mother of the dend woman, her daugh
ter. 23 years old. had been mistreated by
her husband on many occasions. She al
so. swore that her daughter told her she
was afraid of her husband, following his
thrcaat last night to kill her and Wil
cox. There was no evidence that there
had been any improper relations ne
tween Ward's wife and WHeox, and
Wilcox swore that he did not know why
Word should want to kill him. They
were friendly yesterday.
Ward is a young man and it is gen
erally believed that he was scuffling
with his Wife when the gun filed. She
was heard to beg him to put the gun
down, but he refused and stated he was
going to kill Wilcox.
It is estimated that the erow causes
an annual damage of $3.65 —a cent a
day per crow.

STAGE SUCCESS

edy Enterprise.
“Welcome Stranger," a sensational
Broadway stage success of a few yeurs
back, made into a photoplay under the
direction of James Young, and released
by Producers' Distributing (Yrp„ comes
to the Concord Theatre for a one-day run
Wednesday.
As a stage play, “Welcome Stranger"
gave George Sidney onto of the greatest
characterizations ever seen on the speak
ing stage. In the screen adaptation
Dote Davidson, who lridtle a distinct per
sonal lilt in "Humoresque." plays the role
made famous by Sidney. Florence Vidor,
meads the east, has one of the most ap
pealing roles of her career.
The story is dean comedy of the
“Potash and Perlmutter” type, with an
undercurrent of humanity that throws
the humorous situations into liigli re
lief.
Its leading character is a shopkeeper
who, by sheer force of kindliness and
humanity, melts every prejudice and
leaves every character with whom he
comes in contact better than he found
him.
The play is essentially a comedy melo
drama of race prejudice, and the ironic
title refers to tiie cold shoulder given to
to establish himself in a small New
England town one bitter New Year's
eve. How he melts this prejudice by
his humility, his kindliness and his gen
erosity makes for, as entertaining a pic
ture ns has come to the screen ill many
a year.
The production was made by Belasco
Productions. Inc., and adapted for the
screen by James Young and Willard
Mack.
Besides Miss Vidor and Pore David
son. the cast includes auch notables
names as Virginia Brown Fairo, Noah
Beery, Lloyd Hughes, Robert Eedeson.

WASHINGTON officials don't
seem worried, but some ot
the European governments
unnuestionably are.
The French, in i>articular, say,
"We know there's no mistake
about it. for here are the phony
bills, turning up right along ”
"How do you know they're
phony if they deceive even ex
perts?" is the natural query
"Well, all but the very best ex
perts.” insist the French.
It isn't impossible the secret
service is keeping a sharp eye out
for the appearance of any suspi
cious-looking paper on this side of
the water, too. Us operatives
wouldn't say so. if they were. They
eschew brass hands.
