-I)A.LGi:i GOODS." Tlichard Uennett lirinprs to tho Oliver opera house this evening1 the lemarkaijlo sociological play, "Damaged Goods", which has be;n described by ono noted divine as tho reformr's trumpet blast urging the present to give the future a friuaro deal. The play deals with tho social evil iind tho "social disease" and the author draws his moral in tho story of a oung man who is -mfl'ering from a terrible disease but who marries in Wito of Ids physician's warning1 that the blood taint is hereditary. Jn tho second act, the author shows tow the sins of the father are visited Vpon tho Innocent wife and child, and in a sceno of tragic woe, the young man is at bi-t brought face to face with tho hideousners of his crime. Jlrleux, known in France as tho "apostle" of the theater, points a way to a healthier and happier future generation through a health certificate with every marriage license. Ho pleads for a clearer understanding of sex facts by oung men and young women who have in their keeping the 1 ut urn of the race. The same east which supported Mr. I Bennett when "Damaged Goods" played the Iilackstone theater will be seen at the Oliver. There has not been A .-ingle charge in tho personnel of the ompany. One of the mo?t striking characterizations In "Damaged floods" Is the j-'irl, portrayed with vivid realism by Miss Adriennu Morrison (Mrs. Ucr-nett).

plenty of good natured and sharp wit and do not hesitate to make fun of their own ponderous size. That many portly women are going to take advantage of the management's offer of free admittance to all women weighing over ISO pounds was quickly demonstrated at the Tnursday matinee when 37 laughingly stepped on the scales and were admitted free. Following the "big" act came Fay, two Coleys and Fay, who easily hold their own with the best of vaudeville entertainers. Their methods are a trifle peculiar and it Is hard to tell at times Just what thej", are doing but they scored heavily just as they did hero last fall with the Alice Lloyd show. , Their harmony singing is excellent, their comedy clean and amusing and the act leaves tho audience wanting more. Carita Day sang several selections pleasingly, offered an interesting recitation and danced surprisingly well. The Ilayama Jap's entertained with, barrel juggling and clever foot work. Charles Pennington. a one-legged acrobat does difficult high kicking.

BUS LEI OFF WITH SENTENCE II PRISON

Gets Fifteen Years in Penitentiary For the Murder of His Wife at Chicago Hotel Last October.

CHICAGO. March 6. William Cheney Ellis, on trial for the killing of hia wife In the liotel Sherman Oct. 16, 1913, was Thursday found guilty of murder and sentenced to fifteen years in the penitentiary. The verdict was accepted by both the prosecution and defense as a victory. Assistant State's Attorney Malato, knowing the disposition of American juries to show leniency where there exists the element which has come to be recognized as the "unwritten law," feared that the jury might find that Kills was insane at the timo of the tragedy and. either send him to an aylum or acquit him. Attorney Kernus, for the defense, said that tho verdict which was only one year, more than the minimum punishment for murder was all that he could possibly hope for. Kills himself declared that he was greatly disappointed because he had felt sure that the jury would have appreciated the fact that he had no knowledge of what happened when he killed his wife and that he should have been acquitted. As a matter of fact, Kills was most agreeably surprised at the verdict and more than pleased to have escaped the gallows. When he came back into the court room to hear the verdict his face was ashy pale, his eyes rolling and he was continually running out his tongue to moislen his lips A motion was made for a new trial, but it is not thought that the defense will fipht very hard for one. With Kpod conduct, a 15-year term is cut to eipht and a half years and there is always the chance of being pardoned or paroled. It was tho opinion around the court room that Kills, having- escaped the gallows will probably Jet ivell enough alone. The verdict was reached after the jury had deliberated only three hours and fifteen minutes. l!et Family Laxative. lSeware of constipation. Use Dr. King's New Llfe Pills and keep well. Mrs. Charles L .Smith, of West Franklin, Me., calls them "Our family laxative." Nothing better for adults or aped. Get them to-day, 25 cents. Recommended by All Druggists. Advt.

(Rex Drama) The Coward Hater Phillip Smalley The School Teacher Lois Weber Her Suitor Rupert Julian Her Sister .. Theo. Carew The Child Ella Hall The Father Fred Wilson Harvey Mariin, a millionaire of eccentric ideas, and essentially a voman-hater, is telling- the story. First, he hates women because they are cowards and further, he believes that all of his sweethearts have loved him" merely because he is rich. Jane, a poor but somewhat proud school teacher, visits her wealthy married sister. Forthwith, the sister sets a dragnet for a rich match for Jane. Martin falls into the net and is informed by the intriguing sister that 'Jane is absolutely . without fear. Martin grimly decides to put her to the test. " ' He brings her mice, snakes and vicious dogs, but Jane controls herself and keeps up the semblance of being fearless. As a supreme test Martin dares her to explore the graveyard at dead of night. She accepts the challenge. As a result of this test, however, she becomes ill. She thanks Martin for teaching her to overcome fear as she can now overcome her fear of poverty and go back to her teaching. Martin, however, now discovers that one who overcomes tear is more than one born fearless. Thus he asks her to be his wife. The end of the matter is that she does not return to teaching. "MABEL'S BEAR ESCAPE (Keystone). This is truly a scream; no ordinary human being could help laughing over it, and especially over Mabel Normand's being chased by a very lively bear, "it is the best picture of its kind we remember, and the two half-grown bear cubs that are ued in it are the funniest animals we have seen.
