peace negotiations with the IFcderal

There preceded him a story that an

President Gilmore denied knowledge of
any such move. _
FRANK INORANSTOPS WELLS
Bombardier's Tender Jaw Again Proves
His Undoing When Fight
ing Well
London, March 30.—Frank Moran,
the American heavyweight, who hails
from Pittsburgh, and who lost to
Jack Johnson in a 20-round bout in
Paris on June 27, 1914, knocked out
the English champion, Bombardier
Wells, in the tenth round before 4,500
spectators in the London Opera House
last nigh,t. The match was for 20
rounds and a purse of $3,500.
Moran sent a right to Wells' jaw
and the English champion fell flat on
his face in the ring as if dead.
The crowd, which had watehed
Wells' clever boxing enthusiastically,
seemed stunned; then cheers burst
forth, and Wells' second lifted his
prostrate form and carried it over the
ropes.
In the first round Moran outfought
and outgeneraled the Englishman, but
in the second Wells seemed to regain
his nerve and from then until the
knockout 1 ought the cleaner and more
scientific battle, although Moran's
Wows seemd to do the greater damage.
The second round went to Wells on
points; in the third honors were
but Wells had the advantage in the
'fourth. Both men were bleeding over
the left eye.
Again in the fifth Wells' superiority
was marked, but Moran shaded him in
the sixth, and before the eigtfth round
was over Wells was bleeding pro
fusely and appeared to be tired, while
Moran was -smiling and confident.
In the tenth Wells slipped and 'Mor
an put a vicious right to the jaw, which
sent Wells sprawling 011 his back. He
lay until the count of six, and then rose
unsteadily, while the crowd roared. As
Wells got to his leet Moran sent an
other lightning right to the jaw, and
the English man took the count.

FIGHTERS WORK HARD
Johnson and Willard Getting Near to
Their Desired Weight
Havana, March 30.—Jack Johnson
and Jess Willard continued yesterday
their training routine to fit themselves
for the heavyweight championship
fight in which they are to engage one
week hence. Both men worked liarrd
■in their training quarters before large
crowds and also on the road.
Yesterday morning Willard went
over the road, jogging and sprinting
for five miles. He did not expect to
do any work to-day. He will make his
final spurt Wednesday and then will
gradually let down in his training. He
says he expects to enter the ring at 233
pounds, so he has six pounds to take
off.
Johnson did six miles on the road
yesterday morning, running and walk
ing. Yesterday afternoon, in the Stadi
um, he punched the bag, threw the
medicine ball and then went eight fast
rouuils with Bob Armstrong, Coliu Beil
and another sparring partner. Despite
his hard work Johnson showed no signs
of exhaustion,
' The big black fighter is heavier and
seemingly is slower than he was at
Reno five years ago, but he says he is
.satisfied with his condition. He gives
his weight as 225 pounds, and says he
expects to "dry out" an additional
five or seven pounds.

"Within the Law"
As the attraction at the Majestic
to-morrow, afternoon and evening,
Selwyn and company will present Bay
ard Vciller's thrilling new Americau
drama, "Within the Law," of which
local theatregoers have heard and
read a great deal recently because of
the sensational success scored by this
play in New York and Chicago, in
both of which cities it was labeled
by the critics as the "real dramatic
triumph of the year." Its local en
gagement will brim? here an acting
organization of real strength, while
the elaborate scenic adornment of
"Within the Law" amply maintains
the high standard of artistic excel
lence of Selwyn and company, the
producers.
"Within the Law" which exerts
an almost irresistible appeal, is aptly
described as a drama of daring in
which the heroine is forced to begin
warfare upon the law to protect her
self from its machinations. Mary
Turner, the central character, is false
ly accused of theft of goods from the
establishment in which she is employ
ed, and sentenced to three years im
prisonment. No amount of protest, no
amount of logical, obviously truthful
defense sa*es her. iShe serves her time.
She tries to support herself honestly
afterward but the police harass and
"hound" her. When they have forced
her outf of several places by recalling
her imprisonment, the ,girl, in despera l
tion, defies them and proclaims that
as they have compelled her ifi a
career of crime she w.ill beat them,
and stav "within the law," too.

