HAND GRENADES
I COBLENZ.—Hand grenades left
over from the war were used ef
fectively recently by enraged civ
lilians in Zoppot, West Prussia, who
attacked food stores on the ground
that the shop-keepers were profiteer
ing. According to information
reaching American army headquar
ters, a mob, armed with grenades.
| revolvers and other weapons, at
tacked in numbers the stores which
were known to have charged high
prices.
In the interior of Germany mar
garine has been quoted recently at
6 marks per pound, whereas it for
|merly cost 2.80 marks per pound.
;This is attributed to the fact that
large quantities have lately been
j bought abroad at higher prices than
'formerly, owing to the low rate of
German exchange. The official rate
; of exchange at army headquarters
; is 2 marks 22 pfennigs for one
franc, giving the mark a value in
American money of a fraction more
than 6 cents.

POM ACTRESS
COMING TOMORROW
Popular Mary Pickford, that de
light of the silent drama, will make >
her appearance at the Coliseum to-!
morrow night in her newest Art
craft picture, “The Little Ameri
can,” which is said to be the strong
est production in which she was
ever starred.
The story deals with the late war
and offers various surprises that,
when seen on the screen, will dis
close remarkable effects. As the
little American girl marooned in a
French chateau while the battle
surges around her, “Little Mary” is
given an opportunity to display the
wonderful dramatic ability with
which she is gifted.
Although the story deals with the
war, it is not of the same type as
the ordinary war drama, as it deals
more with the intimate than the
general.
An exceptionally capable support
ing cast appears in the production
with Mary, the list including such
well-known players as Herbert Bos
worth, Jack Holt, .James Neill, Ray
mond Hatton, Guy Oliver, Edythe
Chapman. Lillian Leighton, Walter
Long, Dewitt Jennings, and little
Ben Alexander.
The feature is in six parts, for
which there will be the regular Sun
day charge of 50 cents for general
admission, and a quarter extra for
reservations. The show will start at
8:30.

Deputy Marshal Wood returned
to Fairbanks late yesterday after
noon from Salcha with the body of
Axel Johnson, truck driver, who
met death on the trail south of
^Fairbanks on Thursday afternoon.
Wood reports that the truck over
turned in such a manner as to make
it impossible for Johnson to jump
from his seat, and when -the heavy
machine came to a sudden halt at
the foot of the embankment, the
driver was thrown to the ground,
where he was pinned beneath the
lower front wheel, the weight rest
ing upon his hip and groin. Other
bruises found on the body indicate
that death was almost if not quite
instantaneous. The truck landed
on its side.
Xo arrangements have yet been!
made for the funeral.
