Awakened by a dog last night, four families in a two-story frame apartment house at 2141 and 2143 North Capitol avenue, escaped with their lives from a fire, which entirely destroyed the upper part of the building and virtually ruined the intetrior. Estimated loss was about $5,000. The dog. Rex. a shepherd, belonging to Charles Stanley, 153 McLane place, was the first to notice the fire, and began a vigorous barking. Mrs. William Warner, who lives with her husband and two children, William Jr., 9, and Betty. 8, in apartment one, thought at first that the dog was barking at someone outside. Going to the window, however, she noticed the flames of their apartment reflected in the window of an adjoining house.

Following Thurston's final performance on the stage at the Indiana theater tonight, the Indiana will close down for ten days, it was : announced today. The Indiana will reopen on Sunday, Dec. 24. with the state prepiiere of the movie version of “Alice In Wonderland” with Charlotte Henry as Alice. The weeks following will be devoted to feature movies and a ‘‘new low price of admission.” Other bookings includes Joe E. Brown in "Son of a Sailor” and "Sitting Pretty” with jack Oakie, Jack Haley. Ginger Rogers. Thelma Todd, and Hollywood's new chorus stars. Paramount in releasing “Alice in Wonderland” with its twenty-two i star cast considers this movie its national Christmas gift to America. Supporting Muss Henry as Alice are such well-known players as Gary Cooper, W. C. Fields, Jack Oakie, May Robson, Cary Grant, Baby Leßoy, Charlie Ruggles, Richard Arlen. Edna May Oliver, Polly Moran, Roscoe Ates, Louise Fazenda, Skeets Gallagher, Mae Marsh, Alison Skip worth, Ford Sterling, Leon Errol, Edward Everett Horton, Ned Sparks and many others. It is announced that under the new reopening policy, the Indiana will draw its feature movies from Paramount, Warner Brothers, First National, Radio and Columbia. The temporary pre-holiday closing of the Indiana in no way concerns the Circle, which will remain open. n tt tt ‘Blood Money’ Booked Jac Flex, manager of the Palace theater, has booked “Blood Money,” anew George Bancroft movie, for a week’s engagement starting Friday. Mr. Flex discusses “Blood Money” as follows: “The story exposes the machinations whereby imprisoned crooks are sprung, unscrupulous politicians are railroaded into office—and out of it, and mayors are made and unmade at a jerk of the thumb of the bail bond racketeer.” But Bailey, played by Bancroft, simultaneously becomes the heart interest of two women, one a society deb and the other a night club hostess. Both of them doublecross him, Elaine, the deb, through selfish ambition and Ruby, the hostess, as retaliation for a supposed wrong. “Finally Ruby hears that Bailey’s gang—those whom he has once befriended—are out to put him on the spot and she

intervenes just in time to save him from the consequences of his own short-sighted folly. “Mr. Bancroft already has many outstanding pictures to his credit, chief among them 'Thunderbolt. The Mighty,’ ‘Lady and Gent,’ and Rich Man’s Folly.’ In the latter film Miss Dee. w'ho plays the ingenue lead in Blood Money,’ was cast as his daughter. “Frances Dee, an Indianapolis girl, in less than two short years has risen from the ranks to stardom. Among the pictures in which she has appeared are ‘Silver Cord.' ’Headline Shooters’ and Rich Man's Folly.’ Her biggest break came when she was selected by Maurice Chevalier for his leading lady in ‘Playboy of Paris.’ “Chick Chandler, for two years with the Shuberts, and for the last eight years a vaudeville and burlesque headliner, also is making his bow to film audiences in ‘Blood Money.’ ” “Judith Anderson, popular Broadway star, whose outstanding success in Cobra’ a few years ago placed her in the front rank of theatrical favor, makes her screen debut in this latest Twentieth Century production, which is being released through United Artists. “ Blood Money’ is the third production of the Joseph M. SchenckDarryl F. Zanuch Company.
