The Plaza theater today begins a new serial called "Phantomas," the story of the doings of a master crook, who always wore a mask that covered his entire head, and it was a black mask at that. These pictures were taken in France prior to the great Eu ropean war, and only recently brought to this county. There are fifteen reels of them and they will take five Sun days off the program at the Plaza. App propriate additional reels will be run by Manager Caveness to bring the pro gram to six reels.
 Tomorrow another mystery picture, but one that brings to the memory of the old time theatergoer the great spectacle of "The Black Crook" will be shown, called The Prince of Dark ness" This five reel feature has a number of sensational artistic scenes in it, in which semi-nude beauties ap- pear.

COLUMBIA

The days offering at the Columbia might easily be judged to be military play. "Behind The Lines" is its name and it deals partly with the border trouble with the Mexicans but is es- sentially the story of q crack diplO- matic spy of the Mexican government. He is a keen witted spy who plays the part of a gentleman and hobnobs with Washington society.
 He is a messenger of the comander in-chief of the Mexican army and makes the trip to Washington to ac- quaint the Mexican charge de affairs that he has been recalled as a traitor. The news kills him and prostrates his daughters, who are half Mexican and half American and who return to their native country to find the conditions such that they are forced to flee for their lives
 It is smashing gripping story with Harry Carey as the central figure and lhuse who know the action of Carey ir a picture, sure know that this offering is sure to be fast and gripping.
 The entire tale takes place along the border and while many dignitaries and high officials of the governments of both sides are mixed in the story, it is one that runs the gamut of human pas sions.
 Behind the Lines will be further augmented by the addition Of q good comedy one-reel from the coast. The Sunday program remains for Monday as well and gives way to the best five reel comedy drama of the Metro year. "The Pretenders." It introduces Emmy Whelen and q cast that made the "Quitter' well liked for its splendid fund of humor The Thursday date will probably be turned over to the Three | God Fathers" for a return as many were unable to see this picture when it was here the last time
