At THE IMPERIAL
WILLIAM FARNIM IN THE SIGN
OF THE CROSS" FRIDAY
EVENING, SEPT. y.

William Farnum and a mammoth
supporting east, appear on the screen
at the Imperial Friday night. in a
%stupendous film version of the ia
nous dramatic triumph, The Sign
Of the Cross" by Wilson Barrett.
The play is, foremost, a work OF
the imagination, yet strengthened
and emphasized by the grim realities
that inspired il. The play brings out
the gorgeous pageantry of Paganism
into sharp and clear relief against
the towering dignity and primitive
simplicity of the early Christian faith
and even discloses the riot and Ii
cense OF self indulsent Rome, as II
were. at the very foot of the ascent
to Calvary.
From it's first inception, this dar-
ing was justified by an extraordinary
success. Before the play had been a
week upon the stage, it had created
a furore in America. From count
less pens poured a stream of eulogy.
Eager crowds besieged the theater
doors. And throughout many years,
this amazing popularity has contin-
ued and increased, until today the
drama has won a place in the litera-
ture of the stage unsurpassed by any
other play Of the past half century.
The motion picture version is nat
urally more elaborate and detailed
than the original stage presentation
of the play, and the great Roman gar
dens, baths, palaces and forums, with
their incidental wealth of costume
and settings, enrich the production
and make il a faithful copy of the
! times and environments ii typifies.
William Farnum is superb
throughout his entire characterize
ton Of Marcus Superbus, Project OF
Rome. Physically rugged and mas
terful. he delineates to a remarkably
accurate degree the savage force and
power of the Roman patrician. and
when he is won over to the teachings
and creed Of Mercia, the Christian
maid. this vigorous strength Is all
the more impressive because of the
gentleness and tenderness that dom
mate It. Rosina Henley. as Merciar
Is consistently sweet and effective.
A large east of principals and supers

TO truly reflect the congestion and
activity of the period.

Occasional attacks of backache, ir-

pass off for a time, but generally re-
turn with greater intensity. Don't
delay a minute. Begin taking Doan's
Kidney Pills. and keep up their use
until the desired results are obtain

CORN IN FINE CONDITION


Pierre, Sept. All reports the
past week have been the most en-
couraging as to corn conditions. The
crop is maturing rapidly. and many
fields are now practically out of dan

and is rapidly hardening up and the
warm, dry weather of the past Ten
DAYS has been a great help to this
end, and the corn raisers are hoping
for a continuation of the present con-

to carry the corn crop through. The

KILLED BY TRAIN
TRAGIC DEATH OF A LONG TIME
RESIDENT OF LENNON.

Lennox, Sept. An interesting
human interest story surrounds the
tragic death at Fort Dodge, la, d
few days ago of Henry o. Skie, a
prominent South Dakotan. who was
struck and killed by a train. He had
gone TO Fort Dodge for the purpose
of purchasing a particular kind OF
brick for use in erecting a barn and
a silo.
When he departed from his home
near Lennox his wife accompanied
him as far as Canton n saw him
safely on an eastbound train there.
A moment before they parted he ad-
monished his wife to be careful when
about their horses and avoid acct
dents, while she, equally solicitous
for his welfare, cautioned him to also
be very careful SO he would not meet
with any accident on his journey,
which was expected to extend over
several days.
The wife then departed for her
home and the husband went east
ward. The Mex heard of him was
the receipt of a telegram stating that
he had been killed by a train. At
first it was believed by his Lennox
friends that there was a mistake, but
the correctness of the telegram
speedily was verified. The tragic
news was transmitted to Mrs. Skie
by telephone.
The unfortunate mans last act of
appreciation for his family was the
purchase at Fort Dodge OF a fine set
of silverware, which was sent to his
wife by express. She received the
silverware a few minutes after infor-
nation had been telephoned her of
the tragic death of her husband.
In addition to the widow there are
three small children. Mr.. Skie had
resided in Lennox and vicinity for
many years, and was generally re-
spected and popular among his
