COL DREYFUS CRITICALLY ILL Key. Figure in Most Most Famous of Espionage Trials Feared Dying. By Timet H/iecial PARIS, Dec. 6.—C01. Alfred Dreyfus, center of one of the most famous espionage trials in modern history, was critically ill today after an operation. In recent years he has been living in quiet retreat on the Brittainy Coast, far from neighbors. Col. Dreyfus is the man who made Devil’s Island infamous. His name re-echoed throughout tie civilized world 40 years ago. A brilliant young army officer, he was serving at the ministry of war in the summer of 1894. An anonymous letter was stolen from the German Embassy. It was addressed to the military attache. Its writer was betraying France. The writing was like Dreyfus’. On the letter and some evidence—of the flimsiest sort —given in secret, Dreyfus was condemned to life imprisonment on Devil’s Island, of which few outside France ever had heard, it is the one island in the Guiana penal settlement reserved for traitors. Many were convinced of his innocence, and fought for him. Georges Clemenceau, “The Tiger;” Emile Zola, and others fought on. Drewfus was tried again in 1899 and again found guilty. But a pardon was given him at once. Still his friends fought on. Another trial was held in 1906 and he was acquitted triumphantly. The evidence against him had been forged in a

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

66 TERRORISTS SHOT DOWN BY SOVIETSQUADS Red Terror Issues Warning Against Assassinations; Woman Killed. (Copyright. 1934. hy United Press) MOSCOW, Dec. 6.—Sergei Kirov, veteran and well loved Bolshevik leader, was given a hero’s funeral today as the bullet torn bodies of 66 government antmies, including a woman, attested the government’s determination that his assassination was not to be followed oy others. The woman was Zinaida Buligina. She and the others were convicted of being terrorists. They were tried n secret, before military courts without right of appeal, under the emergency “dictatorship of the proletariat—the red terror —proclaimed after the assassination of Kirov, one of the Soviet Union's “Big Ten”- and chief government agent at Leningrad, by Leonid Micoliev. They were executed at once. The 66 were not charged with complicity on Kirov’s murder. That seemed to be the result of a personal grudge. Micoleiv. a former Communist official, held against Kirov. But they died, while at Leningrad surgeans worked to save Micoliev from deatn by a self-inflicted bullet wound and injuries inflicted by the guards who siezed him after he shot Kirov. They died to express the government’s determination that Micoliev’s act should not be a model for others, and Micolitv’s recovery was sought so that he might be questioned and shot officially. A few hours after the shattered bodies of the 66 dropped before the rifle volleys of their executioners—--37 at Leningrad and 29 here —Kirov’s body was taken from its state catafalque in the hall of mirrors and cremated. Briton May Receive Nobel Award OSLO, Norway, Dec. 6.—Sir Norman Angell, British writer and lecturer, was considered today to be almost certain to receive one of the Nobel peace prizes, two of which will be awarded this year.

The Theatrical World Mady Christians Shines in ‘Wicked Woman’ _ BY WALTER D. HICKMAN

IF you are one of the many moviegoers who likes to see new people in leading roles, you will be glad to know that Mady Christians is making her first appearance in an American-made movie in “A Wicked Woman.” Miss Christians will make her Indianapolis debut tomorrow and her role is that of a mother of four children. Miss Christians’ debut is important because she has been made a star by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. an honor based upon her European triumphs upon stage and screen and especially in The Waltz Dream,” a European-made picture. Therfe have been very few women on the screen in late years who can develop an emotional scene as it should be developed. Too many have lacked the background and training needed for great acting. 'Miss Christians has the background and the training. She is the daughter of Rudolph Christians, a noted European actor, and Bertha Klein, opera star. She was schooled by Max Reinhardt and has been associated with Franz %char. Erich Pommer, and Ernst Lubitsch. ana BOTH her parents kept up their careers after they were married and little Mady literally was reared on the stage. She was born in Vienna, but lived for a time in Berlin when her father was playing at the Royal Theater and her mother was in opera in that city. She spent seyen years of her childhood in New York while her father played there. Other countries were visited and today she speaks six languages. Her father made his screen debut in “Foolish Wives,” w'hich was made in Hollywood. He died before the picture was finished, and Robert Edison finished the last scenes by

playing the role with back to the camera. Mady and her mother returned to Europe. Mady sought the aid of Reinhardt and made her Vienna debift in “The Miser.” For years she took roles in plays of Shakespeare, Shaw, Pirandello, and Molierre. Then she went Into pictures for ■UFA and became the Garbo of Europe. Will she become the great sensation here that she was abroad? That’s the answer that Mady Christians wants to know from the movie public of this country.
