Fit for continuance of his militurly preparedness stumping tour after a strenuous day yesterday, President Wilson arose early, and hui breakfast with Mrs. Wilson at 8 o'clock. After seeing a number of vis itors at his hotel, he reft shortly be fore 10 o'clock for the Bock Island station, destined for another full day. His next goal is Dcs Moines, with rear platform speeches at Joliet, Ot tawa, Hock Island, Moline, Davenport, Iowa City, Cirinclle mid Newton. Tho president last night delivered here one of the most Important speech es of his political career, abounding in pointed paragraphs, of which some of the more prominent were: "The American navy is ready for war, but the American army is scarcely sufficient for the requirements of peace time." "This war was brought on by rulers, not by peoples." "Law has broken down." "We may have to assert tho.se prin ciples of right and humanity at any time." "Tho force of American public opin ion is not going to stop the war." "I did not come nny from Wash ington because I had the least misgiv ing as to what the United States was going to do but that yon might have from my lips the assurance of tllo absolute necessity that these things (preparedness) should bo done, thoroughly clone, and done very soon." "It is probably a fortunate circum stance that America has been cried awake by those voices of the disturbed and reddened night when fire sweeps sullenly from continent to continent." At the same time, he declared that the nation must prepare itself for pos sibilities ahead, and must lie ready to maintain justice on this continent. He culled it false that America has remain ed nloof from the conflict because of money to be made from the struggle. A disguised Austrian arrested while trying to see the president last night caused a temporary stir. The president posed for movie opera tors in front of his hotel before depart ing, but Mrs. Wilson tucked herself into a corner of their limousino and did not give them even a slanting shot. Mounted officers kept back the crowds! The president's train arrived at 10 o'clock. Previously n few enthusiasts broke through the guard of secret serv ice men at the train and cheered the executive.

I.ederer has uncovered a "movie" hero who does not hnve to, resort to being doubled or camera faked, in order to register tho real : "minch." This violator of all movie co-eds breathes in tho person of Charles Trowbridge, leading juvenile of Broud way fame, who is being featured in the forthcoming World Film release, "The Siren's Song." Being thrown from the upper deck of an ocean liner into a choppy sea is no mean risk for a profes sional daredevil. When the time came for tho over board thrill, the captain of the liner refused absolutely to allow the stunt, saying it meant certain death, for which he, as master of the ship, declin ed to be responsible. Tersuasion was useless, and delay only increased the tension. The actors were anxious to have it over with. Af ter a terrific fist fight on deck, nnd at a given signal from the director, in vio lation of all ship's rules, Trowbridge was hurled headlong over the side into the sea. Immediately upon hearing the cry "man overboard," the captain nrrcs? ed the director and put hi in in irons for disobeying his orders. Tho passengers, too, believing it real, mado a threatening Tush for him ,but tho sailors', quickly realizing what might follow, hustled him below. It was only after Trowbridge had been taken from the sen in an e xhanst ed condition, and the boat that picked him up had returned, that the director was given his freedom. This great picture will be shown nt tho Bligh today nnd tomorrow. Tacoma Lawyer Says Juries Are Packed Tacoma, Wash., Feb. I. Attorney A. O. Burmeister, who has represented a large portion of those persons arrested I here since the tirst ot the yenr tor vio lations of the prohibition law, today charged that the justico court juries are packed with W. C. T. U. members, be fore whom it is impossible to obtain a fair trial. As a result, Burmeister said that a mnpjority of tho cases will be tnken on appeal to the superior court, where the system of jury summoning assures that a jury cannot be packed. "The justice court juries strangely resemble a cold card deck," Burmeister said. "I know that one of the prohi bition committees furnished nt least "S3 per cent of the names of JV. C.
