The Theatres
WASHINGTON.

A rare treat is in store for screen
fans. "The Miracle Man," a new
Paramount-Artcraft picture, which is
showing last times today at the Wash
ington Theatre. George M. Cohan's
Broadway success Of the same name,
based upon the famous story by Frank
L. Packard, is the basis for the fas.
cinaung theme which the picture un-
folds Besides being an absorbing en-
tertainment OF the highest order. It is
a drama with an amazing soul-beauti-
ful, thrilling and intensely appealing.
AS there can be no suspense in a
murder mystery when the climax is
divulged, the management Of the
Washington Theatre. which will pre-
sent the great melodrama. THE Thir-
Thursday. refuses to tell anything
written by Bayard WELLER, author Of
screen and directed by Leonce Perret,
by Yvonne Delva and Creighton Hale
and including. Marie Shotwell, Chris
tine Mayo, Marc McDermott, Walter
Law, Surname Colbert and George
Denebourg.
To say that THE Thirteenth Chair
is a story that attempts to find the
murderer Of man at a spiritualistic
seance, during which the man seeking
the murderer is killed in the same
manner as the first. gives you some
idea Of the possibilities of the story
for tenseness and mystification. To
add greater mystery to the situation,
there was someone present each time,
but no actual witnesses to the deed.
A young girl, who turns out to be the
supposedly lost daughter of the clair
-oyant. is one of the many who are
suspected Of the crime.
MURRETTE
George Fawcett, who has an i'm
portant role in Dorothy Gish's new
Paramount picture, Out Of Luck,
which is coming to the Murrette thea
tire on Thursday, next. will be remem'
bered by screen lovers as the musket'
'eer in the trenches in Hearts of the
World" Since that time he has ap-
peared with Miss Gish in three other
pictures and has been praised highly
by the screen public and critics alike.
MURRAY
The type craze" which in plain
English means the habit of certain
theatrical producers of enga ging act
ors because they look the part on the
street, is an irritating one to many
who take the art of acting seriously.
There are still some who do. These
actors think that the manager should
allow something for the trick OF the
makeup box. the wigmaker and
leave the business of characterization
to the acting ability of the actor
rather than to accidents of nature
which may make a giant of pigmy
and mix their hearts up in the pro
cess so that we may find the coward
ina squerading as the giant and the
Napoleon as the pigmy. There is, OF
course, much to be said from both
viewpoints.
But scarcely anyone will deny that
the art of the stage transmutes the
values of the physique and quite Otter
we have the spectacle of beautiful
woman being forgotten whilst oul
eyes follow the cleverly made-up face
of naturally homely sister. Ye

HUGE VULTURE BATTLES
FRENCH AVIATOR IN AIR
Lieut.. Pou1et, Contestant in Paris
Australia Race, Lands Safely
in Damaged Plane.

MOUI.MAIN. Burma, December IL
Lieut.. Etienne PouIet, the Frenchman
who recently yielded the Paris-Aus-
tralia air race to Capt. Ross Smith,
is safe here today, after a battle in
the air with huge vulture. which
broke propeller of his machine and
in the mountains.
Lieut.. Poulet left Bangkok, Siam,
December 6. two hours after Capt.
Smith, and direct word of his fate
had been lacking until last night,
when he landed here in his machine.
The French aviator. in relating his
experiences today. said he noticed his
feathered attacker while flying at an
altitude of 1000 feet above mountain
peaks in Siam, about 100 miles east
of Moulmain. The vulture. he said
circled for a while over the aircraft.
which was making little speed be-
cause of weather conditions. then
dived straight downward, striking and
SCATTERING the right propeller.
Discovering it would be impossible
to continue the journey, Lieut.. Poulet
searched the mountain tops for half
an hour before a suitable landing
place could be found. He made his
own repairs and continued to this city.
PARIS. December 17.-Lieut. Etienne
Poulet probably will leave Moulmain.

city, after a contest in the air with

SUGAR SOLD HERE FOR
AS HIGH As IS Cents

Some Washington retailers who are
able to obtain small supplies Of granu-
lated sugar are selling it at from 16 to
II cents a pound, this price having pre-
vailed for several days in places where
sugar may be had. A few reports of
prices as high as IS cents a pound for
ganulated sugar have been received.
Corn sugar is generally being sold at
IA cents a pound. a few dealers asking
10 cents for it. while some others ask
as much as Is cents. The substitute
does not find ready sale. most dealers
say. because of its peculiar color and
composition and because OF its low
sweetening power.
Some dealers say their patrons dislike
corn sugar because of what they call
an offensive odor emanating from it
when used in cooking.
cit takes about twice to three times
as much corn sugar as it does of granu-
lated to get the same degree Of sweet
ness" said a dealer today. "At IA cents
a pound the corn sugar is an expensive
substitute, as from % to AZ cents worth
is required to do the work Of 16 cents
worth of graduated sugar. at present
prices
wholesalers handling graduated sugar
said today that increased supplies for
Washington may be expected within
a day or so, and that considerable guam
titles will be available for retail trade
by the first Of next week, in time for
Christmas.

SHERMAN TO PUSH
AUTO DRIVER BILL
Measure to Provide for
Traffic Court Judge-Strict
Regulations.

Senator Sherman, chairman OF the
Senate District committee. said today
that ne would have a tentative bill to
punish reckless driving of automobiles in
Washington ready to submit to sub
committee of the District committee
next Monday. He said that he planned
to go ahead with the drafting of the
legislation whether the Senate would
be in recess next week or not.
He predicted also that the final draft
of the bill would contain stringent
provisions including Jail penalties for
reckless drivers of automobiles.
500 Cases Recorded.
Records of the police showing that
500 cases involving violation of the
traffic laws by automobilists have been
filed with the clerk of the Police Court
Sherman today. He expressed salts
faction that the police had taken
notice of 100 cases of such violations
yesterday.
This all shows the need Of an eff
fective law" said Senator Sherman.
THE Police Court should refuse COL
lateral and compel all offenders to ap-
pear in court. That would prove a
much more effective method of deal
ing with these cases. While man
may not mind putting up IS or $40
collateral and losing it. he does not
want to appear in court.
Would Require Extra Judge.
Senator Sherman said that his bill
will provide for the appointment of a
traffic court to be presided over by a
traffic judge. He said this would mean
the appointment of an additional
judge. But that would be better than
killing a man every week." said SEN
ator Sherman.
The bill also will provide for a
strict examination of all applicants
for automobile licenses. Senator
Sherman said:
1T is as easy to get an automobile
license in Washington as it is to get
dog license"
Aims mt "Jny Walkers"
A third provision of the bill will
prohibit pedestrians from crossing
the streets except according to regu-
lations. Senator Sherman is anxious
to prevent jay walking" He said
''the automobile driver has rights as
well as the pedestrians. which the
pedestrian must respect"
Senator Sherman said that the bill
should deprive automobile drivers of
their license after second offense.
He said. too. that Jail sentences
should be imposed upon drivers who
kill pedestrians.
