MURRAY I George Eliot's greatest story, "Silas Marner, 'has been picturized for As

sociated Exhibitors in six reels and will be shewn Sunday at the Murray theatre. Arranged for the screen and directed by Frank P. Donovan, an in

troductory title in the film says, "It is in deference to public intelligence that this photographic edition of 'Silas

Marner, save for minor rearrangement that time limitation of the thea

tre exacts, has been faithfully pic

turized as it is written."

This, indeed, should be great news

to the many who nave aespaired when they have seen their favorite stories distorted beyond all recognition in order to make. a photoplay, as well as to

those who nave read and studied George Eliots story and love it. As conceived by George Eliot, "Silas Marner" has everything that goes to make good motion picture entertainment. It is a gripping, poignant, exquisitely tender human interest story of red-bloded homey folks. There is a of red-blooded homey folks. There is cruel deception and deep sympathy in the plot. And these charms of the story lend themselves admirably to the screen. Craufurd Kent, well known as a leading man of unusual charactlr ability, plays the title role, "and is assisted by a large cast, prominent therein be

ing Marguerite Courtot, Robert Kenyon, Bradley Barker, Anders Randolph, George Facwett, Marie Edith Wells, John Randall and many others.

dations founded on the latest and most widely accepted biblical criticisms. The staff lor Mr. Walker's company is comprised o": Manager with company, Robert W. MacBride; press representative, John Martin; stage manager, Robert McGroarty; master carpenter, Michael Fitzgibbon; master electrician, Russell - Naramore; property master, N. J. Serres. A brilliant organization is the trio of musicians of the "Book of Job" company composed of Jean Orloff, violinist, Lenora Coffin, pianist, and Genieve Hughel, violoncellist. Recognition has been won everywhere for the serious work and perfect ensemble of this group of players. Each time they have come before thpublic this unusual group of musicians have astonished their audiences by the extent and variety of their repertory, their ease in execution and their finish and excellency in style. There is

always a feeling of sound musician

ship behind their work which pervades all they do. . Jean Orloff American.

Jean Orloff, although a descendant

of the royal house of Russia, is an

American and comes by ner musical

heritage. Her early training was received in the Cincinnati College of Music under the instruction of Signor

A. Campanari. Being awarded the gold

medal of the college for violin, her parents at the solicitation of Signor

Campanari sent her to Europe, wnere she became a favorite pupil of the

great Wilhelmj in London. After a successful debut and tour of Europe,

she returned to America, and by vir

tue of her essential musical intuition

and authority has made a distinct place for herself in the musical world.

Lenora Coffin, the pianist, comes from a family long associated with the fine arts and cultural development

of the middle west. After years of study in New York, Mrs. Coffin went to Paris and for two year3 studied with Wager Swayne. After that she was admitted into the class of the great Leschitizky in Vienna, where she remained for several years. She has won a name in her frequent appearances in recital and concert. Genieve Hughel is an Indiana girl with an ancestry of Holland, "the land of the cellists" and from early childhood evidenced a decided musical tallrnt. At the age of 17 Miss Hughel attended the New England conservatory.

Mr. Meighan and Miss Joy with Lois

"Manslaughter," comes to the Murrette theatre all week commencing Sunday. Manager Holland anticipates record breaking crowds. MURRAY WAUDEVILLE r E. Barton Evans, former concert and operatic singer, a resident of this citv comes to the Murray tomorrow matinee for the first four days singing the leading role, and playing a "straight" part with the act of Burke, Clifford and Evans. The offering is a travesty entitled "The Belgian Prince," and is one of the best comedy acts in vaudeville. The act has been a standard offering upon the Keith circuit for a

number of seasons. Mr. Evans joined them last week in Chicago, and now comes back to show "home folks" his merits as a vaudevillian. The spectacular feature of the bill will be the illusion act of Kuma and Company, a troupe of oriental workers who do the uncanny and mysterious tricks of the Orient. They carry an elaborate stage setting. Completing the bill are the acts of The Musical Hunters billed as "A Polite Musical Novelty," and Allen and Lee termed "Aerialtsts With a Thrill." George Eliot's novel, "Silas Marner," will be picturized upon the screen. The following acts are underlined to open Thursday for the last half: "A Sculptor's Garden," a posing act in the bronze: Barber and Jackson in "Bits of Foolishness": Barton and

Hall, "Entertainers of Merit," and Denyle, Don and Everett, a canine offering.

