MURRAY. , Peerless In emotional portrayal, Madaline Traverse, the William Fox star, opened an engagement Thursday at the Murray theatre In "What Would You do?" a thrilling pho:odrama that deals with misfortune, chance and love. ." ?". As Claudia, the wife who sacrifices her all for the man she loves, and who later she believes to be dead,' this versatile star rises to extraordinary heights of emotional acting. It Is a story of a modern Enoch Arden who returns home after a long absence .only to find that the wife he loves has been married to another man. The play abounds in tense scenes which tax the strength of every member of the cast. As Lily Brainerd, the - erring wife of Claudia's brother-in-law, Lenore Lynard does som very creditable acting. George McDaniel and Frank Elliott are well cast sta the husband and the man for whom Claudia suffers teriffic mental anguish. Others in the cast include Cordelia Callahan, Charles K. French, Bud Geary and Edwin Booth Tilton. Denison Clift wrote the story and the scenario. . MURRETTE.

Anita Stewart makes a startling leap on horseback over a broken budge above a chasm, taking great . risks, in a scene from the First Nat

ional feature, "In Old Kentucky," in which she stars. This great American : classic will be shown the last time today at the Murrette theatre. The bridge is a draw over a ravine more than 100 feet deep. But the draw has been wrecked. In the atory it is necessary for Miss Stewart to

leap over this broken draw to reach a

man who is lying unconscious in the

road far beneath her, where the viiuan has placed a dynamite boom beneath him. The horse on which she is mounted at first refuses to make the jump, but she smarts again, aud spurring it at the utmost speed, rides straight for the broken bridge. The horse rises to the spur and makes the jump. But it

roaches the opposite side by such a narrow margiuvihat broken bits of

the bridge are kicked from beneath its feet into the chasm beneath. Miss Stewart admits that she was terriblyfrightened, but had every confidence in the horse, as it had made greater leaps than the one taken in the picture, though never such a dangerous one. ' This thrilling scene is clearly shown in this picture, which is the story of an untutored girl, who after risking her life for her friends in the mountains, goes to the city where she wins laurels for herself. MURRAY The steamer "Robert E. Lee," that famous old boat of the Mississippi, will form the scenic background for the headline act "On the Mississippi," which comes to the Murray the first half of next week. Besides being a big scenic spectacle, this act carries five epople, and is billed as ""A Smooth Sailing Southern Serenade," which presages the fact that patrons are going to be treated to rare dancing, songs of the Southland and ' comedy sayings and situations. The following is the cast: The Mammy. Happy Golden: The Girl. Margaret Dawson: The Captain, B. Spears: The Dancer, Frank Covert; The Comic, Billy Doss. Scene: On the Robert E. Lee. Discovered sitting on a brick wall in a swell residential disjtrict of a large city, we will see Winchell and Green at the opening of their comedy offering, "Puppy Love." They sing a spoony song, tell funny qulbs and close with a dance of the jazz variety which sends them away big. Art Smith, "Society Entertainer," is also cn the bill with a routine of clever songs and stories. This young man is from the larger city circuits where he is a" pronounced favorite. Eddie Clayton and Frank Lennie, two clever boys whose comedy act, "Did You See Mary?" is well known wherever bigtime vaudeville is played, will headline the bill opening Thursday for the last half. It is useless to attempt to describe their act,, as they are of the "nut specie," and we can only vouchsafe the information that they will make you laugh long and hard. Arthur Angel and . Violet Fuller will present their comedy skit entitled "Old As He Feels," which portrays the flirtations of an old roue with young ideas, with a young miss of 1920. When Miss Fuller sings a "bit of Jazz" to the old man lie quite forgets his years, and displays his ability as a jazz hound also. Tom Scott and Ada Christy widely known as the "Dixie Boy and Yankee Girl" will also be present with their delightful comedy skit which they term "I Saw You First," interpolated with some excellent song and dance numbers. The picture for the first half will be William Desmond in his latest five-reel fox production, and the last half, Bessie Barriscale will be seen in her latest production, "Her Purchase Price," in which Miss Barriscale appears as an Egyptian beauty in Oriental raiment who is sold for her beauty. PALACE. One would think that every thrill, every act of reckless daredeviltry, had been injected in William S. Hart uhotodramas. However, this famous Western character always figures in home new and startling adventures. For instance, in "The Narrow Trail," the initial Ince-Artoraft picture, which will be seen at the Palace on Sunday, Hart portrays an outlaw who falls under the influence of a beautiful girl. He loves her with all the desnerate

passion of which his wild nature is ' capable, and determines to reform. In ! doing this, his source of income is i

it is during this wild ride with its throngs of contesting cowboys that excitement rises to its highest pitch. RICHMOND. William Farnum puts one of the most dramatic and intense fights ever staged Into the thrilling ending of his new photoplay, "Wolves of the Night," a fight into which Farnum throws himself with the agility of an athlete and the skill of a champion. As the desperate man, resolved to win back wife, child and fortune, from devilish schemers, he locks himself in an office, attacks three who attempt to coerce hi mwith a pistol, and there in as stirring an encounter as has ever been picturized. baffles them. This fight, which is Just one of the many Intense scenes In that compelling - photoplay of love and finance.

It proves that Farnum, handsome, magnetic though he is, is no mere matinee idol, but a man's man for all - his charm, and a man of power into the bargain.
