The Theatres

WASHINGTON The absorbing story of "The Miracle Man," which was staged by George M. Cohan to the delight of thousands of New York theatre-goers, has been adapted to the screen and is showing at the Washington Theatre today and tomorrow. It is a Para-mount-Artcraft picture of the finest class. ' The central figure in the Btory is a patriarch in a little village who possesses the power to heal the sick and tnaimed. Tom Burke, a New York -gangster, and his pals scheme to use him as a means of enriching them-

vselves. With this view, they visit him Jand are astounded to discover that

His power to heal is absolutely bonafide. How the good that lies latent in the crooks is brought out, is the theme of the drama, which is one of the most striking yet produced. Prominent in 'the strong cast are Thomas Meighan, Elinor Fair, Joseph J. Bowling and i3etty Compson.

Bayard Veiller, author of

HoIIingsworth spent Sunday afternoon with Mrs. Noami Plankenhorn. Several from this place are attending church at Williamsburg. Protracted meeting is in progress at that place, conducted by Rev, Morris of the M. E. church.

, refutation of the oft-heard assertion that the transfer of a play from th tage to the screen always results in a loss of its value. "The Thirtcnth Chair," Pathe predicts, will establish a record which few other motion picture ever attained.

MURRAY. "Fiddlers Three," which comes to the Murray theatre, Thursday, Dec. 4, matineo and night, has received the highr; t commendations. Full of humor snd romance, and teaming wonderfully clever lilt ins? tunffi, "Fiddlers Three" i r.n offering that is musically and delightfully entertaining. John Cort, the producer, has supplied a company of unusual and capable players. In T,v. io Beige he has an artist with a voice of rii-h quality, valume and puri'v and illuminates the musical coui---d'." sti' in no uncertain manner. Torn Binplc with his unctuous turn of t rs-iu-;d;. nds .no touch of gaiety to iV.ie piece, as ho is a comedian who nc-w3 the value of comedy. Edna Morn, whose graceful dancing has brought her into the limelight of success, Kathrin Ward, Ethel Dwyer, Leo Trankol, J. Rabilno, the master cf the violin. Thomas Conkey, with his rare

"baritone voice, and Layman and Kilns ! with Their sensational dancing, fill out j :a cast of versatile players. "Fiddlers ; Three" has much charming music and a chorus of equally attractive, girls, that makes it thoroughly good enter- i tainment and it has been catalogued j as one of the real hits of the year. ; MURRAY VAUDEVILLE I

"It is to laugh," may be appropri.ately applied to the new bill at the IMurray, for these acts are built for j llaugbing purposes only, and kept the Uiouse last night in near hysterics, j Jack and Eva Arnold came close to i "stopping the show" in the first posi- j lion, with their songs and comedy, and then came Baker and Rogers, two Strand comedians who fairly "wrecked f the show." These two boys are the i biggest hits ever seen at the Murray. ! Carman's minstrels close the hill with j fa. first part offering which many con-1 'cede to be better than Neil O'Brien's I Tmmstrels. The comedians are funny, I while the quartet scored a tremendous ! 'hit. It is to be regretted that this hill only plays today and tomorrow, ! 'as It is supreme vaudeville la every j respect. i

Today and Tomorrow

Ths Photoplay with an amazing soul! "The Miracle Man"

Imagine the worst that the underworld can offer, suddenly come into contact with the best in life; imagine four sordid, crooked beings from New York's Chinatown suddenly thrust in the midst of all that is good and pure and kind. Imagine a bad girl brought to the light; imagine a bogus cripple healed in soul and body; imagine a confidence man come to swindle an old man, but who learns to hate filthy money. Imagine the greatest emotion of your life; imagine the purest, most ennobling, most inspiring experience your soul tan grasp and even then you will not imagine half of what "The Miracle Man" will mean to you. You will see it more than once. It is the supreme achievement of the silent art. YOUR CHILDREN'S CHILDREN WILL BE TOLD THE STORY OF THE MIRACLE MAN

TODAY AND WEDNESDAY ONLY We hope every vaudeville lover will see this bill for it's the best we have ever booked. NOMINE CARMANS MINSTRELS