PHI DELTS TO GIVE

ATTRACTION NOV. 27 What promises to be one of the greatest and most elaborate amateur dramatical events of this season is

scheduled or Nov. 27 and 28, when the Phi Delta Kappa fraternity presents its "Melody Minstrels and Fun Frolics," at the Washington theatre. The attraction will be produced by He-Fe-Be Production company,, of Ko.

komo, which has successfully staged j

many amateur theatricals. One car load of scenery and 158 costumes will form a part of the material used. Members of the Kokomo Shrine club, which staged a mammoth attraction through the efforts of the He-

Fe-Be company, have . nothing but i praise for the results. J When the local fraternity appears in j

its first part one will be introduced to 10 end men of the best variety, 20 ballad singers of recognized talent, and 30 girls selected from Richmond's: most attractive. These 60 persons, together with the interlocuor will

comprise the cast of 61.

camera and will give a mighty thrill to playgoers.

PALACE Love, hate, anger and joy all find an outlet in the gripping story "Conflict," which will bring the beautiful Priscilla Dean to the Palace theatre Sunday and Monday. Prisclla Dean fans, who have been anxously awaiting the star's latest

picture, after having enjoyed , "Reputation" so thoroughly will be more than repaid for their patient vigil. This Universal-Jewel production is supreme in its deal of time having been spent on finding desirable locations for the NorthWoods scenes. That they are true in every detail will be readily observed even by the most expert woodsman. "Conflict" presents a cast worthy of note, including, as leading man," Herbert Rawlinson, one of the best known players of Ihe screen, Edward Connelly, Hector Sarho, Martha Mattox. L. C. Shumway, Sam Allen, Capt. C. E. Anderson, Milton Brown and Bill Gillis. Stuart Paton, the well-known director of "Reputation," also directed this picture. Many of the most important sequences of the narrative were taken in British Columbia, where accurate scenes in the logging industry were obtained. The atmospheric background of the story is said to be startling in its exactness. Dynamiting a log jam was one of

the exciting incidents of the expedi

tion.

RICHMOND When Tom Mix opens at the Richmond theatre, on Sunday, in the Fox picture, "The Big Town Roundup," h-? will exhibit what is said to be an exceedingly fine "line of "rescue work The "Round-up," in which the action

switches from a ranee to 'Frisco and back again, is crowded, of course, with thrilling incidents else it would not be a Mix entertainment. Among the thrills are a number due to rescue work. For example. Mix rescues a gir! from a ruffian's insults by throwing the ruffian off a speeding train. He rescues the same girl later from i bunch of city thugs in a cafe. He rescues the heroine from a big rattlesnake on his ranch by his accurate long distance aim with a rifle. He rescues her again in the city when she falls before a stampeding steer at th-; stockyards. And he saves from death in a city park a little girl who is hanging head down "on her runaway pon. Also he is kept tolerably busy rescuing himself from his enemies. When Mix isn't rescuing somebody, hs'e fighting a gang of thugs with intermissions for attention to the Only Girl.

In "Find the Woman" Miss Rubens plays a part well suited to her outstanding talents. She is seen as Sophie Carey, a concert singer, who befriends a girl from a country town who is in New York to try to make her way on the stage. The two young women are strangely involved in i murder mystery, one of the most sensational in years. It is known that about the time the victim was killed in his office a woman was seen leaving the room by way of a fire escape. Thus it is up to the police to "Find thrWoman." The picture will be shown at the Washington beginning Thursday, Oct. 12.
