ISIS.

The best Fox picture seen in some

reel offering at the Isis today and

prominent critic:
GLADYS Brockwell, amply endowed
with ability to imagine and picture
those more than superficial emotions
of the human heart that appeal as
eternally true, has made the picture
like swift stream that bears us
along past the trees and rocks OF
life's background. We see these
things, but the big thing in our
experience watching the picture Is
the story's motion, its movement
One may ride down the same swirl
ing river times without number, yet
the speed of his fight is always new

Good directing is noticed negatively
and by the consciousness after it is
all over that the mind has not been
distracted from what is deeply
relevant by any consciousness of
what is awkward because untrue.

name of the new Triangle play star
ring Dorothy Dalton, which will be
exhibited at the Strand theater today

Monte NJ. Katterjohn and produced

the Yukon country as the Flame
She is the trump card of Black Jack
Hovey, proprietor of the Midas cafe,
the most popular resort in the lively

she finds herself interested in him
and aids him to make his way on

f1uence over her is for the good, and
she decides to go straight, but the
gang jeer and declare she will flame
higher and fiercer than ever after

An1usen1ents
"Freckles" Comes to
Orpheum Theater
Tuesday, Aug. %

Neil Twomey's dramatization of
Gene Stratton- Porter's famous novel
, Freckles, with all of its familiar
characters and Elusive scenes will
be presented for the first time at the
Orpheum theatre. Tuesday, Aug. %.
The trouble, time and expense
necessary in staging a dramatization
OF some popular novel must be
understood to be appreciated. 1t is
a hard task and there are few who
possess the stamina to bring the
work to a successful issue. When 1t
| became known that the wonderful
popularity of Gene Stratton- Porter's
novel Freclxies was an absolute
truth, and with the book gaining en-
tree into thousands of homes, there
were a number of New York produe-
ing managers, who Immediately
sought the dramatic rights to Mrs.
Porter's story of the Limberlost;
Authors and copyright owners OF
books, however. with such popularity
as this one are slow to relinquish
their reward. Mrs. Porter knew the
motto of the Broadway Amusement
Co. Arm; Producers Of Clean Plays,
and they got the lights.
The question arose who was to
dramatic Freckles, a book play
must stick to the text of the story
in both word and deed, and this re-
quires more than a playwright; It
requires a knowledge of stage
intricacies and craftsmanship; Nell
Twomey was given the assignment,
and went to work diligently; that he
succeeded, even above the hopes or
the producers, Is attested by four
first-class companies playing on tour
this season.
The success OF Freckles lies in It's
implicitly. There are no characters
in modern fiction nor on the stage
endowed with such simply nobility
sweetness and wonderful delineation
as has been given Freckles and the
Swamp Angel. Mrs. Porter knows
nature, she has lived all her life in
the great Limberlost region OF
Indiana, studying It and writing
about IT, She has achieved posi-
ton which can be disputed by none;
her fiction and her plays are In

In connection with further adj
vances of money to Russia, consid-
Grafton Is being also given TO the
case Of hard pressed .Rumania, whose
troops are fighting with the Russians
TO stop the Teutontc drive in the
southeast. 1t Is understood that any
loan that may be arranged for Rum
ania will be handled through Russia.
German intrigues in Russia are
known to be exerting powerful in
fiuence to bring about anarchy with
in the new democracy Just how
they are playing their game in refer
ence to the opposing elements has
not been revealed.
The organization of Russian con-
described as formidable
whose criticism of the provisional
governments course is to the effect
that socialist domination has de-
stroyed discipline and efficiency in
the army and left the country ex-
posed to invasion, apparently has
not been definitely measured in
strength in dispatches received here.
1t combines. however, the dismissed
generals OF the army, the bourgeoise.
or constitutional democrats, discon-
tented Moscow business men and
other elements, all OF whom demand
a radical change in governmental
policy.
Opposing the principles of this
combination are the cabinet and the
socialists. Apparently holding the
of both factions is Premier
Kerensky. The conservatives criti-
CHE him for submission to socialis-
tic control.

