Shock, hemorrhage and a punctured lung sustained when he fell down the steps of the Talbot street tower of the Great Northern railway caused the death of Mathew Strauss at St. James hospital on September 7, according to the findings of the coroner's jury at an inquest held yesterday. Everett One, towerman on the shift following Strauss, told of finding the old man leaning against one of the posts supporting the tower and groaning about 11 o'clock on the night of September 5. He and W. H. Lyman took Strauss home in Lyman's car and laid him on his bed. With the exception of Frank Simperman, a neighbor, Strauss told no one of the manner in which he was injured. According to Simperman the old man told him he fell down the last three or four steps of the tower as he was going off shift and fell heavily on a concrete flooring. He was attended by Dr. R. H. Kane, who told of the man's injuries at the inquest. W. H. Lyman, W. J. Feezey, Frank Maddock and William Early were other witnesses who testified. # Amusements ### ANSONIA. Romance and thrill mingle with comedy to make Harold Lloyd's new feature Pathecomedy, "Girl Shy," now at the Ansonia, a suitable introduction for him to the American public as an independent producer. It was while making part of the thrill action for this new production that Lloyd received the injury which laid him low for two weeks and necessitated the taking of six stitches in his head. Before making this particular scene, Lloyd's directors, Fred Newmeyer and Sam Taylor, tried to talk the noted comedian into using a double. "It's very risky," they told him. But Lloyd refuses to let anyone take a chance that he himself would not risk, so he rode on the rear end of a hose cart driven at 35 miles an hour down a Los Angeles boulevard. This was the stunt which led to his injury. A fractious fire nozzle got away from Lloyd, striking him with trip-hammer force across the forehead and knocking him off the fire engine. For a minute the other members of the Lloyd company who witnessed the accident thought he had suffered a fractured skull, but it was soon apparent that while painful, the injury would not prove really serious. Lloyd received immediate treatment at the home of a nearby physician, but it was several days before he recovered from the shock. The scene in which Lloyd was hurt is a prominent part of the thrill sequence in "Girl Shy," and the danger of the situation is said to be quite palpable upon the screen. ### TEMPLE THEATER When Priscilla Dean began work on "The Sireen [sic] of Seville," the great special which comes to the Temple theater today, her make-up kit was crammed with good luck wires. The wishes came true, for in this picture she gives the greatest performance of her career. "The Sireen [sic] of Seville" was written especially for the star by H. H. Van Loan, and it gives her the colorful and sparkling role of a hoydenish Spanish senorita who loves and fights for that love with all the ardor of her race. Inasmuch as Van Loan was the author of "The Virgin of Stamboul," one of Miss Dean's most popular triumphs, much is expected of this new Dean production. Jerome St[o?]rm and Hunt Stromberg directed. # *Changed class Schedule In Effect at K. C.

Standing second in percentage of increase in both finances and membership, the Woman's Missionary society of the northwest conference of the M. E. church, South, which embraces Montana, Oregon, Washington and a portion of Idaho, convened in its annual meeting in Corvallis, Ore., September 1. The women of Southern Methodism were organized into missionary societies 50 years ago. They began foreign missionary work in 1878 as a charter board of foreign missions. They now work both home and foreign missions as a unified board, under the general board of missions of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, which is composed of both men and women. The women of Southern Methodism work in eight foreign countries, and among the cotton factories of the south, the negroes, French speaking groups, Italian settlements, Polyglot communities, Cubans of Florida, Mexicans of the southwest and the Japanese and Koreans of California. They support full time workers in the home and foreign fields, including native workers, teachers, deaconesses and missionaries, to the number of about 14,000 persons. Approximately 3,000,000 women are enrolled in the missionary societies of Southern Methodism. It is estimated that for local work, city mission work, and missionary work at home and abroad, more than $2,000,000 was raised in 1923. The first regular meeting of the conference was held in the church auditorium at Corvallis. Mrs. D. M. John gave the address of welcome, and Miss Sadie B. Byron of Helena, Mont., made the response. The conference was well attended and reports are that a progressive Christian spirit was manifested throughout the entire session.
