ZEROLEN the Standard OH for Motor Cars How Italy Hates Austria Chicago Daily Journal Austria and Italy are at each other's throats. And not for the first time. (Italy has always hated Austria, as the ill-treated small boy hates the school bully. Here is a story from the San Francisco News Age of October 6, lXbb, when Austria still ruled North ern Italy, which gives an odd side light on this hate: "As a proof of Austrian unpopular. ity in Vcnctia, it is related thnt n bal- Irt dancer at Venice, while dancing at the theater there, hnd a boquet thrown her, tied with a ribbon in the Itiilian colors. She immediately kissed the ribbon, which created tremendous enthusiasm among the audience. After the performance she was called to the police office, and sharply reprimanded for this act of patriotism. She excused herself bv savine that in kissing the bouquet she hnd onlv fol lowed the universal custom on such occasions; but the authorities would not accept this excuse; and told cr that another time she should not kiss the bouquet, but tread it underfoot. "Tho following evening another bouquet wns thrown, and tho dancer, in compliance with her instructions, trod it under foot, again amidst fran tic applause. The ribbon around the bouquet was, however, this time not m), green and white, but Muck and yellow the colors of Austria." New Phone Line in Forest Troutlake, Wash., Julv 7.

Warren Kerrigan, matinee idol of a million "picture fans," comes to the Sherry theatre today only in the brilliant Bluebird Photo play, "A . Son of the Immortals," founded on Louis Tracy's story of the ame title, from which Bertram Grasaby has made the scenario. Otis Turner directed . the production for Bluebird and has created a stirring and exciting picture replete with thrilling incidents. In brief the photoplay tells how an American was unexpectedly elevated to a throne, and the democratic man ner in which he conducts the impres sive affairs of the kingdom arouse the indignation of the politicians and the admiration of the populace. Witness ing tneir control passing beyond re call because of the liberal and un usual methods of governing that the Yankee king employs, the militaristic plotters decree that the American king shall be removed through the old-fashioned method of assassination. Then starts a series of exciting and thrilling incidents, in which great mobs ot people participate m various demonstrations. Although tihe plot ters are not able to carry to a suc cessful conclusion their various plans tor tne assassination ot tne kmc events finally shape themselves so that the American is eliminated un der circumstances that bring the five-act feature to a stirring conclu sion. placed upon a throne, in real life, may j not be exactly illustrated in the Blue bird, but the fanciful structure that has been reared for the entertainment of moving picture devotees is well worth while, nevertheless.
