"SWAT THE KAISER" CRIES OUT THIS DIM
"The Beast of Berlin," at the Hippodjome, Arouses Audience To Frenzied Outbursts.
By Mfque O'Brien.
In "The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin," the movie eye-opener, which was the occasion of the mighty applause, the jeers and the cheers at the Hippodrome laat night, the one great outstanding feature is Rupert Julian's masterful impersonation of the role of the chief of all the Huns, the monarch of palsied arm and withered heart. Bill the brute.
Mr. Julian's acting: is startling, the sort that reaches out and gets you, that thrills Just as Thomas W. Ke?ne used to thrill us when he made all actors of his time look like understudies in the role of the accomplished murderer, the deformed Richard the Third, one of the kaiser's models,
The exaggerated ego of Wilhehn as shown in the elaborate preparation of his toilet, the careful adjustment of fach individual hair in that military mustache, which has been so extensively copied by his high and low born slaves, his titled ad untitled boobs the penciling of the eye-brows, the setting of the helmet so as not to rest upun the cancer ear—all of these little details are gone into by Mr. Julian who appears to have made a deep study of th» thing he represents In his picture.
Incidents that are described In Journals of restricted circulation, such as i lie knot1kitI# down of the kaiser by an officer' he had grossly insulted, the secret meeting's between the kaiser and puppets of the court in which the dirty work Incident to the starting of the .var was cooked up—all these things sei^ve to make this picture a rather intimate Journal. At the very beginning ihe picture chronicles in vivid truthfulness Belgium and her Inoffensive people, before the invasion of the German hosts, shows in horrible but authentic pictures the treatment of the peasants by the German army as it plows throuch Belgium and the Inhabitants, takes the spectator into the imperial palace and the chambers of i he kaiser, and unfolds the startling, repugnant Insights into his private life.
His receipt of the news of the sinking of the Liusitania, of the American ambassador's statement, that the ll.rTnited States would consider a continuance of the U-boat campaign as unfriendly,—of the declaration of war by the United States, and other momentous incidents of present day history are truthfully and faithfully reproduced and a stupendous thrilling forecast of the end of the present war provided.
In providing a popular finish to an otherwise faithful record of history events, the producers of the picture present their notion of how the war will end with Wilhelm turned over to the mercy of the giant Belgian blacksmith he had so deeply wronged. There are plenty of big mob scenes with soldiers In hurried action. "The Kwiser or the Beast of Berlin," will be at the Hippodrome all week. It should, and no doubt will, have capacity audiences for this is a rare entertainment as well as good propaganda.

Ahlgren Says He Does Not Believe That Charge Can Be Coi* xoborated.
Food Director Jolia S. Ahlgren Tuesday was notified that there had been complaints filed against Terre Haute retail grocers, but said after an investigation he did not put any faith in the charges he said that he would be able to refute them. He explained it as follows:
Terre Haute, Ind., June 17. HI8. The Terre Haute Tribune, Terre Haute, Ind.
Retail grocers of Terre Haute are accused of selling canned goods as a wheat flour substitute by a merchant of Danville, 111.
As food administrator for Vigo county, I am from Missouri on this question, because I feel that we have no grocer in Vigo county who would so grossly jeopardize the good reputation we have established on all federal food regulations requested.
Meanwhile the complaint has been filed, but the guilty one is not named, and to me this looks like a reflection on the whole. This we must resent, by Immediate and co-operative action towards ferreting out the facts to the charge, of there are any.
Now let every grocer do his part and not depend wholly upon the grocers' committee of seven, as follow s:
John Countryman. Wm. Pliant, Geo. N. Oordell. R. H. Bppert. J. P. Stitch. Karl Harkness, John Tormohlen.
Respectfully submitted. JOHN S. AHLGREN,
Federal food administrator for Vigo county.

At Ihe Movies
By Mlque O'Brien.
The revised edition of George Kletne's photo-spectacle "Quo '\alis" the "Birth of a Nation" of its production year, comes to the American today for a two days' stay. Its revival at this time is distinctly in order Inasmuch as the picture is a thrilling appeal for world democracy.
The story follows very closely .the plot of Sienkievicz's novel, opening in the private bath of Petronius, a Roman patrician who, even in those profligate davs, retained his fastidiousness and philosophy. There enters I'etronius' nephew, Vinitius, Just returned from war in Asia Minor. He tells his uncle of his love for Lygia, the daughter of a baroarian king who is held a hostage in Home and who has been converted to Christianity.
Taking up the thread of young Vinitius' love story, we are led by it
through the all-night orgies of the royal banquets in Nero's palace, to the arena where the contests between the gladiators are held, to the secret meeting place of the small band of Christions, whose leader is the Apostle Peter, and- back asain to the home of Xero, his senators and noblemen, where we have an Intimate view o£ the lives and customs of those days.
The trench scenes in "Over the Top," taken evidently at night, were taken with the consent of Secretary of War Baker of course, at Camp Wheeler, Macon, Ga. About 7,600 American soldiers are shown In action in this thrilling war picture view at the Grand. Now that delightful theatre-going weather is on tap packed audiences may be expected for the balance of the week. There are many reasons why "Over .fr'.e Top" should be good entertainnv as well as good propaganda.
