The negroes of Austin assembled
last night at the Wesley Chapel Meth-
odist Church in one of the largest DA-
triotte rallies that has been held in
Travis county. This rally was worked
up by Kev- J. N. C. Scoggin, who
in Austin, doing patriotic work and
putting on a thrift stamp campaign
among the negroes.
The gathering was addressed by
Mayor Wooldridge and Councilman
Anthony, as well as a number of negro
speakers An honor flag was pre-
sented to the negroes for their part In
the work of raising the third liberty
loan.
Rev. Scoggin was the main speaker
of the evening. He pointed out that
the negroes, aa a race, had always
been loyal and assured that they would
remain so. He asked for encourase-
ment of the negro in the war work.
"If you will but cheer us, we have
1,500,000 Mack men, every one of whom
will die with their faces toward Ber-
lin. We will not hesitate; we will not
falter, but we will give you a new
chapter in history which will be an
inspiration to generations yet un-
born," said the speaker.

The Palladium is a vaudeville the-
ater exactly like any vaudeville the-
ater in America—music and perform-
ance— excepting that smoking is al-
lowed in any seat. We took seats and
watched the show until Mr Merson’s
set.
In the meantime Mr. Burke whie-
pered to mo that he was a great ad-
mirer of American magazines, which
he considered superior to English magt
arines. He said that America leads
in short stories--that there was no
question of this. Hr believed this was
because authors had to work harder
in America. In England an editor or-
ders one short story or a half dozen
from an author nnd he has to buy
whatever is delivered to him. Noth-
ing, or very little. Is written on spec-
ulation. It is considered beneath the
digKfty of a sucecestul author to

Mr. Merson now appeared as a bur-
lesque pirate and sang a-song about
confiscating a wench. He is very,
very funny. When he had bowed for

boiled eggs and toast. Captain Ket-
tle, a celebrated conjuror enjoying a
week’s rest In ondon, came to visit
Mr. Merson and spent two hours of
his rest period doing card and coin
tricks that were nothing short of
marvelous.
It was dinner time when we left
the theater. "I am afraid I haven’t
shown you any of quaint London,"
Mr. Burke apologised. "Como tomor-

Director William P. S. Earle has
been especialy happy in his settings,
especially those of the Irish village,
the homes nnd the home life of the
peaeants and lace makers being most
faithfully pictured. The story is by
Paul West and the scenario by George
H. Plympton.
Ann live with her aunt aral her
blind grandmother, helping support
them by making lace when not at mis-

tirely by Lord Killowen. The real
master, however, is Harvey Dowd, col-
lector of rents, and a mean, graspi;
man, whose pleasure is further oppres-
sion of the people.
Killowen plans to visit America to
pay court to one Eileen Murtagh and
visits his village He rescues Ann
from the unwelcome attentions of
Dowd's son Peter, but she does not
know hie identity. Peter collects the
rents, obtaining receipts from all but

sie run away determined to find and

Befriended by a bagpiper and later
by a kind-hearted Irish skipper, she
makes her way to New York and is
at once taken under the wing of the
mother of a policeman who picks her
up. The policeman knows of Lord
Killowen’s presence in the city and
Ann goes to him with her story. Al-
though courting Eileen, he does not
love her and induces her to care for
Ann until he can arrange for her fu-
