It seems that in some way or oth- er the name of Pola Negri in motion Pictures is continually linked with tragedy. But "Lily of the Dust," a Dimitri Buchoweszki production, her latest screen work for Paramount, like all great love stories, has a HAPPY ENDING. "Lily of the Dust," was adapted to the screen by Paul Bern from the novel, "The Song of Songs," by Her- mann Sudermiann and the ¢ stage play by Edward Sheldon. Ben Lyon, Noah Beery and Raymond in support of the star. The story is one of a beautiful girl who lives in a little garrison town-- 8 girl whose beauty and fascination for men almost leads to her down- fall. Pola's portrayafbf the part is sald to be her greatest screen work. Directed by Buchowetzki who made "Men" and 'Peter the Great,", 'Lily of the Dust" is lavishly produced, with colorful settings and invested with a cast that means perfection. There is no doubt but that th¥s is one of the most outstanding hits of the Or any season. It will be the feat- ure attraction at the Capitol today and Thursday. British American, H. I.

Chicago, Aug. 20.--Two of the three high crimes for which IMi- nois provides the death penalty -- murder, rape and kidnapping--were committed by Nathan Leopold, Jr., and Richard Loeb, in a manner jus- tifying nothing less than death on the gallows, Thomas Marshall, as- sistant state's attorney, told Judge John Caverly today. He urged the extreme penalty in an argument bas- ed upon the phraseology of the Illi- nois laws and formal charges icon- nected with the kidnapping and mur- der of Robert Franks, to which the defendants have pleaded guilty. The accused gave no visible signs that the repeated demands for the "death penalty" had been heard by them, and seemed more interested in the notes made by the counsel for the defense. Mr. Marshall ridiculd the defense attempt to show mitigation of pun- ishment by the testimony of mental experts. 'No philosophy is an ex- cuse for crime," he said. ney-General Toronto, Aug. 20.~When he placed himself at the disposal of the authorities in the offices of the provincial police to-day, L. C.

The playing fleld suffered as a result of the drenching and became decidedly mucky, A definite announcement was held off until the Peterboro team arrived shortly after two o'clock.
