i l i I V:llll Vi “The Man Who Came Back’ at Palace Notable as a book and décidedly a success on the stage, “The Man Who Came Back” is greater as a motipn picture, This Iox production came to the Palace theater last night to open a 4 days run, A capacity audi- ence appeared to enjoy every minute of it and lobby comment. afterward was limited to praise. It is doubtful if George O'Brien or Dorothy Mackail will ever be cast in parts more peculiarly fitted to thelr respective ability, As the black- sheep son of a rich New Yorker, O'Brien plays one of the most effec- tive characterizations ever shown on a screen, Dorothy Mackail does no less as the dance hall performer of San I'rangisco's old Barbary Coast and later, in the underworld of Shanghal. In addition.there are four Keith vaudeville acts headed by the Dixon Girls Revue, five clever misses who are talented musicians, Other acts include Jackson and Baker, a come- dy couple; Arthur Finn a corking good blackface eomedian; Gulfport and Brown in a variety offering; and the Patricks who offer a novelty act. Beginning next Sunday “Charley’s Aunt™ will be the big attraction. “Janice Mecredith” at Capitol. “Janice Meredith,” which came to | the Capitol theater yesterday for 4 days, has so much beauty and ro- mance in it, and so much glory and amazing land-that-never-was charm in it, ‘that even a hardened reviewer is overcome by the sheer magnifi- cence of this picture, No one who, secretly, would like to take a trip to the moon, or who, much more to the point, would like to have the Revolutionary War done over again for his own delectation the war belng just a multicolored background for a heart-stirring love vr between the most beautiful girl in the world and a man whom | she, at least, didn't think was the homeliest of his gender—ecan afford not to see *“Janice Meredith,” and Marion Davies, who is the astonish- ingly beautiful star of it.

Rin Tin Tin, famous police dog actor has a gerat part in “The Light- house by the Sea,” now showing at the Lyceum; but the picture does not rely on this performer for its merit. It is a great production in which there is action from start to finish. Louise Fazenda, comedy queen, has the leading role and Willie Collier, Jr., also has a big part. The role of the blind lighthouse keeper is taken by Charles Mailes. Thursday present another double feature production in addition to the regular attractions. Wesley (I"reckles) Barry makes his debut as a juvenile leading man in “George Washington, Jr.,” the screen version of the famous comedy drama by George M. Cohan and Sinclair Lewis' story, “Babbitt,” done into a movie. Willard Louis has the role of Bah- bitt. This Lewis story is a story of real life and Babbitt is a hustling real estate broker in Zenith, Ohio. Others in the cast include Carmel Meye: Mary Alden, Raymond Me- Kee, v Fitzgerald * and Maxine Ellott Hicks. | Among pictures hooked for early |showing at the Lyceum are “Un- |wanted,” “Broken Barrlers” and “Over the Top with the Allies,” the last named being a picture run in (o {connection with American Legion work. | HEIR TO §5,000 Dridgeport, Ieb.

The yacht is already being placed in readiness at Portsmouth for the voyage the date of which is yet to be decifed but which it is ex- peeted will be very soon, Queen Mary will probably not ac- company the king on the yacht as she is a bad sailor and dislikes being at sea cxcept in fine weather, It is expected she will cross the channel to Calais and journey southward by in to join her husband, The king's uncle the Duke of Connaught, who always spends the winter on the Riviera is staying at his villa near Beaulieu and it is possible that | the queen will make her home there { while the King is recuperating. It is assumed that the king will be kept as free as possible from af- fairs of state while on fis voyage and in this respect it will be his first real holiday since acceding to the throne as during his annual visits to Cowes, for the yachting and to Scotland and Sandringham for the shooting he is always in close touch with his ministers and spends a good part of each day in transacting state business. The present supposition 1is that the Prince of Wales will carry out his tour of South Africa and South America as scheduled but it is al- ready being remarked that it is quite unusual for the king and the heir to the throne both to be ab- sent from the kingdom at the same | time. There scems to be, however no constitutional reason against such an arrangement, In this case it is presumable that the royal duties will devolve upon the Kking's third son, Prince Henry, as the Duke of York is hunting in Africa, The king's physicians remained with him only a minutes this morning and it was decided not to issue the regular morning bulletin outlining his condition. It is under- stood that his temperature is almost normal. ;Trenton Man Is Shot by Unidentified Gunmen Trenton, N.

