It presents Secena Owen in the title role, she having the part of a dance hall favorite whose entire life and outlook is changed through her love for ayoung tenderfoot prospector. This part is played by Arnold Gray, anewcomer in the silent drama with bids fair to make his mark as a screen favorite. The companion movie attraction is “The Belle of Broadway,” pre- senting Betty Compson in a wealth of lavish costumes and in a part which gives her an excellent op- portunity for good acting. Her role is a dual one. THE NEW PALACE Home of Select Photoplays THURS—FRI— SAT. Another Show that is 1007 ENTERTAINMENT “FASCINATING YOUTH” with the Junior Paramount stars in a sparkling comedy.

Philadelphia, Nov. 10 (A—Maedical science, constantly at work in its battle against disease, has discover- ed and overpowered a large variety of germs, but ‘there yet remains an undiscovered, invisible world of dis- ease-producing organisms. Speaking before the autumn meet- ing of the National Academy of Science, Dr. Simon Flexner, director of the Rockefeller Institute of Medi- cal Research, described the attempts being made to discover and segregate germs that cause such diseases as sleeping sickness, infantile paralysis and the hoot and mouth disease in cattle, but sald little headway has been made. Sleeping sickness, he said, is not produced, as some European medi- cal sclentists have claimed, by the virus of “herpes” the technical name for cold sores. The disease, he added, has resuited in 75 per cent fatality of those afflicted in India, 25 per cent in Europe and has ap- proached epidemic form in this country with as high as 25 per cent tatalities, Dr. John C. Merriam, president of the Carnegie Institute of Wash- ington, told the academy' of the teeth and skull fragments of ‘a Pliocene bear in Oregon. The discov- ery, he sald, tends to increase the belief that North America and Asia were at one time a single continent. KALAT-ZAJKO.

Wil- son, democratic candidate for United States senator, in more than a score of the city's 1,500 precincts. Judge James Gay Gordon so as- serted in holding three election of- ficials of the 36th ward in $1,000 bail each for the grand jury. The return sheets on election night gave 295 votes to each of the repub- lican candidates, with zero marks be- hind the names of democratic and other candidates. The recount showed 283 votes for Vare, 289 for John 8. Fisher, republican guberna- torial candidate; five for Wilson and three for Judge Eugene C. Bonni- well, democratic candidate for gov- ernor. In holding the three officials, all negroes, Judge Gordon told them it was apparent that their return was “false,” and that they were “utterly indifferent” to the rights of the voters. Judge Gordon also ordered the ap- prehension of two other election of- ficers of the same division, one of them a woman, who failed to appear before the election court yesterday. Discrepancies were found in sev- eral of the other *zero” divisions. In one division the official count gave Wilson 35 votes, mlthough he had not been credited with a single bal- lot on the unofficial return sheet. This and other errors were ordered corrected. The official tabulation, which is being watched by the committee of seventy, was expected to be com- pleted today. The committee is a body of independent citizens organ- ized In the interest of clean elec- tions.

When he picked up the poor child, she was dead.” “Others about me wers dead, some others were badly injured, and many of them had their clothes.torn off their bodies.” Miss Mary Carpenter sat, erying, at her post in the telephone office. No rellet was possible—the tragedy had bereft her of her associate in | the exchange. Brave Phone Operator Immediately after the storm struck she set to work to get into com. munication with Washington and neighboring points. She succeeded and ambulances and medical as- sistance was dispatched immediate- ly from the capital. Most of the dangerously injured were tranafer- red to Washington hospitals wher: subsequently four of dren, died. Into the telephone exchange poured frantic calls for aid, appeals from parents as to the fate of their children, frantic inquiries from in side and outside the town concern- ing its occupants and the extent of | the tornado damage. Each name that passed over the wire meant death or injury to some friend or acqualintance of Miss Car- penter—she cried but she continued for long hours to plug through the calls. Town’s Center Untouched Into each home in the community the hand of tragedy reached and scattered death or injury to its oc- cupants or relatives or friends.

Two of the three children also were injured. Mrs. C. L. Tucker was blown from her yard and dropped to the ground by the storm. She was in. jured severely. Trousers Blown Off At Baden, two miles from Cedar- ville, R. F. Ward went to the back door of a store to watch the storm. The wind swept him away with the door. He was dropped, uninjured, but the wind took his trousers. Among the many stories of the tragedy told by relief workers one dealt with the family of Mr. and Mrs. Willie Bean. Utter poverty pre- | vented the family from purchasing | shoes for Alice, the six year old daughter and this kept her away | from the schoolroom, in which the disaster centered. No Funeral Funds But the same utter poverty, re- | lief workers pointed out, ralses the question as to where the family will ebtain money to bury Edward, the ten year old son who was blown | from the school room to his death, and how will the family care, they ask, for Theresa Estelle, aged nine, “Connecticut’s them, chil- | four square | who was so badly injured she may dis.

The deputy said the bill also was aimed at former Crown Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria. i TH!RBmmfiutm'va' There’s a restaurant you prefer.
