THE yAoUrs REVENGE"

This vigorous Western drama has
some stirring Photographic situations
that interest in their reVealment of
the amazing camera capacity of the
film maker. The story is of a MeXi-
can mine, a Jealous, deposed Mexican
chief, his scheming jealous sister the
rcsentful Yaqui Indians, the young
American expert, his American
sweetheart and her father, owner of
the mine Tho opposition led by the
natives, which has threatened the
Americans life several times, culmi-
mates in their attempt to loot the
train on which the mine owner and
his daughter are arriving.
This train episode is strikingly ef-
fective scenically. The train is made
ur of an engine, string of fiat cars.
and passenger coach, and when the
bandits stop it and board it the en-
gineer hides himself until the enemy
has retreated down the train to the
coach. Then he comes out of his cup
board and starts off for the next sta
tion, bearing the assaulters as well as
the attacked. The fight spreads from
the coach along the fiat cars while the
train speeds madly forward breaking
all running schedules At this rate
the mine is soon reached and the
party is saved by the American and
his assistants, lille the desperadoes
arc properly taken in hand.

THE SULTAN AND THE ROLLER
SKATES"


Sam Spaulding. an American drum
mer goes to Morocco to sell roller
skates Curiously enough he found
the demand for these articles so popu-
lar in his own country practically nil
among the desert tribesmen. While
he stands in the street brooding over
his i'll fortune, a palanquln contain
ing a beautiful woman passes. He
follows and when the palanquin stops
at the gate to the sultan's palace, he
is astonished to discover that its oc-
cupant is a girl he used to know in
Keokuk When he attempts to speak
to her a guard pushes him roughly
aside, but the girl seizes the oppor-
tunity TO thrust a note into his hands,
saying she has been kidnapped and is
being taken to the sultan's harem.
Il will save YOU" he writes back,
Pretend you arc deaf and dumb
Spauldng succeeds in making his
way into the palace. There he pre-
sents himself to the sultan and ex-
hibits a pair of roller skates. The
sultan is interested, and for his bene-
fit Spaulding gives n performance of
fancy skating Then he suggests
the sultan's women to skate. BY this
device the American girl is able to
put on pair of rollers.
The exhibition that follows so
pleases the sultan that he sends for
skates for his whole court Every
body begins trying to skate with
amusing results In the midst of he
excitement Spauldng and the girl
skate safely out Of the palace and
made their way to an American gun

DELLA FOX'S NIECE
A WASHINGTON HIT
Miss Hattye Fox Carries Audi
ence by Storm in Local
Theatre.

Miss Hattye Fox, who is a feature
ON the first bill at the washington
Theatre this week. is niece of the
great Della Fox, the famous come
dienne, who died recently. Miss Fox
appears in a singing act that affords
her ample opportunity to demonstrate
her wonderfully sweet and clear voice.
Her singing has charmed audiences
all over the country.
Miss Fox Is no stranger to Newark
ers. She has appeared here and else
where with f'rltzie Scheff, Marie Ca
hill, Richard Carrie and other celebri-
ties of the stage. Before entering the
vaudeville field Miss Fox had a prin-
opal role IN the Spring Maid" COM
pany. In addition to her good voice
she has a charming and winning per
sonaljty, and altogether she is firmly
UNFOLDING the theatrical reputation
left by her aunt, Della Fox.
In an interview last night Miss Fox
stated that she had been on the stage
ever since she was nine years odd.
That was not many vars ago, for she
does not look much out OF her teens
at present Barring disadvantages
she has every reason to hope to make
her name as prominent as that OF her
aunt She is still developing her
voice to additional perfection by talk
ing lessons during her idle hours.
Miss Fox is a slkillful dancer, but
does not specialize in this art Dane
ing is more of a fad with her
Nevertheless her grace and nimble-
ness make her a dancer of p-notch
order and her dancing Of the tango
is a work of art.
The footlights have no effect on Miss
Fox's beauty or nature. she is Just
as attractive off the stage as on.
With her rich voice of quality she is
u more than entertaining actress.
Miss Fox is considering the sugges-
ton that was made to her recently to
sing the pretty Girl" song from
wang in which Della Fox made
such Il tremendous hit.
