Two Lively Bouts
Special to The Telegraph
Philadelphia, March 31. —Leo Houck
had for an opponent last night at the
Kalrinount A. C. A 1 Greaber, of Pitts
burgh, who replaced Knockout Baiter,
of Wilmington, originally scheduled
lor the wind-up. Baker was kept from
appearing by a severe attack of grip.
Greaber was game, but he lacked an
adequate offense. The most he could
do was to rain at Houok a succession
of swings in the vain hone of getting
over a knockout. Only a couple of
these blows landed, and they did no
harm to the Lancaster lad.
Houck fought an intelligent battle,
Constantly forcing the milling and
landing hard and clean with jabs, lie
won all the way, though Greaber came
back cheerfully for his punishment,
nnd was strong at the finish. In the
semlwind-up Krankie Houck, a
brother of Leo. lost to Tommy Sharp.

MAXIM SILENCER USED ON STAGE
In "Within the Law," Bayard Veil
ler's successful new drama of the min
ute which The American Play Company
will present at the Majestic this even
ing there is represented on the stage
for the first time in theatrical history
a murder by pistol In which there is
not the slightest sound at the dis
charg* of the bullet nor the thinnest
veil of smoke when the trigger of the
revolver is pressed. This unusual
spectacle is made possible by the use
of smokeless powder and a Maxim sil
encer—perhaps the most revolutionary
invention in the history of firearms.
These diabolically ingenious instru
ments of modern warfare add greatly
to the murder mystery the police are
called upon to solve in the play and
incidentally provide a foundation for
the "big scene"—which for suspensive
interest and nerve-gripping thrill, has
not been equalled in any dramatic of
fering of tlie past decade.—Advertise

THE NEWEST AND BEST OF WAR
PICTURES COMING
Beginning Monday, April 5, there
will be presented at the Majestic Thea
ter for a series of twelve perform
ances, seven reels of war films which
were received in New York less than
a fortnight ago and were asembled
within the last six days. They are pre
sented under the auspices of the Pub
lic Ledger and Evening Ledger, of
Philadelphia.
In making these pictures four motion
picture camera men lost their lives.
While all the films were censored by
the various European Governments be
fore they were shipped to this country
they remain the most remarkable col
| lection of war photographs ever made.
They are peculiarly comprehensive,
embodying intimate photographs of
action throughout the whole war zone
from western Belgium to East Poland.
Particularly interesting are pictures
of the terrific artillery combats, lengthy
reels showing the Kaiser, the Crown
Prince and the Kaiserin at the front,
pictures of cavalry charges such as
have never before been thrown upon a
screen, naval pictures, pictures made
in the trenches and photographs of von
. Hindenburg in his famous operations
j againts tile Russians.
: Tills is the first great war that was
lever motion pictured and these reels
1 about to be presented in this city afford
a correct visualization of the greatest
cataclysm in history. The Public and
Evening Ledger are to be thanked for
this opportunity whereby residents of
the principal cities of this country are
offered a chance to see exactly what is
going on. During the engagement in
this city there will be two performances
daily and the services of a competent,
lecturer, recently returned from the
front, will add interest to the exhibi
tion.—Advertisement.

In "The Black Box" a criminal pits

| Instalment number one. "The Apart
; ment House Case," introduces Lord
John Ashleigh. of Dorset. England. Lord
and Lady Ashleigh have decided to send
. their only child, Ella, to New York, for
1 the season.
j As a final gift. Lord Ashleigh pre
sents his daughter with the famous
'Ashleigh diamond necklace. Tlicv send
Lenora, Ella's personal attendant, and
lan MacDougal, butler, to accompanv
l the girl to New York. Sis month* pas's
| delightfully for tho young Englishwo
i man. She returns from the opera one
night, saying good-night happily to the
Raleighs, who have apartments at the
same hotel.
Next morning the hotel is aroused by
Lenora's wild shrieks. The hallmati,
rushing in. finds Ella's body upon the
lloor and the famous diamonds miss
ing. Thcyy call in the services of San
ford Quest.
By means of hypnotism Quest draws
from Lenora a confession that the
i crime was committed by MacDougal.
Quest turns the girl loose, after com
j manding her to return to his study
I with the jewels at 7 o'clock thai nighl.
i She joins MacDougal in their rendez
vous. Quest has tracked her and. bv
means of a trap, is thrown bv Mac-
Dougal into the cellar. Lenora's eyes
suddenly fall on the clock hands which
I point to seven. Dazed, hatless, she
takes up the Jewels, going straight to
I his study.
J But Quest is not done for. He has a
little Instrument attached by wires to
capsules of anishyldite, the latest ex-
I plosive known to science.
Quest escapes and returns to his of-
Ifiee to find Lenora already there. Seeing
she is an excellent subject, he ventures
another experiment. Before a mirror he
seats the girl and puts her in a state of
I hypnosis. A paper-thin steel band Is
I fitted nround her temples. This band Is
connected through coils with a mirror
by a fine wire, through which runs a
charge of electricity. The hypnosis in
duces perfect mental concentration.
"Lenora, send your mind out to find
MacDougal and see what ho Is doing,"
I Quest orders.
; Anxiously, Quest watches the mirror.
MacDougal enters, confers with the
-•-oprietor and is directed to a room.
In the little attic MacDougal throws
down his hat and swears bv all the gods
he knows to bo evru with Lenora.
A week passes. MacDougal threatens
Lenora in a note and Quest decides to
draw him at once Into the trap. Quest
and his men apparently leave the house.
MacDougal creeps in. The next Instant
the lights flash up. MacDougal Is
handcuffed.
Lord Ashleigh arrives, to find Ills
daughter's slayer in the law's hands.
And down In South American Pro
fessor Edgar Ashleigh, antliropollglst.
a twin brother of Lord John, is caring
for his fever-stricken servant. John
Craig. Cunningly waiting till the sci
entist has gone from the tent, the ser
vant feels under his pillow and brings
out a small black box. With glazed
eyes staring, he fondles the box and
then hides it once more. What Is In
the "Black Box," what stery does it
hide, what crime does it conceal?— A
dvertisement.

THREE PHYSICIANS
FOR HHHA FIGHT
Cuban Authorities to Take No
Chances For Serious Accident
in Monday's Battle
Havana, March 31.—There has been
no change in the betting on the out
come of the tight, Johnson remaining
the favorite at about 3 to 1.
The pugilists wero examined and
measured by physicians again last
night. Each man is said to bo in
splendid condition and regard to or
gans and muscles. Ono doctor said
Johnson had the smallest heart of
any man lie had ever examined. These
latest measurements show that the
champion is to be heavier and more
muscled than he was at Reno in 19X0;
nevertheless, Willard is the bigger man
in almost every particular.
The Cuban government officials are
determined to take no chances of a
serious accident to a fight between
such big men. They have appointed
three physicians to attend at the ring
side. They will have oxygen and other
stimulants to revive the lighters in
case of any unusual knockout or a
fall. They say, however, that they will
not interfere with the proper termina
tion of the battle according to the
code of the prize ring. The relatively
gigantic size of the pugilists evidently
has impressed Cuban officials with the
idea that the struggle of next Monday
will be unusually savage.
