The Burehti of Foreign apd Domestic!
Commerce, of tho Department of Com
merce, In In receipt of a report from Con
sul Harry O. Seltier, at Breslf-i, Ger
many, whjeh. describe some novet mov
ing picture ads In Urestau:
'The. Dorndorf. Shoe Stores recently
Used a, klprt of purzle. picture In which
the letters D-oir-r-d-o-r-lt were made to
appear In -Irregular orSer, but each let
ter, after, more or lets confusion, finally
arranged Itself In place. This was fol
lowed by u. display of shoes, which were
made to walk out upon the screen, ar
range themselves In military style, and
then parade around the picture, doing the
famous 'goose step.' In another Instance
a customer was made to appear In one
of their six stores In Dreslau, the shoe
boxes came from their places on the
shelves, opened themselves, the shoes
came forth, placed themselves upon the
customer's foot one after another until
the customer showed by his happy smile
that he was satisfied. Clerks were not
la attendance at all. The motto was
'Dorndorf shoes sell themselves.'
"Another very clever reel shows a Turk
In the harem with his favorite., sur
rounded by luxuries of' all descriptions.
After a very Interesting love scene,
which lasts a few minutes, the favorite
brings a small tabouret Into the room.
Upon It Is a package of 'Salem Allkuman
cigarettes,' which she presents to her
lora, ana which are the 'favorite, ot
course. This reel Is used In a number
of theatres as an extra.
"Perhaps the boldest and most ela
borate advertising film which has been
going the rounds of the Breslau theatres
Is entitled 'Who Is she?' This Is a two
reel play, In which the attention centres
upon a pretty girl temporarily, but the
mask Is so skilfully withdrawn that the
audience Is rather pleased after all to
know that the two reels have been ad
vertising an automobile."
.Before the present year has ended the
Universal Company will present two of
Its foremost stars on the screen simul
taneously In the principal cities of the
United States Sarah Bernhardt and Anna
Pavlova. The Pavlowa production of
"The Dumb Girl of Portlcl" Is completed,
but as a courtesy to the star the spec
tacle will not be presented, until Pav
lowa's season at the Lexington Opera
Rouse In New Tork has terminated. The
Sarah Bernhardt nim production of
"Jean Dore" is also completed and the
negatives are now on the way to these
shores.
World Film Is to produce "McTeague
of San Francisco," based upon one of
the novels of Frank Norrls. Norris wrote
"The Pit," which was a successful book,
a successful play and a successful Wil

Conllnaed from Page One

Mr. Smith's answer was delayed eluht
days. He received a copy of the "Tran
sit Pledge," which his Franklin party
opponent, Mr. Torter, has signed, on Oc
tober 13, nnd It wan not until October 21
that a definite reply could be obtained
from him. He said he had made up his
mind not to sign the pledge, and gave
the opinion that only an Ignoramus could
answer the questions In a day or two.
"I am In faor of endeavoring to get a
S-cent universal trolley rate for Phila
delphia," he said. "This answer applies
also to the question of the abolition of
the 8. cent exchange tickets. Hut I am
unable to determine at this ttme If It Is
possible for any company to operate suc
cessfully at that (the S-cent) rate of
fare."
Of the 1S1 councllmanlo candidates In
the 35 wards so far covered, who have
given decisive answers to the "Transit
Pledge," 92 have signed nnd 59 have re
fused to sign. Ot the 92 signers TO are

"No."

lect Council committee room.
"I ain't sayln' nothln'," said Seger, who
has had a copy of the transit pledge for
three days, time enough, It wag sug
gested, for him to reach some decision
about It. At the statement those present
burst Into uproarious laughter. Mr. Seger
looked pleased and prepared to get off
something good. ,
"Wouldn't you rather save yourself the
bother of being questioned about the
pledge every day by deciding now what
you will do?" he was asked.
"No," he said, with a wink to the
others, "I want to tell you, young man,
that I like to be bothered. I hope you'll
be around regular to ask me about the

Mr, Cooper said he approved of tran
sit, but asserted he didn't believe he
could sign the pledge.
"I don't want to tie myself down to

am for rapid transit and the people In

to signing pre-election pledges."

best possible bargain and the citizens

Tense, Thrilling, Forceful
Are Triangle Plays
There's a thrill to every minute you are
watching "Martyrs of the Alamo." All of the
pathos, the heroism and the bravery that made'
immortal the defense of the Alamo are most
forcefully brought out.
There's strength reflected throughout the
entire plot of "The Disciple." A stirring piece,
exceptional acting and a gripping climax mark
this as one of the best TRIANGLE PLAYS.
And don't forget the two Keystone Comedies.
They are real side-splitting, laugh-producing plays
which you should see.

