PAGE SIX UNITED THEATRE LAST TIMES TONITE—PERCY MARMONT "THE CLEAN HEART" Wanda Willey in "SOME TOMBOY" TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY THE ROMANCE OF A GIRL OF HOLLYWOOD "BEHOLD THIS WOMAN" BY E. PHILLIPS OPPENHEIM, with IRENE RICH, CHAS. POST, HARRY MEYERS, ROSEMARY THEBY AND ANDRES RANDOLPH A Love Story of Movie Land LARRY SEMON COMEDY CURRENT NEWS "ALWAYS A GOOD SHOW AT THE UNITED" THRU QUIZZING OF SHEATSLEYS COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. 1.—Local authorities probing the Bexley furnace mystery, when informed today that Fond du Lac, Wis., police were holding a suspect in the Sheatsley case, said no description of suspects had been broadcast to out of town authorities. Detectives Harry Carson and Jas. Creedon, who are associated with prosecutor John R. King in the investigation, said they knew of no reason why the Wisconsin man should be held. The detectives revealed, however, that a young man who entered a basement in the neighborhood of the Sheatsley parsonage, the day of the tragedy was the object of a search. They said the mistress of the house shouted at the intruder, who fled. Members of the Sheatsley family, Rev. C. V. Sheatsley, his children, Glarence 16, Milton, 20, Elizabeth, 14 and Alice, 10, probably will not be called again for questioning by the prosecutor concerning the circumstances attending Mrs. Sheatsleys tragic death. MOST INTERESTING FILM AT UNITED It is seldom that the picture fan has a chance to see how pictures are made. Owing to a twist in "Behold This Woman," which comes to the United Theater Tuesday and Wednesday, the spectator is shown the entire workings of the Vitagraph studio in Hollywood, both inside and out. The heroine, a role assumed by Irene Rich, is a motion picture star and several of the dramatic sequences take place while she is at work in the studio. This affords opportunity for the audience to see how a motion picture director and his mechanical staff work. This sequence gives a more intimate relation between player and audience than is usual with motion picture productions. Some beautiful exterior shots of the hill country around Los Angeles are also some of the scenic background of this romance of movie land. These scenes offer striking contrast to the gorgeous settings of society fetes and gala events staged as part of the action. YOSEMITE POWER TO SAN JOAQUIN CONGRESS FACES STORMY SESSION (Continued from Page One) chusets are defensively defiant. Little work of any kind was accomplished in the dying season until after Jan. 1. It will take week to get organized, another week to get going, and the holidays recess will intervene postpone action. The meeting of both houses was more or less perfunctory roll calls and then adjourned out of respect to departed bers. President Coolidge will mit his annual message on state of the nation Wednesday is not expected that he will pose anything new or startling cause it would be manifestly less—congress probably would or could not enact it. He will fer his really important legislative recommendations until the congress comes in after May which is Republican in the well as in name. It is wholly unlikely there be any railroad legislation on Howell-Barkley bill propabilishment of the railway board is uppermost on the calendar. Its passage is doubled. The usual number of bills being upon a thousand subject be introduced for the record then allowed to die thru imitation and lack of time for eration. In the senate the upper question on the legislative dar is the disposition of Shoals. By unanimous consent matter remains before the as unfinished business. Disposition of Pres. Coolidge on the postal pay Increase also is before congress. The chance that this measure be passed over Coolidge's veer tho with the program in an chaotic and uncertain statu The detectives revealed, however, that a young man who entered a basement in the neighborhood of the Sheatsley parsonage, the day of the tragedy was the object of a search. They said the mistress of the house shouted at the intruder, who fled. Members of the Sheatsley family, Rev. C. V. Sheatsley, his children, Glirence 16, Milton, 20, Elizabeth, 14 and Alice, 10, probably will not be called again for questioning by the prosecutor concerning the circumstances attending Mrs. Sheatsley tragic death, King said today. Nothing of value in solving the mystery was obtained during the six hours of gruelling questioning of the minister and his sons yesterday, the prosecutor admitted. "The stories did not