ises to be one Of the most interesting
athletic events seen in Boise. Pro-
moter Nick Collins, who has the card
in charge, states the seat sale is en-
couraging and the prospects look ex-
cellent for a large audience. Women
especially are invited. The referee
will be picked from the audience, so
that an announcement of who he will
be cannot be made at this time.
The two preliminaries are to be lin
tied to 10 minutes each and will go
to but one fall. This is done so as not
to delay the main event which goes to
the best two out of three falls. Ray
Brewster, boy well-known in junior
athletic circles, will appear in the first
preliminary with Fiskell OF Nampa,
who comes to Boise with an excellent
reputation. Brewster has been wrest-
ling at the Y. NJ. c. A. and looks very
good. The second preliminary will be
between Nick Collins and Hank Nc
Nee. the Nyssa grapples, who has been
camping on Collins trail for a return
match, Nick having wrestled and won
from the wehfooter some months ago.
McNee offered to hang up little side
money that he could throw Collins
within a limit of 20 minutes. Collins
said afterwards that he thought Is
minutes would be about all the wrest-
ling the Nyssa champion would want.
McCarroll will have the advantage
OF Yokel in weight, height and reach,
but the Salt Lake grappler has a
longer ring career and more expert
ence which will offset the advantages
of his opponent. Both are in excel
lent condition and a hard, fast mat
struggle can be expected from them.
A special attraction OF the evening
will be bagpipe playing by Bob Nc
Cloud, which will be given especially
for the occasion. other special music

VAUDEVILLE AND FINE
PICTURE PROGRAM
AT MAJESTIC
"The Warning" Featuring
Henry Kolker, Is the
Film Offering.

For the last two days in the week the
Majestic theater presents a five-reel
feature picture, THE Warning" to-
gether with a one-reel comedy in
which Kathryn Osterman appears and
two acts of vaudeville. The vaude-
vile numbers are La Vine & La Vine,
comedy novelty artists. and Marcus &
Whittle. who come billed, some sing
ing, some talking. some nonsense"
In writing OF The Warning" after
having reviewed the picture, w. S.
Bush says. There Is much supreme
film art in this production. The local
color is so true and so we'll chosen that
it amounts to one OF the real points of
merit. There is much allegory which
comes as an occasional interlude In the
progress of the play and is splendid.
The play Is bound to make innumerable
friends for the motion picture in cir
cles where ignorance and prejudice pre-
vail. High as this merit is I do not
consider 1t the chief merit of the play.
The chief merit Is in it's extraordi-
nary value as an entertainment. The
dramatic and artistic appeal of the play
is Irresistible everywhere. Too much
praise cannot be given the actors and
actresses. Henry Kolker gave a SUI
perb impersonation of the man who
stood on the brink of the abyss. The
part OF the wife was taken in splendid
fashion by Lille Leslie. Master Frank
Longacre made a charming and real
boy. The other parts were all In cap
able hands. but none was better than
the Camille Of Mayme Kelso."
The Majestic theater will give bar
gain matinees OF both vaudeville and
pictures today and tomorrow.--Adv.
