"DQCTOR AND WOMAN"
FOX ATTRACTION

The Doctor and the Woman is the
attraction at FoX's today and tomor-
row, together with No. 7 of THE
Eagle Eye and other short subjects.
In the three years elapsed since the
furore over * Mary Roberts Rine-
hart has become a national figure.
Probably no other authors name to-
day is more readily accepted as the
certain warrant of genuine entertain
ment on the screen than Mary Roberts
Rinehart. When that great love story
* first appeared in McClure's Mag
azine it was universally accepted as
the most absorbing romance of many
years. Instantly winning nationwide
attention and promptly issued in book
form, this thrilling drama of hospital
life, now picturized in THE Doctor
and the Woman comes to the screen
with the genius touch Of Lois Weber,
who produced THE Price Of a Good
Time where Are Ny Children ?'
and The Hand That Rocks the Ora
die Fox patrons will never forget
the lovely picture of innocent girlhood
made by Mildred Harris, the famous
heroine of The Price of a Good
Time,' When she comes on in The
Doctor and the Woman" AS little
Sydney, nurse in a great big city
hospital, only another hard working
little girl in love with the head of q
great institution, the shocking revela-
tons of a love dshonored which come
to her are made doubly affecting by
the amazing talent of this youthful
star. Every striking situation, from
the trials of little Sydney's forlorn
little home to the powerful dramatic
scenes in the great hospital, is height
ened by the supreme artistic genius of
this little girl. Mildred Harris is sup
ported by a remarkably well-balanced
cast. leila CauTs "Carlotta" is par
ticularly strong and fine, while True
Boardman as *" the great surgeon,
ruined by a nurse for reasons best
known to herself, was instantly recog-
nized as Lord Grestoke in 'Tarzan of
the Apes" But Mildred Harris as
1.-THE little girl in the big scandal in
this marvellous picture, rises to emo
tional heights rarely witnessed in so
youthful a star.

LARGE CROWDS SEE
LYCEUM FEATURES

If the quality of the Lyceum show
tc be judged by the way the crowds
came the first two days. then the
management feels sure that its pa
irons like it, for last night again
lack Of room. The management is
unable to assure patrons that they
can gain entrance this afternoon or
evening unless they come early, for u
! repetition of the turning away pro-
oess is anticipated.
With Dorothy Dalton in her latest
big dramatic success, Love Let
tcrs,' and an all-star vaudeville bill
headed BY the Kalaluhi Entertainers,
the bill assumes q place very near the
top. Miss Dalton is earning a high
place in the affections of local picture
fans through her work in this fea
ture, and is taking her place with
the really able stars. She has been
given a wonderful vehicle, with an
excellent part, and is making the best
of every opportunity.
The Kalaluhi Entertainers present
one of the best companies that ever
was inaugurated, and the other acts
on the bill give them good support
This afternoon and evening offer the
final opportunities for seeing the
show. A word to the wise is sut1i-
cient.
The management announces that
starting tomorrow, and continuing
three days, Douglas Fairbanks in
The Modern Musketeer' will be the
motion picture attraction. Everytime
Doug is PACED at the Lyceum, it
means that the s. r. O. sign goes out,
and in order that as many as possible
may have the opportunity of seeing
him, it has been arranged that on
Thursday and Friday in addition to
the regular matinee, there will he two
evening performances at Z and 9
o'clock.
Fairbanks is a nationally known
character and in THE Modern Mus
keteer' enacts the role of a. young
man who essays to prove that chival-
ry is not dead even though the
twentieth century is supposed to be
lacking in romance. He gets into
barrels of trouble however, trying to
prove that the days of old were not
the only times when ladies were
treated with respect, and lIeeDs every
reel continuous roar
On Saturday there will be the usual
continuous performance. With an
other of those vaudeville bills of the
calibre that hit only the high spots,
Thursday. Friday and Saturday loom
up as gala days at the Lvceun. Get
in line.

LAST SHOWING OF
~
KAISER" TONIGHT

After this war, I will stand for
no nonsense from America" said the
kaiser to Ambassador Gerard before
the declaration Of war by President
Wilson. And now with frothing
hate the crazed monarch promisea
America the same inhuman treatment
accorded Belgium If he is successful
in beating down the defense of the
Allies of the Western front. These
truths are so forcefully presented in
The Kaiser, the Beast of Berlin"
that the spectator cannot help but
feel a renewed determination to win
the war at all costs, if only to pro-
tect our own women and chi1drenr
from the lustful horrors of the Ger
man hordes. The picture is at
keeney's theater.
While serving as the best sort OF
American propa ganda the production
Is a dramatic story that holds the au-
dience in awe and resentment against
this maniac war-lord and again tre-
mendous storms of applause when
Americas part in the war is shown, .
During the invasion OF Belgium the
story introduces a giant blacksmith
whose phenomenal strength Is mar
vel of wonderment to the spectators.
In his effort to save his son who has
thrown a horseshoe at German Of
ficer, he is set upon by eight sturdy
Huns and energies the victor to be
Shot in the back by another Hun orr
ficer and left for dead. The little boy
Is caught by the officer and his arm
cut off "as an example to others who
might seek to resist the Kaiser"
Later however, the officer who shot
the blacksmith and manned his son,
is caught in a house by the frenzied
smithy and strangled to death, after
ward being thrown into the flames of
a burning building
And are these scenes too shocking
for the spectators? No! The au-
diences are so aroused by the terrible
excuses of the Huns that they cry for
further vengeance, 50 that when the
end comes and the Kaiser is shown a
captive in Berlin, to be turned over TO
control their joy and express fervent
King Albert of Belgium and incar-
cerated in a prison at Louvain, the
audiences find it utterly impossible to
hopes that the end will be, nothing
less than this.

Diplomatic Bill Passed.
By w. v. BYARS.

The incredible history Of the op-
erations and cost of the Know How
at Hog Island was resumed yester-
day before the Senate Committee on
Commerce. John w. Towle, civil
engineer, representing the United
States Government, at Hog Island,
was before the committee. He was
examined closely by Chairman
Fletcher, Senator Vardaman, Sena-
tor johnson and others of the COM
mittee. He answered candidly and
with sull knowledge of the facts as
taken from part Of the story OF how
the Government was held up IN lts
preparedness for war.
1t must be understood that this
is part of the most remarkable his
tory in modern times. Men with
the Know How are making this most

As this has been developed
through the Senate Committee on

for developing its significance, be-
longs, however, to Admiral Bowles
and to Senator johnson. As it con-
meets with the history Of the great

it is part of the story OF Hog