At the Orpheum
Henrietta Crosmnn heads a long and
varied list of Keith stars at the Or
pheum this week, the whole combining
into a fine array of attractions. Names
like Swor and Mack, Mr. and Mrs.
McGreevy, Milo, and several others,
form a great setting for the dramatic
Miss Crosinan, whose play
let is strongly pathetic, timely and
excellently enacted. "Thou Shalt Not
Kill" is .its theme, and with a
story that emphasizes a mother's love,
its denounces war in stirring lines and
emotional situations. Swor and Mack
are here again too, this time with
nearly all new comedy material. What
ever this team of comedians brings
forth may be depended upon for being
all wool "and a yard wide. Their black
face comedy is a scream from start to
finish.
Another continuous laugh is in or
der when Mr. and Mrs. McGreevy, the
rural musicians, come on the boards.
Such rural cut-ups haven't been seen
here in moons and their take-off is so
realistic that it's artistic. Milof with
the question point, please, must be
seen to be appreciated. Just Milo?
must suffice here, the smiles will come
with the And there are three
or four other splendid acts and all of
them are varied and interesting.

At the Colonial
It would take twelve jitney busses
thirty-eight days to make a trip like
the one that Arthur Lavine and com
pany are presenting at the Colonial
these days called "From Coney Island
to the North Pole" and Hiey make
the whole trip in something like
thirty minutes. And it's doivbtful if
at the termination of the trip, the
places would be as lively and inter
estingl as these. Home girls, sorogs,
gowns, some scenery some fun.
Well it's just about the nicest "big
act" the Colonial has seen. Three
other fine Keith hits are assembled
on the same bill and interesting mov
ing picture features are included in
the performance.—Adv.*
Victoria's Pipe Organ Proves, That
Merit Wins
That merit always wins no matter
in whatever particular line it may be,
lhas been very successfully demonstrat
ed by the crowded houses at the Vic
toria ever since the installation of the
$25,000 'Hope-Jones unit jipe organ or
chestra. It has always been the aim
of the management to make the Vic
toria stand out as the one moving pic
ture theatre that would be up-to-date
and modern in every detail and where
in every detail and Wherein its pa
trons might find rest and comfort as
well as to enjoy tflic highest class silent
dramas under the most favorable con
ditions. This could only be accomplish
ed by the installation of our wonder
ful pipe organ. During the presenta
tion of our motion pictures the operator
of the pipe organ can give each action
its proper tone expression, thus adding
greatly to the pdeasures of film plays.
■By means of its many controls, the
operator can reveal the same sensitive
feeling as an artist can upon his violin,
cello, harp or almost any musical in
strument, regulating the shades of ex
pression at will. In a word, it breathes
the very temperament of the player and
expresses his every musical instinct.

The Begent
"The Ghost Breaker," a Jesse L.
Lasky production, met with great suc
cess at the Regent theatre last even
ing, being another of the splendid
productions secured by the manage
ment in its effort to secure the best
for its patrons.
"The Ghost Breaker" is truly re
markable as a drama in that it brings
all the dash and spirit of adventure
ordinarily associated with the "ro
mantic" school of plays into the sur
roundings of modern lif<». It supplies
the love Sor excitement which is a
natural attribute of all amusement
seekers, and at the same time it is so
localized that it contrives to be con
vincing in spite of the most extra
ordinary incidents and the most un
looked-for complications.
The action of the play travels from
the "old worldof Princesses and
Dukes to the modern "new world" ot'
an American blood filed; and then it
travels back again to Spain and the
haunted castle and the lost treasurer.
New York City detectives, retainers
of the ancient and noble Aragon fam
ily, pretended ghosts and real cut
throats, all mingle and play their parts
in this most enthralling tale.
On the one hand, take the lost jew
els of a noble Spanish family; on the
other, take a Southern fued between
two American families; introduce a
gallant young American and a perfect
ly adorable Spanish Princess who most
urgently needs to be saved from the
wicked plots of an evil Duke—ami
one has at a glance the elements of a
truly unusual entertainment.
