SMALL VALUE NOW IN LIQUOR LICENSES New Haven Bankruptcy Referee Finds Them Comparaticely Worthless. Liquor licenses, once greatly in de- mand and rated’ at a substangial fizure ip private sale or on the open market. have but little value now. as an asset, and are practically a drug on the market, according to developments in New Haven at hearings before Referee in Bankruptey C. E. Hoadley. This information materialized when an attempt was made to fix values of licénses comprising part of the assets listed in the estate of bankruptcy sa- loon proprietors. According to the re- port of trustees, the licenses which only a year ago were in much de- mand and commanded anywhere from $1,000-to $2.000, going as high as $3,- 000 in the sections where saloons were scarce are now practically worthless with no buyers. Martin Peterson, saloonkeeper of 23 Court street, New Haven. turned over his license as one of the most valuable assets when he went into everything you want in a cigarette. ?

The beauty and talent of Elsie Fer- guson evidenced themselves most agreeably in her newest Artcraft pho- toplay, The Danger Mark, which was presented for the first time in this city at the Davis theatre, with highly gratifyinz resuits, vesterd The in- terest of the story. which deals Wl[_h the craving for drink inherited society woman from her ha«PrlvdJ grandfather, and which was written by Robert W. Chambers, author of many ‘“best sellers,” impreseed itself upon the aud.ence in no uncertain form, as was proved by the applause that greeted beth t icture and star. Th!‘ fidelity of this picturization of Mr. Chambers' famous story is evident to all who have read the novel. As Geraldine Seagrave, the young society woman and heiress. who struggles des- perately to vanquish the drink demon that lurke in her physical makeup, Miss Ferguson presents a portrayal of rare artistic force and one that will rank hizh in her gallery of screen portraits Miss Ferguson is essential- ly an emotional actress of such power as to entitle her to the distinction of being perhape the foremost artist in this particular field in the country. Her portrayal was in every respect the most artistic of her screen career. The other pictures were Madame Sphinx, a clever French detective story, with Alma Rubens in the ledad- ing role, and the Official War Review, showing officiai pictures made by the United States, British, French and Italian governments.
