AIRDOME PLANS FOR
BIG OPENING
Citizens Band viii Open the New Air
dome Next Thursday and Fri
day Evenings.

Late this afternoon Manager Hull OF
the Airdome made arrangements with
the Citizens Band, formerly known as
the Ffftieth Regiment band, to open
the Airdome next Thursday and Fri
day evenings. The opening will be
under the auspices of the band and
Manager Hull will give twenty-five per
cent of the proceeds on the two open
ing nights to the band which that or
ganization will use to buy new uni
forms This is a liberal arrangement
on the part of Manager Hull and will
surely meet with the hearty co-opera
ton of the Keokuk citizens. The band
will march from their hall on 18th
street down Main and thence back to
the Airdome.
Remember the opening nights and
remember that the band will get
twenty-five percent of the proceeds
of those two performances,

The DeIuse Tonight.

The Deluge, to be shown at Dodges
for tonight only, is attracting great
deal of attention, as numerous tele
phone calls have been received froru
lneighboring towns asking particulars
in regard to it. No picture has ever
been shown that can equal the scenic
effects and thrilling magnificence OF
this portrayal 1t is purely biblical
drama performed 1917 years B. c. and
great pains have been taken, that the
portrayal be as near perfect as pos
sible, or, as near the description as
possible to get 1t.
Parents need have no fear that
their children will see that which will
poison their minds, for the program in
addition to this picture, has been
carefully, selected and it is duty
they owe their children to bring them
to Dodge's tonight, to see this Won
derful portrayal. The impressive
scenes in this picture are-the build
ing of the Ark by Noah, as command
ed by God; the entering into the Ark
Of the animals, two of every sort.
And the doves return to the Ark with
an olive branch in its bill Can you
stop for one moment and in your inn
agination, picture and wonder at the
greatness of this-the most wonderful
of biblical portrayals ever produced.
To accommodate the expectant over
flow crowd, three shows will be Civ
en- at 7, and o'clock
In addition to the above picture, n
Biograph comedy, entitled, Misplaced
Jealousy, will be shown.
In the beauty parlor Is an excitable
French hair dresser who is madly in
love with the pretty manicure girl. He
is wild with jealous rage at the atten-
tions shown her by one of the malc
patrons. He writes to the mans wife,
but hubby gets wise and turns the
tables on the hairdresser.
And a Selig release, In Old Califor-
MIA, When the Gringoes Came
In the days of the reconstruction
period of California, after the govern
ment OF the United States had formal.
ly taken over the vast territory ceded
by Mexico and known as Alta Califor-
MIA, its agents met with much trouble
from the contemptuous refusal of the
old Spanish Grandees to register their
original patents and old land grants
many of them issued by the King of
Spain with the new government.
BY this refusal they rendered them
selves liable to having their lands pre-
empted and claimed by men without
honorable scruples. And in many
cases this was done, although the gov
eminent did all it could to prevent
such injustice.
This story Of the land robber is
based upon such an attempt by an I'M
scrupulous American adventurer, and
is very interesting throughout

The Philadelphia Evening Times of

this morning that he had absolutely
made no promises to any club in re-

Doom Is greatly impressed with Mil

hardy for Doom to part with Miller or
