PLENTY OF ACTION IN
"THE BANDIT KING"
Exciting Scenes of Middle West
in the New Thriller at
the Central

The Bandit King" a melodrama by
James Wallick, was produced last
evening at the Central theater under
the direction of T. \. Heffron. The
principal roles were taken by Her
schel Mayall as the bandit chief and
Edna Ellsmere as the Indian maid, with
Arthur Hill as the villain and Elmer
Booth as Adolphus Breezy Gush, the
laid in the middle west. the characters
being men of the frontier and plains,
and shooting irons, handouts and
knives were much in evidence in
strenuous effort to punish villainy and
reward virtue.
The two animals. an infnitesimal
donkey and a pinto, did good work, ap-
pearing in nearly every scene and per
forming a hand shaking trick which
won great applause. Edna Ellsmere
as Kolemah made striking picture
of the Indian type. Frank Bonner as
Kansas Jake made a ludicrous appear
ance, winning shouts of laughter. The
moving pictures were extraordinarily
good and the stage settings typically
western. The play is scheduled for the
rest of the week.
NATIONAL
Encore after encore greeted the eff
forts of the Fred Raymond trio at
the National theater last night IN their
selections from operate favorites. The
act heads an exceptionally good bill.
The whole is well staged, more than

success. They concluded with a dainty
song of the latter day type. Another
act which made a distinct hit was that
by Lillian Hale and company. the COM
pany being Sagar Deane, in The Phan-
tom Rival" This is an amusing play
let and, unlike most vaudeville play
let's. would have been better If longer.
Though these two are the leading fea-
lures, the remainder of the bill Is not
far behind In merit, the entire even
ing's entertainment being of high
order.
CHUTEs
The new vaudeville bill at the Chutes
proved one of the best that has ever
been presented in that house. Large
audiences at the matinee and evening
performances yesterday applauded the
program from beginning to end. The
Walter Montague company in sketch:
Williams Sisters. singers and dancers;
Nellie Revelle, witty monologist; Nc
Nish and Penfold, comedy singers;
Irving Jones in coon ditties and motion
pictures comprise the splendid bill.
Next Thursday night the amateurs will
appear. The new concessions and the
old in the amusement park are attract
ing crowds.

had left behind when he chased ambi-
tion's butterflies.
Tyrone Power was Robert and did
not miss. He has some fine comedy
moments and they were bright indeed;
he has some tragic ones, and they
were deep and true. Whether it was
pathos or fun, tears or smiles, he
Nmade his points faultlessly. 1t will
stand for a lifetime one of the most
unusual and vigorous portraits in my
memory.
KEEPS PICTURE THROUGHOUT
Edmund Ram Kennedy, brother of
the author, was the vicar and was
scarcely less persuasive. He kept in
the picture throughout. Edith Wynne
Matthison as the wears wife is another
Julia Marlowe. Arthur Lewis has
fine chance in a pure character role.
that of the bishop of Lancashire. Miss
Gwladys Wynne as the little daughter
was a charming picture of budding
womanhood She has a difficult role
because she is the personifcation of the
spirit of one of whom it was said, "a
little child shall lead them"
As the entire play is enacted in the
living room of the vicarage there is not
much call for scenery. What there is
is tasteful, appropriately Jacobean and
adequate.

oranos Anti-f.t.

Oranges are the latest cure advanced
for obesity. The diet is:
on waking the juice Of one fruit is
drunk, and this should be cold. A
second meal taken about an hour
later than the first should be COM
posed Of the juice Of two oranges and
must be slipped slowly. If one is raven
Ously hungry there is no objection to
taking at the same time one piece Of
very thin and crusty toast. No butter
Is permitted.
At intervals of two hours through
out the day juice may be slipped. One
orange at a time is usually enough,
for 1t is not to be expected that quarts
of the fruit would allay real pangs of
hunger. Another bit Of toast is per-
mIssible during the afternoon, but If
flesh reduction is the object of the
cure the toast must be crusty and dry.
At dinner one is supposed to eat a
hearty meal. No sweets or greasy
dishes should be INDUCED In.

HOUSEHOLD NOTES.

A small quantity OF vinegar boiled on
the range will counteract the odor Of
boiled cabbage or other vegetables.
Where white underslips are not used
the pillowcase should be Of linen. as
the stripes of the ticking do not show
through this as plainly as through cot
ton.
Nickel plating may be cleaned with
water and whiting or with water and
alcohol as easily as silver. Where there
is a large amount of nickel to be clean
ed gasoline will do the work well and
quickly, but Of course extra precau-
tions must be taken.
In cleaning upholstered furniture do
not beat directly upon the covering, as
this helps to wear it out and scatters
the dust in clouds. but lay towels or
thick cloths on top and then do the
beating. These cloths should be care
fully gathered up and shaken out ev-
cry little while.
If last years linen suits look yellow
they may be whitened by boiling in
lather made in the proportion Of
pound Of pure white soap to a gallon
Of milk. Rinse thoroughly in several
waters and blue slightly. A double
boiler should be used that the milk
may not scorch.

NEW TABLE KINKS.

Rock Candy For Coffee Instead Of
Sugar-Noloanoss Of Rum.
'Have you noticed that many host
esses are serving rock candy crystals
instead of sugar with after dinner cof-
feeY inquired an observing woman.
"I've tried it myself and have found
that the prettiest effect is gained by
buying an equal amount each Of red
and white rock candy and mixing the
irregular shaped crystals in low glass
bonbon dish
"These are served with a bonbon
spoon. There's an especial advantage
in this plan for those who want very
little sugar as the smallest quantity
possible may be taken, less than an or
dinary piece of cut sugar. This rock
candy is absolutely pure, very cheap
and gives a particularly delicious fla
vor to black coffee.
Another new kink noticed at a
luncheon was the passing of two little
glass dishes with the salad course
One dish held finely minced green pep
pers and the other tiny slices of little
new onions. The guests took what
they wanted and sprinkled it on the
salad, which was a combination Of let
tuce, tomatoes and cucumbers.
"At the same luncheon a fancy ONE
let with burning rum was served in
stead of the usual sweet course. In
stead of the ordinary river Of fire rum
ming placidly around the platter. the
effect was quite spectacular and re-
minded one of miniature volcanoes. 1
found that this effect was the result OF
stacking humps of sugar in heaps at IN
tervals round the platter"