deviate a particle from their first statements of the finding of Mrs. Sheatsley's body in the parsonage, furnace nearly two weeks ago," said King. "We have finished with the Sheatsleys." King did not hesitate to say that if the report of the scientists expected today shows Mrs. Sheatsley was alive when she entered the furnace, the probs will immediately report that she committed suicide. But if Dr. Brundage, pathologist and C. F. Long, chemist, who are examining guinea pigs sacrificed in the Sheatsley furnace, find that the animals breathed carbon monoxide before they were burned to death, the probe will be continued indefinitely, according to the prosecutor. Wage Award Won't Stop Strike Vote SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 1.—The decision handed down Saturday in Chicago by the U. S. Ry-Labor Board granting wage increases approximating 5 per cent to engineers and firemen and changing working conditions for those employees on important railroads in the west and southwest will have no effect whatsoever on the strike vote now being taken by the So. Pac. (Pacific system), the El Paso Southwestern and the 6,000 enginemen and firemen of Arizona Eastern railroads, according to L. G. Griffing, grand chief engineer Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. "The strike vote will be continued and we expect results to begin coming in later today," Griffing said. "The complete vote will probably be in toward the end of the week." Whether the labor board decision would have any effect in averting a strike which would completely tie up the system involved, Griffing refused to say. He intimated, however, that only an independent settlement between the road and the brotherhood members would be satisfactory. A strike vote on the three roads was begun last week. YOSEMITE POWER TO SAN JOAQUIN YOSEMITE VALLEY, Dec. 1.—Hydro-electric power generated in Yosemite National Park was being distributed today to the San Joaquin Valley following a co-operative agreement between the National Park service and the San Joaquin Light and Power Co. A large crew of men has been engaged in building the connecting link between the transmission lines of the power company, and those of the park. This work, to gether with the completion of the substation, cost $30,000. Chief Electrician J. W. Emmerd states the San Joaquin company will supply the park during emergencies, but that on the whole, the park plant will be disposing of a large surplus to the private concern. This will allow more power for the San Joaquin Valley. This co-operative agreement between the National Park service and the San Joaquin Light and Power Co., a private company, is probably the only contract of its kind in the state or the country, according to park officials. REDS ATTEMPT TO TAKE OVER REVAL LONDON, Dec. 1.—Martial law has been proclaimed in Reval following an unsuccessful attempt by armed reds to capture the government buildings, said an Agency dispatch received here this afternoon from Helsingforn. Several police were slain and the minister of communication was shot in the fighting. Fighting began when armed reds occupied the railroad station and attempted to seize the telephone and telegraph offices. Troops put down the outbreak by throwing hand grenades and spraying the rebels with machine gun fire. The soldiers recovered the railroad station from the reds and occupied all government buildings. Reval is the capital of Esthonia. It is situated in the bay of Reval. An arm of the Gulf of Finland. When a part of Russia, it was an important second class naval station. It is 200 miles from Deningrad (Petrograd). SECRETIVENESS BLOCKS INQUIRY LOS ANGELES, Dec. 1.—Secretary concerning his private intimate relation between player and audience than is usual with motion picture productions. Some beautiful exterior shots of the hill country around Los Angeles are also some of the scenic background of this romance of movie land. These scenes offer striking contrast to the gorgeous settings of society fetes and kala events staged as part of the action. MEETINGS CLAIM INCREASED CRIME The revival meetings which in progress at the Nazareth oracle are increasing in attendance. Rev. J. T. The evangelist, who is cornered by the meetings, preached times yesterday. His martyrs well received. At the morning service he from the subject "The Church." In the afternoon subject was "Heart-Holine How to Obtain it" and at ning service his subject "What Means to be a Chie Rev. Little took for his morning service, the Jesus."

