MISÖ LILLIAN COLLIER.
BY ROY GIBBONS. CHICAGO, 111., April 8. Fairy tales and Bohemianism are battling here for supremacy. Upon the outcome depends whether or not Chicago is to have a Quartier Latin of its patterned after Gtham's Greenwich Village. Miss Lillian Collier and Miss Virginia Harrison have been sentenced by Judge Jacobs to read the fairy tales atentively. The jurat's reason In doing so was because he hoped thereby to cure the two young women of their Bohemian ter.dencie-3 Iiiy "Petting Parties." Lillian and Virginia are joint proprietors of the "Wind Blew Inn." Chicago's first attempt to express its Bohemian ideals. Police visited the place several times and complained btcause they saw candles burning dimly m far distant corners and grotesrque black cats stalking about the barren floors. In addition they also alleged numerous "petting parties" Wre carried on. All of which the girls denied. West." in which the beautiful and talented Louise Lorraine playa opposite the star. It is said thit "Headin West" breaks all speed records for a western, and that Hoot never appeared to better advantage. A Sunshine comedy and the latest Issue of Fox Newa are also shown. Jean Paige, who has net been seen in a feature production since her memorable appearance as Jessie Gordon in Vitagraph's picturlzation of Anna Sewell's "Black Beauty." 13 the star of the big, special production. "The Prodigal Judge," which opens a three day engagement on Wednesday. The picture 13 based on the story by Vaughan Köster which was the most talked of novel of the year some yeArs ago, and has since maintained its place a one of the best all American novels. "The Prodigal Judge" le a story of the ante-bellum days with the locale mostly in Tennessee. While the novel takes Its name from the Judge, a lovable hero eloquent at every bar and Falstathan in capacity of appetite and intellect, the interest centers around the loves and fortunes of the pretty heroine, Betty Malroy, and it Is this character that Miss? Paige portrays. She. is adrrJrably fitted Into this story of the late '30's and early '40's, with the quaint and dainty .costuming of that period. "The Prodigal Judre." Is a romance rich in incident, hearty In humor, full-f.owing in a broad current of life and events. Love and hate and private feud, true friendship and evil ambition, all have their j"Lace In this splendid American story. LASALLE Mae Ttnee. famed movie critl-c of The Chicago Tribune, last Fridaypaid her mead of praise to the story, acting, and entertainment value cf "Love's Mi?qumdr." the Just-released photodrama which stars Conway Tearle at the head of a cast which Includes Winifred Westover, now Mrs. William i. Hart. Florence Billings. Arthur Housman, and Robert Ellis. Miss Tinee's review widely read here, adds particular interest to the films release to-day at the LaSalle. The story concerns a man. who through friendship for another, gets into a mess In which the married one is hot and the man is accused by the wife, frustrated In her designs to elcpe with him. of nvarder. An escape to the feashore, another girl, an Imminent veddir.g, discovery, prison, and an snazing clearinc up of the plot furnish a complete cucv.esslon of thrills.

ThL is a comedy drama of a stenographer who rose to be a celebrity by merely posing as a famous actress whom she resembled. Everything goes well until the real actress appears on the pcene just before her Lmltator Is due to go on as 'heroin In a horc-e talent, charity Ehovf.
