SHERRY'S
French Canadian Dialect Artist Well
Recommended
Charles Zueblin of Boston found
much to admire iiLo Grande. In his
speech yesterday afternoon which
many contend was one of the leading
lecture features of the current Chau
tauqua, he brought a message of
learning in "city beautiful." Some
called it visionary, and some main
tain it was too many years in advance
of thie times, but of such come reform
and improvement. In the first place
he found much to admire, and some
tilings to criticise in this city. In
addition to that which was quoted of
him in the Observer yesterday he al
luded to many features locally. He
approved of the city government; of
the city's plan to remove garbage but
disapproved of the manner of its ulti
mate disposal; he liked the location
of the churches, the court house and
the playgrounds for childien; he ad
vocated still more playground; ihe ad
vocated, as a whole, tne parking sys
tem and Riverside Park claiming it
to be not too far from the city but ad
vocated better roads to it; he ap
proved of tha paving done; he advo
cated municipal ownership of public
utilities. Because he is a man cap
able of designing Oakland, Los An-1
geles and other large cities, his
words carried weight, and albeit ;
some tihincs he advocated were ex-1
pensive, his address ranks high in
popular favor. Those who voiced their
disapproval of his argument were in
deed limited.
A BIT OK ACTING WHICH HITS
HOME.
Vivian Martin in the Fox Feature
"A Modern Thelma." v
Olaf Guldmar (William 11 Tooker)
and his family, chief of which is
Thelma (Vivian Martin), the beauti
1'bl maid of Norway, and his servant
Sigurd (Albert Ricardi), a character
part of unusual force. The outdoor
scenes of the north land are shown
correctly as well as the native cos
tumes and customs of the primitive
land of the long night.
In this illustration of the quaint
home life of the northland Miss Mar
tin, as the daughter, and Mr. Tooker's
excellent character acting as master
of the ihoHise produced some most
charming scenes. Thu film from end
to end radiates with freshness and an
exactness of detail which makes the
spectator forget that he is living in
the most modern country of tAe. most
progressive century. All this was
taken only by great pains and hard
ships in an isolated mountain place in
Georgia which was the only section of
the American continent where tha ex
act Scandinavian scenery could be
found. At Sherry's today.
GERMAN SUES FOR MILLION
Philadelphia, June 27. Relatives of
the late Robert Coleman, of this city,
a power for many years in the iron
ore and steel industry, were startled
when they learned that a man named
Dr. Guide Taurcn, or Hinkel, had be
gun a contest at Ixsbanon, Pa., against
the will of the late Rosalie Parent
Coleman, widow of Robert Coleman.
The contestant asserts that he is a
son of the dead woman and thnt she
bequeathed her estates in this coun
try to him, but that she disinherited
Mm because he joined the German
army as a surgeon at the outbreak
of the war. There is a hint that the
physician had been adopted subse
quent to Mr. Coleman's death.
The holdings comprising the estate
consist largely of ore banks at Corn
wall, near Lebanon, which have . been
in the Coleman family for genera
tions and are estimated to be worth
$1,000,000.
The beneficiaries under the new will
are J. Coleman Drayton, of New
York, a widely-known sportsman and
hunter; Renald George De Repter, a
cousin of Mrs. Coleman, and Camille
Besson, a friend of the testator. The
heirs are all residents of this country.
Much mystery attaches to the new
claimant, who represents himself as
Mrs. Coleman's son. Mr. Coleman
was an uncle of the late Robert Cole
man Drayton, a banker, who died sev
eral months ago and whose family
lives at 1715 Locust treet, and B.
Dawson Coleman, who for many
years was the executive factor in the
Coleman interests in Lebanon county.
Mrs. Robt. Coleman Drayton said that
she did not understand that Robert
Coleman's widow had been married
more than oice, and that the identity
of the man who represented himself
as her son was a puzzle to the family.
Mr. Coleman, according to his rel
atives, began to live abroad about 30
years ago. He married Rosalia Par
ent in Paris. Several times Mr. and
Mrs. Coleman visited this country.
In the course of these visits none of
the relatives ever .learned that Mrs.
Coleman 'had been married previously,
ii il.i nl.
nor was vnere any aut-snun mui. one
nad a son.
Dr. Tauern, or Hinkel, as he lias
often been known, is a native of Frei
burg, Germany. He declares in his
petition that Mrs. Coleman, his moth
er, died in Paris, April 8, 1915. Her
will showed that as the document was
drawn originally, Doctor Tauern, or
Hinkel had been made the sole heir to
all her estates in this country.
' However, a codicil had been added
on February 211, 1915, which cut off
the physician entirely. ; He was dis-

inherited in terse language:
'On account of the war I disinherit
my son, Guido Hinkel."
Dr. Hinkel asserts that his mother
was intensely French, as was shown
by her bequest of her French proper
ties to her beloved city of Paris. He
says he was a German subject and
was called to the colors. He obeyed
und thus brooked his mother's anger.
