the sparkling comedy, "A Successful Adventure," which will be shown at the Murray theatre on Tuesday. Knowing the vulnerables pot of her grouchy old relative, this young Southern girl showed a woman's keen intuition when she chose the "kitchen route" as the way of reaching his heart.

For genuine wholesome comedy, pep and vinegar, "A Nine O'clock Town," starring Charles Ray, whicn will be presented at the Murray theatre Wednesday and Thursday, will prove itself one of the best photoplays shown, at that popular playhouse in many months. While in a sense it is a burlesque on the business metli-

pressure throughout. And there is no denying the fact that Carlyle Blackwell succeeds In making the erstwhile doleful Bobby a very likable person, when that hero awakens from his lethargy and sets about the task of mpulding himself into a real man. The star furnishes a very clever character study of Briggs, junior, and is assisted by Evelyn Greeley, whose charms have never been exhibited to better advantage than in the role of Corinne.

This is without exception the biggest and most successful play Oliver Morosco ever presented. Its phenomenal Broadway run became the talk of the theatrical world and places "The Unchastened Woman," which comes to the Washington Monday and Tuesday, as the foremost dramatic effort of the past decade. It was writ

ten by Louis K. Enspacher, the emiV nent scholar, who with "The Un- ' chastened Woman" succeeded in being counted in the very first ranks of the foremost exponents of modern drama. Grace Valentine, the latest favorite of the stage and Bcreen, in the title role Is the super-luminary. Frank Mills heads the supporting all-star-cast, which includes Victor Sutherland, Catherine Tower. Paul Panzer, Mildred Manning, Adelaide Barker,. Mike Donlin, besides - numbers of other well-known, popular players.

EATON, O., Sept. 7. Joseph Poos, elevator and grocery man, recovered, through the police, a pocketbook he lost Thursday evening, containing about $16 and some valuable papers. Acting Marshal C. E. Clear recovered the pocketbook and its contents at the home of Vern McCoy, who, the officer says, found the pocketbook and had made no report of it.

J. G. Hawks, who has furnished William S. Hart as many vehicles as any author. ,is enthusiastic over his latest scenario, which is a story of the Canadian Northwest and is the

fourth Hart photoplay produced by Thomas H. Ince for Artcraft. It is en

titled "'RIue Blazes' Rawden." and

Mr. Hawks' contention is that -"Bill" Hart is always big and convincing in any atmosphere and that his admirers will welcome nn incursion into new territory.

"Prince Zilah." written by Jules Clar-

etie, the famous French dramatist She portrays two roles in this picture,

one bing that of Marsa, a Russian gypsy girl, the other, her mother, of the same name. The name of James Whitcomb Riley Is better known than that of any other

poet who achieved fame in the last , half century. "A Hoosier Romance" j

is one of the mst beautiful love stories ever told and it Is considered by many critics to be the poet's masterpiece. Made into a picture play by Selig for Mutual, "A Hoosier Romance" be

life close to the realities and narrow prejudices of fifty years ago, when farmers' wives were slaves and farmers' daughters vassals of their men folk a hard-driven, deeply religious, but narrow-minded lot, ground under V. the heel of the farm mortgage mark.

Colleen Moore, a talented young i

fctar, plays Patience Thompson, and is supported by Thomas Jefferson, whose high title to fame in the United States rests on his speaking stage performance of "Rip Van Winkle," but whose picture appearances In :"The Romance of Blllygoat Hill." "A Child

of Mystery" and "Polly. Put the Kettle On" have made his name well known to film patrons. Showing at the Murrette Sunday and Monday.

The woman was one of the leaders of a Mexican gang which started out to kill the American and steal his property, but In a fit of remorse she gave him warning of the polt.

Once Mae Marsh confided to an interviewer that she longed to play Cleopatra. Then she said laughingly that she kntw that could never be. But strangely enough her ambition or part of it is realized in her newest Goldwyn Picture, "Money Mad." She is not the Egyptian queen, but she does assume her garb and becomes a fortune-teller, dominating a series of powerful scenes. .
