FOX'S THEATFR.

'"rhe Stronger Vow" most power full of all of Geraldine Farrar's screen offerings, was given it's initial show ing at FoX's theater yesterday after noon and evening, when a large and appreCiative audience was captivated by the star and the story. Geraldine Farrar is one of the last of the Cor dova's, an old Spanish family, who for centuries have made war on the house of Estuiddillo. The fair Do lores Cordova is seen at an Easter fes- tival in the company of a handsome stranger. Her designing relative Pe- dro Toral, becoming intensely jealous of the smiles bestowed on the stranger orders Dolores brother, Joe, to re- move her from the festival. Joe re- fuses and the pair come to blows. That night Joe is murdered and Pc dro cleVerly hitches the blanc on the stranger. Dolores takes a blood VOW to avenge the death of her brother. Her search takes her to the French capitol, where she meets and marries the Marquis de Valera. On her wedding night, through the devil try of Pedro she learns that the man she has married is her brothers mur- derer and that she herself has vowed to kill him. On her refusal to carry out the VOW she is captured by a band of Apaches, but she fights her way to freedom in the climax of the picture when the true murderer is revealed. Fox's News and a Lloyd comedy are also features of the bill. A vaudeville program of splendid merit is also presented With a comedy sketch, Fortune Seeker, as the head liner. It is full of good laughs and some especially fine singing. The Til Ter sisters are a pair of clever en- tertainers who are bound to be big hit with their songs and snappy talk. Zarado, an eQuilibrist, has some stunts that are new and clever. Songs with harmony and a line of good gags is the offering of the Ma tional Trio.

PALACE THEATER.

Typical of the virility, the human ity and the appeal of all of the former Rex Beach screen productions is his latest. "The Crimson Gardenia," a picturization of one of his widely read works. It's delicate human touches stirring suspense, carefully wrought climax, unusual scenic beauty and excellent all-star cast could only be the work of Rex Beach, peer of American novelists.
 Following close upon the unprcce- dented success of "The Brand" and Rex Beach's many others, "The Crimson Gardenia' promises 10 set a new mark in the hall of Goldwyn fame It has every element of popu- lar appeal in addition to exquisite touches of artistry such as only Rex Beach can achieve.
 The story is of perhaps even greater appeal than the foregoing Rex Beach productions. Its locale is in quaint New Orleans at the most picturesque season of the year--the Mardi Gras. Dramatic values obtain from the opening. As the plot unfolds and the mysteries of the underworld deepen, the suspense is heightened. 'The Crimson Gardenia" is a drama that grips, thrills, holds.
 There are also three great Keith vaudeville acts on the bill featured by Tom Browns Columbia Saxophone Six, who more than please; Stewart and Neff, two tramp comedians, made a hit last night with Imaginable origin al comedy, and The Dancing Hum- phreys, with whirlwind dances and imperSonations, were favorites

might have otherwise been given by such a play. On the whole, the show was not up to the high standard of past performances
 Of the players however. it can be said, they could not have taken their parts in any better fashion. The hon. ors for the week easily go to Barrow Le Paige, who appears in the role of Quannah, the COmanchc chief and father of Wetona. Eugene Shakes pearc, the diminutive juvenile char acter actor, who in the role of a lieu tenant in the army and the unfaith- ful lover of Wctona, scored a hit. George Wellington as an Indian agent and Miss Leonard as WetOna, the principals in the performance, acted their parts well and handled several long soliloquies in capable manner
 The show is staged in one of the Sparsely settled sections of Oklahoma given over by the government reser- vation and has as it's principals a Comanche chief and princess an ln-

dian government agent a post chap lain and his son, a recent graduate of West Point, who has been given d place as instructor at the military academy in the reservation The play is given in four acts as drama ttzed by George Scarborough. But two scenes are used, one of them Wetona's room in the home of the Comancho chief, late in the after noon, and the second, John Hardin's s oftcc in the reservations government building. Tn the second scene the dropping of the curtain signifies the passing of first a week, and second d few hours
 Wetona, a trusting Indian princess, mas formed an acquaintance with Tony Wells government instructor, and he accompanies her on many horseback rides over the plains of Ok lahoma. Tony is not true to his trust and fails to live up to his promise to marry Wetona. Her father hearing of her difficulties, dismisses her from the tribe, and she goes to the home of Hardin who, because of his secret love for her, agrees to marry her and save the man she loves from the wrath of Quannah.
 The play throughout is test of her love for Tony and his love for her It is devoid of any of the thrills which have marked the past few pro- ductionS.

bSlLS DIO" ll)
 New York, Oct. 21.-With the pre- Thanksgiving social season in full swing the question of formal evening gowns and dance frocks becomes an important one.
 Never have women had a wider choice in style and line than in the instance of this years party" dresses. While street and day clothes show much divergence of style the evening gown runs the whole gamut from skirts so tight they must be slit for dancing to hoops and crinolines,
 If the number of formal costumes is limited one of the ''in between" kind Is worth thinking about. Such a one | have had sketched for today because of it's beauty, economy and usefulness.
 While this dress carries out the idea of wide hips it is not bouffant to the extent of being trying even for less slender figures.
 Made with a foundation of black satin, the skirt has a plain full over skirt of Chantilly lace accentuated at the hip line by means of cascaded side panels. The bodice is nothing more elaborate than tight-fitting folds of -he satin held in place by narrow shoulder straps of the same. The little touch that makes this dress individual is the bunch of os- trich tips caught at the right side. The original model was trimmed with tips of a brilliant Chinese blue, while a. feather fan of the same color was an, integral part of the dress.
