; USEFUL CHRISTMAS GIFTS
"These times of high living cost should
do one good thing, at least, this holi
day season. In the attempt to give
truly practical presents we should be
come better acquainted. Nothing really
"frivolous, nothing useless should form
any part of our giving and it Rhould
be our earnest study to learn what is
wanted by th friends whom we would
remember. Not that we should confine
,'our gifts to the strictly utilitarian,
nor to articles without beauty. By
: no means. In many cases it Js beauty

Nor would such an offer offend Aunt

ROUND ROBIN
SIGNING

An investigation has been ordered by

Colonel Vollrath, commanding the
Eighth Ohio, reported to General Bell
today the incident of the "round robin."
General Bell denied that he had
summoned any officers in connection
with the case.
"I'll take action against the guards
if such an Instrument exists," said
General Bell, "because it Is absolutely
without justification. Two regular
medical officers who Inspected every
thing reported conditions good. I am
told by officers of the Kighth Ohio
that some men, through their own
carelessness ahd Inefficiency of the
commander of Company G, became 111.
In the "round robin" which the of
ficials are Investigating it is said that
the signers blame the negligence of
the officers for the dath of Rodney
Lapp several days ago rroni pneumonia
and for other cases of illness.
Reports that Lieutenant Sam Col?
and Private Robert Dixon are being
held In custody in connection with the
letter, are being investigate by Gen
eral Bell.

Photoplay Is Thrilling.
Hi
OW a desert Island in the South
seas took the bigotry out of a
preacher and the flippancy out of
a dance-hall girl is tbe theme of a
melodramatic photoplay entitled "A
Gamble in Souls," which opened at the
Columbia yesterday. William Des
mond plays the preacher, and Dorothy
Dalton is seen as the dance-hall girl.
The photography is excellent. There
are many excellent scenes, and espe
cially good Is a thrilling representa
tion of a steamer sinking at see.
Mr. Desmond as the ultra-sanctl-
monlous sky pilot lays It on with a
brush, and rather overdoes the pray
ing and 'narrow, attitude. Probably the
story calls for it, however.
Life on the island together makes a
man out of the minister and a real
woman out of tbe girl. When a third
person comes on the scene, washed
ashore from the wreck of a small boat,
the minister shakes off his Shell of su
perstition, fights for the girl and wins
her. Having found their love, it is to
be presumed that they live an Ideal ex
istence forever and a day afterward on
their island.
A Keystone comedy, featuring Joan
Ita Hansen, and a scenic. "In the Hang
ing Glacier Country." complete the bill.

with color and reality this sternly
Ironical comment on one of the rarer
phenomena of life. Two large audi
ences at the Baiter yesterday wept and
felt sorry for the girl and then went
away dissatisfied with it all.
Less frequent are these sex plays
nowadays and it is gratifying to note
that the Alcasars are preparing for
next week a story of adventure with
out lust and a love's rivalry without
stain.
The story is of the young girl whos
foot slipped once. Lacking the cour
age to tell her husband-elect, she mar
ried him and lived a year under his
roof before he knew the truth. Then
came the big split and the dose oi
poison.
Ruth Gates does some of the best'
emotional acting ever seen here in the
role of Ethel Toscanl, and Albert Mc
Qovern's work Is strong and decisive.
Lora Rodgers lives up to a great role
are Mrs. Dole, widow of the artist witn
whom the girl had had. her "affair"
This widow comes back to haunt and
to avenge. Charles Compton and Flor
ence Darling have cheery roles, while
Will Lloyd as the artist is sincere and
convincing. Ruth Lecheler as Busari
the maid, makes a cameo of thai
usually flat-toned part.

Another Winning Bill. -
Colorful music and excellent comelv
at the Orpheum this week Is furnished
by favorites that seem even to grow
more popular. The highest point in
the bill is, of course, when Nellie V.
Nichols revives the old story of her
Irtsh-Yiddish pedigree, "Will Some
body Name My Nationality?" What is
winning in dear Nellie is an over
bubbling personality full of sincerity.
Her new contribution to vaudeville is
mighty clever Impersonation.
Clever ensemble is the musical skit.
"The Volunteers," in which Billy
Cripps selects a quartet from the au
dience, orchestra and stase. The sing
ing is wonderful. The Rube is back
again for about the seventh time.
Devotees of vaudeville know Jimmie

Oliver Twist Remarkable Film.
If Dickens were able to see his "Oli
ver Twist" portrayed on a screen from
cover to cover at the Peoples this

as were a succession of admiring audi
ences yesterday atthe remarkable rep
resentation. Marie Doro takes the title
role, and an appealing little Oliver she
makes. Hobart Bosworth is vividly
villainous as Bill Sykes. Tully Mar
shall essays the part of Fagin and
comes nigh excelling Nat Goodwin s
assumption of the character. Nancy,
the girl in the book, who gathers all
the sympathy of the readers, and who