It was an increase of 319 over January, 1923, indicating that accidents are occurring this year at a rate of about ten a day in ex- cess of the daily average for the corresponding perfod of last winter. It is pointed out, however, that the number of motor vehicles, exclusive of motorcycles and jitneys, register- ed and in use in the state during the first month of 1925 was 20,550 in ex- cess of the total for January, 1923, the whole number of such registra- tions appearing on the books of the department on the first day of the present month being 127,988, as against 107,438 shown to have been registered on that date of last year. An idea of the rapidity with which the ownership of automobiles is ex- tending in Connecticut may be gained from the fact that more mo- tor vehicles were registered in this state in the single month of Janu- ary, 1925, than were registered in an entire year only five years ago. The figures given in the second para- graph apply only to passenger cars and commercial motor vehicles, Tak- ing in all classes, the total of regis- trations for the month amounts to 132,517, whereas the total for the year 1920 was 131,775, The depart- ment registered more cars for 1925 in one week than were registered in a whole year 10 years ago. Fifteen fatal motor vehicle acci- dents occurred in January, 1925, an increas: of two over the fatal acci- dent record for January, 1924, Wa- terbury is the only municipality which reported more than one, the number of fatal accidents occurring in that city during the first month being three. West Willington, Weth- ersfield, West Hartford, Torrington, West Thompson, South Norwalk, North Canaan Moosup, Lebanon, Hartford, Windsor and New DBritatn reported one each. YICTINS OF VENGEANCE.

Boot- leg channels were being explored to- day by the police in an effort to learn the identity of a gang of | moonshiners who fut to death a pa- trolman and a former police officer, turned “hijackers.” The victims, Burt G. Lovejoy and corge Peters, were Kkilled late last Tuesday, it is belicved. Their bodies were uncovered yes- | terday in a cave from which the are known to have removed more than 200 gallons of moonshine whiskey last Sunday. Indications were that Lovejoy and | Peters were shot, beaten and their |throats cut. Scientists Devise \\ ay To Prevent “Hang-Over” New Yo tists experimenting with the admin- istration of oxygen and dioxide have reported that they have specdily resuscitated a patient un- conscious from alcohol and prevented nausea, or ‘hang-over,” and other symptoms of Intoxication, it is announced by the New York Edison company. Drs. . Hunter and S. G. Mudd of Boston reported that experimenting upon a man who \ had been arrested for alcoholism | i and who had passed into a deep| coma, they were able by admi ing carbon dioxide to sober him within an hour without after- math of nausea. New York scien- tists have used the carbon dioxide and oxygen combination in saving the lives of asphyxiated persons cording to Dr. Charles Norri 5 lief medical examiner, but have not yet introduced it as a treatment for al- coholism. It has also been found val- wable in asing respiration in operation of patients and enabling them to get rid of the ether in their lungs and blood, he said Protest Qutfitting U. S.

It had been the an- nounced intention of the sccretary to await conclusion of the commit- tee hearings before reaching the de- | cision which will either continue General Mitchell in the position of assistant air chiéf or mean his as- sgnment to other duty with a re- turn to the rank of colonel. Whether the sudden breaking off of the committee hearings, after further witnesses had been sum- moned, might lead the secretary to advance his decision to a date be- fore the March 4 adjurnment of con- gress or defer it until after that, as had previously been expected, has not heen disclosed. The secretary himself has given no indication as to how he views the question of General Mitchell's re- appointment, Those close to the secretary, however, predict the ap- pointment of assistant air chief will fall on another. In any event, it was said, the mat- ter was viewed as one purely for exccutive determination and in which any recommendation the com- mittee may submit as a result of its inquiry could have no influence. The house committce is winding up its investigation, faces the task of drawing from a mass of testi- mony extending over weeks the con- clusions it will presont to the house. NORTH AMERICAN MASTODONS FOUND Skeletons Are Unearthed in Genral America Chicago, Feb. 23.—Skeletons of North American mastodons, llams as big as camels, saber-tooth tigers, mammoth bears, wolves and species of the northern horse family have been unearthed in Ceniral America among fossilized remains of the South American glyptodons and huge ground sloths, 8. C. Davies, di- rector of the field museum, has an- nounced here. The discoveries were made by a Captain Marshall ficld expedition, led by Professor Elmer S. Riggs, and they lead the fossil experts to visual- ize an inter-continental battleficld of millions of years ago, where op- posing migraticns of mammoth ani- mals from North and South America | fought and exterminated one anoth- er. The scene of the visualized pre historic clash when the world was voung was giveh by Professor Rigas as the Tarija Valley near Tupica in the Bolivian province of Tariha. The expedition's discovery is the climax of three years’ work in Bo- livia and Argentina. Professor Riggs theory is that in the age un- der investigation Patagonia in the Argentina was all there was of South America, and the two continents, North and South Amer were separated. During this period a Patagonian plant and animal life developed. Later an uprising of land bridged the gap and huge animals of the two confinents met and fought. Professor Riggs is now on his way to Chicago for a rest, dur- ing which he will arrange the fos- |sils he has sent to the museum |Paralysis of Ins;ne | Yielding to Treatment New York, Ieb. 23.—Paresis, or general ' para of the insan | hitherto regar as uncurable, has |been treated successful at the |Manhattan State Hospital for the linsana on Ward's Island by inocu- [1ating with malaria ge it has been announced by I Henry A.
