CALLED ON THE JOURNAL.
From Satcrday s I'aily.
Ti. C. Uybee of Denver, dropped
in on this oflice for a short time to
day, and made -himself known,
and then we remembered that he
had been the chief of police at Mem
phis. Mo., some twenty years since,
where the editor was engaged in the
publishing business, and were very
good friends. We were very glad
to have him call on us and were
pleased to recall the incidents which
happened when we lived in the same
town years ago.
MEMBERS OF THE
SENATE ARE HEAR
ING FROM HO,',
THERE IS A MARKED CHANGE IN
ATTITUDE OF NATION'S
LEAGUE.
Sentiment of People Strongly in Fa
vor of Draft if Amendments Sug
gested by Mr. Taft Be
Adopted at Paris.
Washington. March 27. Observ
ers of the lea cue of nations propa
ganda in the United States have
been struck recently by the com
parative lull in the efforts of the
opposition to the proposed league
constitution. The much advcrti-ed
efforts of certain senators to oppose
the lea'gue lave not developed to
the extent expected, and members of
the senate who are now retnrmutr
to Washington after a visit home
are talkinir in a very different tune
from that of two weeks apu. Mem
bers of onuress a-ssert that if the
president succeeds in having adopt
ed amendments to the lea true consti
tution that will he reasonably ac
ceptable to its constructive critic.,
who favor further safeguards alon
the line sim nested by Mr. Taft. not
more than three- of the thirty-nine
republican senators who sinned the
'round robin" in the closing days of
the lnt session, stating their inten
tion to vote airainst the doeum i:t
unless these chaimes were ma ;e. will
tie found utraiust t!i" ratification of
the legislation when it comes up in
the senate.
In fact, some of the mot out
spoken oponents of the lensue arr
now hearing from lioiu in such
strenuous tones that they are be
irinnir. to doubt the wisdom of the
course they have pursued.
There no longer :;ecrns to b" atiy
doubt that the league legislation
will te ratified by a heavy vote in
the senate utiles the hnul draft of
the document reveals some funda
mental blunder in the amendments
relative to sections vital to the
United States or unless the president
wholly disregards the suirrres: ion ai d
make.s no amendments at ail, which
m believed hi.irhlv doubtful.

DESIRE TO HAVE
LUXURY CAUSES A
WIFE'S DOWNFALL
FLORENCE REED IN "TODAY" IS
COSTING TO PARMELE TUES
DAY AND WEDNESDAY
A Erana Filled With Splendid Types
and Played Convincingly A
Happy Eliding Though
Announcement of the coming of
the photoplay "Today" as the next
big super-production to be shown at
the Parmele theatre on Tuesday and
Wednesday. April 1 and 2. will be
greeted wl'.h pleasure by local movie
fans who have heard more or less of
this wonderful play when it was on
the real stage and enjoyed a record
1 reakhig run of several months at
s
the Kltinge in New York City. .'o
play, i; is safe to assume, ever thrill
ed the souls of more people than did
this rather roaght. yet extremely
dramatic story which had such an
unusual ending. And now, repro
duced in movies, the ending is more
refreshing through its being shown
to be only a dream instead of ac
tual happenstance, while the wife is
redeemed to her husband and they
go along life's pathway happy again
in the possession of each other.
The photography and lighting ef
fect.' are said to be exceptionally
good and there are some excellent
interior views. Those not familiar
with the action as it occurs in the
drama will be glad of the opportun
ity to read tl. following
SYNOPSIS
The story of this is very simple.
It has to do with a wife who was
dissatisfied with her husbands busi
ness proarass and -wanted more
pretty things and more entertain
ment. To get them she was advised
by a friend who had found the
"e-i--r way."
Kventually the husband, who w,u
a real estate man, was made agent
i ;r an apainnent where he found
i'is wile's picture in one of the flats.
Questioning the woman occupying
the flat, he was informed that she
was. a friend, and a date was made
for him to meet her at eight that
evening.
Hubby returned to his house and
had dinner with his wife and his
mother and lather who lived with
him. from which dinner the nervous
wife hurried a way to dress secretly
for her appointment.
Iiubby. however, beat her to the
flat and waited anxiously. When
she came in he took her behind some
curtains and choked her to death.
The producers finished off with a
happy ending, showing all of this
experience to have been a dream of
the wife, which converted her to a
better view of life.
So far as cliaract rizat ion and
drama is concerned, the offering is
very good. The important situations
were intelligently handled, the gen
eral atmosphere was good and some
of the sets were excellent and there
were many effectively lighted scenes.
As the young wife who slipped
from grace. Florence Reed gives a
portrayal which for the first time,
demonstrates her real dramatic abil
ity on the screen and as a whole, her
characterization was splendid. Most
of her work was very sincere and
impressive. She made the character
live.
Frank Mills as the husband was
excellent. He played with enough
repose to stand out against the
nervous activity of Miss Reed and
from first to last his characteriza
tion was genuinely pleasing. Gus
Weinberg and Alice Gale, as Mr.
Mills' father and mother respective
ly, were great types, and they play
ed with a nice knowledge of the
value of little touches. Others in
the cast were Lenore Harris. Kate
Lester and ("apt. Harry Lambert.

but is known litre and throughout
Mexico as a reliable man.
The American told a thrillinn story
of the arrest of himself and com
panions, their beiim taken before
Villa personally and the conversa
tions he had with Villa personally
and Felip Angeles, who was to have
started a new revolutionary move
ment in conjunction with Villa soon.
"Angeles had apologized because
he and Villa had eaten all the break
fast." the American said. "Villa
shook hands, told us not to worry as
we would be well treated and that
he had no intention of harming any
of us. In the bis adobe room ad
joining the corral I had a lon talk
with Anpeles, who praised the Amer
ican democracy and said that was the
kind of government Mexico needed
as there was too much differiT.ce
between the li;i;h and low classes in
Mexico. It was during this talk that
Villa passing by. stopped to tell me
that he was ready to shoulder a
rifle should the United States be in
vaded by a foreign force as we were
neighbors and should stand togeth

After beine: released and given a
safe conduct through Villa's lines
the American was again arrested by
the home guards who are organized
to protect their homes from bandit
raids. While the American was held
at N"amiuipa by the home guards

LIBERTY BONDS DEPRECIATE
IN VALUE RIGHT ALONG
New York. March I'S. Foiled
States Senator William Cabbr. of
New York, announced here lodav he
had written a letter to Secretary of
the Treasury Glass calling aMeniion
to depreciation of re: ut issues of
Liberty bonds and urging the sec
retary to cable President Wilson ad
vising that a special session of con
gress be called at once so that the
situation might be remedied. Semi
tor ('aider expressed the poinion
that unless this was done it would
be impossible to obtain popular sub
scriptions to the forthcoming loan.
thus necessitating the taking of
bonds by the banks, a situation that
I would, he wrote, have the effect of
limit ing credit for general business
with injurious effects upon the en
tire country.
