He loves peace so much that he fights for it! That Is the character of Liah Hen. ley, the part taken by George Walsh in his new William Fox photoplay. "The Mediator."

The turmoil of the mining town troubles him and he endj the strike by beat ing the leader. Then follows a series of encounters between Lish and the leader, In all of which the Mediator's prevailing mo tive Is to keep the peace, when he has licked everybody in the neighbor, hood, he finds the quiet he has sought. He finds something else, too. It is Maggie, the waitress, who had helped him In his schemes. Victor Moore in With THOMAS MEIGHAN, by MARIAN FAIRFAX.

The old adage that an elephant nev. er forgets was demonstrated a few days ago at 'the Lasky studio during the rehearsal of some of the circus scenes of the production of "The Clown," a thrilling photodrama of the sawdust circle in which Victor Moore is to star and which will be seen at the Alta on today only. In order to have everything correct, the Lasky company rented an entire circus for three days. Among the animals was "Bill," a hug's and vicious elephant with a reputation as a "killer." No one was permitted near him and he was used for exhibition purposes only In the audience was one Arthur E. Jameson, an ex-circus acrobat. Jameson chanced to pass near where the elephants were standing, when Bill set up a deafening trumpeting and strained violently at his chains. One of the itrainers asked Jameson to keep out of sight. The former circu man asked the trainers where the present owners secured Bill and wis told that he had been purchased from a bankrupt circus organization ten years ago. As soon as Jameson learned the name of that organiza tion, he walked over to the struggling animal and Bill, with every sign of Joy, reached out his huge trunk and drew Jameson to him. Jameson ex plained to the crowd that he had known Bill In the old days and had chased a fox terrier out of a box car where the dog had the big elephant panic-stricken. Jameson put Bill through a number of tricks and was promptly offered a position by the management and at the conclusion of the day's work, Bill lifted his old friend to his back and trudged hap pily along with the procession. "The Clown" Is a Paramount pro gram release.

Violet Mer sereau, at the Cosy theater Thursda and Friday will interprete the role of the actress thus deserted in the Blue bird photoplay, "The Honor of Mary Blake." That charity stepped in to soothe the poor girl's aching heart meant more to her than careful nurs ing and return to good health. This restored condition followed .the hu man attitude of some of the commu nity who acted In spite of bitter op position from another element of "so ciety" In the town. Thoroughly hu man, entirely natural and consistent Is this story of the stage. Itrhtly-Madp ProdiHtiions to Be Sccii at the Temple Theater "The Gild ed Ca' With Alios Brady Uio First Offering, Princess Honors, the heir appar ent, succeeded to the throne. Baron Stefano, prime minister, was in love with her, but principally loved the crown she wore and the accompany ing power it conveyed. Luckily, yet unluckily his love was not raturned by the princess. With his love spurned the Baron began scheming to overthrow the little king dom and turn it Into a republic with himself as ruler. But there was a Prince Boris who had renounced his title and cast hit lot with the people. Without know ing their real stations In life, the queen and the prince fall in love with each other and the old saying that "love will find a way," their combin ed efforts are too much for Baron Stefano and right triumphs. This Is merely an Inkling of the many intense situations which occur during the tolling of the story of "The Gilded Cage." in which Alice Brady and a specially selected ciut of world stars will appear at the Temple the ater for tonight only. United Staites are as vitally and is d rectly interested as the governments now at war. Their interest, more over, in the means to be adopted to relieve the smaller and weaker poples of the world of the peril of wrong and violence is as quick and ardent as that of any other people or govern ment They stand ready, and even eager, to co-operate In the accom plishment of these ends, when the war Is over, with every Influence and resource at their command. But the war must first be concluded The terms upon which It is to be conclud ed they are not at liberty to smggest. but the president does feel that it is his right and his duty to point out their intimate Interests in its con clusion, lest it should presently be too late to accomplish the greater things which lie beyond its conclu- j sion; lest the situation of neutral na-1 tions. now exceedingly hard to endure j be rendered altogether Intolerable an1 j 1st, more than all, an Injury be dor, civilization itself which can never be atoned for or repaired. AfkH for Definite Terms. "The president, therefore, feels al together Justified in suggesting an immediate opportunity for a compar ison of views as to the terms which must precede those ultimate arrange ments for the peace of ithe world which all desire, and In which the neutral nations, as well as those at war, are ready to play their full re sponsible part. If the contest must continue to proceed towards unde fined ends by slow attrition until the one group of belligerents or the other is exhausted; if million after million of human lives must continue to be offered up until on the one side or the other there is no more to offer; If resentments must be kindled that can never cool and despairs engender, d from which there can be no recov ery', hopes of peace and of the will ing concert of free peoples will bi rendered vain and idle. "The life of the entire world hmj been profoundly arrea ed. Every part of the great family of mankind has felt the burden and terror of this un precedented contest of arms. No na tion in the civilized world can be 'ai.l in truth to stand out to its Influence er to be safe againt its disturbing ef fects. And yet the concrete objects for which it is being waged have nev er been definitely sated. is Not Pr4OHiiig Peace. "The leaders of the several bellig erents have, as has been said, stated those objects In general terms. But stated In general terms, they seem the same on bath sides. Never yet have the authoritative spokesmen of either side avowed the precise ob jects which would, If attained, satisfy them and their people that the war had been fought out The world ha-' been left to conjecture what definite results, what aotual exchange ol runrantees. wha,' polit'cal exchange ol guarantees, what political or terr. to- creasing longing. He believes that the spirit in which he speaks and the ob jects which he seeks wll Ibe under stood by all concerned, and he confi dently hopes for a response which will bring a new light into the affairs of the world."
