NEW YORK, Oct. 20.—Charles S.
Mellen, one time president of the New
| York, New Haven and Hartford rail-
j road, testified as a government wit-
! ness today again-it the eleven men
i with whom lie was formerly associat-
] ed on the road's board of directors.
! whose trial on the charge of violating
: the Sherman anti-trust law, began one
i week ago.
Standing before a government map
' of the New Haven railroad system
[ with a long pointer in his hand, much
1 like a college professor delivering a
• lecture to his pitptls, Mr. Mellen spent
! the last two hours of the afternoon
< ! session explaining the nature of the
j competitive railroad conditions at the
I time, twenty-five years ago, when the
j New Haven's alleged conspiracy to
; control the entire transportation traf-
fic of the six states began.
j It was only the preliminary part of
I the lengthy story which the govern-
ment expects the former railroad
! president to tell to the jury before the
| trial is over.
The former New Haven president
was greeted with every evidence of
cordiality by the defendants. William
Rockefeller was among several of the
defendants who stepped forward to
converse with him.
Mr. Mellen gave his occupation as a
"farmer—an agriculturist." He took
up New England traffic conditions as
far back as 1890.
"Was the competition keen?" ask-
ed Frank L. Swacker, the government
attorney.
"I should say there was considera-
ble competition," replied the witness.
"It was fairly lively."
Mr. Mellen was preceded on the
stand by two present officials of the

ly appreciated here and no doubt they
will score a hit. Herbert Rawlinson
will be featured in "Her Prey," a Gold

JARRELL'S
THE TEMPLE THEATRE.
Nell O'Brien.
The fourth annual appearance of
Neil O'Brien and his great American
Minstrels at the Temple theatre to-
night will, as formerly, be welcomed
no doubt with much real pleasure
by all minstrel lovers who have come
to regard Mr. O'Brien arid his as-
sociates as the country's leading ex-
ponents of black face merriment.
The organization is again under the
management of Oscar F. Hodge, who
promises an entirely new show in
every detail, all now scenery, new
wardrobe, new faces and new fea-
tures. The reproduction this season
is on even a more elaborate and cost-
ly scale than formerly and includes
a very artistic and beautiful first
fart setting representing the very
latest fad in art.
While several of the principal
members of Mr. O'Brien's company,
who, like the star have gained in
popularity with each succeeding sea-
son, have been retained, the organi-
zation this year is mostly a new one.
'Lasses White formerly leading co-
median with Honey Boy Evans' min-
strels, Charles Strong and a number
of others are the recent additions,
taken together with the old favorites,
Eddie Mazier, Pete Detzel, Casper
nowak, and a score of lesser lights
give Mr. O'Brien splendid support in
the fun making which is kept up to
the speed limit all through the en-
tertainment when not interrupted by
the musical features which are said
to be numerous and of a high order.
The roster of soloists include such
splendid voices as David Morris, a
phenomenal basso; James Barardi,
tenor; Leslie Berry, baritone; S. B.
Gilletti, tenor; Jonathan How, tenor;
A1 Palmer tenor, and George F.
Peduzzi, tenor, in addition to a
chorus promised as particularly pow-
erful in voices and numbers. The
special orchestra will be conducted by
M. J. I-atham.
The half dozen olio features include
a new act by Nell O'Brien, in which
he plays the principal character, and
which is entitled "Darktown's Bravest
Fighting the Flames."
A big new dancing number intro-
ducing several entirely new and novel
features has been satged by Pete
Detzel. and is said to be the most
elaborate act of its kind ever staged.
During this number several features
will be Introduced, including the ap-
pearance of George F. Peduzzi,*" a
European female impersonator who
has won renown for his magnificent
gowns and wonderfully deceptive
makeup. It also affords an oppor-
tunity for Eddie Maxier and Major
Nowak to introduce a little skit of
mirth provoking qualities, and Pete
Detzel in a new and absurdly gro-
tesque terpsichorean effort that it al-
ways convulsing. The closing num-
ber conceived and staged, by Mr.
O'Brien Is said to be in the nature of
a surprise and out of the ordinary,
enlisting the services of the entire
company with some beautiful and
artistic scenic effects.

German Side of the War.
When the Chicago Tribune's mo-
tion pictures showing the German
Side of the War are shown at the
Temple theatre next Monday and
Tuesday the local public will have an
opportunity to see actual happenings
at the front, according to the press of
other cities where the films have been
exhibited. The concensus of opinion
seems to be that the films have
brought to this country the freshest
news from the battle line, as has yet
arrived.
The Chicago publication sent Ed-
win E. Weigle, a staff photographer,
to the German front with Instruc-
tions to get the real fact of the con-
flict.
Probably what is the most remark-
able piece of photography Welgle
brought home with him. is the shell-
ing of a fortress op the Russian bor-
der^ He has actually photographed
the bombardment of the fortress,
showing the terrific effect of a 30-
centlmeter projectile, when it strikes
a fortification. You see rocks and
dirt thrown high in the air. You

the men who have been defending the
fortress flee for their lives. Not all
of them escaped as the rain of steel
hail from the machine guns cut them
down or they are lost as a shrapnel

This wonderful photography was
