German Crown Prince Praises Valor of Troops; Can Win With God Amsterdam, Jan. s.—The German crown prince, in a New Year's order to his army, praises Its valor in the battles of the year just closed. Tho order, as reproduced in the Dussel dorf Nachrichten reads: "The year 1917 has gone down In to history and with it the deeds of arms of my army. The French army stood ready on the Aisne and in the Champagne to deliver a great, de cisive blow. An overwhelming su periority of men, arms and ammu nition was counted upon to force a victory for the enemy. "The assault sanguinarily collap sed .before your faithfulness and bravery.

Field High Greater Minstrels this Standard season, is said to be a Afterpiece regular machinegun of varied effects. It is oper atic in scope with a background of rpectacle, and yet presents a continu ous swirl of fun. The comic situa tions arise from the efforts of an In ventor to induce the blackfaced come dians to try out a bullet-proof skin he has devised for use in battle. This humorous strain is interwoven with a plot-of stirring action, in which the natives of the tropics resent tho pres ence of the American soldiers and connive at violence. They invoke tho aid of their mountain deities,-who re spond by producing volcanic erup tions. pictured In impressive scenic effects and expressed in some impos ing musical selections. The first scene of the extravaganza shows the volcano in full blow, the second scene represents "A Home in Honolulu," and the third scene "A Fete Night, in the Court Square in Honolulu in Honor of Uncle Sam's Army and Navy." Hawaiian numbers, with the exotic charm peculiar to them, are rendered in this setting. Exciting patriotic tableaux mark the finish, when an American battleship is seen meeting a submarine. The Ü boat loses, and the man-of-war hoists the American flag; while song an nounces to the spectator the "Free dom of the Seas," and the "Peace of the World." The Al. G. Field Greater Minstrels will be at the Orpheum, Tuesday evening and Wednesday, matinee and night. The appearance of Wallace Reid in "Nan of Music Mountain," with the showing of the Mack- Doulilc Sennet t comedy, "That Attraction Night," attracted many ot Regent theatergoers to the Re gent yesterday. These pictures will be shown at the local playhouse again to-day. "Nan of Music Mountain" tells a thrilling story of a feud between the outlaw Morgan family and the young of mind, falls desperately in love with the daughter of the leader of the mountaineer who was made manager of the Thief River Stage line because he had nerve and could shoot. Wal lace Reid plays this young fellow, who unfortunately for his own peace Morgan gatig. He lives but to avenge the murder of his father, the shock of whose death had killed hia mother and left him with a birthmark to commemorate his father's tragic death. The mysterious murder and | the long search provide a riddle that all audiences enjoy working out. Without doubt one of the most in tensely human interest pictures ever presented at the "Unknown, 374," popular Victoria and "In the Itnrk" Theater, is the one now being shown, starring winsome June Caprice and entitled "Unknown, 274." The piece takes Its title from the way June is registered at an orphanage after her father has oeen injured so as to lose liis memory and is there after unable to look for her. After being horribly abused at the orphan age she falls Into the bands of vul tures, who try to rob her of her vio lin, the only thing she haa to remem ber her father, and which afterwards is the means of finding him. She has also attracted a millionaire, who even tually marries her and all ends well. "In the Dark" is a typical weatern drama of the early days when men were measured by the speed with which they could tote a gun. Hart scores another success in this power ful picture. For Monday and Tuesday, for the first time In this city, "A Man Without a Country," taken from Ed ward Everett Hale's immortal Ameri can classic, and featuring Florence Laßadle. One of the most successful musical comedies In which Edward Clark and Silvio Ilein have collaborat "Furs ed, will be seen at the Or nnd pheum to-night. Tho piece Prills" Is called "Furs and Frills," and came to this city almost direct from a three months' run at the Plymouth Theater In Boston. "Furs and Frills" is made up of the usual components which constitute a musical comedy; namely, fun and fancy, with jingling music, a host of sprightly show girls and "broilers." effective lighting and scenic devices. It is said alt-o to have what few musi cal comedies of the present day have, a clearly defined plot. Edward Clark, who has written a number of song hits, has outdone himself in this pretty little oddity, among the most successful being: "You Can't Take It With You When You Die," "Does Polly Want Wally?" "Furs and Frills," "This Is My I.uckv Day," "Al ways Tako Mother's Advice," "The Tale of a Coat," and others. A pleasing variety bill Is appearing at the Majestic the last half of this week. Headline honors go At the to Catherine Crawford and Majestic Her Fashion Girls, who are presenting a style show of unusual splendor. To the strains of fascinating music, a half dozen at tractive models cavort about the stage disporting lingerie, evening gowns and wraps, and numerous other things dear to the heart of every woman. A good comedy show surrounds this fashion display.
