'J. NEXT WEEK AT THE !

- WASHINGTON. David Wark Griffith's new picture production, "Scarlet Days," which will t$e the attraction at the Washington STtheatre, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, la a story of California in Uhe gold rush days of '49. It is based. . Sargely , upon historical facts, as the Central tigure called Alvarez in the nilm. is really Joaquin Murietta, a sort Cpf Robin Hood of the west, who used 0 roam the highways robbing the rj-ich to give to the poor. Around this jhlyalrous desperado, Mr. Griffith has woven a story said to furnish plenty ;of thrills and heart Interest. The locale is an old-time mining town, where Jlosy Nell is queen of the dance hall. -She has a daughter in an eastern ;eeminary. Ignorant of her mother's past. On the very day the girl returns jrllosy becomes Involved In a fight with another woman In the hall. Her opponent dies suddenly from heart failure, and Rosy, accused of killing her, 3s about to by lynched when Alvarez

-appears and rescues her temporarily. 1 iThe rest of the story portrays the Successful efforts of the bandit and a blue-blood from Virginia to save the rglrl from the clutches of a bully namZBd Bagley, ending In a desperate fight and the sacrifice of Alvarez. Richard Barthelmess, who plays the iparfrof Alvarez, has appeared In several big productions. He was the one character so well liked by everyone, In "Broken Blossoms." - Folks, here's an opportunity for you -to see a picture that will bring forth Hhe laughs in great abundance. Everyone knows Avery Hopwood's stage Success, "Fair and Warmer;" Whether you ever saw it or not, you can not afford to miss the screen version, rwhich is showing at the Washington ; theatre, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. "Z, May Allison, who plays the part of ZPlanny. Wheeler, and Eugene Pallette ".:as Billy Barlett, decide that their Jjeter halves are stepping out too ?nuch. They can't help but worry over -jthelr loneliness. Then comes the night of nights, -when Blanny's husband attends a "meeting of the "Mystic Shrine," and "Billy's wife goes to the opera with another man. Blanny, who is to spend the eve"sing.with Billy, discovers some choice alcoholic liquid which was purchased Tby Billy's wife for her own use. The "two proceed to spend the evening in -''real" fashion. After finishing sev"ral bottles of champagne, they are "ready to "hit the high spots" Naturally Jack and Laura can't see he situation the same as the two innocents do, and proceedings for a double divorce are in order. But love Is a funny thing in this world. Just when everything Is the blackest, the eilver lining shows up in the dark cloud, and mutual explanations bring about a happy ending. PALACE. ; "The Rider of the Law," featuring Harry Carey, Universal's premier western star, will be seen at the Palace theatre commencing Sunday. As "Jim Kyneton, a member of the famous TTexas rangers, once the only organization making for law and order that Ithe old Lone Star state knew, Carey :lias many opportunities for a display :of his well known horsemanship. - He is forced to arrest his brother,

Nick Kyneton, who has been engaged with others of Jim's friends .in the systematic robery of the Midas gold mine. Despite the call of family ties and friendship, Jim goes through his

: task to the finish and then he comes

back to say to his widowed parent, "WellJ mother, Nick died like a man." The daredevil Nick is portrayed by Vester Pegg. Opposite Carey is seen Gloria Hope, a little auburn haired player, who has appeared before with Carey in western photodramas. RICHMOND. David Belasco himself once played a part in "La Belle Russe," the drama from his own pen which William Fox will present in motion picture form at the Richmond Theatre today with Theda Bara in the title role. The play was playing at the time in Utica, on tour under the management of Frank L. Goodwin with JeffreysLewis in the title role. Mr. Belasco, who was stage manager at a theatre in New York, had taken a week off to accompany "La Belle Russe." When Mr. Belasco arrived in Utica he found Goodwin, the manager, in a

panic. Robert Hudson, who played the family-lawyer, was ill and thwe was no one to replace him. Mr. Belasco volunteered to play the part, and was seen that night in his own play for the first, last and only time, w MURRAY Lovers oR-the terpischorean art and they are legion in this city, will have an opportunity of witnessing all the latest dances presented in an artistic by The Terpischorean Four, composed of Stone and Manning, two young men, and The Kashner Sisters who will headline the new bill opening at The Murray next Monday for the first half. Elaborate stage settings are carried, and from all advance reports lhi3 act gives evidence of being the class dance act of the season. Quite a little should be expected from them as they come here direct from the larger circuits. Vieing with the above act for headline honors will be the team of Hamilton and Barnes, a young man and girl who are . winning stellar notices in vaudeville this season. Both catry that indefinable air of "class" which appeals to refined audiences, and their offering "The Honeymoon" affords them an opportunity to exploit their wardrobe and talents. Ella La Vail, a comely young girl will be seen in a "Novel Aerial and Loop The Loop" act, consisting of wonderful feats upon the trapeze, while Gladys Brockwell will be the screen feature in her latest five-reel Fox production entitled "Thieves." Headlining the bill opening Thursday matinee will be the vaudeville sensation of the season i e., Lottie Mayer and Her Four Bathing Beauties. In order to present this act it will be necessary to strengthen the stage, install extra plumbing to heat and supply the twelve tons of water, and put on an extra stage force to erct the tank which will cover

half of the stage surface. This act

is billed as "A Musical and Bathing Fantasy", as the girls offer a dancing number before -entering the tank for their aquatio feats. This act has been prominently featured in all the leading theatres of New York, Chicago and all the larger cities, and is considered one of the best novelty acts In vaudeville. The Indianapolis Star has the following to say regarding their offering: Also on the same bill will be Morin in "A Ventriloquial Oddity"; The Stanleys In "Silhouette Fun In Shadowland" and Beatriz MIchelena in a stirring picture of the Western dance halls entitled "The Heart Of Juanita." In order to offset the immense cost of playing the Lottie Mayer act, the management will Increase the evening admission price to the lower floor five cents, making the total forty cents Including war tax, commencing Thursday for this engagement only.' Prices for matinees and balconies remain as usual. MURRAY. Rita Stanwood, who in private life is Mrs. H. B. Warner, plays opposite her celebrated husband in his latest production, "The Gray Wolf's Ghost," at the Murray today. Mrs. Warner achieved a wide reputation as an actress before retiring from the stage a year ago, for ten years having appeared in some of the greatest Broadway successes. Her lateat engagement was with "Pipes of Pan," in which she had marked success in the leading role during an extended New York run.

Economy, Ind. Jan. 29. Editor, the Palladium: Should the parents or the township furnish transportation for the high school children? We are inclined to believe the man who wrote the present law for hauling school children was not a farmer and the father of six or more children.
