WINNER IN MR

Hudson Maxim Says Enemy Could Walk in ?.nd Take Our Largest Cities and Hold Them Indefinitely. NKW YORK. Jan. L Hudson Maxim declared In a public address at the IJedforj Presbyterian church that wo must tr,ht the winner of the European war. He said: "Whoever may win In the present "war.1 we are doomed to flsht the winner. The only thlnj? that could save us would be for the conflict to end in a draw. "After thn present war Ls over, should one of tho belligerent nations with Its veteran lighting blood up, attack us, how arc we prepared to imet that attack? Our army and navy men tell us our position Is pathetically defen..eless. They tell us that, should our navy bo destroyed or vaded and an army-of only 100,000 men equipped with all of the arms and paraphernalia, of modern warfare be landed on our coa.it, that army could go anywhere it should sec lit, live off the country, capture our big- cities and hold us up for ran so me in :-pito of all that we could do. "Hut let us assume that an invading arrro of 100,000 men should be landed near New York and send out detachments to capture the places where our arms and munitions of war arc made, they would not have far to go. At New York and Bridgeport they would find the Winchester and IT. M. C. cartridge works and the Winchester Repeating Arms works and at Springfield, Mass., the armory where our rifles are made. At Ilion, N. Y., they would lind our Brooklyn navy yard. They would find the Frank ford arsenal Just this side of Philadelphia. They would find most of our explosives and smokeless works in the ttate. of New Jersey at Fompton lakes, at Parlin and at Carney's Point. "With these captured we should tlnd ourselves in a pretty ideklc. Not only "would we be unarmed, but we would have no means of arming ourselves thereafter, while the enemy could arm himself ad infinitum with our own equipment." WILL PUT BLOCK OF SECURITIES ON MARKET St. 'Paul Iload Will U.so lToccctls to Carry on Improvemcnts. NEW YROK. Jan. 2. The Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railway Co. will bo ono of the lirst important railroads to sell a large block of securities in tho new year. - This road is planning to offer to investors approximately $17,000,000 bonds probably part of the general a Ml refunding issue of which $ SO, 000000 wero unsuccessfully offered last summer for public subscription at t6 1-2 and interest Wall st. expects that the company will revert to tho plan of first selling the lionda to tho bankers. Proceeds will, it is understood, be used partly for carrying on the improvement work on the Pugent sound extension and for electrification work. St. Paul directors met Thursday find had this to say: "We are considering the sale of securities, but nothing definite has yet "been reached.

Theaters 'U.vdkk c()vi:i:." Itoi Cooper Moruc's thrilling new playv "Under Cover", the current sensation of New York and Chicago. which Felwyn & Co. will produce at the Oliver matinee and night today, gives promise of affording local playgoers the greatest pleasure of the theater. "Under Cover" is Mr. Megrue's first success, hut not the first successful production of Selwyn fc Co., for they were responsible for "Within the Law". Judging by the long runs in New Yor!:, lioston ana Chicago, this linn has. in "Under Cover", a play which will prove even a greater dramatic and financial success than the famous Yeiller melodrama, . "Under Cover" has to do with smugglers and the secret service. The story tells of the purchase in Paris of a valuable pearl necklace. This Ls noted by the treasury department and when it is not declared on being brought into the United States the secret service is immediately put on the truck of the smugglers. The ensuing complications make a vastly interesting play and they come so fast that they almost trip over one another. And, according to the reviewers, when there are not thrills there is laughter, and the audience is kept at high tension from the rie of the first curtain until it descends on the final act. So unusual is the working out of the storv that the critics refused unanimously to reveal it to the public m the interest 01 tne playgoers who wish to see the piece. In selecting the company to interI ir.. . i r . .....- i,.. c?i,. --., Ll' L.IlUfI V.M CHH.u. & care that each part be properly play ed. for from the smallest bit to the leading parts the characters all require expert delineation. It is in the ensemble performance that the play requires most careful attention. Prom a scenic standpoint no detail has been neglected to make the illusion perfect. The lirst act takes place in a room at th customs house !n Xew York and the three last acts follow at a home on Pong Island. Thej action transpires during the afternoon a vening of a day in August. "ALMA" COMING. The musical success. ,'Alma-Where-Do-You-Iave?", Avill be seen at the Oliver Sunday matinee and night. The book is by Paul Herve. the music by Jean Briquet, and the Knglish translation by George V. Ilohnrt. The comedy is said to be of the most wholesome variety, and the melodies are of the haunting kind. In fact, the "Alma" waltz, which runs a?l through the play, is said to outrival the famous strain in "The Merry Widow". Till: APPlTOKIt'M. The offering at the Auditorium today Includes "The Mystery of the Seven Chests", a Selig drama in two reels; "Just a Kid". Biograph drama: "Crystals", their making, habits and beauty, an Kdison educational picture; "F.ustpr Brown Causes a Commotion", taken from the famous cartoons of F.uster P.rown. featuring little Andy Clarke; the Path daily news and "A Strand f Blonde Hair", a Yitagraph comedy featuring Flora Finch.

