Elks' Theater. Thursday and Frida. Charm" a Vitagraph special, with Maurice Costello, Clara Kimball Young and the two little Costello children, Helen and Dolores. will be the picture feature and Tuesday will
 bring The CIod," a two reel Lubin by Fielding. This picture was made along the Mexican border and is or unusual interest just at this time
 At The Lion they have installed
 new service which is giving them ! better pictures than have ever been shown at this most attractive little i house. When you consider the class
 of pictures which The Lion has aI- ways shown that is saying a great i deal. On Sunday the feature pie i ture will be Success a two reel l eRliance by Forrest Halsey. This is undoubtedly MT. HaIsey's greatest i work. It tells the story of strug- sling author and an impoverished artist The author attempts suicide and the artist saves him. From that moment his success begins. The devil, in the gufse of representative of a publishing house, accepts his novel for publication. It is a huge success. l l. is dramatized and that adds to his fortunes. On the 200th performance 1 of his play he gives a banquet to the successes of the city. As he rises to toast Success" the little artist ap- pears to him and he drinks to the Failures and falls dead across the table. This is really a remarkable
 film and well worth a trip to see it On Monday A Message to Head ,
 quarters" a three reel Tannhauser, 1 will be featured, and The New i Baby" a Keystone comedy, will be | another extra attraction. The excel i lent orchestra continues to be a feat
 Cre here and during fair week there l will be special music, with Harry Ransome singing illustrated songs
 The big carnival which will run | all fair week brings some entirely new features to Phoenix. There will be a sensational loop -the-Ioop, a motordome with hair raising auto races. A trip to Mars. the Ferris wheel and dozen other attractions will make the whole thing one to be remembered. The mana agement re- 1 quests us to state that the grounds will be policed in the most thorough l manner and the big crowds that arc expected will be amply protected also that there is room for every body and more.
 At The Coliseum too they will run . special bill during fair week. The vaudeville will consist of three acts with Evans and Gilbert in singing and dancing as the headliners. The feature films will be When the West Was Young" Pathe Weekly No. 49; The Burglar and the Baby" and "The One Best Bet" all in all one of the strongest bills ever offered at this theater.
 There will shortly appear here number of special feature pictures under the names of The Famous Player Films There will be pie ture plays enacted by some of the most famous stars of the legitimate stage. One of the first of these will be James K. Hackett in The Pris oner of Zenda," Anthony Hopes fam ous play. This and the others which are to follow it, were produced under the personal direction of Daniel Froh man. It will be remembered that MT. Hackett made one of the greatest successes of his career in The Pris- oner of Zenda.' and this film repro duction of the play was almost a sen sation in New York last winter. Among other plays will be James ; O'Neil in Monte ChristO,' Sarah Bernhardt in Camille" and maTA others. It is also quite likely that of Kinemacolor productions will be seen here during the winter. These pictures in color, especially the views of the coronation of King { George and the great Durbar at Delhi are most wonderful.
 
 William Duncan, director of the ! Selig players now located in Pres cott is not only one of the ablest but one of the most versatile men in the moving picture ranks. He was well known as an actor before he l went into the movies as a producer ; and leading man. His interpretation 1 of ",Fhe Parish Priest is famous { the country. This is the I ole that made Daniel Sully famous and to have followed him in it and not only made good but to in many ways surpass MT. Sully is something 1 of feat for any man.
 Most of the Selig Prescotts are l written as well as staged by MT. { Duncan and that wonderful picture, { The Law and the Outlaw" is prob ( ably the finest western picture ever made. MT. Duncan can think up more thrillers to the square inch than 1 most of us dream of in a lifetime and any man that works under him must l deliver the goods. It Is not only as a writer of scenarios, however. that MT. Duncan is a shining light. He l has written a number of one-act plays and some longer dramas that have been immensely successful. His l
