Chicago, Feb. 1. 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.

Broadway Juvenile a
"ReaF Daredevil
George W. 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. T. 17.
and church women to sit iu tho liquor
cases."