WITNESSES UNABLE TO AGREE
AS TO CHARLTON'S' RELATIONS
Some Say Wifo Slayer's "Spats" With
Woman Wero Quarrels
COMO, Italy, Oct. .-Concerning the
terms on which Porter Charlton lived
with the wife he killed later, witnesses
differed today at the resumption of his
trial here.
Some thought the couple's differences of
opinion were mere "spats"; others spoke
of them ns violent quarrels. Some thought
Charlton dominated his wife; others that
she controlled him completely. The Court
handled the proceedings rapidly, listen
ing to 20 witnesses In the course of tho
session, They included servunts uml
tradesmen who saw more or less of the
Charitons while they were living In the
house they occupied at the time of tho
killing.
The testimony related to events which
led to the tragedy. The details of the
finding of Mrs. Charlton's body had not
been reached by adjournment.
MIcell Plcardl, Charlton's chief coun
sel, Just out of a sick bed, uas In court,
still far from well.
Want Subway Stations Moved
The suggestion that entrances to the
Market street subway be removed to side
streets, on the ground that they hinder
traffic, was made by several members of
the Market Street Merchants' Associa
tion at the regular meeting lust night,
held at the Bingham Hotel. Tho associa
tion went on record as opposed to aboli
tion of the pneumatic mall tube service
of conveying molls from station to sta
tion In this city.
Porter's Voice Fails Him
George D. Porter. Franklin party can
didate for Mayor, was unable to speak at
noonday meetings today owing to the
fact that his voice was not In good con
dition. The "Flying Squadron" of the
Franklin party visited Brill's car works,
62d street and Woodland avenue, nnd the
Fels soap plant, 73d street and Woodland
avenue.

MRS. YOUNG IS CALLED
"VICTIM OF POLITICS"
Regret In This City for Resigna
tion of Chicago School
Superintendent.
npgrd wag expressed today among per
sons prominent In educational circles In
thU city on IwnnlnR of tho resignation
of Mrs, Kiln Flags Young, superintendent
of ChlMso public schools, nnd It was the
gentrnl belief that' aho had been mn.de.
the victim of the political ring which
hns stcrttlfostb opposed her progressive
methods.
Mrs. Young announced that she would
retire from service on December 8, and
declared that constnnt hccklng; by the
school trustees forced her to make such
n decision. Her announcement was re
ceived In silence. There was no word of
comment or regret. The noted teacher
said the general belief among the trus
tees thnt a person of 70 years was not
competent to do responsible work was
unjust.
Among others here who censured the
political ting for bringing about tho re
tirement of Mrs. Young was Mrs. I.
O'llnrra. former piealdent of the 3tnte
Federation of Women's Clubs.
"It wiu simply a iuestlon of politics,"
Hhe Fntd. ".lombern of tho ring In Chi
cago found that they could not rule Mrs.
Young to BUlt themselves, and It wns a
great blow when they learned that sho
would not permit politics to Interfere with
educational work. Mrs, Young had ideas
of her own nbout tho direction of tho
schools, nnd tho results which she
achieved proved that Bho was right. She
bore the opposition of the politicians
until 8ho could stand It no longer, and
wait flunlty obliged to resign on account
of tho constant Intrigues.
Mrs. Young made mnny friends In this
city when she nttended the convention
of the National Kdticntlonal Association
here three years ago. Those who heard
her speak were icadlly convinced of her
general ability, and It was easily seen
that sho was a woman who would not
have her plans set aside, especially by
politicians.
Otto T. Mallery, who takes a prominent
pait In the work of the Public Education
Association, said, "The administration of
Mrs. Klla Flagg Young has been tho most
successful of any In many years and has
been of great value as a stimulus and
encouragemsnt along educational lines to
other cities."
