“BETWEEN SAVAGE AND TIGER” AT PRINCESS

Another George Kleine Popular Six Part Photo Play For Saturday, February 14th. The story of this popular photoplay, “Between Savage and Tiger,” is in. part as follows: Lieutenant floss, stationed on the African frontier, is in charge of large stores of dynamite. His wife, Marie, telephones him of the serious illness of their child and ibeseeches him to hurry home. Ross finally consent to do this, leaving a subordinate in command. A coniderable quantify of the dynamite, moved during Sis absence, explodes with frightful loss of life, For his, neglect of duty, Ross is dismissed from the army in disgrace. In the hope of improving his fortunes he plunges into the jngles of India. • Here his rare marksmanship wins him the admiration of the natives. One day Ross fires at an antelope and the beast, after one spasmodic leap, drops dead. This is considered a great feat among the natives. A closeby Indian village is much harassed by man-eating tigers and the chief, after vainly trying to persuade Ross to remain, orders his arrest. Ross hears of his treachery and flees. He is ambush ed, and takes refuge in a tree. The natives, having no guns and the lieutenant no ammunition, the natives find it an easy task* to cut down the tree and carry their quarry in safety to the camp. Sentenced to be burned alive, the fagots are piled high in the center of the /Village. After the fagots are lighted the chief is taken with a violent coughing spell. The lieutenant sees his opportunity. “Free me,” he cries, “and I will save the life of your chief.” Ross is freed and the sentence temporarily revoked. ißoss kills several tigers for the tribe. These exploits win him the love of Sarama, the chiefs daughter. He tries to escape, but is finally recaptured after an exciting race. (Meantime his wife, Marie, takes passage on a liner for Calcutta. The boat takes fire, but herself and daughter, Elsie, and her mother, are saved by their servant. They plunge boldly into the jungle. After many weary days of adventure they are taken captive into the same village. A happy reunion follows. Many exciting adventures befall them, but Ross and his party finally escape after an exciting chase by the natives. Several weeks later they are received at the English village from which Marie had goire into -the jungle. Remember the time, Saturday, Feb. 14th, at The Princess Theatre.

In Carpenter township the proposition lost by a majority of 99.

Butter and Eggs Also to Be Shipped to the U. S.

It takes longer than six months to test a tariff bill.. Democrats who have tried to have it appear that the recently adopted measure would not affect the prices of the American producers will soon be kept very busy explaining. Great shipments of corn from South America republics, other grain from Canada, beef and other meats from both north and south, have btfen instrumental in cutting the prices of these products and the farmer has felt the losses already. Now butter and eggs are being received. New Zealand, Argentina, and Australia are sending these products as well as cheese and condensed milk and the arrival is having its effect on all these home produced necessities. Butterfat hasdrop ped about 8 cents a pound within the past few weeks, but it is going lower and lower as long as we have a federal law that admits free of duty the milk and cheese and butter of other countries. The Indianapolis Star is very watchful not to say anything that lends encouragement to the republican cause and an article telling of the effect of these shipments is published in very small type on an inside page. It says: “The appearance- in the American markets of foreign butter and eggs, as well as cheese and milk, has caused several sharp declines in the market valup of these commodities. That the lower tendency in these products is to be permanent is the Conclusion of Stanley Wyckloff of the Indianapolis Poultry Co. He says: 1 believe 30 cents will be the high mark in the Elgin butter market for the next few years.’ He attributes all the. recent losses In prices to the competition offered foreigners in American markets because of the removal of the tariff. On butter the entire duty was not removed although it was reduced more than one-half.” Even in Indianapolis, where the products come in direct competition with the Indiana dairy and produce farms is butter and poultry to be received. A shipment is to come the latter part of this week to Indianapolis and it will be only a question of time until the people o# the smaller communities will be eating butter and eggs shipped from the ftrtir ends of the earth or the prdSucer will be selling these articles at vastly reduced prices. And all on account of this democratic tariff.’ Mr. Fanner and Mrs. Farmer, it is time for you to give these some thought and plan to get back on a protective basis through the means of the republican party.
