PRINCESS THEATRE Tuesday and Wednesday Junels& 16 BETWEEN a cruel and powerful Sheik of Arabia and a daring American captain of the famous Black Horse Troop, a deadly sued arose for possession of Sari, the lovely, unveiled Virgin, beggar girl of the Stamboul streets. One she hated and dreaded —the other she almost loved. Then, one fateful day, she entered, unseen, a Turkish mosque, forbidden to women under penalty of death. There she saw a sight that froze blood in her veins—that changed her in a moment from a care-free girl to a woman. What was the dreadful act Sari saw in the sacred mosque; who committed it, and why? What became of the Sheik and the American as a consequence of what she saw? Those are tremendous moments in “The Virgin of Stamboul.” Don’t miss them. “The Virgin Of Stamboul” Universal-Jewel $500,000 Production de Luxe DIRECTED BY TOD BROWNING STARRING PRISCILLA DEAN The Wonder Girl who created “The Wildcat of Paris/' AnMTQQTON* Adults.. .30c-3c war tax —33c ADJIIOOIViy Childrcn is c -2c war tax—l7c

As the water power bill was received on June 14, the president, under the opinion, has until midnight June 11 to sign It. *

RAILWAY PAY TO SATISFY

Hints From Labor Board Indicate Award Will Modify Unnest. Chicago, June 11.—General optimism prevails among the members of the United States labor board, now meeting daily’ in executive sessions, that the wage award for railway workers will be satisfactory to all concerned and that it will tend to modify the present industrial unrest. The question of a temporary award is now under consideration, according to G. W. Hangar, representing the public. The permanent decision will not be made for some time, he says. The only hint given as to the nature of the board’s decision, according to persons capable of forecasting, Is that the railroads will be given authority to meet competing wages of outside Industries and the railroad workers will be given wage increases necessary to meet the present cost of living.

Bryant, field agent of the co-operative crop reporting service for Indiana, which was made public. The report In part is as follows: “The June 1 condition figure for winter wheat Indicates a. crop of approximately 21,000,000 bushels. This is preliminary and subject to change later. The general appearance of the rrop Is fairly good and looks better than a month ago, but the Hessian fly ravages are beginning to show up. The spring wheat acreage has returned to about the usual acreage. The condition is only fair and on the June 1 figures a crop of about 42,000 bushels Is indicated. The oats acreage for the state as a whole shows 2 per cent above last year and amounts to 1,862,000 acres. The condition June 1 was 84 per cent of normal and Indicates a crop of approximately 61,000,000 bushels. The acreage of barley, wvhlch is very kmall, Increased but little over last year. On the figures reported for the first of June a production of about 1,500,000 bushels is indicated. Of all the small grain crops rye shows the best condition at this time, being 85 per cent of normal. On tills figure the production will amount to about 5,000,000 bushels. Apples show the best prospect since 1915. All trees that were given proper care will bear an exceptionally large crop this year. Present figures indicate a production of 6,600,000 bushels. Last year the total production amounted to only 1,700,000 bushels. The condition of the hay crop shows a slight decline from the May report, with the total production amounting tor about 2,900,000 tons. The clover acreage is 4 points under last year.
