CASINO

The first performances of the summer
photoplay feature program at the Cas-
ino Theater were before crowded houses
at every show. Samson" Is the story
of the strongest man who ever lived.
The film representation which the Uni
versal Company has evolved from the
history of Samson and told in six parts
follows the story in the Book of Judges
with startling accuracy. This feature
picture, with ]. Warren Kerrigan as
Samson. will be shown for the remain
der of the week at both afternoon and
evening performances. An excellent
orchestra has been. engaged which rem
ders suitable music. Forty fans have

cid last night with its dancing feature,
there are a number of people in WASH
ipgton who are going there a number
OF times during the course OF The .ong
summer evenings. The dancing carnival
and exhibition was the big feature of
the opening. Lillian Taylor and Lesley
Holt proved their claim to :ha highest
vaudeville honors with their dancing.
This Is the first time these dancers
have been seen in Washington since
they started on their theatrical career
they have been kept continuously on
the Keith or the Orpheum vaudeville
circuits.
But the dancing pavilion was not the
only center of attraction. The coaster
anG cyroplane had their following and
the new merry -go-round was so popular
il was difficult to get mount The
motion pictures out in the open drew
large share of attention and the park
in general had a mid-season appear
ance. The new exit separate from the
entrance worked beautifully preventipg
crowding and possible accidents.

AT THEATERS THIS WEEK
COLUMBIA

The dignified. sedate people. who
made up the audience at the Columbia
last night, went out after the first act
Of Mrs. Temples Telegram" and
checked what little dignity they had
left SO that nothing would inter-
fere with their enjoyment of the
remaining two acts. While everyone
has appreciated the efforts of the
Columbia management and the
players to provide various forms Of
entertainment II is the laughs pro-
ducer that people most want to see.
The biggest laugh producer in the
world Is the banana peel. 1t Is abso-
lutely direct In its methods. Then comes
the mother-in-law. the mere mention Of
which suggests discomfort.
And following closely on the heels of
these two Is found the jealous wife
Mrs. Temples Telegram" is the jealous
wife in a very highly dramatized form.
The Columbia Players made a very
satisfying production Of the piece. Earl
Brown, as careless. catch-as-catch-can
sort of liar and general fxer for the
in-bsd husband. has a part which
stamps him as a light comedian Of
more than ordinary ability.
Not far away in the fight for honors
were the other members of the COM
pany. Miss Heming, as the jealous
wife, was well cast, and seemed to
realize every possibility of the part
in addition to looking as charming In a
set Of gowns as a pretty
English girl should lok. George Bar
bier John Kline. Jessie Glendennins.
Everett Butterfield, willard Robertson,
Julia Blanc, and Carrie Thatcher gave
consistent performances in the several
parts assigned to them.
Not a little was added to the enjoy
ment Of the evening by the pretty set
ting and the general staging of the
piece by Director Ritchie and Stage
Manager Chase. GARDNER MACK.

MINING MEN Of
COLORADO ARE
GETTING BUSY
Sentinel Special Service.

Sentinel Special Service.
Denver. March 1S.-Much activity
has developed among mining men all
over the state since the recent con-
vention held in this city at which
the Colorado Metal Mining associa-
tion was organized with several hun
dred charter members. In several
counties auxiliary chapters are be-
ing formed to cooperate. with the
county orga nization. Boulder is TAX
ing the lead of all other counties in
the state in this respect and within
the next few weeks will have nine
teen of these sub-organizations.
This action has been suggested by
State Mine Commissioner Henehan
and is being pretty generally follow
ed. The object is to give each dis
trict OF county an equal opportun-
ity so that when the county conven-
tion is held it will exclude any at
tempt to control the action of that
body by any special district. The
system is to. die followed out in all of
the mineral producing counties of the
state
Secretary O'Connell of the state or
ganization said today that every mail
brings request for membership
cards. Thus far 900 applications
are on file. Speaking of the new or
ganization Commissioner Henehen ex-
presses the belief that within the
coming year the membership of the
state organization will reach more
than 5000.
Much interest is being manifested
by mining ipen over the state in the
organization which indicates, that
hereafter this industry will have
closer attention to detail than it has
in the past
1t is understood that the commit
tee to draft new laws in the interest
OF the mining industry in Colorado
which are to be offered in the coming
state Legislature, is soon to meet to
commence its labors. This commit
tee was chosen at the state conven-
tion and empowered to draft such
laws as will best serve the mining
industry.
Commissioner Henehen looks for
revival Of mining all over Colo
RADIO during the present year and he
says the outlook is brighter today
than 1t has been for years.
