The elevator so tar tills year has taken in over 60,000 bushels of Preble wheat, and the average has been good, the weight being 56 pounds to the bushel. Glen Hinsley brought In 150 bushels from 5 acres. A car shortage is reported from New Madison. Only one car has been put In there since Saturday, July 26. 18,000 bushels have been handled by this elevator. At Castine, Powell brothers have taken In 15,000 bushels or wheat and

3,000 bushels of oats. The wheat

The Theatres

MURRETTE To see "Big Bill' Hart ride, shoot and rope steers in a Western photoplay, is a delight. There are few cow punchers in the West who have William S. Hart's skill in these accomplishments and when they are seen in a motion picture play, the real thing is reproduced. In his new picture, "Breed of Men," which will be shown at the Murrette today, Mr. Hart discloses his ability to ride, shoot and rope as few men are able to do. Many of the scenes were made at the world-famous stockyards in Chicago. Others were filmed in California where a complete Western street was erected and a completely fitted gambling den and other accoutrements have been provided. The action centers about the efforts of a land shark to swindle the settlers in Arizona botomlands. How he Is brought to book by the sheriff, played by Wililam S. Hart, is shown graphically in the denouement of the startling story of life as it is lived in the far Southwest. MURRAY Up in the Yukon, where life is in the raw, men settle personal things in a primitive-personal way. Molly-coddles and invertebrates are lost in the shuffle and only the fittest survive in that region where nature is brutal and men go mad in the quest for gold. In "The Mints of Hell," at the Murray today Dan Burke (William Des

mond) heard the story of Clay Hib-

bing's treachery and insults to beautiful Aline Chaudiare, and trailed Hib-

bing to the Stag Saloon in Sundown. Like two prehistoric cave-men Dan

and Hibbing, brawny giants, battled

with their fists, one for self-preservation and the other for the honor of a woman. At the end of a furious fight Dan threw Hibbing bodily from the saloon and went back to tell the woman he had avenged her insult. Hibbing followed Dan over the Lillimuit Divide to "get" him and to steal the mine which belonged to the girl's father. He found the "Mints of Hell," but. like many others, was driv

en mad by the sight of the "Devil's Coinage." Dan saved the mine for the girl's father and married Aline, Chaudiare's beautiful daughter, but he had to go through Hell to win. The production is a smashing big drama of adventure with the thrill of red-blood and primitive emotions surging through. There are some remarkably graphic scenes of Alaskan snow-storms with an exciting dog-sled race down the mountain-trail. An excellent cast supports Desmond, including Vivian Rich, Charles French. Jack Richardson, Frank Lanning and Edward Jobson.

CHICAGO POLICEMAN LATEST WONDER OF WORLD OF FINANCE

CHICAGO, 111., Four months ago Walter 'S. O'Brien, a former city policeman, struggled for a living operating a private detective agency. He had a stuffy little ofBce away up on one of the top floors of the Consumer's Building and he counted that month a fairly prosperous one when he was able to make both ends meet. Outside of his work and his home the young detective's world was limited to the corner lunch, room at the noon hour and an occasional movie with his wife of an evening. Today O'Brien can sign his name

to a check for hi million dollars without the slightest fear of overdrawing his bank account He has closed out his detective agency and has stepped forth as a man of means. He is Chicago's newest financial wizard. On a figurative shoe string the former detective has cleaned up a fortune estimated at million dollars within the last few months. Romance of Mark!et. The story of his su&em rise to wealth is a romance of the stock market. Although a novice at speculation, he has shown himself a master in the selection of huge profit producing Investments. He doesn't plunge with Jiis money; rather he proceeds guardedly. A plunger is a fool, he says, and only the pikers leap at tips. His system of playing the market has insured him against a single loss to date. Pursuit of an investigation by his detective agency into the merits of a certain stock led him into the market and made for him his fortune. Out of an investment of $1,000 he took a single profit of M million dollars on the strength of information on a certain stock gathered for a client of his agency. Insures Life for $100,000. He has exchanged the office in the Consumer's Building for a private suite in La Salle Street. From a tenant in a 4-room flat out on the South side he is now listed as a "resident guest" on the register of one of the big downtown hotels. Only the other day he canceled hi3 $2,000 life insurance with the Policemen's Benevolent Association, and took a policy for $100,000 in one of the large insurance companies.

The "two-bit" piece that formerly went for his lunch at the convenient beanery now is a tip for a gracious waiter. Motor cars have supplanted street cars and elevated trains. But the movie still holds the same fascination.

WASHINGTON Diplomacy was one of tho greatest factors that was required after the Great World WTar was over. Diplomacy in many angles. When the last gun was fired, it was a battle of words and wits and ideas. During the four years of the war, motion picture fans revelled in war pictures, as they were called, some

good and some poor. But with the ending of the war, there were only two photoplay-wrights who endeavored to picture the happenings afterwards, and to give it to the public, while they were still thinking of it. These two are John Emerson and Anita Loos, who, upon the signing of the armistice decided to produce a picture that would visualize in its most interesting manner, what would

happen in this country when the boys came home. There's an after the war story which deals with the delicate problems of what a fellow is going to do when he comes home from the war and finds a girl in his job. It has been seriously done with every touch of comedy and satire that the people know Mr. Emerson and Miss Loos, are most capable of supplying. They have evolved a wonderful story which has much comedy action, heart interest and suspense, that sends one away from the theatre with smiles upon their faces. The picture will be the feature today and Tuesday at the Washington theatre. Ernest Truex and Louise Huff are seen in the leading roles.

A tin pail on the gravel near Cornent Traiemer's house at Palm' Mich., reflected the sun's rays against the house. The wood presently began to smoke and then there was a blaze.

Chautauqua City To Be Largest In History A larger "white city of tents" will occupy the west sections of Glen Miller park during the coming Chautauqua season thaa has ever been built up there before, according to tent reservations. Over two hundred tenting spaces had been sold Monday afternoon, and W. O. Wissler, ground secretary, had been forced to order another consignment of tents. Wissler hopes that both consignments will arrive at the same time so that all renters may have an opportunity to get their tents up in plenty of time for Friday, August 15, when the grounds open to tenters. The "Y" Chautauqua office has been the scene of a fast and furious business the lot plat opened to general purchasers Saturday morning and the entire platted capacity of the grounds Is nearly sold out However, equally desirable lots which because of smaller crowds have not been needed in former years will be opened, it is said.
