CesarThomson Will Give First American Concert Here Monday Cesar Thomson, eminent violinist, who gives his first American recital next Monday night in the I.S.P.E. gymnasium, has not only played in practically all the larger European cities and where he was practically lionized by the people, but has been decorated by no less than eight crowned heads.

His life since coming to America has been given up abso lutely to his violin, composing and writing and teaching, although in Europe he was quite active socially, as well. In 1877.

Professor Thomsou married the Countess Louise Riva, who remained in Europe. The Italian Artistic Journal, II Lavoa, Naples, has the following to say of Cesar Thomson: "In the last exhibition of modern art at Venice among the best of the bronze exhibits are uniformly distinguished from their fellows by their friendly spirit of aid, their tolerance and their charity. When Theodore Roberts came to the movies, his sphere of usefulness seemed sadly limited. Old men parts, at the time, were scarcely more than "bits," and to feature an actor in such parts was beyoud the wildest thoughts of any producer or director. He was a utility man in the 6tudio, and nothing more.

Production In those days was more of a haphazard affair than it is today and actors in makeup were often held idle on the "lots" for days while waiting a call. Roberts, witty, good natured and always interested, made a peculiar place for himself at the studio. He was the official referee of checker games. He was the third man at the table whero the most interesting game was in progress, and the measure of his interest was the unlight-ed and vigorously chewed cigar stub he held in his mouth. That Cigar.

One day, so the story goes, Roberts, suddenly called from his chair at a checker game to his part on the set, forgot to discard the cigar stub in his mouth, and in was the head of "Cesar the celebrated violinist of interna tional repute, known of all races for glittering 6alons of the period and to feel the atmosphere that went with the paniers, ornate gowns and powdered wigs.

Madam de Pompadour, du Barry, and finally the gay young queen Marie Antoinette appeared almost in person, some of the costumes being replicas of those worn by these ladies. The enormous wigs, some of them crowned with miniature ships at full sail, or towers of ribbon and roses, gave rise to much amusement, and Mrs. Robinson's talk, which included frequent quotations from old chronicles of the period and descriptions of famous costumes, was most entertaining.

For indeed in Cesar Thomson deep and brilliant eyes, dwells not only altogether reliable. "There is a remarkable agreement betwen Genesis and geology," declared Doctor Riley, who said that "the teaching of evolution Is an attempt to explain the universe without God." At this point he told of an Indian boy who was first taught to believe the earth to be flat and later in a Christian School was taught that it was round. The boy was asked which he believed and he replied he thought both to be true. "That boy should be brought to America and educated in a university," said the speaker. "His mind is the typical modernist mind and not dissimilar from that of some of your local pastors." "All science needs is a suggestion and it will do the rest.

The whole theory of evolution is Godless." In the Bible it says that 'to each 6eed it is given to bring forth or its If that were not true and to be proven, we would soon' have such a nightmare of mixtures and unheard of beings beyond imagination. It is plainly shown in the scriptures that God created the world and any theory to the contrary is atheistic. "The teaching of science as carried on in our schools today, continued Doctor Riley, "is a cowardly and contemptible practice which returns children to parents as infidels, bruised in souj and blind to the true facts of the origin of man. He declared that he had but little sympathy with the legislation which had removed the Bible from public schools and which still permitted "atheistic science to be taught In its place." "Teachers are getting away with it because they are dealing with youngsters, but they never could do it with a man," he said at the close. "It would be more courageous to beat up and almost kill a young boy or girl on the grounds that they must fight life's battles and need training for it of a pugilistic nature, than to injure their souls and minds with the training.

and precepts which are now bruising and blinding them." Doctor Riley expressed the beliet that bis attitude toward the theory is correct and during the course of his address declared that he "would be glad to meet any professor in your university any night in this place and let the audience judge who has the truth with him." thought of the game he had left, rolled it in his- mouth while taking part in a scene. Discovering bis oversight, he tossed the offending stub away with true vigor in the course of action before the camera, with visions of a reprimand and a re-take of the scene on the following day, but the director, viewing the "rushes," found that his "old man" had registered In a new way, and thereafter Theodore Roberts did most of his acting before the screen with a cigar in action. Roberts was a friend, and a good foil for Wallace Reid, and had Reid heeded his advice, kindly and unof-fensive, the pair would have gone on to greater success on the screen, for they were cast together in most of Reid's pictures. All told, Roberts has probably appeared iu more feature screen plays than any other actor who ever faced the camera, and really made a part 8-page Radio Section FOUR BIG NEWS SECTIONS great gentleness, which means real goodness, but ther-burns also the light of a tremendous intellect." Geneva Officer Dies, Victim of Bandits Aeneas McDonald, the Geneva policeman who was shot three times through the stomach early Monday morning by a bandit suspect, died the following night at the Geneva City Hospital. His slayer, Harry Roberts of Boston, to whom he was handcuffed by the policeman before he lost consciousness, is being held by the authorities.

An alleged accomplice of Roberts, who gave the name of Edward J. O'Neill, alias-Eddy Duffy of Buffalo, Corning and Salamanca, was captured late Tuesday night in an Italian house on the outskirts of the city. He was suffering from a gunshot wound in his leg which was inflicted when he attempted to escape from the railroad yards of. the New York Central Railroad after he bad been challenged by Gae Fritz, a special policeman. O'Neill was taken from the Italian home to the police station where he is said to have confessed his implication in the attempt to rob the office safe of the New York CentralRailroad at Geneva.

An autopsy was performed on the body of the dead policeman to determine the cause of death. Before dying. Officer McDonald identified for himself. In the last few produo tions he has been a feature actor, and it was in the cards that he should be 'a 6tar, particularly after his characterization of Moses in the production of a Biblical prologue to a play.
