tiful woman on earth," his immediate change from aversion to adoration, from loathing to love, from repugnance to raving, and the deadly earnestness with which he woos his lady fair, furnishes the most delicious humor, humor of the kind that will make you hark back to the days when you, too, could look and be lost. But the lady is not to be won too easily. Daliou (Taylor Holmes) must prove his love in many ways and must endure Innumerable hardships before she will look with favor upon him. However, Dallon accomplishes all the tasks set for him. and in the characteristically delightful manner which individualises all of this star's work. There're miles of smiles awaiting the lucky patrons of the Washington theater who sees "A Regular Fellow" on Monday Tuesday nights of the coming week. Pauline Frederick in "The Woman on the Index" is presented by Goldwyn at the Washington theater beginning Wednesday. Audiences are promised no end of suspense, thrills and big surprises.

Sylvia Martin is a poor girl who in driven from home by the greed and heartlessness of her father. Fainting In a doorway, she is pitied by a passerby, a man, who carries her into a warm room. It is the rendezvous of a band of crooks of which he is the leader. In time Sylvia marries him, Ignorant of his status.

She is accused of his murder and is held as an accessory in the robbery. Eventually she Is freed and subsequent events bring about her

WASHINGTON. When on Sunday the picture "When a Man Rides Alone'.' will be seen at the Washington theater, the public will witness the first "super-western" picture ever made. The subject, a production by William Russell's own company, in which he is the dominant character is creating a sensation. Never before has such tremendous romance been thrown on the silver

It has generally been thought that

cowboys, ' Indians, cactus, gambling dens and wild life constituted western photoplays "and usually a streak of love has held them together. But William Russell holds more than that in this production. He has big, living and strong romance, tremendous and enthralling charm and the true spirit of a life' where duty is all and death is nothing. And yet, where love is more than all. This picture is the beginning of the renaissance of the western film drama, or at least the beginning of a rehab

ilitating period of -a phase of film production which has lagged of late. Remember your first love affair? Or, if you never had one, surely you have watched with wicked glee the burning passion of a love-sick youth in the throes of bis first love affair. But Taylor Holmes, as "A Regular Fellow," is even more delightful. A woman-hater until be gazed into the blue, blue eyes of the "most beau-

anticipated.

"The Indestructible Wife" with Alice ' Brady, which Select Pictures presents

at the Washington theater Friday and Saturday, is a story of an athletic young wife whose husband becomes tired after playing one set of tennis. Charlotte Or d way, the strenuous bride ot Jimmy Ordway, brings her young husband back from their honeymoon exhausted after the strenuous life she

has made him lead. Jimmy decides that something must be done with Charlotte to tire her out. One day he meets Brandy, a professional athlete and an old college friend of his. He sees in him just the person to do the trick. Brandy finds in the indegatigable Charlotte a woman after bis own heart the first female he has ever met who can go as long and as hard as he can. Jimmy, left alone, consoles himself by making love to Julia Cleves. Brandy tells Charlotte about Jimmy's little affair and suggests that Charlotte leave her husband and marry him. Charlotte is loath to believe that Jimmy is in love with another woman until Brandy proves it to her, by showing her Jim and Julia sitting together

in a corner of the arbor. Charlotte upbraids Jimmy. Jim decides to tame Charlotte as Pfttruchio tamed the Shrew. He lassops her and carries her off in an automobile to his boathouse, where he ties her up. Charlotte secretly enjoys the situation. Brandy takes it all in earnest and decides to rescue her. First, however, he indulges in familiarities of an objectionable sort. Charlotte bursts her fetters and throws Brandy down the boathouse steps into the water. Jim sees him fall in and comos rushing to his wife. He seizes her in his arms and by means of apologies, kisses and explanations, all is mads smooth sailing. MURRAY The cruel methods adopted by Hun spies in the accomplishment of their designs, are admirably depicted in "Come On In," the Initial John Emerson-Anita Loos production for Paramount, starring Shirley Mason and Ernest Truex, the new Paramount stars, which will be shown at the Mur-

she escapes unhapplness by a narrow margin and ultimately weds her little admirer, the former sergeant who has been promoted to be lieutenant. The photoplay, which was written by John Emerson and Anita Loos, has a military atmosphere which will be found quite refreshing. The supporting players are of the best. ANOTHER GOOD BILL BOOKED FOR MURRAY

What looks like another good bill Is scheduled to open at the Murray Monday for the first half. Roach and MoCurdy who will supply the comedy, have one of the best two' acts In vaudeville. They are delineators of "rube" characters, Mr. McCurdy winning fame for himself some few years ago as the "constabool" in William Brady's "Way Down East" Company. This act is said to be screamingly funny. Bertie Fowler, a young lady who has told stories and offered her Imitations over the Keith circuit for severa'. seasons, will be the single act of the bill. Another interesting feature will be the Arco Brothers, who are billed as sensational gymnasts. Shirley Mason and

Ernest Truex In their latest Para

mount scomedy "Come On lu," will be the pictorial attraction. These folks are both new stars on the Famous Players' program, but advance report indicates they are coming strong, and will soon rank with their fellow stars who have already arrived. This bill plays the first half only.

Comptroller Warwick ot the treasury, ruled today that the act of congress . appropriating three million dollars for acquisition by the public health service of the Speedway hospital project at Chicago, was not mandatory and that if the service desires, it might spend the money for a hospital or sanitarium

built by Chicago interest with the expectation that it would be taken over by the war department. When the de

partment failed to accept it a bitter controvrsy arose which was aired be

WASHINGTON, May 3. Whether It was the effect ot Lent or perhaps a new sense ot the government's needs, aroused by the Victory loan campaign, govrnment officials do not know, but the treasury conscience fund has received a new series of contributions in the last several days. Two ot them came from the nation's capltol, one for $15 and the other for $1. Charlarol, Pa., contributed 3, Newport, $L and New York one dollar each, and $22 came from an unidenti

fied donor whose postmark even was illegible. ,
