V "The Marked Woman," the feature picture that was booked to be shown at the Paris yesterday, was delayed through transit and failed to arrive until late, last evening. The manager is holding it over today and will show it continuously, beginning -at eleven o'clock. . This picture, a five -reel offering made by the Peerless studio for the World Film program, shows very able directing. It is a story of the Boxer uprising in China; its heroine is a Russian girl and its hero is an Ameri can naval lieutenant who rescues her from the -castle of a Boxer prince. The script is by Owen Davis and it was picturized by O. A. C. Lund. The feature of the story is the stirring taking of the Boxer castle by Lieuten ant Dare, T. S. N., and his dauntless blue jackets and men in khaki. They have real walls to scale and they go up them in the most approved style. A company of militia artillery, so it seems, was utilized in taking the pic ture and its big modern field guns are brought into play with thrilling effect. There are also many excellent scenes showing them maneuvering about the fortress and on the way to it. One picture of the guns being dragged across a stream is nne. uui mr whole offering from first to last is filled with things that will both as tonish and please.

An added feature with the musical comedy coni)any play in," at the Arcade this week. state that under the present four-mile system the men just row at an easy stroke during the first three miles and spurt only in the last mile, whereas, if the course were shortened to three miles the oarsmen would spurt all the way. Such an argument is silly. The oarsmen wouldn't spurt, all the way. They wouldn't hit up a really fast stroke until they reached the last mile or last half mile, whether the course was two miles, three miles, of four miles long. Having learned a lesson from the farce decision of last June, the folks in charge of the Yale-Harvard regat ta will have professional judges at the finish line of the boat races this year. The decision of the amateur judges last year was that Yale beat Harvard by two or three feet, but the judges were alone in their decision. News paper men who have "covered" boat races for years were at that finish line and every one of the dozen gave the race to Harvard. Pitted against the unanimous ver dict of those experienced and cool headed newspaper men was the ver- only: Cornell. Columbia, Pennsyl vania, Syracuse and Washington. LONDON IS GOING DRY. Temperance Wave Sweeps Capital People Are Content. A wave of temperance is -sweeping London, if not the country generally. The success of the early closing move ment is beyond doubt. For once the cry that it is impossible to make the public virtuous by act of parliament is proving false. It is doubtful if. even when peace arrives, the good old days of midnight suppers, with accompanying liquor, will ever be revived. The temperance party is fully resolved to kee'j? the hour of closing at 10 o'clock if possi ble. A London dispatch. IF YOU WANT GOOD HEALTH. I have it for you in five gal lon bottles.

One or the jui'.ges oi the race was the postmaster of New London, Conn. ' ! Another was a student of Yale and j the third wsa a student of Harvard.: None of the tr'io ever before had ofli-l ciated at such an event, and yet, in the hands of these three men was. placed the power to decide an event on Which at least $jiJ0.flii0 had been wagered. The men who will act as judges for the Yale-Harvard boat race this year and for years to come will be se lected from men who have acted as judges ror horse races, athletic meets or similar events where an unerring eye and cool judgments are absolute necessities.

The distance of the eight oared var sity races iu the college regattas will not be sl'.ortened. It stands at four miles and will continue to stand at four miles because a lot of bull headed rowiug authorities are against the plan to reduce tho course to tlnei miles. There is an agitation on now amoua the sane and humane element in th rowing world to rut the distance from four to three miles. But nothing will come of it. Such agitations have been started annually for the past twenty years and each year they have lan guished and died. The rowing world is dominated by the four-mile faction and no change ever will be made un til that faction is in the minority, or until the four-mile pace kills a few oarsmen. Those who favor the three miles course state that the reduction of one mile in the distance of the race would save the members of the crews from the utter collapse 4hat usually comes at the end of the four-mile race. They say that a three-mile rac will satisfy all the di sires of the spectator, detract nothing from the excitement and thrill of the race and enable the men to -finish in fairly good condition, be cause it mould mean only about fifteen minutes work at the oars against twenty minutes now. Those who cling to the four-mile plan Fay that if the race were short ened it would inflict even a more ter rific strain on the oarsmen.
