TWO GREAT STARS APPEAR
IN 1.-THE BALLET GIRL

Rarely indeed, if ever, are two stars
of the eminent rank of Alice Brady
and Holbrook Bhnn seen together in
photoplay feature. In the fortheom-
ing production of "The Ballet Girl, -
a new World Film VIM A. Brady feat
ure, whichwil ] be shown at the Nixon

strong character of the screen drama
and the exigencies of the characters to
be portrayed called for a east and
featured plapers of more than ordinary
note, with the result that "The Ballet
Girl' boasts what is unauestionably
the most distinguished assemblage of
stage and screen celebrities so far seen
in the realms of filmdom. The produc-
tion is on a scale of lavishness through
out that furnishes proper environment
for the two eminent stars that head the
long list of players and the scenes in
clude glimpses of stage life, behind
and before the curtain, the lights and
shadows of Broadway and evil infiu-
ences in young girls life.
n The cast, besides Miss Brady and
Mr.. Blinn, includes Robert Frazer, Ju-
liza Stuart, Harry Danes, Laura Me-
Clure, Jessie Lewis, Alec B. Francis,
George Ralph, S. Wheatcroft, Fred
Radcliffe, Robert Kegereis.
Special interest is lent by the fasci.
mating glimpses of stage life behind
the scenes afforded by "The Ballet
Girl" The manifold temptations and
pitfalls that are set to trap young
girl making her way to a stage career
in New York are also set forth vividly
and with absolute realism.

TWO FIRES LAST NIGHT
CAUSE OF EXCITEMENT

An alarm of fire at about s O'Clock
last evening from the business center
of the town brought the hose cart and
a large crowd to the corner of Bridge
and Fourth streets. The blaze was in
woodshed in the rear of the Capital
lodging house, and had evidently
caught from an old stove which had
been used by squaws during the day
while washing. The fire was easily ex-
tinguished.
At 'clock this morning fire broke
out again in the same place, the first
blaze evidently having not been thor
oughly put out. The volunteer depart
ment responded quickly and a stream
of water was turned on in very short
time, but the woodshed was destroyed.
However, the fire was confined to this
shack and was kept from spreading to
the surrounding wooden buildings.
