MURRETTE In these days of short skirt and shorter bathing suits it sounds almost sTinbellevat)le to find, a motion picture actroes who comes out unqualifiedly for the comfortable concealing garb of other years. But there Is one female character In "The Pour Horsemen of the Apocalypse," a Rex Ingram produca M . r 4. a- 1 t - A 11
rette theatre for one week, beginning Sunday, who doesn't care a hoot about
the latest Paris creations and who j
was so set In her antipathy to the moders costumes that she appeared In the picture In her o.vn dress. This actress with very much of a mind of her own la a full-blooded Cheyenne Indian, with a picturesque and long drawn out name, which as a matter of convenience and sentiment. Director Ingram shortened to "Minnehaha.' - Minnehaha makes her appearance In the film version of the novel of Vlncento Blasco Ibanez very early in the picture as a sort of maid of all work on the big ranch of Madariaga, the Centaur, in South America and when he dies and the family is broken up, she goes aa an old retainer with the Desnoyers to Paris. For the Argentina scenes the old Indian woman was right in her element.
but when the Desnoyers family moved to Paris it vas desired that she be attired in the more civtliied garb so as to carry out the idea of the change in the family in making their residence in Paris. For one rehearsal Minnehaha appeared in the tight waist, the abbreviated skirt and. high heeled slippers. PALACE One of the most realistlo sandstorms ever seen will he witnessed in the James Oliver Curwood's picture, "The Girl From Porcupine," which' comes to the Palace Sunday. The action of the story calls for the annihilation of a number of prairie schooners in a desert during a terrifflc sandstorm; all perish save two young children who are saved from death by a couple of old prospectors who find them after the storm, which has killed . their parents and scattered the caravan to pieces. This 6cene was staged on the beach of Old Orchard, ' Maine, but the beholder, would not dream that it was not made in the middle of Sahara Desert, so realistic is it. After the location had been decided upon,' the wagons and horses secured and the people rehearsed ia their parts, the services of a dozen aeroplanes were called into play. These machines were brought into line behind the camera and director and at the given word their motors were started; the result of the pressure from the twelve propellers being so great that the sand was driven across the beach with such terriffio force that it was impossible for the actors to even stand in its path. j WASHINGTON " A rushing, roaring eweep of resistie waters released from bondage a tnighty torrent of timber crushing, grinding all before it logs bumping,

splintering in the snarling waterssweeping all before its relentless path. Such is one of the big thrills in "Conflict." The most gripping, soul-searing moment ever filmed. Terriflo in its intensity, the mighty log jam, the blowing up of the dam, and the swashing torrent of felled forest is the mightiest spectacle of the camera's art.
In all its splendor, in all its ruth

The feature act will be "Our Future Home," featuring the Densmore Sisters and Lou Howland. "Our Future Home" is from the pen of Arthur Anderson, a young ! writer with most original ideas and a clever knack of knowing Just how to produce them, as In the present offering, while the act might be termed a harmony singing trio. " Sid Lewis, "The Original Nut," is also on this bill. He is an unusual single act and unlike others he does not follow the slate routine of patter. Conditions have everything to7 do with his "efforts and nothing ean stop his flow of comedy talk which is spontaneous. If he can't make an audience howl , with Joy. there is no laugh in them. Completing the bill are the acts of Carlos and Dufries, in a potpourri of vaudeville mixture entitled "Things Mixed"; and Dorothy Bard and company in "Bits From the Garden, of Melody." Coming Thursday will be a wellknown feature act which is a standard attraction in all big city theatres. Schafer, Weymer and Carr are a

to the bottom of the rocky chasm a hundred Xeet below. No chances were being taken, for it was a scene from "The Face of the World," under the direction of Irvin V. Wlllat. which could not be made again. Mr. Willat had a soft spot in his heart for this car as he piloted it many a mile over California roads. It was his own personal car. Earlier that morning his new car had been delivered, and instead of turning this one in on the price of a new one, he decided at the last moment to use the old one for the wreck scene, which plays such an important part in "The Face of the World," which, by the way. will be a feature at. the Murray theatre beginning Monday.

Also on this bill are Smiletta Brothers and Adair, a comedy triple horizontal bar act; Wills and Robblns, two comedians in "His Day Off," and the Melroy Sisters in a novelty dance offering. MURRAY "All right, boys, let her go." This command rang out clear in the crisp morning air, as down the road sped the runaway automobile like a beautiful little greyhound taking a spurt for a hurdle. Four cameramen cranked madly. The scene could be taken but once, for this handsome car was on its way to its own destruction. The sign across the road pointed to the detour informing all passers-by that the bridge was under repair. With a mighty crash the car sped through the sign, breaking it to fragments, and out over the bridge as straight as an arrow. Suddenly, as if given wings for the moment, it sailed into space, and, turning over and over, crashed
