Evelyn Ne~bit at Columbia

The much talked-of picture. Re demption," with Evelyn Nesbit and her son, Russell Thaw the leading characters in the cast, has reached Phoenix and will be shown at the Co., lumbia theater today and tomorrow. This screen drama has received wide notice wherever it has been shown and undoubtedly will draw large attend ance in this city. "Redemption" IS sad to be the story of events from the life of Evelyn Nesbit, yet it is stated that no attempt has been made to cap italize the notoriety of that famous case.
 Evelyn Nesbit, whose life history has
 been barred to all the world, has proven
 to be a most versatile screen actress as
 she has a vaudeville star. Handicapped
 at first because of her great notorlety'
 she compelled critics to acknowledge that her stage and screen success was won by real ability. Redemption IS
 a play of absorbing interest and Is adequately presented. The supporting cast is an able one.
