Grand Opera House.
Playing before a fairly large and a
very appreciative audience, "Mutt and
Jeff in the Woolly West” appeared at
the Grand opera house last night. Prac-
tically the same cast made up the per-
sonnel of the company as appeared last
season, when another Mutt and Jeff
production appeared here. Despite the
fact that there was even less plot
than one usually finds in the regular
run of musical comedy, the show was
thoroughly enjoyed from the time the
first curtain arose until the end of the
last act.
Miss Lizette Fuller, playing the part
of Ima Jeffries, the real widow, was
easily the star. To her fall the greater
part of the dancing novelties, and as
an exponent of the terpsichorean art,
she is wonderful. She is called upon
to do most everything from a wild
country jig to a classical Oriental dance
and she pleased the audience in all of
them.
As for Mutt and Jeff, played by Ben
Byron and Louis Markel, respectively,
they are equipped with a new line of
chatter which keeps the house in an
uproar from the time they enter the
stage until the final curtain drops.
Their lines are comical, and their an-
tics are still more comical. They were
the delight of the large number of
children which were scattered through-
out the audience, and many an older
person let out a surreptitious giggle
or guffaw when they thought the time
was ripe. .
The other members of the cast are
Carlton Reiger, who plays the part of
George Beer, the unscrupulous law -
yer; Frank Lambert, the ambitious ho-
tel clerk; Helen Lane, who plays the
part of Iona, and who is possessed with
an excellent voice, and Priscilla Mur-
ray, who wants a man and don’t care
how she gets him. All of the artists
are well placed, and there is a great
deal of excellent musical talent among
them. A mixed quartette, consisting
of Mr. Lambert, Miss Fuller, Mr. Beer
and Miss Lane, delivered a number of
selections which were well received.
The musical score of the show is
good or better than anything heard
here this season. A number of popular
selections are so intermingled that
they blend together and make a won-
derful success from the musical view-
point.
The chorus is very attractive in ev-
ery respect, is well selected, and there
are some excellent voices among them.
Mutt and Jeff will play again this
afternoon at matinee and tonight in its
final performance.
The next offering at the Grand will
be Majestic Vaudeville, playing Sun-
day and Monday, matinee and nights.

A pimply face will not embarrass you

tablets a few nights.
Cleanse the blood,the bowels and the liver
with Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets, the suc-

any sickness or pain after taking them.
Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets do that
which calomel does, and just as effectively,
but their action is gentle and safe instead
of severe and irritating.
No one who takes Olive Tablets is
ever cursed with “a dark brown taste,”
a bad breath, a dull, listless, “no good”
feeling, constipation, torpid liver, bad
disposition or pimply face.
Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets are
a purely vegetable compound mixed
with olive oil; you will know them
by their olive color.
Dr. Edwards spent years among pa-
tients afflicted with liver and bowel
complaints, and Olive Tablets are the
immensely effective result.

Dixie Theater No. 1.
It’s always a big event for many
screen fans in Galveston when Theda
Bara is to be seen in a new film play.
The clever William Fox star is being
shown in her latest superproduction,
“The She Devil,” at the Dixie No. 1
theater for today and tomorrow.
Her new production is melodramatic
with a touch of comedy running
throughout and gives the star some
of the best scenes of her career. The
action takes place in a typical South-
ern Spanish village hidden away in the
mountains and the lazy life of the peo-
ple of that country is truly depicted.
It costs more than $20,000 for the cos-
Vaudeville at the Grand.
“Good things in abundance”—That’s
the program at the Grant! for Sunday
and Monday. Sharing headline honors
are Josie Heather, winsome English
comedienne and Arthur Deagon, musi-
cal comedy star. Miss Heather is as-
sisted by William Casey, Jr., at the
piano), and Bobbie Heather, in a merry
little musical production by William
B. Friedlander. Her program consists
largely of impersonations and songs
which give her an opportunity to make
numerous changes of costume and to
wear some extremely smart gowns.
Besides golf, Arthur Deagon seems
to have just one serious business to
devote himself to, and that is to make
people laugh. WhereDeagon differs
from most of his contemporaries in
fun making, however, is that he makes
comedy a dignified art. Whether it’s
a funny song he has to sing or a side
splitting tale he has to tell, Mr. Dea-
gon is artist enough to ring the bell
of mirth with every shot without re-
sorting to burlesque or questionable
taste.
It is a happy circumstance that
brings beautiful Margaret Edwards as
an extra added attraction. Selected
from among over twenty thousand con-
testants as the most perfectly propor-
tioned woman in the world she comes
from the feature spot of “A World of
Pleasure” to offer a revelation in physi-
cal culture and dancing. As an ex-
ponent of the means of attaining phy-
sical perfection she is an attraction
of vital interest to women and girls.
It is as a dancer, however, that her :
symmetry, grace and skill find scope '
for display. Her Arabian dance is one ■
of the most daring and artistically
beautiful efforts on the American stage

