While the original play was cunningly and deftly woven together, its transition to the screen has been made with more elaborate scenic dis- plays.

Her work is good, especially where she assumes the part of a woman of the under- world to gain information that will 82ve her husband from the electric chair. Some, perhaps, wiil believe Miss Compson’s work in this picture outshines her big effort in “The ‘Miracle Man" and stamps her as an actress of ability.
