GREAT PICTURE THAT TEACHES A LESSON AT THE PALACE.

Before the great war Paris was the art center of the entire world. The Bohemian art colony there was one of the most famous localities in the world and there romance reigned supreme romance of this art col ony before the war is charmingly told in The Awakening" the new World-Picture Brady-Made which will be shown at the Palace Theatre for the last time tonight, with Montagu Love and Dorothy Kelly as the stars and with a brilliant supporting com pany. The story is thoroughly un- usual one. It tells of the way that a man who was real artist-an artist imbued with the divine fire but suf- fering from the most disagreeable disposition and the most uncouth and unkepmt appearance imaginable, awoke and became real man when his soul was touched by love for a woman. And 1t tells of the dioboical plot which another member of the colony put into effect against this idol of the artists heart, of the events which followed and the way that the lovers were. finally reunited. 'The Awakening" isa pleasing story You'll like 1t. See it.

LOVE AND BUSINESS SUCCESS COMBINED IN "KIDDER 6 CO.v

Rarely has a photoplay more skill fully combined the necessary inter ests of romance, youth and business than in the new Pathe play, "Kidder & Co.," in which Bryant Washburn, always favorite in this city, will appear at the Palace Theatre on Sunday matinee and Sunday night.
 Washburn has been a screen fav- lorite for quite a lohg time, but he didn't become really famous till he essayed the role of Skinner" the Saturday Evening Post hero who has become screen classic. He is the young man who become rich and famous by the mere accident of the purchase of dress suit. Maybe you remember the rare human qual- ity, the delicate touch, the delightful

"AUCTION BLOCK" WILL OPEN SUNDAY AT
 ORPHEUM THEATRE,

The novel upon which "The Auc- tion Block" to open at the Orpheum Sunday, is based created a decided sensation when published, ranking as one of the best sci'ars of the day. There is every re- Hn to believe that it will duplicate in the films the success scored in the literary field. The original plot is followed closely and despite it's scheming complica- tions, necessary for the development of the machinations of the black mailers and murder of Jarvis Ham mon, the continuity is so well pre- served that there is no difficulty in tracing the story's thread. Less skill fully directed, quite the contrary might have been the case, but MT. Trimble's clever handling of his sub ject could not be improved upon.
 Few screen melodramas can stand the test of being stretched beyopd the five reel limit, but "The Auction Block" stands forth as one of the brilliant exceptions. There is never an instant when the action drags in the slightest. The first big thrill comes with the mill explosion which results in the killing of Lily Levin sky's father, the girl who after wards, under the name of Lilas Lynn, revenges herself by staying Hammon. This occurs in the first stage of the play, and thenceforth one sensation follows fast upon the heels of the former, the pace growing faster all the time until a fine climax is reached, which shades off prettily into the scene showing the domsetic happiness of the Whartons.
 Rubye De Remer's beauty and charm endow the character of the heroine with effective appeal, and Florence Deshon, as Lilas Lynn, adds new lustre to her laurels as an ac- tress of great emotional ability. Tom Powers is a thoroughly satisfactory hero, first as the dissipated, and later the reformed Bob Wharton, and and Walter Hitchcock gives a con vincing and dignified performance in the role of Hammon, the Steey King. The cast is in every way worthy Of the "all star" designation, and every member is entitled to credit for the pictuR's success
 From start to finish the lightning effects and photography are superb. The millionaire dinner scene, the stage revue and luxurious interiors furnish examples of artistic sets and splendid camera work which will not be easily forgotten by the spectators. There can be no doubt as to the re- ception the public will accord this production, which promises crowded houses to every exhibitor who books it.

naturalness of the Skinner stories
 Then came "Pwenty-one" by George Randolph Chester with Washburn in a dual role, and here he is back again in an absorbing story of what happens to young man whose father didn't think he was going to amount to much. We'll, the way in which he beats his pessimistic dad at his own fame and wins the dear est little girl in the world all at one fell swoop as one might say, provides an entertainment brimful of interest for everybody.

WAGWG LEGAL FIGHT
TO SA We ANARCHISTS
FROM DEPORTA WON
Alexander Berkn,an and Emma
Goldman Held on Ellis
Island .lirdifing Decision
tBv Associated rress.l

NEW YORK. Dec. 5.-Alexander
Berkman and Emma Goldman, Amer
ica'S two most notorious anarchists
spent tonight at Ellis Island. They were
tiles at noon upon demand OF the De-
partment of Labor TO await deportation
TO Russia. after preaching their doc
trines in the United States for thirty
years.
While they were on the way to the
island. their counsel. Harry Weinberg
er, was appearing before Federal Judge
Mayer with a petition for writs of ha-
beas corpus in last effort to nullify
the deportation decree. The writs were
granted and are returnable Monday.
Weinberger said he would insist that
his clients be produced in court before
Judge Mayer, who sentenced them TO
two-year terms for obstructing the
draft law.
There was no way of determining
tonight whether the legal proceedings
would delay the departure of Bcrkman
and Miss Goldman for Russia.
The habeas corpus petition was
based upon the contention that Miss
marriage. that the constitutional right
of free speech has brought within the
pale OF the law any radical utteranceS
they may have made and that depor-
tation to Soviet Russia would be il
legal because the United States has
not recognized the Bolshcvists.
Meanwhile Berkman and Miss Gold
man will he held at Ellis Island with
eiEhtytwo other radicals awaiting de-
portation.
Miss Goldmnn's farewell" mcssage
to her followers was:
Love and comradcshiD TO all liberal
and revolutionary people. We expect
to be called back to Soviet Russia"
Both she and Berkman predicted a
revolution in this country within five
wears.
