The Theatres

NEIL O'BRIEN'S MINSTRELS With silken banners unfurled, Neil

O'Brien's Minstrels made its appearance In thi3 city today. An afternoon and evening performance is being given at the Murray theatre. There will

be nothing old in this year's performance, so Mr. O'Brien promises. There

will be new scenery, new costumes,

new jokes and new thrills. Mr. O'Brien

has been engaged all during the past summer in gathering together material for this year's performance and prom

ises that it will be the best one that

he has ever given.

MURRAY

William Collier as butler in "The

Servant Question," a Select picture,

should mean a great deal to the dis

criminating theatre-goer, and the many patrons of the' Murray theatre will doubtless be delighted to know that

this is to be the attraction at this popular place of amusement next Thursday.

While Mr. Collier is the big shining

light of this screen comedy, just as he

is the outstanding figure of every stage production he has appeared in, he has nevertheless surrounded himself with

the best of talent in the supporting

cast. Of great interest i3 the fact that

the next prominent role in "The Servant Question" is enacted by William Collier, Jr., or "Buster," as he is more familiarly called, and observant spec

tators will affirm, after seeing the

youngster work, that he is a veritable "chip off the old block."

Dainty Virginia Lee i3 leading lady,

Armand Cortez is the bold, bad villain

and Rapley Holmes is cast in. an im

portant role.

The story is one constructed by Mr.

Collier for laughing purposes only, but

it has a well-defined dramatic plot,

which, however, Mr. Collier handles

in his own inimitable way.

HONOLULU, Sept. 20. The Nippi:

S00 earthquake shocks have been, registered in Formosa within two weeks, culminating in a violent disturbance Saturday, which destroyed several buildings. It was reported no Iive3 were lost.

MURRETTE The correct side on which to rest a

harp, proved a point which threatened

considerable delay during tne maKing of "Blood and Sand" Rodolph Valentino's first Paramount star picture which is being shown at the Murrette theatre this week. Tho harp was to be played by Nita Naldi in a passionate love scene with the star and it had to be accurately done. Some said right, some said left. And as there was a difference of opinion, messengers were dispatched post haste to telephones. When the votes were finally counted the "Rights" won by an overwhelm

ing majority. For a while, however, there was considerable doubt and although there may be only 3,000 harp players in the United States it is certain that if Director Fred Niblo had allowed Nita Naldi to play it wrong 2,999 letters proclaiming the fault would be received. "Blood and Sand" was adapted by June Mathis, from the story of Spanish life by Vicente Blasco Ibanez, author of "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse." It is a Fred Niblo production, photographed by Alvin Wyckoff. Included in the cast are Lila Lee, Walter Long, George Field, Fred Becker, Leo White, Rose Rosanova, Charles Belcher, Gilbert Clayton and Jack Winn.