"The complete vote will probably be in toward the end of the week." Whether the labor board decision would have any effect in averting a strike which would completely tie up the system involved, Griffing refused to say. He intimated, however, that only an independent settlement between the road and the brotherhood members would be satisfactory. A strike vote on the three roads was begun last week. The 5 per cent wage increase granted by the labor board does not seem to meet the requests of the So. Pac.-El Paso Southwestern and Arizona Eastern enginemen and firemen, it was pointed out in neutral quarters today. Griffing said a formal statement might be issued later on in the day. Associated with the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers in the strike vote is the Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen and Enginemen. AUTOIST FINED $50 Earl O. Matheny of Los Angeles, was arraigned this morning before Judge Kuchel on the charge of reckless driving, entered a plea of guilty and was fined $50. He is said to have been driving too fast to turn the corner at Palm-st. and state highway, and his Kissel car turned turtle. The car was not much damaged, and Matheny was not hurt. He is said also to have been without a registration certificate. Tom Smith and W. R. Campbell, charged with being drunk, were given "floaters" out of town.

The Auto Trades club members will appear in a special act that is chuck full of laughs and sur-prices. STOCKS REPEAT DAILY ADVANCE NEW YORK, Dec. 1.—Railroad and industrial stocks today repeated their daily performance of advancing briskly into higher price levels. Speculative interest, which was mostly confined to the industrial stocks in the first two hours, shifted to the railroad stocks shortly after the noon period and a number of active stocks in this group responded by rushing to the highest prices of the year to date. Estimates of November earnings of leading railroads reaching the financial district were very favorable, the result not only of the high rate of freight movement over the country in the last four weeks, but also of rigid economies in the operation of the roads. Among the leaders in the upward movement of railroad shares were Baltimore and Ohio, up three points to 74%, the highest since 1917; Reading up 2½ at 70, the highest since the segregation of its coal properties; Atchison at 116¼, fractionally above its previous price for the year; Kansas City Southern at 38, up three; New York Central, Missouri, Kansas & Texas and New Haven & St. Paul was reactionary in the early trading, but recovered. Stock sales today totalled 2,148,000 shares; bonds $16,298,-000. LOS ANGELES PRODUCE LOS ANGELES, Dec. 1.—Butter 44; Eggs, extras 52; case count 50; pullets 45.

Rev. J. T. Little, the evangelist, who is conducting these meetings, preached three times yesterday. His messages were well received. At the morning service he spoke from the subject "The True Church." In the afternoon his subject was "Heart-Holiness and How to Obtain it" and at the evening service his subject was "What It Means to be a Christian." Rev. Little took for his text at the morning service, the words of Jesus, "On this rock I will build a church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it." The church referred to here, he said, is not some one denomination, but it is composed of true believers in all denominations. A man might have his name on the church roll of any denomination and not be unanimous consent this latter remains before the senate unfinished business. Disposition of Pres. Coolidge's role on the postal pay increase bill is before congress. There is assurance that this measure will pass over Coolidge's veto, with the program in such aotic and uncertain state, and time so short, its fate is more less uncertain. The appropriation bills, eleven number, and providing for the penditure of over three billion dollars are the first and prime consideration in both houses. Reportes that the insurgents would obstruct their passage so as compel Pres. Coolidge to do what he has said he will not call an extra session of the new congress in March—could not confirmed today. For the Democrats, Sen. Jas. L. Gibbons, the leader, said his paraphrase "would go along" on the approval bill and purely routine business. And today, Sen. Butron K. Wheeler, running mate for LaFalle, came out with similar assurances on the part of the insurgents. La Follette himself, had to be heard from. Instead of "obstretting" Wheel-declared that the progressive group would itself bring forth "a constructive program." Two of its measures in this program he would be: A constitutional amendment to abolish the electoral college and provide for direct election of president and vice president; aid another amendment to provide that congress by a two-thirds vote may override supreme court decisions. ROTARY GOVERNOR ANAHEIM VISITOR Harry S. Mason, governor of second Rotary district, today addressed local Rotarians on ethics and standards of the club. Leonard Evans delivered a five-minute talk on Rotary friendships. Dr. R. R. Root headed a delegation of five Rotarians from Corona. The meeting took the form of a farewell to President Carl Leonard who leaves Monday for a three months' tour that will take him thru eastern states from New England to Florida. In his absence his office will be filled by the five directors acting alternately. ONE DEAD, ONE HURT IN TRAIN CRASH CHICAGO, Dec. 1.

The church referred to here," he said, is not some one denomination, but it is composed of true believers in all denominations. A man have his name on the church roll of any denomination and not be a member of this church. We get into the church of Jesus Christ by a real change of heart in conversion." He then went on to show that there were two great opposing forces in this world, right and wrong, righteousness and sin, the church of Jesus Christ and the powers of evil. "War is on," he said, "and it's no sham battle neither." In closing his message Rev. Little said "the church cannot fail the gates of hell shall not prevail against it."

Office expense and the operation of the Suisun make up the total amount suggested. The work at Vallejo would consist of dredging Mare Island strait. Expense bringing the total Mare Island and Washington harbors in the first and second Portland districts during the coming fiscal year ending June 1926. The Coos Bay project with a total recommended allotment of $1,203,500 was the largest single item, closely followed by improvements on the Columbia river between Vancouver and the mouth totaling $723,000. A drastic feature of the report was the recommendation that the lock and dam on the Yamhill river be abandoned "because of the lack of traffic and the apparent indifference of the people of the locality as to the development of local water borne traffic." The report further suggested that improvement of the Yamhill river above the lock be discontinued by the government. In Coos Bay restoration work on the north jetty for the coming fiscal year and construction of the south jetty were estimated at approximately 537,400 and 664,100 respectively. The only other major recommendation for the first district was for an allotment of 111,715 for the blasting and dredging in Yaquina bay and harbor. Maintenance work on the Columbia river above Celilo Falls and dredging in the Snake river in Oregon, Washington and Idaho, were figured at $20,000. The mouth of the Columbia river received no recommended allotment the bar being declared in good condition with a minimum of vessels forced to remain outside the bar in stormy weather.
