IT THE
In one of the most unusal of the
ho has startling photodrama in which
he bus appeared, Sessuo Hayakawa,
tho noted Jupaneso actor will bo seen
at the Arcado today and tomorrow in
tho Lasky-Paramount production,
"Tho Jaguar's Claw," by Beatrice C.
do Mille and Leighton Osmun from an
adaptation by Roswell Dague of Wil
liam M. McCoy's story.
As the bandit Hayakawa captures
two American girls and tho young
American oild field manager who is
the bridegroom of one of tho girls
and the brother of tha other one.
Having the three in his . power, El
Jaguar gives the man the right to
tako one of the girls into safety, but
the other must remain with him. The
young American Js at a doss what to
do; whether to leave his young sister
to tho mercy of the bandit, or his bride
of a few days.
How the problem is solved is
brought about in a most str.rtling and
unusual manner. Needless to say a
play of this unusual theme, with Ses
suo Hayakawa as the bandit, abounds
in gripping incidents.
The major portion of the picture
was filmed in the exact locality in
which tho scenes of the story are
laid, the Lasky Company having re
ceived pel-mission from the Mexican
commander who was at that time in
charge to spend several days in the
interior. But they nearly c".usi-d a
breach in neutrality by bringing a
hundred cowboys over the border to

BY W. G. SHEPHER
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
Petrograd, July 16. (By mail) A
brave bank clerk has made himself
the friend of War Minister Kerensky
for life. (
Whpn tho mobs were carrvinfir off
the revolution in Petrograd, the police
stations were fired..
The crowds believine the fires to
have been started by revolutionaries,
joined in the fircmaking with heart
and soul. No one seemed to realize
thut tho records of the Black Hundred
would be of more use in existence
than in a state of ashes. Any at
tempts of souvenir-seeking onlookers
to seize any of the documents from
the bonfires met with resistance from
the crowds, who were urged on to this
by the detectives and provocators.
Kerensky's new friend was in a
crowd around one of the great fires.
Among a batch of books and papers
which he saw dumped into the blaze
was a dossier marked Kerensky. He
seized this and, in spite of the efforts
of the crowd to take it from him, he
mndo a speech that persuaded them
that the Kerensky record ought to be
saved. Though Kerensky, ot that time,
was famous, he was by no means the
idol he has since become.
Recently the bank clerk presented
the dossier to Kerensky. Ia consisted
of several hundred pages and showed
that the secret police had been fol
lowing him night and day for six
months.
I have just received u letter from
L. W. Jeffers, Federal Grain Super
visor, which reads in part as follows:
"In connection with the federal sup
ervision of grain inspection, as pro
vided for in the United States Grain
Standards Act, this office is desirous
of enabling the farmers, warehouse
men and grain dealers to become
familnr with the provisions of the Act
and the rules and regulations pro
mulgated by the Secretary for its en
forcement."
"In order to ussist in this work,
Mr. H. A. Martin, grain supervisee
from this office, will spend the next
ten days in Eastern Oregon, for the
purpose of meeting and talking with
the interested parties. Mr. Martin
will be in Lu Grande Monday, Aug
27th, 'being able to spend the entire
day and evening in your city.'
Arrangements have been made to
hold the meeting at the City Hall in
La Grande at 8 p. m. This is the
best opportunity for local farmers to
learn as to the details of Federal
Grain 'Inspection and ill should make
it a special point to be present as well
as all other parties that are in any
way interested in the grain crops of
the country.
