One of the most picturesque feat- ures on today's big bill at the Breed is the famous story by the Kalem company photographed In two worlds and entitled, The Mayor from Ireland. Appearing in it are Jack Clark and Gens Gauntier, who have played the ieads in all the Irish-American films put out by the Kalem company, and this time they. are seen at thelr hum- ble little home in Ireland, when Brid- get hears of the success in America of one of her discarded lovers. This prompts her to induce her husband to try to make a new home for her in the lang of the free. Once here, they find it difficult to obtain ‘work, and as a last resource, her husband makes application. to his wife’s old fover, for a pesition. He only laughs at him, and turns him down, but a chance kindness to an old gentleman who was passing, resulted in Terry's securing employ- ment. Diligent application to his du- tles makes Terry get along well, and in a few years he is seen in a pros- perous condition, and another election finds him on the ticket, nominated for mavor, in opposition to Bridget's old flame. Terry wins, and the balance of the plcture shows how difficult it is for the sx-mayor to retire from office gracefully and leave it for his old rival to enjoy and prosper under. This pic- true will remain for Friday and Sat- urday only. Another big faworits, G. M.

MEYERS OBJECTED TO MISREPRESENTATION Rebuked His Associate for Printing Misleading Advertissments. New York, Dec. 2.—Letters alleged to have passed between A. L. Wisner and John J. Meyers, who are on trial !n the federal court charged with fraudulent use of the mails in the sale of mining stocks, were read in court today to show that Meyers objected to the advertising methods employed by Wisner. The letters concerned the promotion and sale of the stock of the Black Oak gold mine, “You say (In the advertisements) that it is absolutely certain that the Black Ore mine contains seven mil- lion tons of ore” one of the letters read, “and you should know that the figure is way out of proportion. Had vou said one million tons it would have Dbeen about correct.” In the same letter Meyers wrote: “l must tell you agaln that you must not misrepresent anything that I am connected with, as any proposi- tion I go into will always have enough merit to stand stand on its four feet.” A REAL ESTATE RING EXISTS IN ‘WASHINGTON, Charge Made in Letter by Fermer Postmaster General ‘Wynne.

War Department Has Not Enouch to Transport Troops. Washington, Dec. 26.—Major Ger al Leonard Wood, chief of staff, who has just been named as chief marshal of the approaching inaugural parade, has begun to outline his plans for a military, naval and civic demonstra- tion. General Wood's purpose is to muke the Wilson inaugural parade as well balanced as possible in the matter of the representation of the cavalry, in- fantry and artillery of the army, the bluejackets and marines of the navy and adequate and liberal representa- tion of the national guard and a well proportioned civic display. One of the features of the plan is to gather in Washington several thou- sand troops from the various army posts, probably as far west as Chicaco and south to Atlanta, as well as the entire cadet corps and midshipmen baitalion from their respective acade- mies. This will involve the r de- partment in considerable expense on account of transportation and as that particular appropriation has been greatly reduced owing to recent e tensive changes of station of office: and troops, it may be necessary to apply to congress immediately upon its reconvening next week for a deficiency appropriation. HANDLED HOLIDAY MAIL WITH FACILITY Normal Conditions in Post Office De- partment Christmas Night. t Washington, Dec. 26.—Although the liday mail is heavier in practically very section of the countrv than ever before, the work of handling it was performed with less congestion and confusion than in previous years, ac- cording to reports received today by Postmaster Genoral Hitcheock. A larger force than usual was put on this vear to handle the Christmas mail in order that the capacity of the service could be tested in anticipation of the establishment of the parcels post system which becomes operative throughout the service January 1. The reports made to Mr. Hitchcock showed that holiday mail was delivered early Christmas day and conditions were generally normal throughout the ser- Vice on Christmas ht. ho THE NEW HAMPSHIRE ,EN ROUTE TO NORFOLK Her Presence No Longer Necessary in Dominican Waters, ‘Washington, Dec. ~The battle- ship New Hampshire, which was hur- ried to Santo Domingo City when it appeared that the lately quelled revo- lution might break out anew. is now en routs to Norfolk, her presence in Dominfcan waters having had the ex- pected “moral effect.” Although no further trouble in Santo Domingo fs anticipated, it is probable that the cruiser Des Moines will leave New Orleans January 2 for Dominican wa- ters.
