All of these scenes and many others are wonderfully, graphically and interestingly portrayed. ''The Spoilers" is a wonderful picture. Over 144, 000 distinct photographs were taken covering 14,500 feet of film which was carefully reduced down to 9, 000 that takes two hours and fifteen minute3 to run. YOU WILL SEE what thousands of others have seen. In Los Angeles one hundred thousand saw the picture in two weeks. In San Francisco thousands were turned away tie first week of iU run there. Return engagements have been played in every city of any size in the United States. YOU WILL SEE what money can do when com petent men are told to go ahead and produce the greatest picture that America has ever known.

Mr. Famum asked Mr. Santachi when they were ready to play the fight scene which occurs in Struve's office. Mr. Santschi replied that ho was not and at the same time asked Mr. Farnum if he wanted, to make it a real fight. Mr. Farnura replied that lie was very anxious to, so they went at it with the result that you will seo one of the most realistic en counters that was ever put in a play. A hattcry of five cameras was trained on the pair and not an incident was lost. A whole mining town was bought and blown to pieces, thirty vessels were chartered, in fact every thing was done to make this one of the most realistic pictures ever staged. The taming of a primitive man by a sweet, inno cent girl h the hig cmx of this romance tliat is car ried out with simple, sympathetic deftness, and the contrast tatween Cherry Mallotte and Helen Dexter is another tremendously fascinating force in the story. Kathlyn Williams never did as conscientious work or reach the heights of success she has in "The Spoil er" as the gnod-hearted idol of the camp. . Jessie Eycton as Helen Dexter carries you along with her, heart and soul. When 6he makes the leap from tli topmost deck of the 6hip to the waters of the Bay, swims to the dark pier, one sees decisive ac tion that makes you forget that it is not real.

No riace even in boss ridden For Politics, c o m m u n ities and states. In St. Louts there has for some years been an un derstanding under which the demo crats have nominated one half the membership on the school board and the republicans have been left to sup ply the remaining members. In this way partisan control of the board has been avoided. Just now, however, there is a lively rumpus over the effort of the democratic machine which controls affairs to place on the board a man named Rellley whose chief qualification for the position seems to be he gave $1500 to the dem ocratic city campaign fund. . The republican chairman vigorous ly objects to this effort as a violation of the spirit of the agreement under which the school board selections have been made In the' past The Post-Dispatch, the leading paper of t. Louis and a very Independent dem ocratic journal, says the republican chairman is right In the matter and giving him cordial support to the tr.d he may keep Rellley off the board. Who wlU say such Is not a proper view to take? Do not the schools have difficulties enough at the best without being dragged into the mire of politics? - t The effort of our state department to induce both England and Germany to admit to the dif The Hole of Ute ferent belligerent Good Samaritan, c o u n t r It food stuffs for use by the civilian population Is a move that deserves to succeed.' The women and children and grandfathers of Europe are not at war and they deserve something bet ter than starvation. It Is enough that they must sacrifice their sons and husbands and brothers upon the gory altar of the war god. When this government seeks as It does to get food admitted to the civil. lans in the war countries it is work ing along creditable lines. This course is Impartial because the bene fits will be for Briton and German aike. It Is an appeal for humanity and Is prompted by the same spirit of kindness that sent the Christmas ship with toys and clothing to the children of the stricken continent. May this country continue its efforts In the role of the Good Samaritan. While we are doing that we are not taking sides and we keep In position to be of ser vice to the world when prostrated by their losses the fighting nations turn to a disinterested friend to lift them from the bloody pit. Through a strange oversight, no provision for regimental bands seems to have been made Music and War. for the new army Kitchener is re cruiting for England. Himself the embodiment of silence and lack of emotion, what the British troops might suffer through the absence ot musical accessories does not seem to have occurred to him, although it ap pears his long military experience would have taught him the value of music In war. The oversight Is to be remedied, It Is reported, largely by public sub scription. Full bands are to be pro vided In some Instances. But the more frequent arrangement is to be simply for a fife and drum corpa Anyone who has listened to the stir ring melody thrown out by this com bination does not need any elabor ation to know the part it may play in the fighting. It is curious how the taste of the average soldier runs, when it comes to the music which is to supply him inspiration by which to fight and, perhaps, die. In the Spanish-American war none of the more or less stately "national hymns'' were in vogue. Instead, that rollicking bit of "rag," "There'll Be a Hot Time In the Old Town Tonight" furnished the "pepper" for most of the fights of consequence. In the British-Boer war they used to hum, while ramming down cannon ball, "Here's Another Lump of Sugar for the Bird" or "A Little Bit Off the Top." It is said that in the Far Eastern war the Rus sians did sme of their best fighting to the tune of a nondescript ballad, the substance of which was a con stant reiteration of "Ivan's in the Garden Picking Cabbages.'' What the Japs chose we do not know, but we may well Imagine that when they went Into battle It was to the lilt of some saucy tune rather than a digni fied nstlonal "anthem." The "Tip- perary" of the present war Is, course, familiar to every one. Music la as Inseparable from war as powder and shot or the sword. The two are firmly associated in the pop ular mind and in the mtnd of the sol dier. It Is easy to imagine that In some of the great European battles when men come to close grips, the lure of music is forgotten. But in the preliminaries, the working up of "esprit" which is so Important a part of warfare, It Is a recognized factor. Atlanta Constitution.
