Indiana Tells -

Story of State True to Facts

"Indiana," the chronicle of your

etate in pictures, at the Coliseum

Tuesday and Wednesday. James Whitcomb Riley, Indiana's beet loved eon.

tells the story. Yes, James Whitcomb Riley himself. It Is the first time he

has appeared In a motion picture pro

duction. It probably will be the last.

He is doing it for love of Indiana. Governor Samuel M. Ralston and the members of the Indiana Historical

commission, as well as hundreds of other Hooslers are taking part in the

picture, for the same reason love of their native etate.

Boys and girls will want to see this

picture. It visualizes the history of their state as no printed word can

possibly do. History is faithfully re

produced In this picture. The State

Historical commission has gone over

the films from beginning to end and

has approved them. It Is the last word

in motion pictures. There is nothing

like it in all the motion picture world.

It 18 a picture of a thousand thrills

yet crowded with scenes in which the

pursuits of peace are abundantly gnown. You see George Rogers Clark at Vlncennes. You see Gen. William Henry Harrison at the Battle of Tippecanoe and the burning of Prophetstown. You see the first constitutional convention debating the momentous question; Shall Indiana come into .the Union slave or free. You see Abraham Lincoln as the boy laying the foundation, of future greatness, in his forest home in Indiana. THURSDAY. The appearance at the Coliseum on Thursday of George Beban in the new World film production, "The Pawn of Fate," should be of exceptional interest to all motion picture patrons. As a delineator of character types, Mr. Beban stands alone and the hundreds of thousands of motion picture enthusiasts who enjoyed his powerful impersonation in "An Alien" will be delighted to know that in "The Pawn of Fate" this remarkable actor gives another vfvlTl characterization, unique in screen Impersonations.

The great sacrifice a sister makes to protect her sister's good name even though it may cause her to be banished from the home and hearth cherished so much by one, always makes an interesting film drama. But in the hands of Alice Brady, who plays the

role of the sacrificing sister, this pas- j

total drama is more than a mere photoplay. Her wonderful work can be seen to the best of advantage in "Tangled Fates," the sweet pastoral, "Brady-Made" World film production, which will be t,he feature at the Coliseum tomorrow and Monday.

range, had finished the roundup, and after weeks of longing to visit tovn, arrived and found that the prohibi-j tion wave had preceded and that the ! town was as dry as the Sahara desert! The cowboys in the Mutual-Mustang-Western drama, , "With a Life at Stake." shown at the Theatorium today, encountered this situation, and what happened to them in their search for pleasure makes the funniest Western photoplay ever screened. . It contains not only clean wholesome fun, but also some exciting scenes that thrill the most hardened picture fan. WEDNESDAY. The terrors of man-eating beasts of the forest are shown at the Theatorium Wednesday when the photoplay, entitled. "The Ordeal." will be shown. Rostock animals add to the tense situations to be met with in the uncivilized wilds of Africa when a capitalist Is suddenly called upon to brave the strenuous life with his beautiful daughter. The Blackfeet Indians, who were

the redeeming fires of a great love. Bessie Barxiscale most capably impersonates the despised girl of the streets and undergoes a- transformation which is virtually miraculous, and the nobility of her acting will linger in the minds of all who see this uplifting drama.

Mary Fuller Plays Vampire In Lyric Film

"A Huntress of Men." at the Lyric Sunday, the latest Red Feather photo

play, has many claims to distinction, j ing as a Jap.

First of all, it furnishes Mary Fuller, "the idol of millions." as she has been justly called, with a role as congenial to her as it Is unusual. Miss Fuller has not been associated in the minds of her admirers with the vampire type of part, but she is not known as one of the most ver-

Toes. & Wed., June 13 & 14 Grown-ups, as well as the boys and girls, will want to see the great events of two centuries of Hoosierland on the screen. BegiEiiis with iQ oomlas of LaSalle in 1679, the picture carries you aloes swiftly, breathlessly down the years to the present day. You see the Indiaas raz.rr.hxs the trackless forests. You see the coming of the pioneer fathers and mothers, those sturdy, courageous men and women, fighting their way through the wilderness to build homes for those who were to come after. You see George Rogers Clark at Vlncennes. You see Gen. William Henry Harrison at the Battle of Tippecanoe and the burning of Prophetstcv-n. You see the first constitutional convention debating the momentous question: Shall Indiana come into the Union slave or free. You see Abraham Lincoln, the boy, laying the foundation of future greatness in his forest home in Indiana. You see hundreds of heart stirring scenes too numerous for mention here. But don't forget the famous raid of John Morgan into southern Indiana. The wild ride of these dashing confederates and their final defeat by raw Indiana troopers, will be one of the big thrills in this picture. Approved by Indiana Historical Commission, Governor S. M. Ralston, President,. 1816-1916.
