"The Crisis" Tonight.


For the last time THE Crisis" will
be shown at the Grand tonight. II
you were not one Of the big audi
ence that applauded this masterpiece
yesterday, if you haven't happened to
meet a friend today who was In that
audience, then take our word. Come
tonight, bring the family or your
friends.
"The Crisis" is a big photodrama
adapted from Winston Churchilfs
story. 1t is story of war times, but
is not filled with battle scenes.
Abraham Lincoln, portrayed oy
Drane, appears in the story, but the
theme Is principally of romance.
1.-THE Crisis" pictures conditions
before and during the civil war as
they existed in and near st. Louis.
This is of interest to Keokuk people,
as the history Of st. Louis was also
Keokuk's history in those times of
strife. Here will be shown the slave
market In old ST. Louis; the Lin
coin and Douglas debate at Freeport,
ILL.,. the torchlight campaign Of the
early sixties; the bombardment of
Fort Sumter, and the battle Of Vicks-
burg.
Churchill's book was historically
correct and the photoplay follows
that lead, and the scenes were en-
acted on historical spots.-Advertise-
ment.
