I'm going to teach her while I'm teaching him."” “That will be fine, Ephraim!” Mrs. Bear exclaimed “I'm glad to see that you are taking such an interest in our youngsters at last. It has seemed to me that you left me to do everything for them. But 1 see that T have been mistaken. No doubt you have meant to do your share in bringing them up. Frob- ably you didn't realize that they were old enough to begin to be taught woodcraft” “That's it,” said Mr. Bear. “That's exactly it. Today I intend to give them a lesson in rabbit hunting."

PEACE IN EAST IS PRACTIGALLY SURE Treaty With Turks to Be Signed, Probably Next Week Lausanne, July 17—Approval is ex- pected to be given tomorrow to the agreement reached last night by the allies and the Turks and within a week the delegates are expected to sign a traty of peace ending the Near East conference. The accord represents a victory for the United States whose representa- tive, Joseph C. Grew, was successful in his insistence thht the policy of the open door and equal opportunity in the Near East be adopted, Through conferences with Ismet Pasha, head of the Turkish delega- tion, Mr. Grew won him over against the pleas of the British and French plenipotentiaries, The inside story of the meeting vesterday was one of a flerce battle waged over the question of the ofl flelds in Mesopotamia which the Eng- lish claim under the provisions of the concessions of the Turkish Petroleum company Though none of the American dele- gation was present it was apparent that American influence was domi- nant. Ismet Pasha was unshakable, One by one he turned down every formula | which he calculated would give any | confirmation to the British company's | petroleum concession in the treaty. The allied agreement to drop their demands for future preferential right to Turkish contracts is considered here an attempt to make the Amer- fcan public feel that Europe respects American doctrine and wishes to co- operate with American capital there. The allies agreed, pending the es- | tablishment of a permanent regime not to insist upon keeping two war- ships each in the straits, The treaty will be signed July or 25, it is expected.

(By The Herald Reviewer). If there are parts that stand out above others as difficult ones to por- tray without over-doing them, in farce or comedy drama, they are those of a ‘“boob” character and a drunk, yet the Poli Players at the Palace in Hartford this week handle i these difficult parts in a way that is excruciatingly funny, yet never over- done. IFrank McHugh, the popular juvenile, carries off the honors as Jack Reynolds, a youthful son of the idle rich who always has a little jag on. He plays his part most con- vinecingly and gets the most out of every comedy line without going a bit too far. Victoria Montgomery, as Aunt Mathilda, very prim and proper but who is induced to take a little drink and thereby gets a “little bun on” handles her part with delicate humor and acts with skill. The “boob' part is played by I‘rances Williams who is Lily, a hotel maid, certainly looks the part of ™nobody home"” and succeeds in acting it, to the amusement of the audience. Without these three characters the play, “The Unkissed Bride,” would | fall flat. With them, it 4s a scream- ing farce that can be recommended to any wbo seek light but entertain- ing amusement. The story concerns one KFred IFor- rest, a young speculator, played by Arthur Howard, who goes broke just as he is about to wed. In order to make his uncle, played by Harold Kennedy, believe that he is married and entitled to a $100,000 check promised as a wedding present, he induces a pretty young stenographer to pose as his fiancee and go through a fake wedding ceremony. Of course his pal, Jack Reynolds, gets drunk and mixes things up to such an ex- tent that instead of a fake minister he sends & real one and the couple actually are married, though they do not find it out until they come to the | conclusion that they really were made | for each other. The intermediate scenes are a riot of fun and the repartee is a scream, while the antics of the actors and actresses, especially in the very proper bedroom scene, are certainly laugh provoking. As the little stenographer, Mary Ann lJenL-‘ ler is certainly charming and as a calculating vampire, Ruth Thomas, the pretty little blonde member of the cast who this week appears as a bru- | nette, is all to the good. Edwin Vall, | the director, has a minor role of Ihe\ clergyman and Jay Ray is a police| office who eveatually wins the "un- i none other than the boob maid, Lily. William Blake, the company's| “heavy,’ has a small part but does| it in his usual finished way. All in all, the show this week is one of the best summer plays yet presented, light enough not to strain the mind | and funny enough o amuse. It| should prove a good drawing card.| Next week the company presents “The Girl in the Limousine,” From 1"35 to 1831, !he White Tower in the Tower of London con- tzined a menagerie.

PALACE THEATER. Mary Miles Minter's. latest Para- mount plcture, “The Trail of the Lonesome Pine,” was glven its open- ing showings at the Palace theater last. evening. The picture {s clean, wholesome entertainment from start to finish. The story is laid in the Kentucky and Tennessee mountains and deals with a family feud, The hit of the vaudeville show 1s Montana, attired in a pure white cow- boy rig, and he ofers banjo playing the like of which has never been heard here before. Darling and West were well received yesterday with their comedy talk and songs; Saxon and Griffin gathered many laughs and plenty of applause with their excellent singing and comedy skit, and Morrell's Dogs show re- markable training and intelligence, | The Pathe News shows some great scenes of the Dempsey-Gibbons match at Shelby. “DAUGHTERS O} RICH,” LYCEUM “Daughters of the Rich,” mnow showing at the Lyceum theater, is one of the most lavishly staged flm dramas ever brought to this city and as a drama it even surpasses “Rich Men's Wives,” and “Poor Men's Wives,” to both of which it is a sequel, The story is replete with melodramatic action of the higher Intriguing characters lead to Russia, Trance and the Orient, pro- viding scenes of unusual beauty, gor- geous costuming and @hrilling action. Not only is this picture filled with ac~ tion, but also its human appeal offers to all classes a high grade entertain- ment. For the first three days of next week “Mary of the Movies" s to be shown. This is a startling and realis- tic expose of life at Hollywood, the motion picture center of the world and in various parts more than 40 stars of filmdom take part. The plot revolves around Mary, the little country gril, who goes to Hollywood to seek fame and fortune*in the mov- ies. How she succeeds, after many trials, tribulations and temptations, and what she finds at the end of her rainbow makes a charming’story.
