Speaking as a question of personal privilege today, Senator Stone charged that publish ed reports saying Democratic leaders had sought to dissuade him from mak ing recent attack on the Republicans had been calculated to break the force of his charge that Colonel' Roosevelt and other Republican leaders had been playing partisan politics in the war. " Senator Stone denied categorically that any Democratic leaders or Post master General Burleson as publish ed, had conferred with him on the subjects at all. Dispatches sent out to the newspa pers of the country on that day saying tie-doubt but thatthe majority of . Democrats were advising Mr. Stone the clubs will respond, the literature department of the Warsaw Club hav ing already voted to purchase the stamps. The - Little Confederates of C, will also purchase War Savings Stamp. The sale of stamps is going briskly on in other tjnore "the desired scene which is nothing j psrtg Qf the cfmnty My w New. them 3 being especially good at that place, while here even -the small chil dren are saving their pennies in or der to buy thrift stamps. There is an epidemic of colds and la grippe here now, the cases being of more or less severity, but none in the town reaching the point of pneu monia. Tier, malady, however, is widespread, every street in town having several cases, the epidemic following and Ming the result of the bad weather of the past month. SENSATIONAL CROOK PLAY. The Pickert Stock Company pre sents for the week-end, today and to morrow, the sensational crook play, :"Kick In," which theatregoers re ;member having made such a hit at Ithe Academy of Music some time since. Those posted on affairs theatrical ivill remember the instantaneous suc cess of "Kick In," when first pre sented in New York in 1914, with John Barrymore and Jane Gray in the leads, and the Pickerts in Ralph iW. Chambers and Blanche Pickert, 'have twd leads who will portray 'these roles in a manner that will sat isfy even those who by chance saw ithe original production. The situations and characters in "Kick In" are both new to the stage! and are presented without artificial : ity and in a fashion that is decidedly ! logical and tens-e. It was a "crook" i play and the author has struck a big sympathetic chord in making his crooks struggle to reform against 'heavy odds that nearly drive them back into the paths they are trying to keep clear of. It will keep the imost hardened theatre-goer . sitting :mighty close to the edge of his 'chair: Seats can be purchased in advance by those who may have suffered' a disappointment by not Obtaining good : seats at the other openings of new plays on Monday and Wednesday TREMENDOUS FEMININE APPEAL Two soldiers in the military hospi tal at Bath, Tngland, furnish a .strange example of war's coincidence. Both were born in the same village, both joined the same regiment, were simultaneously wounded in their left .ankles by bullets which passed into their right feet, travelled home to gether in the same convoy, and wer placed side by side in the hospital to receive identical treatment. GR'A ND A list of the productions in which j any popular film actress has appear- j ed would, without-doubt, include a variety of subjects, but it is doubtful; whether any screen star has to his or her credit a larger assortment or ; one with, a wider scope than Pauline Frederick, Paramount star and emo-, tional actress. For those who. have, followed the work of this popular. star it will perhaps be interesting to recall her Paramount productions in the order of their appearances: "Sold,'' "Zaza," "Bella Donna," "Lydia ; Gilmore," "Spider," "Audrey," "The; Moment Before," "The World's Great ! Snare,' '"The Woman in the Case," ! "Ashes of Embers," "Nanette of the! Wilds," "The Slave Market,"!

You will revel with her when" she triumphs over the keenest minds in the upper and underworld. Regular Prices: Matinees 10c Nights I IDC not to deliver the speech, were based on statements several Democratic leaders at the capitol made to the newspaper correspondents in which they unreservedly declared they were apprehensive Of the effect of the speech and were advising the Mis souri Senator not to deliver it. ICE MOVING SLOWLY IN THE OHIO RIVER Cincinnati, Jan. 3L The Ice gorge In the Ohio river broke again during the night but little additional damage was done to that sustained yesterday when three large steamers were sunk and numerous small craft were wash ed down stream. The ice was moving slowly today and river men predicted that it would gorge again with the coming colder weatner today. MR. PARKER RECOVERS. Recently Wounded Man Able to Make Trip to Wilmington. (Special to The Dispatch.) Wallace, Feb. 1. Mr. G. B. Parker, one of the most prominent citizens of Duplin county, living 14 miles east of Wallace, Chinq.uapin, who was recent ly 'shot and at first thought fatally wounded by, a neighborhood boy, Wal ter Cottle, who was home on furlough from the navy,' friends will be glad ta. learn, is sufficiently recovered as to be able to make a trip to Wilming ton, Tuesday, return the same day. His going to Wilmington Was to con suit his surgeon, Dr. Thomas M. Green, as Mr. Parker still carries the bullet in his breast. Upon examina tion with the X-ray, it was found that the bullet was lodged in a place which will cause him no more trou ble.. This is very gratifying to his family and friends, who naturally felt a great deal of uneasiness over the bullet remaining for so long a time in his breast. Mr. Parker appears to be none the worse for his terrible ex perience and is able to attend to his home and business as usual. Rev. C. V. ' Brooks, pastor of the Baptist church here, left Tuesday for Richmond, Va., where he will enter Johnston-Willis . Sanitorium, where Be will undergo treatment. Friends hope that Mr. Brooks will soon be greatly improved in health. There will soon be opened In .Wal lace a new business enterprise, of which the town Js proud. Mr. J, W. Sheffield will start in operation, era soon as the building is ready, a whole sale grocery, feed and hardware store. A few nights ago H.. Margolls & Bros. dry goods store was entered by robbers, who prized loose the iron bars at the back of the store. Nearly a thousand dollars worth ofv goods, mostly shoes and mens' suits, were stolen. The thieves were, it seems, very choice in their selection, as they took from the same racks all boys' suits, 'laying them aside, and taking only grown men s suits, as well as shoes. As yet no clue has been made Jjmblic, though it is understood that f parties are unaer suspicion. THE BIG CROOK PL y Royal i FOUR ACTS I OF THRILLS.

They've stopped our eating sugar; they've stopped our eating meat and wheat stuffs till our diet is a thing far from complete. But though the busy government is stopping all they can to stop the brash designers seems beyond the power of man. So the busy young designers keep designing right along pretty things for that third charmer that is neither wine nor song. 5 The novelties they're turning out quite take your breath away and. aft er that they take your cashif you've some left today, To have- your hat upon your head and also in your hand you think perhaps a. magio feat, and hard to ; understand..
