ENEMY ALIENS
TUNNEL OUT OF
FORT DOUGLAS
Between 7 and 1 7 Make Escape
Beneath Wire Enclosure
of Prison.
By The Associated Press.
Sslt Lake City. Utah. Sept 15.
Between seven and 17 enemy alien
prisoners at the war prison barracks
at Fort Douglas, near here, escaped
early today by way of a tunnel con
structed underneath the wire en
closure of the prison. An early
check of those missing indicates that
none of the important prisoners escaped.-
According to Col. George R.
Byram, there were 207 prisoners in
the compound, most of them of the
I. W. W. class. Police and sheriffs
throughout the state have been
warned to watch for the escaped
men.
Reports from Ogden said several
suspects had been rounded up by
the police there, but none yet iden
tified as escaped from the war pris
on. The tunnel through which the
men made their escape extended for
80 feet beyond the wire enclosure
of the compound and was dug six
feet below the surface. Its con
struction completely escaped detec
tion, no trace having been found of
the dirt removed.
Search for the men is being made
throughout the intermountain coun
try. Select Provisional President
San Salvador, Republic of Sal
vador, September IS. Dr. Francisco
Bogran has been named provisional
president of Honduras, pending the
presidential election.

Be Careful What You
Wash Your Hair With
Most soaps and prepared sham
poos contain too much alkali, which
fa very injurious, as it dries the
scalp and makes the hair brittle.
The best thing to use is Mulsified
cocoanut oil shampoo, for this is
pure and entirely greaseless. It's
very cheap and beats anything else
all to pieces. You can get this at
any drug store, and a few ounces
will last the whole family for
months.
Simply moisten the hair with
water and rub it in, about a tea
spoonful is all that is required. It
makes an abundance of rich, creamy
lather, cleanses thoroughly, and
rinses out easily. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and is soft,
fresh looking, bright, fluffy, wavy
and easy to handle. Besides, it
loosens and takes out every particle
of dust, dirt and dandruff.
mHE MIRACLE MAN," at the
I Rialto, has broken this thea
" ers own record. Seldom
does a thing grip as does this mo
tion picture. It is a picture of
crooked lives made straight, of sor
did lives made bright by the whole
some sway of the country and an old
man's trust in men. No propaganda,
no creed. A vivid, vital story of hu
man hearts, told on the screen in
scenes of marvelous variety. Driv
ing ahead w ith action that grips and
holds. Softened with humor so true
that it laughs with mankind, so deep
that it starts the tears.
Strand Clara Kimball Young in
"The Better Wife" is a story of an
American girl who goes to England
and there becomes acquainted with
Sir Richard Beverly and his family.
Lharmian Page, the American girl,
immediately falls in love with the
baronet's little boy, and when his
mother is killed in an automobile ac
cident Sir Richard grows to love
Charmian, but refrains because of
the memory of his first wife till he
learns she was not deserving of his
love, and the American as the sec
ond Lady Beverly is actually the
better wife. Nigel Barrie as the
English baronet gives a very fin
ished performance. The exterior
scenes are beautifully chosen, some
of them are magnificent. Katherine
Williams, Lilian Walker, Irving
Cummings and Edward Kimball are
also in support.
Sun "Sahara," with Louise
Glaum, is the story of an extrava
gant wife who goes through her
husband's money. Being an engi
neer, he gets a position to go to
Eypt, where she finds herself on
the desert, miles away from every
one. A Russian comes along and
she leaves her husband and child.
The husband becomes a dope fiend,
and along with his little boy he goes
to Cairo.

Stop Itching Eczema
Never mind how often you have tried
and failed, you can stop burning, itching
eczema quickly by applying Zemo fur
nished by any druggist for 35c. Extra
large bottle, $1.00. Healing begins the
moment Zemo is applied. In short
time usually every trace of eczema,
tetter, pimples, rash, blackheads and
similar skin diseases will be removed.
For clearing the skin and making it
vigorously healthy, always use Zemo,
the penetrating, antiseptic liquid. It
is not greasy and does not stain. When
others fail it is the one dependable
treatment for skin troubles of all kinds.
