Frank Tomlin of Dan- ielson lost eight dollars, and Charles Mitchell of New Haven lost three dol- lars. Both boys had saved enough to go home for the Fourth, but the thief who stole the money, made it impossible for them to carry out their plans.

The speeding up ‘of war industires has been phenomenal. In no branch of war production more than in ma- chine guns is this true. Before the war production of machine guns in the United States did not exceed five per month. It is now between 1,000 and 1,300 per day, and this is only| a beginning. One of the principal American producers is the Marlin- Rockwell corporation which has one of its factories in this ¢ity. In 1915 this company, then the Marlin Arms Co first attracted public attention to it. self. when it- undertook to manufac- ture under license 12000 Coit's ma- chine guns for the British govern- nent. To finance th's order the com- pany sold $3,500,000 7 per cent. prefer- red stock, agreeing to retire it at par and accrued dividends in three ap- proximately equal instaliments on December 1, 1916, and March 1 anl June 1, 1917. €o successful was the company with this contract, although other prominent manufacturers were victims of costly miscalculations on their war business, that it was able to vetire all of. the preferred stock The Marlin business dates back to 1882. A long and homorable career is at times an asset, but an old ship is ‘apt to barnacled. Hence, Mar- lin-Roekyrell's affairs are now being directed by a new and aggressive management. The company is pro- dueing 500 machine guns a day. or n:uly balf of Uncle Bam’s total su Dy afreraft guns and 150 light Brown- ings. Manufacturers of the heavy Browning has hegun, but deliveri will not be made until the first of Augusi, at which time the company will concentrate on the two Brown- ing tvpes and diecontinue the man- ufacture of the Marlin weapon. Marlin-Rockweil has on its books orders for 130,000 machine guns val- ued at about $31,000,000. Th's is an average of 3238 per gun, but in cludes a liberal supply of snare parts. And Jeast any suggestion of vrofiteer- ing be conveyed in lnese figures it should be stated that the ecompany's original contract for Colt's guns for a_ foreign government was taxen at $1,000 per zun: moreover, one of Mar- lin's recent contracts to cupply our own government with lizht Brown- ings was taken at the unprecedent- edly low figure, but still a fizure admitting of a fa'r profit, of $100 a gun.

The feature attraction being Lina Cavalieri in a Paramount play, Love's Conquest. Splendidly directed by Edward Jose, from a_scenario prepared by Charles E. Whittaker, Mme. Cavalieri portrays a role of great power—that of Gis- monda, an Athenian duchess, a beau- tiful widow, who is wooed in vain by many noblemen, who seek to possess themselves of both her riches and jewels. In the portrayal of this role Mme. Cavalieri wears her famous jew- els, which long have been a source of amazement and delight to operatic de- votees. Mme.
