CLARA kiMBALls YOUNG !:
At GRAND TONIGHT

If there is one thing harder to fit
to an actress than a gown, it is a
story or play. When you hear any
one say that such and such play
fitted certain star to perfection, you
can rest assured that that play was
written by a master genius. but of
all stars hard to please with film
play Clara Kimball Young ranks with
the first. That is why she has been
so long away from the screen. Her
last production was "'The Feast of
Life written expressly for her by
Frances Marion, and now she will be
seen in story written by Paul West,
called 1.-THE Dark Silence" which
Miss Young personally selected be-
cause she thought it gave her enough
opportunities to do extraordinary
work, just the kind of work she has
always been noted for.
So, then, when you see her in 1.-The
Dark Silence it will be III one of
the best film plays in which she has
yet appeared Her director, Albert
Capellani had charge Of the produc-
ton, and nothing was spared to make
it complete in every detail. It will!
be shown at the Grand theatre to-
night.

BIG CARNIVAL
To Be Run From Winnipeg to st.

NEW SPORTING ZEST
FOR THE NORTHWEST

St. Paul. Mimi, Jan "A new fea-
ture, which will add high degree Of
interest and excitement to the pro-
gram of the Outdoor Sports carnival
this year. will be the dog team race
from Winnipeg to st. Paul. This will
be known as the Red River Derby.
to be run annually and will be open
to the best dog teams of the world.
1t will be modelled after the famous
derby of Alaska, which has become
Il sporting classic, and will be follow
cd with as much interest as any thor
oughored event of the palmy days Of
horse racing.
Distance of 500 Miles.
Starting from Winnipeg, the dogs
and their sled drivers will race dis
lance Of over 500 miles through the
large cities of the Northwest and will
finish at st. Paul during the carnival
period .& Suitable prizes will be Offer
ed and the progress of the race will
be bulletined by wire all over the
world. No event of this kind has
ever been staged in this section. 1t
will add new sporting zest to the
already large field of sports which
the carnival will promote.
Is Test of Endurance.
(. MR Or more dogs comprise team
and. .thsse must be driven carefully
and their strength and endurance hus.
banded that they may be able to
have their best speed for the final
stretches of the event. The distance
OF the racing course from Winnipeg
to st. Paul, as practically determined
upon at this time, will oe over 500
miles and this means that the dogs
comprising the teams entering must
be trained perfectly for the great
endurance test.
Drivers of these races must often
exhibit as great feats of endurance
as do their faithful animals. for the
race is go-as-you-please event The
drivers of the Alaskan races have
been known to continue for days and
nights without sleep and with very
little food.

( z An innovation in the conduct of

ing bill drafted for Nebraska. WHICH
will be voted on at the present scs-
sion OF the state legislature.
Instead of a referee to direct the
bouts the bill provides for an umpire
in the ring to handle the fighters and
two judges at ringside to help the
umpire decide on decisions.
The plan is evidently adopted from
the A. A. U. rules for amateur box.
ing bouts, which provide for three
officials.
The boxing bill also prohibits guar
