POLAND IS EAGERLY ANTIGIATING COMING VOTE FOR PRESIDENT

(By Associated Press) WARSAW, Feb. 1. Poland, politically is eagerly looking forward to the pummer elections when the first president of the new republic will be chosen by a national assembly composed of representatives of both chambers of the diet. Joseph Pilsudskl, who was appointed chief of state just after Poland was declared a republic late in 1918. and has held office ever since under a provisional constitution, is understood among politicians to be one of the presidential candidates. Several other names have been mentioned, but the newspaper editorial writers appear reasonably confident that tno chief contenders will be Pilsudski. Vincent Witos, former premier and the present lender of the peasantry party in the Diet, and Wojciech Trampezynskl, speaker of the DietThere also has been much speculation among politicians as to whether Ignaee Jan Paderewski, pianist 1 and former premier, would enter the presidential race, but no definite announcement has ever been made one way or the other. For nearly a year Paderewski has been in America, spending most of his time in Paso Robles, California. Ignace Paderewski was recently quoted as saying at Paso Robles thr.t he probably -would return to Poland within four or five months, that he considered himself at the service of his country and always ready for a call, but he did not think he would accept the presidency if it were offtv'2 od to him. He added that he had no .intention to take part in govemmentru affairs. News of the Counties CENTERV1LLE, Ind.

MURDER MYSTERY $100,000.00 John O'Conner Estate Information Wanted It has been learned why John O'Connor, "mystery man, of Hastings, Nebraska, changed his name from Mat Kirkman to John O'Connor. O'Connor, whose real name is believed to have been Mat Kirkman, died at Hastings, Nebraska, leaving an estate of $100,000.00. O'Connor's identity is being tried before a jury at this time. John F. Kirkman claims to be a son. It is alleged that Mat Kirkman changed his name to O'Connor because, somewhere in Indiana about 1S69, while Kirkman was working on a wagon bridge or culvert, he quarreled with a man about the road being closed, and Kirkman is. said to have struck the man over the head with a spade or other tool, killing him. The team ran away. Kirkman escaped through the woods, abandoning his wife and child at Camden, Preble county, Ohio. His wife's maiden name was Mary Trickey, of Shenandoah or Shannondale, Indiana, whom he married at Lebanon, Indiana. Kirkman changed his name to O'Connor, not daring to return to his family. His deserted wife died about New Year's 1870. The boy was bound out to a widow in Indiana. Kirkman went to Nebraska, where he became wealthy and died under the name of O'Connor.

It is necessary to learn at once just where this alleged murder took place. Information at the earliest hour by any one .who knows about this alleged murder, or where it took place, is desired by W.W. Bulman,. attorney for John F. Kirkman, Hastings, Nebraska.

THE

RICHMOND. N It used to be said that art and business could not be combined successfully. The motion picture has proved this to be without foundation. It follows therefore that one may be a hardheaded business man, practical and possessing common sense in large measure, and yet have the ability and dramatic- instinct necessary to produce really artistic results. Such a man is Sam WTood, who directed the first Paramount picture starring Gloria Swanson "The Great Moment," by Elinor Glyn, which is showing at the Richmond theatre. Mr. Wood was in commercial lines prior to his picture work, and foi some time after entering the latter, was assistant director to Cecil B. De Mille. Here was a schooling for any man, and Mr. Wood profited by it He developed originality to such an extent that he was selected to direct Wallace Reid. one of the most popular stars in the world, in several of bis fast moving automobile comedien which proved so successful. Perhaps one of the biggest opportu nities to date came in "The Great Moment." Sam Wood is easy going, courteous, capable. He gets through his work with a minimum of effort, apparently, but it is only because there, Is no friction. He works hard and conscientiously. He has won the esteem of all with whom he has come in contact and that is one of the most important things for a director to accomplish. VICTORY THEATRE, DAYTON. Probably, no combination of play and player has so caught the fancy of the American theatre-going public in a decade, as has Fay Bainter in "East Is West," which will be presented by William Harris, Jr., for three days, beginning Thursday of this week with a matinee on Saturday, at the Victory theatre, Dayton, Ohio. After having scored a very great success which kept it for two years at the Astor theatre, New York, it was shown at Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago, iwhere the comedy was received with the greatest favor. "East Is West," is by Samuel Shipman, who was responsible for another much talked of play, "Friendly Enemies"; and John B. Hymer, and is a comedy of Amerian and Chinese life, with scenes laid in these two countries. It opens with a prologue, showing a "Love-Boat" on the Yangtse river in China where the unnecessary daughters of the poorer class are sold to the highest bidder. From that remote point one is carried to the Chinese quarter of San Francisco, and the exclusive Nob Hill section of the Golden Gate city. Creates Character Miss Bainter, as Ming Toy, the little Chinese maiden, has created a character which will long live in the memory of playgoers. It is appealing and wins the sympathy of all who have seen her; in fact, her characterization has placed Fay Bainter as one of tne toremost players of the day. Any analysis of the play resolves itself into an analysis of the art of Miss Bainter. For though the theme itself is Just such a combination of Oriental " atmosphere and Occidental vigor as appeals to the great American heart, and the setting is said to be carried out with exactness of detail it, is little Ming Toy who is the life and heart of the action. The caln celestial sky seems to form a background only for her winsomeness; th3 "white man's God" takes on a newefficacy in the light of her naive faith. Mr. Harris has surrounded Miss Bainter with an unusual supporting company, , including Ralph Lock?, Frederick' Howard, William Tennyson Albert Berg, Robert Harrison, Pimply?

Storm," which Jack Bessey IF BACK HURTS BEGIN ON SALTS Flush Your Kidneys Occasionally If You Eat Much Meat. No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flush ing tne Kidneys occasionally, says ai well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid, which clogs the kidney pores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons from the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver troubles, nervousness, constipation, diziness, sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The moment you feel a dull acne in your kidneys or your back hurts, or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding, get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a tablcspoonful in a glass of water just before breakfast for a few days and your kidneys will then act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid cf grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush clogged kidneys and stimplate them to activity, alro to neutralize the acids in urine so it m.. longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder disorders. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink, which all regular meat eaters should take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and the blood pure,' thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.

company will present at that theatre for all of next week. The play is by Langdon McCormick who has been responsible for several dramas of the "thriller" order, and his last effort proved of sufficient interest last season to fill the 48th Street Thpatre Npw York, for one year. A striking feature of "The Storm" will be its realistic forest fire scene. Secure your seats now for "The Storm" as the demand is big. "The Storm," during its long run on Broadway, demonstrated itself as a play of intense moments and powerful appeal, withal entertainment personified. The basic principles of the plot are romance and melodrama, and yet there is the all pervading charm of the little French Canadian girl, Manette Fechard, who is left alone in a cabin in a western wood, by the death of her father, and a great blizzard, to preserve harmony and peace between a rugged westerner and an effete eastrner who are wooing her.
