Exploits of Elaine

The ninth episode of the Exploits
 Cf Elaine will be shown at the La
 mara theater today In this picture
 the wonderful power of the Infra Red
 rays is brought out in very educa : tional manner. These rays are much
 heard of these days, but they are
 onl a recent discover. Of course they have always existed; but only re-
 gently have they been isolated to such an extent as to be either ser viceable or destructive. As is to be expected "The Clutching Hand' uses them first and in finding out what is the cause of the immediate destruc- tion resultant from their use, Ken nedy runs on to the fact that they are being used for a nefariOus pur- pose It is stated in connection with these remarkable rays that they de- stroy anything they cannot pene- trate-that is as far as life is con cerned-hence their use in killing people by "The Clutching Hand" But this killing is not done except to throw a scare into Elaine. Kennedy and JamisOn. In addition to the two reels of the Exploits there will be shown also three reel Balboa Pathe drama, "The Coveted Heritage" made at Long Beach. The acting in this is especially good The story is
 wholly American and well worth seeing

In spite of adverse condi- tions their season here has been a good one and the last week of theil engagement bids fair to be as pros porous as any to date.

 EXTRA SCORES
Hours Ahead of Phoenix Competitors, This Paper Accounts the Filling Up of Great Roose- velt Lake
Always out ahead!

Always out ahead,
 With customary energy, The Re publican reported the filling of the reservoir, in an extra edition, that went on sale last night ten minutes after the first official water had flowed over the spillway
 With this extra was published a photo, reproduced this morning that sets new records for quick action in newspaper work. The negative was made at the dam in the morning. showing waves stopping over the walls, was rushed in fast car to The Republican office. and there pre- pared for engraving by Harry Ro bertson of the Phoenix Engraving company.
 R. P Holiday, of the reportOrial staff of the paper, was the official filler of the jug that will be used in christening the battleship Arizona, and just as soon as this work was done. he rushed to the power house to report over the government phone line Not since The Republican scored big beat with the account of Theodore Roosevelts dedicatory speech at the dam in 1911 has such q story broke in such a way. By giving the people of Phoenix full accounts Of the facts, carefully prepared and frightened with feat ures of the preliminaries to the cele- bration. and by again scoring this morning with exclusive stuff the paper feels justified in growing a lit tie over the achievement Circulation Manager Ed Powell had drained the city of it's newsies by the promise of something doing" and the scene at the office as the first extras were handed out is quite understandable

Mabel Normand at the Arizona

Those who are interested in danc- ing will make no mistake in seeing the bill at the Arizona this week. "Tillie's Punctured Romance" has. without doubt, the greatest collection of stars ever gathered in the silent drama, Marie Dressler, Charles Chap lin and Mabel Normand are the leads. This program. which is sched- uled for the full week. is attracting large crowds to the Arizona, and it is safe to say there has never been such laughter heard in Phoenix theater, nor has there been picture which more thoroughly meets with the approval of all as does "Tillie's Punctured Romance"
 Charles Chaplin, funniest of all movie comedians. has the audience in his grasp from the moment of the first appearance and the combination of this peerless funmaker and Marie Dressler is one that has never been Iequalled anywhere.

AMU8EMENTS
GREAT OVERFLOW
 AT THE EMPRESS

The great overflow at Roosevelt last night had to divide honors with the Empress theater, for just about the time the first drops of water were tapping over the spillways, the overflow of mirth began at Manager Purvines amusement place. The bunch of 70. O.. D.'s" and their wives taking vacation long to be remembered. will be remembered even longer by the audience whicn saw this picture.
 "C. o. D. is a mirth provoking comedy that is not of the slap stick kind of which many grow tired: but quite another order. A chain of circumstances, peculiar and intensely interesting, supply the fun. it is too good to be missed, and they broke the mould when they made this one.
 Another picture at the Empress shows how dogs are trained and used in war and another good one com pletes the siX-reel program.
 Everything good at the Empress. "

Dorothy Gish at Lion Today

Tn Lost Lord Lovelr' pretty little Dorothy Gish has ample opportunity for bringing out quaint humor for which she is famous and this two reel picture will be thoroughly enjoyed. The scenes are laid in a family boarding house, where Dorothy is servant. A real English lord and an imposter are the other principal characters of "The Lost Lord Lovell'' and the entire pro- duction is in capable hands. A two reel Keystone special comedy is also shown today. This one is called "Ho- gan's AristOcratic Dream and Chas. Murray of Murray & Mack fame, takes the leading part. It is very laughable. Six reels are the Lion program the other two being single reelers. Mrs. Cooks Cooking" being a very funny comedy featuring Virginia Kirtley and Saint and Sinners" with Winefred Greenwood and Ed Coxen in the lead. The whole show at the Lion today is good.

M'GREER ANNOUNCES NEW MUSICAL COMEDY POLICY

Benefitting by the failure of the bill which closed last nights performance, Manager McGreer of the Ellis Musical Comedy company has decided upon an entirely new policy, so far as selection of bills for his company is concerned, and for the remainder of this aggrega- tions engagement only genuine musi- cal comedies will be produced.
 That McGreer has the best material for musical plays that has ever been seen in local tabloid stock is the gen. eral opinion and just why he has not produced only this class of bill can not be understood.
 TOnight's offering, called Three Tramps and the Sheriff., is claimed by McGreer to be the best comedy his company has so far offered. It is un like anything this company has pro- duced and calls for cast of four male comedy characters, the three tramps and 'Rube" sheriff. Frank Vack will De seen in the part created by him in