To Spend Three Months in City of Los
Angeles.
By Associated Press.
Los Angeles, Cali., Dec. 14.—Secretary
of the Treasury McAdoo* has taken a
three months lease on the Los Angeles
home of the late George W. Houck,
wire wheel magnate, according to an
announcement made today by a local
real estate dealer. It was stated that
Mr. McAdoo’s lease starts on Jan. 1.
The home is considered one of the show
places of Los Angeles.
port opposes the pending resolution
recommending that the proceedings be
dropped. -
The misstatements alleged to have
been made by Senator Lafollette are de-
clared by the report to be a “slander”
upon the government and sufficient
cause for conviction in criminal pro-
ceedings..
Specifically, the report urges that a
“full and complete” hearing be ordered
by the senate to the end:
“First: That the senator from Wis-
consin can be completely exonerated if
the testimony justifies it.
“Second: That he may be expelled
if the testimony justifies it.
“Third: That the senate may pass a
vote of censure or administer such oth-
er punishment as the testimony may
justify.
“This is our opinion,” the report de-
clares, “is a duty which we owe to the
senator from Wisconsin, to the United
States senate itself, and to the public.
More we ought not do and less we can-
not be expected to do.
“We do not say in the present state
of the record,” the minority report says,
“that Senator Lafollette should be ex-
pelled from the senate or that he should
be convicted of a criminal offense un-
der the espionage act; but we do say
that applying the principles of criminal
law, a.grand jury inquiring into the
case with no other evidence before it
than the speech itself and the facts as
in this report recited, would have been
justified in returning an indictment
against him for violation of the espi-
onage law. And we further say that
with this evidence and none other be-
fore a petit jury, it would have been
justified in returning a verdict of guilty
under this section of the statute and
no court would have disturbed it.
“If there is any reasonable explana-
tion which can be made of these utter-
ances which tend to prove an innocent
purpose, such explanation ought to be
given to the end that no injustice may
be done and that it has not been charged
that the United States senate passes
lightly over wrongful speech when oth-
ers are criminally prosecuted for of-
fense, in our judgment, no less se-
vere.”
Senator Lafollette, in his St. Paul
speech, the report declares, “wholly ig-
nored the real causes which led to the
war,” and says that "these statements
could not have been made by accident
or slip of the tongue because the same
thought, if not the very same language
Is reported several times within the
space of a few minutes.
“The constitutional right of free-
dom of speech cannot be pleaded in
defense,” the report continues. “Free-
dom of speech never justified the slan-
der of the chastity of a woman or the
honor of a man, or the cause of a coun-
try when in the throes of the most ter-
rific war ever waged."

Crystal Vaudeville,
“Fad and Fancies” will be repeated
tonight for the last time. It has an
interesting plot running through it
and at the same time gives the audi-

plenty of good singing interspersed
through it. —
Commencing tomorrow matinee there
will be a change of play and it prom-

It is one of the ones you will regret

very capable actress, Victoria Cross.
There will be a change of program to-

Weather Conditions.
Rain has fallen during the last
twenty-four hours over practically the
eastern half of the country, attending a
low pressure area that is central this

heaviest rains occurred at points in
Tennessee, Alabama and Mississippi.
Precipitation has also occurred in the
extreme Northwest. In other portions
of the country the weather has been

By Associated Press,
Cologne, Dec. 14.—A new element has
been injected into the complicated
political situation in the Rhineland by
the organization of a secret party
which is working for the annexation of
this German territory to France. Over-
tures will be made to the French gov-
ernment, it is said, to take the Rhine-
land into France on the same basis as
Alsace-Lorraine.
There is throughout the Rhineland a
double-headed government composed of
revolutionists on one side and officials
of the imperialistic regime on the other,
who, for the moment, are working more
or less together for the common good.
To add to the complicated situation,
there are, besides the party which de-
sires annexation to France, at least two
with distinctly different ideals.
One of these is composed of Liberal
Democrats and Socialists, who want to
see the establishment of a great re-
public which will include not only all
of Germany, but Austria, with Berlin
as the capital. The second group is
composed of the Catholic or Centrist
party, which is said to desire a Rhenish
Westphalian republic.
Queen Theater,
An unusual and a remarkable film as
to story and composition and thrilling
interest is “The Kaiser’s Finish.” It is
a story that is “new under the sun,”
and yet is one that tells accurately and
thrillingly of the events that led to
the downfall of the former German kai-
ser and of the end that the world would
yet like to see befall him. The basis
of the story is the well known reports
in European countries that the kaiser
has many sons born of peasant women
in many lands, whom he puts into the
secret service of Germany, holding
them as slaves because of their rela-
tionship to him, as soon as they reach
the age of maturity. How one of these
sons of the kaiser, a boy born and rear-
ed in America and an American in sen-
timent through and through, refuses to
become such a slave, while he seems
to submit, and how he, in Germany,
brings the crown prince and the kaiser
to justice in his own way and is a hero,
unheralded and unsung' and never
known in the country for which he
gives his life, is the thrilling and in-
spiring story. Earl Schenk is the son
and also plays the crown prince. Claire
Anderson has a good role, and the sup-
port is all that one looks for from the
producers of “My Four Years in Ger-
many,” which is saying much.
ed Detroit from South America. Mr.
Willems brings word that the greatest |
obstacles to world business today are ;
lack of freight facilities and gasoline, |
and total or partial embargoes in all 1
parts of the world. He predicts a vast
enlargement of American world busi-
ness after the war, but in the face of
keen and highly organized competition
from several quarters.
He says that American business has
made considerable progress in South
America during the period of the war,
and that the establishment of branch
banks has done a great deal to pro-
mote North American interests in the
nations to the south of us. As he sees
the situation, manufacturers in the
United States have now the best op-
portunity in their existence to take le-
gitimate advantage of the South Ameri-
can needs.
“North American business men should
"nderstand," Mr. Willems says, “that
the representatives they send to South
American business houses should be
equipped with a good working knowl-
edge and command of Spanish. A
French scholar is at an advantage in
•South America, because nearly every-
body of the intellectual class also
speaks. French. Representatives should
have a clear conception of the Latin
temperament, and defer to Latin cus-
toms as far as necessary.”
The tight cold is the kind Dr. Bell’s
Pine-Tar Honey likes to tackle—the
hard-to-get-rid-of kind. It gets on the
job and helps Nature to loosen the
cold and then finally to relieve it. You
soon will feel like yourself.
The balsam and other healing, sooth-
ing ingredients do it. The phlegm
soon loosens, the inflammation is al-
leviated, the “tightness” gives way,
without uncomfortable after-effects.