A battle between two men that was actually staged during a violent lightning storm, is one of the decidedly novel scenes in this picture. The rain coming down in torrents. the Hashes of lightning though the sky. the fearful struggle between a criminal and a secret service official, results In a really marvelous picture. The story tells of how Jim 'rompton falls desperately in love with Jeannette Luther, found unconsciou? on the beach. Jeannette has been washed off the deck of a steamer while on her honeymoon trip. XelHe. Jim's wife, resolve's to kill her rival, but her nerve fails. The woman thereupon betrays her husband to the authorities. It happens that George Luther, Jeanne-He's husband, is a se-

-V.'.'.V. cret service official. Tie comes to the island. How he lights Jim in the dark and how George's life is saved b.y a bolt of lightning which kills the smuggler, are said to be wonderfully shown. "UXCLK TOM'S CAR IX." Kibble and Martin's "Uncle Tom's Cabin" comes to the Oliver Tuesday afternoon and night. The matinee will not be given until 3: CO after school is out. so the children will have an opportunity to see this popular play. The usual street parade will be given at noon. AT Till: ORPIIKUM. The present bill at the Orpheum consists of the six Abadallahs, a troupe of Arabian acrobats who perform with marvelous agility and speed. Kichard Milloy & Co. are presenting , a laughable comedy sketch, 'llogan and, the Mummy". Copeland and Pa'ton, ciever colored comedians, have a novel offering, a comedy scene in p. dining car. The two Connelee sisters are juvenile entertainers of ability and West and VanSicklen present a musical oddity, "The Rose Arbor". Pinal performances of the bull will be given tomorrow. at Tin: MAJKsnc. Tonight rounds out the 14th week of the permanent musical stock company at the Majestic. Constant changes and improvements have kept the company up to the hinh standard required by the management and the patrons. The present bill Is called, 'Duffy's Revenge", and it is a lively Irish comedy with a number of musical and dancing specialties woven through the action of the amusing farce. AT Till PASAPLK. Today's feature at the IaSalle is a two-reel Broncho drama, "The City of Darkness". It is a sensational story of love and politics. A ward politician desires revenge on a governor of a state and has an innocent man convicted of murder. He is sentenced to death in the electric chair and is only saved when the electric current of the entire city is thrown off at the power house. Another tworeel picture full of sentiment and realism is called, "The Foundlings of Father Time". It is a story of an aged couple and their interesting if at times pathetic experiences. A Xestor comedy, "Such a Mistake", will be found amusing and a rattling good western drama, "The School Teacher of Angel Camp", will be entertaining. AT Till; SFKPIUSi;. "A Night of Thrills" is the principal picture at the Surprise today. The plot is new and interesting and concerns the different people that gather at a supposed-to-be empty mansion which is temporarily occupied by a gang of crooks.
