PRUETT TRIMS YANKS AND BROWNS CLAMBER FOR FIRST POSITION
ST. LOUIS. Sept; , 18. Hubert "Shucks" Pruett, wonder pitcher for the Browns, brought high ambitions back to the St. Louis fans by turning the New York Yankees back in the second game of the series Sunday, 5 to 1.
"Babe" Ruth touched the youngster for a home run, but on the other hand
"Ken" Williams touched Waite Hoyt for a homer to even things. Sisler was on base when Williams connected for the blow. Fans Quelled. The main incidents of the day were nothing more unusual than a large crowd of fans, who had to be handled by officers. Fans waving handkerchiefs in the centerfield bleachers suppressed by police, the reason being that they bothered the batters. The win put St. Louis within four points of the lead and if they should win the final encounter, they would take the lead from the Yanks.
A woman was injured slightly by a
thrown bat during the practice ses Bion. The score: New York.

(By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Sept. 18 The gen
eral level of wholesale prices showed practically no change in August from that of July, according to reports gathered by the bureau of labor statistics of the department of labor. The bureau's "weighted index number," again registered 155 in August, a repetition of the July figure. In the group of fuel and lighting materials, tfie index number, computed
in part trom estimated prices, rose nearly 6 per cent. Metals and metal
products, due to increased cost of fuel, advanced over four per cent. Building materials, clothing, chemicals and drugs and miscellaneous commodities all showed some advance over
July prices.
On the other hand, decreases of nearly 3 per cent took place in the two important groups of farm products and foodstuffs. No change in the gen
eral price level was reported for the group of house furnishing goods. Of the four hundred and four commodities, or price series, for which comparable data for July and August were obtained, increases were found to have occurred for 135 commodities and decreases for 112 commodities. In the case of 157 commodities no changes in average prices was reported.
NEIL O'BRIEN'S MINSRTELS The program for Neil O'Brien's Minstrels, which will be the attraction, matinee and night at the Murray theatre, Wednesday, Sept. 20, is made up this year of various and unusual features. The traditional "first part," without which there could be no minstrel show, of course, does not admit of any great change, but the manager prom
ises that it will be one of the most
elaborate ever conceived from a see
iic viewpoint ana win nave a unique
finale for which Frederick V. Bowers
has written special music.
For the Ohio, O'Brien himself has written two one-act plays called "Rufus in the Lion's Den" in which (Cracker) Quipn and Allan Karle will have the principal roles, and "Put and Take, Bankers," a comedy scene, which shows the financial methods of some of the colored brethren.
Then there is a big song and dance number reminiscent of the long ago called "In Days of Old" in which are blended airs that have been almost forgotten. ' Jay Clay, monologuist, will have something to say on the topics of the
day and the performance will be brought to a close by the production of
a big one-act play written by Artemus
Callaway called "A Certain Party" in which mystery and uncertainty is the
predominant note.
The principal members of the com
pany are Jay Clay, Jake (Smoke) Gray,
Tommy Wiggins, Frank (Cracker) Quinn, Fred Miller, Stephen Ondek,
Jack Overholt, Allan Karle, J. Lester Haberkorn, W. F. Elliott, Henri Mar
tin, Hugo Angelo, Dan Marshall, Char
les Wright, Jack Hillbrook, Richard
Flournay, Perry Rogers, Jimmy John

to the Little Bear Country, in the California mountains, to take a number of scenes. She had expected to stop at a mountain hotel, and had made up her mind she could stand it for a few days. When she arrived "on location" the only quarters he could get was a one roora shack made of canvas and logs. About the time he was "settled" in this abode the owner came along and evicted her. Said he needed it himself. v
The remainder of the time wasvspent in a tent with Janice Wilson and two other actresses, who likewise failed to
find accommodations. Hedda swears
the tent had a series of holes along
two sides, which permitted the gen
eral public a generous glimpse of her "boudoir." Also, it rained and "fogged"
and "dewed" until her beautiful wardrobe looked like a fit cargo for a junk wagon. MURRETTE To the average American any ace
is lucky, and good fortune smiles with
special broadness when four of tnem are found in a single hand. To the Spaniard, however, the Ace
of Spades represents the epitome of
good luck. And so it is that Rodolpn Valentino is known as the "espada,"
or Ace of Spades, in "Blood and Sand, ' his first Paramount star picture, adapted from the Vicente Blasco Ibanez novel by June Mathis and produced by Fred Niblo. The "Espada" or matador is the Babe Ruth of bull-fighting. He is the Eddie Rickenbacker of Spain. For to him is intrusted the delicate, graceful cape play and the final sensational despatching of the bull. And keeping in the spirit of the Spanish veneration of the Act of Spades, the long matadorian sword is likewise called "espada." "Blood and Sand" is announced as being one of the most colorful pro
ductions in years. It is a story or Spain and the life of a bull-fighter, giving all the verve and romance of such an existence without presenting those features of a bull fight not enjoyed by American audiences. It Is being shown at the Murrette theatre. Lila lee and Nita Naldi have the leading feminine roles. WASHINGTON The combined talents of the famed American humorist, George Ade.
Thomas Meighan, the film star, Alfred Green, director, and an able supportign cast, have resulted in one of the most entertaining photoplays, "Our Leading Citizen," that has been seen at the Washington theatre in weeks.
Wholesome, clean, amusing, with a dash of thrill and a charming love interest, the picture was heartily received at its premier showing last night It is the story of a young lawyer in a small town, who is devoted to fishing, and who at the outbreak of the World war, enlists and returns a hero. In France he meets again a girl he has admired back home. She returns first and paves the way for his reception but his modesty prompts him to hide his light under a bushel.
Finally he is caught and properly re
ceived by the populace. He is groomed for congress, but refuses to agree to certain corrupt demands, and learn
ing, as he believes, that the girl has
urged him to on to further her bro- , ther's ends, disappears from town. Later he is brought back, wins the t election and weds the girl who has always been true to herself and to him. Mr. Meighan is ideally cast, with ! the natural, loveable characteristics of a true Ade' hero. I.l3 Wilson is ' charming as the girl; Theodore Roberts. Will Charleton, Laurance Wheat, Charles Ogle and others appear in a well balanced cast.
BECOMES INTOXICATED; STOPS AUTO; PAYS FINE CONNERSVILLE, Ind., Sept. 18 A young traveling salesman, drunk on home made wine secured in Connersville, caused excitement on the road near Alquina Saturday morning, by attempting to stop passing autos and secure a ride. Drivers feared he was a hold-up man and reported him to the police. He was fined $1 and costs.

HIDDEN MONEY FOUND
$1,600 Found in Bureau Drawer at an Auction. M'ARTHUR. O. Homer Dunkle, administrator of the estate of Mrs. Cynthia Pearce, whil- moving some furniture preparatory to offering it at auction, found $1,600, mostly in gold certificates, in an old bureau. The money is supposed to have been hidden 50 years ago by the husband of Mrs. Pearce.
$1,600 or $20,000? If this man had deposited his $1,600 in a bank 50 years ago where interest compounded twice a year is paid, instead of hiding it away, his family today would have nearly $20,000 instead of the original $1,600 which he hid away. He deprived his heirs of over $18,000 as a result of not taking advantage of the interest earning power of his money. Money is worthless unless you put it to use; a dollar hidden in your bank home is worth only one hundred cents. A dollar deposited in the bank grows with interest. Successful men and women do not permit their money to remain idle. Their money is deposited in a bank, where it works for them. Resolve today to systematize your financial affairs so that you will have a bank account to your credit when you need it. Let this bank help you.
