Eugene O'Brien Coming in "His Wife's Money." i k There is an old saying that, while money cannot buy happiness, it can buy a good imitation. This may be true, but nothing that is not genuine can endure. The imitation soon be-, comes shorn of its attractiveness. In "His Wife's Money," a new Selznick picture, Marion Phillips ? seeks to buy happiness for herself and husband through the use of her [personal riches. Richard Flint, playled by Eugene O'Brien, is too much of la thoroughbred to live on his wife's wealth, and when the two are married trouble follows when Flint learns that his wife's money is helping to nav their expenses. W Eager to test Marion's love, Flint proposes they go West to work a gold mine. But the rugged West <Ioes not appeal to Marion, and whAii temntation to return to her old life presents itself in the allurements held out by James Cardwell, a former suitor for her hand and money, she goes back East. How Flint returns to the East and: I^Bthrough his Wall street operations Tuins Cardwell, and how he finally j F learns that Marion has never ceased, to love him, makes a screen story, that is filled with action, suspense,' heart interest and every necessary element of the silent drama. "His wife's Money" will bj seen at the opera house Thursday. ?? i LEGISLATORS WANT UVLK11Mb WlUWtl Buckingham Resolution to Pay Rela* tires of Person Lynched Discussed. ^ News and Courier. Columbia, Feb. 26.?Another resolution was introduced in the house this morning to provide overtime pay W for legislators. The resolution calls for $100 for each member in the two houses.

The house passed and sent to the senate the Berry bill to establish a standard tread of fifty-six inches for all vechicles after January 1, 1921. The Meares bill to provide censorship of moving picture films was con" - ? ^ UtT f U/-1 Igk unuea, aiter a unci uisiruosiuu u_v ?ir author. In the aye and nay vote, the author was the only one to vote against continuing the measure. Senator Christensen's bill to create drainage districts, to reclaim swamp ^ands and to protect lands from over flow was sent to third reading with slight amendments. The Buckingham resolution to submit in statewide referendum the ^ question of amending sccrion VI., arHfcticie 6 of the Constitution, by strikHflking out the prevision that would ren^^aer a county liable to $2,000 ciar/if-ircs to relatives of a party lynched was under debate about one hour at I ^j^^he morning: session, .vhen recess gnK-:;- taken until 8 o'clock at night. SBjSt.eriuous argument was made both for and against the measure. Those | speaking for the bill were: Buckingham, of Aiken; Dreher, of Lexington; Hart, of York, and Bellamy, of Beaufort. Those arguing against the measure were: Hanahnn, of Fairfield; James E. Davis, of barnwell, and Beiser of Sumter. Chief argument for the resolution was that the tax^ payers should not be called upoi. to pay for a mob's action. Argument against was that the sectic.. had a deterrent influence against lynching, that it was on of the basic principles of law and order and to strike it out or to send it to the people would be putting the stamp of approval on thr '*o'"/3uCt of 2 mob. The house tonight by a vote of 51 to 23 killed the resolution by M^\ ^ Buckingham, of Aiken, to relieve, J counties of damages to the amount I of $2,000 to relatives of a man killHE^ked by a mob.

The bill is likely to be amended tomorrow, calling for a statewide referendum on the question of a bond issue for this amount. An nmr>ndmf>nt to this effect has been offered. Another amendment proposes the sale of the two state farms operated by the State Penitentary, another amendment would build two wings to the State House and impose a levy of five mills to provide the fund.