acterfzation which ieves no confu-
sion in the minds Of the audience.
In her production The School For
Husbands. Miss Ward showed her
versatility as a Coincidence and still
more recently in Unconquered, and
Her Strange Wedding, proved that
she is still the wonderful dramatic
artistic that astonished the public in
the LasIgy production OF The Cheat
The Crystal Gazer has to do with
Rose and Norma Jorgensen. Their
mother, living in a poverty stricken
tenement, commits suicide and Rose
Is adopted by Judge and Mrs. Keith,
while Norma is taken over by Mrs.
Dugan, a woman of the tenements.
From then on they are known under
their adopted names. Rose becomes
social favorite, but Norma falls
into the clutches of Calistro, char
latan hypnotist. Under his guidance
she becomes an hypnotic subject and
Calistro is taken up by fashionable
society. At a social entertainment
Calistro notices the resemblance be-
tween Rose and Norma. The girls DO
not know each other and Calistro
secures information to prove that
they are both the daughters of a
condemned murderer. With this he
confronts Rose and she, realizing
her position, breaks her engagement
with Dick Alden, young million
aire, and fees to Bermuda. Dick, on
account Of the resemblance, is filled
with pity for Norma, and begins 70
make love to her. How Rose returns
and affairs are finally Strengthened
out, is brought about in a most un-
usual and gripping manner. The cast
supporting Miss Ward is one of I'M
usual excellence and includes Jack
Dean, Harrison Ford, Winifred
Greenwood, Raymond Hatton, Edythe
Chapman and Jane Wolff.

Discussed at Confer

Washington, Aug. 24.-Russia's
critical internal situation, aggravated
by the new German drive against

ing watched by officials here with
grave concern. 1t became known
yesterday that official advices are
closely in accord with press dis
patches describing grave political
Conditions. ~.
The outcome OF the forthcoming
Extraordinary national council to be
Reld at Moscow. Is awaited here with
Interest scarcely less keen than in
Russia itself. The immediate fate of
Russia, 1t is felt. depends upon 1t.
& Out of the great gathering, in which
the conservative elements of all sorts
are expected to unite in an effort to
compel the provisional government

one OF two results is expected:
The formation OF a strong CEN
tralized government capable of rap

Stunning the offensive against the
central powers, or open civil strife.

It appears that little can be done
by outside influence, even that OF the
American government, to help i'm
nlediately in the crisis. The problem
was discussed yesterday at a con-
ference by Secretaries Lansing, Nc
Adoo and Baker. 1t Is understood
that attention was given chiefly to
the financial and Industrial aid which
the United States can and will give
and the assurance of which is count
ed upon to strengthen the hand of
the Russian provisional authorities.

tually the entire day at the treasury
talking over with officials the finan-

READE PLEASED OVER
VICTORY FOR OFFICE
Says Support Supreme Court Has
Given Him ls Effective Weapon
IN Carrying Out Work Of Office.

Bismarck. N. D., Aug. 24.-Return-
ing from a tour of the northern part
of the state during which he con-
demned twelve firetraps in one small
town, State Fire Marshal III. L.
Reade was pleased yesterday to learn
for the first time Of the victory of
his ONCE in the action brought by l.
Glerum of Devils Lake for an injunc-
ton restraining the fire marshal from
enforcing an order for the destruc-
ton of building recently extensive
~ damaged by fire.
Mr.. Reade regards the support
which the supreme court has given
his office as a most effective weapon
in procuring more complete COM
pliance with the orders which he
finds 1t necessary to issue. In the
town where twelve buildings were
condemned by the fire marshal last
week, every one of them was a real
menace, and their being cleared out
will reduce the fire hazard, reduce
insurance rates on adjoining property
and prove generally beneficial, but
naturally there was opposition, and
had not the supreme court passed
favorably upon the unlimited powers
of the fire marshal in this connection,
the fight would have been an uphill
one.
