DESPONDENT OVER ILL
HEM, CHS. ANDERSON
SHOOTS SELF IH HEAD
Despondency, brought about by ill
herMh which has pursued him for a
number of years, is thought to have
driven Chas. Anderson, old timer
around Seward, temporarily insane
today at 10 a. m., at which time
he fired a bullet through Iris temple,
ending it all.
He was found, immediately aher
the fatal shot sounded, lying upon
the fioor of the wood shed to the
rear of the Belmont House. Officiate
were called and the body removed to
the Seward Undertaking Parlor.
Chas. Anderson was a familiar
character in the early days of Daw
son and along the Yukon where he
followed mining. Since his local res
dency, dating back many years, he
worked as longshoreman anti for the
railroad.
•As far as is known at this time his
cnly relative is a cousin in Chicago.
It is said he left a respectable size
bank account.
"ILF'S CLOUS" III
LIBERTY TOMORROW
In “Wolf’s Clothing”, the Warner
Bros., picture starring Monte Blue,
the Liberty theatre has one of the
most diverting pictures of the season
for Sunday. Founded upon Arthur
Somner Roche’s story, it tells a tale
that recalls the spirit of O. Henry.
For here New York is once more
transformed into Bagdad-on-the-Sub*
way, and once more adventure Whies
to commonplace people and turns
them into types of true romance.
Like a character in the Arabian
Nights, Barry Baline, a subway guard,
is transported into scenes of great
pomp and circumstance, and whirled
thru a night of mad excitement. The
night is New Year’s Eve and the place
is New York. A gang of crooks are
out to get $50,000 in loot and Barry
Baline finds himself out to get the
crooks.
Monte Blue is Barry and Barry in
a role that suits Mr. Blue in every'
particular. A big husky, laughing
roughneck, he plays with a rip-snort
ing zest that sweeps the adventure
along into the realm of convincing
probability.
Playing opposite him is Patsy Ruth
Miller, as a society girl who wants
to see life without her chaperon. She
is out to capture her freedom. She
captures, instead, the affections of the
subway guard.
Other outstanding performances are
given by John Mijan, Douglas Gerrard,
Lee Moran and Kala Pasha.
The picture was directed by Roy
Del Ruth, with a fine sense of comedy
and sure sense of thrills.
