HELEN HOLMES IN
 COLUMBIA OFFERING

Another picture with the splendid Whispering Smith" cast is the dish at the Columbia today and tonight and tomorrow. It is styled Judith of the Cumberlands," and Helen Holmes is said to have splendid part in the girl who learns to love the lawyer who is trying to make the back woods people see the error of disobeying the laws The story is laid in the mountains and the beautiful Bear valley scenery Is as big value as the play itself, and that IS saying plenty, if all that the critics say of it is true. Miss Holmes as the mountain girl is particularly at home, and with DuSang Sinclaire and the rest of the Whispering Smith" bunch she has a fine chance to score another triumph in this classic of the hills. With the Judith of the Cum berlands' picture will be shown a New Mutt and Jeff" comedy, The Spend thrifts." Mutt says, while the barber is shaving him, the bootblack cleaning his shoes and the manicurist polishing his nails, If there is anyone else you can put to work on me, trot them out: l am made of money" It is a scream A Pathe weekly. with Count Bernstorff meeting his wife on her arrival from Germany, the trial of a searchlight made for Uncle Sam with over a bill lion candlepower light, Bulgaria goes to- war and the king greets his troops Our own militia boys are hardened to war duty and like a twenty mile hike Fashions of the latest are shown in colors by the Pathe system.

It is very evident that the big in- terests behind the Marine stocks took advantage of yesterdays market 10 unload.

The coppers are making new highs and the condi- tion of the trade warrants it. The metal is held at higher prices with q big demand. steel prices too are near the top and it looks as though after a resting spell United States Steel might become the leader again.

HOLMES

Today and tomorrow the Lion the ater will present Mir. William Gillette in a screen version in seven acts of his famous stage success, Sherlock Holmes" This is Mir Gillette's first appearance in pictures and marks an epoch in the industry, as MT. Gillette is one of the few really great actors of the present day.
 In the physical appearance of Will liam Gillette-tall, almost gaunt-lies much of his success with the character of Sherlock Holmes. Of course, cou- pied with this he stands as a type of genius without equal on the Amerian stage today. Mir. Gillette photographs unusually well and his seven-act Sherlock Holmes" keeps the film yer sion true to the figure of action ere ated by A. Conan Doyle. His Sher- lock Holmes is the calm and dignified. though eccentric figure that Doyle painted in his books. The film already is assured of the popularity which met Mir. Gillettes interpretation on the stage.
 A big man himself. William Gillette has surrounded himself with big men for Sherlock Holiness Edward Field ing, his Dr. Watson who played the part on the stage. Is but an inch less than MT. Gillette's six feet four inches of height. Mario Majeroni. who takes another leading part. is also we'll over six feet. as are nearly all the other members of his company Chief among the Essanay players who aided was Ernest Maupain, also big man. All men selected from the Essanay stock company by MT. Gillette were above six feet in height.
 Sherlock Holmes will be seen at the Lion today and tomorrow and is an attraction well out of the ordinary.

way in Nevada will soon become fact.
 The nightmare spot of the whole state is the Fallen Sink, particularly the twelve section between Sand Springs and Salt We'll Sink is a very appropriate name for this stretch of road, divided into the eight mile flat and the four-mile flat, is at least a foot deep with sand in the middle of summer, and the rest of the year 1t Is a quagmire where car often sinks up to the hubs. Besides this there is a great deal of heavy travel from nearby mines which keeps the road cut up all the time. It is nothing unusual for an auto or truck to become so mired that 1t takes 30 mules to pull the car out.
 The Lincoln Highway Association, through their state counsel. MT. Joseph E. Kane, is doing excellent work in arousing interest in the improvement of this Nevada portion of the highway, and the association stands ready to contribute a large sum of money to the rebuilding of the section, providing the state of Nevada and others interested will cooperate. We hope that this sec ton of road that the Savage Tire com pany is rebuilding will make it so evil dent that it is perfectly feasible to put the entire road in good condition that within a short time motorists will no longer be forced to make big detour or use next to impossible roads.

NEW FOT0PLAYER
 AT PLAZA THEATER

An opportunity for the lovers of fine musical instruments to hear what is conceded to be the best instrument of its kind that has ever been brought to Phoenix Is now given Phoenicians at the Plaza theater daily. where the new s7,500 fotoplayer has recently been in stalled and where it is now being played daily for both the daylight and night performances, showing all and every conceivable sort of harmony combination that has ever been brought from a single instrument and many of those that have heretofore been left entirely to orchestral com binations to produce
 The machine is both mechanical and manual. By that is meant that it can be played both by hand and electricity, and by both. All the effects are cleo trically controlled and give instant re- sponse to the manipulations of the pre- siding genius of the instrument When being played by hand. the electrical effects are in constant use, and when being mechanically played the cleo ,trical effects are automatically used when their effectiveness is most de- sired.
 The installation of this wonderful musical instrument has been going on for the last week and has just been completed having been given it's first going over yesterday. All day long crowds much larger than ordinary en- joyed the music and the pictures at this popular house opposite the city hall. This is the first complete sur prise that Manager Caveness prepared for his patrons while out on the coast recently, and it's installment marks a step in the rapid progress of the Plaza theater. The Plaza is becom- ing rapidly recognized as the one house in the city where the programs are always consistently good. Today g program embodies the sixteenth in- stallment of The Iron Claw" and a splendid Mutual program headed by The Girl from Chicago" a Mutual multiple reel feature of more than or dinary merit. Those who desire good program should not miss this one. and then there is the music that adds so much to the attractiveness of the pro- gram.

SAVAGE PEOPLE ON
 GOOD ROADS MOVE

Yes, you might say that the Savage Tire company has gone into the road building business" said MT. Claus Spreckels, secretary of the company. We certainly mean to back the good roads movement to the limit.
 Up at the Fallen Sink, near Fallon Nevada, we are sinking well and building sample section of road to show that it is possible to make this notoriously bad stretch of the Lincoln Highway one of the best pieces of road in the state. The well will be known as the Savage Tire well. and will furnish a permanent water supply free to all motorists. in addition to supplying water for mixing the material from which the roadbed will be made.
 "Of the 425 miles of Lincoln High way in Nevada. the roadway between Ely and Reno has become so notorious that tourists avoid it whenever possi ble. We are trying to permanently inn prove the worst spot in the west, and We hope to get all those who will nat uraliy benefit by a better highway in terested to such a point that the im- proyement of the entire Lincoln High
