SOCIETY SEES SELF AND MUCH SHOCKED

Louisville, Ky., July 19. "See Kentucky society turket trot; see the pictures of the Iebus race meet. Ten cents." This sign In front of a motion picture theatre and the Alms inside gave the hardest shock to Kentucky society It ever experienced. The pictures reproduce the scenes attendant upon the private race meet given by Mrs. Clarence Lebus, wife of the president of the Burley Tobacco company, at her country placef Hinata farm, near Lexington, several weeks ago. Forgetful of the fact that Lebus had granted permission to Louis Ramsey to take motion pictures of the whole entertainment the yonng men and women and some of the elders, too. danced and cut up in a care free manner which looked better in the surroundings of the gay race meeting than on the cold, black and white motion picture serene.

It's Mere Speculation. Gambling being very much in dis-

I favor at present in New York, the Interest in the coming Rellance-Lu-! bin baseball game Is confined to mere ' speculation, and ilnce making the de- ' elding hit during the last half of the 'ninth Inning of the Pathe game, Irving Cummlng is enjoying the novelty of being a real hoest-to-gosh hero, instead of a make-believe one in a drama.

Rona Hodges.

One of the sweetest little girls In moving pictures Is four-year-old Runa Hodges. Last year an Eastern film company wanted to put out a picture featuring "Cupid." But where could a real live Cupid be found? Finally one of the company produced a photograph of a little blonde girl and she was pronounced to be just the right type. That's how litle Runa got her start in the "movies." After doing some good work for this concern she was transferred to the ranks of the Reliance players. She recently was featured in a series of "Runa" films, and bids fair to become as popular as she Is pretty.

ROYAL PICTURE SHOW.

A moving picture theatre is to be Installed at Buckingham palace for the instruction arid pleasure "of the younger members of the kings family and their friends. A small salon Is to be Used and while the screen on which he pictures will be shown will be somewhat small,, the apparatus will be the best In the market. The new form of royal entertainment will not be put into operation until after their majesties have returned from Cowes.

MOVIES TO BE PUT ON THROUGH TRAINS Historical libraries composed of motion picture Alms and ocean steamships and long distant trains equipped with motion picture shows are among the things predicted for the near future by the motion theatre owners who are gathering in the metropolis from every section of the country for the third annual convention and exhibition of the Motion Picture Exhibitors' League of America. The motion picture men are of the belief that their business Is still In Its Infancy. At the same time they declare that It Is probably the largest business In the wold today. Reports to be submitted to the convention show that In the United States alone there are 17,000 moving picture shows, and that these represent an butlsy of anywhere from $1,000 to $150,000 apiece, while some are being built now that will go beyond the higher figure.

E. P. Allis III. of Milwaukee, Robert A. Gardner of Hinsdale, Warren K. Wood of Homewood or J. C. Le Due of Calumet will be the new amateur champion of the Western Golf Association. This became certain at the Homewood Country Club yesterday when Charles Evans, Jr., of Edgewater, succumbed to the Wisconsin champion, Allis. by 4 and 3. Gardner, who Is a former national champion, won from A. C. Perry of Calumet by 4 and S, and La Due defeated H. W. Lockett of Homewood by 1 up. Wood, the home club favorite,

defeated Fraser Hale of Skokie by 1 up in thirty-nine holes. I Allis becomes a prime favorite for final honors by hjs victory over Evans, j He distinguished himself by making the first hole In one playing In the qualifying round, but there was nothing as substantial about this feat as his defeat of the present title-holder ( yesterday. Allis put up an unbeatable quality of i golf and led by 3 up a end of the first eighteen holes. He negotiated the morning round in 73 strokes. He held the advantage all the way In the aft- j ernon test, and was evidently not abashed by the fact that he was play- ;

ing with the champion. His 38 for the first nine holes in the afternoon round is one below par. . Gardner led Perry by 3 up at the end of the first round, both playing excellent golf all the way. Gardner registered a medal total of 74 for the first eighteen holes. Perry taking 78. In the second round Gardner was only able to increase his lead by one hole before the finish of the match.

Wood found Hale a terror from the very beginning of the match, although he succeeded in accumulating a lead of 3 holes during the first half of their contest. Hale had reduced the lead to 2 up at the end of twenty-seven holes, and finished In racs horse fashion, wlnnig three holes in the final nine and allowing the home player to take one, the other holes having been halved. Playing the extra holes, the first, or thirty-seventh of the match, was halved In 4, the thirty-eighth In E and Wood won the thirty-ninth In 4 to 5. Hale lost the match by topping his drive, which Just barely rolled off the teeing ground and his second waa a long carry to the edge of the woods, but not enough to make up for lost distance. Wood drove to the right of the green and he reached the putting stretch in two. Hale took three to reach the green. He played his fourth shot fifteen feet from the cup, but was short and took five. Wood was In in two putts, taking four strokes.

Zlf.1 TO PLAY BALL

1 Good luck and bad luck came to the Cubs yesterday. Heine ZIm will be back in uniform Saturday and out at third base ready to stop the fierce line drive or to come in fast and pluck the tantilizlng bunt off the grass. Also, and what's more to the point, perhaps, he'll be ready to walk to the plate to deliver a wallop or two. , So much for the good luck, for the time being. The bad luck is that the Cubs' home uniforms were devoured by flame that gutted their laundry Wednesday night. And that's bad luck for the players, since they are obliged to furnish their own duds. Owner C. W. Murphy sent a rush order to a. local sporting goods house for a new batch of uniforms, and the announcement is made that they will be ready for the team when It gets here Saturday.

England plans its hope on his ability to defeat hi opponent on the rumor that McLoughlin is stale. Mcloughlin did not play up to his form in the Canadian matches, but certainly ahowed no sign of staleness then.
