WILLIAM FARNUM'S BIG FILM Is
BASED ON POPULAR NOVEL.

"The Redemption of David Corson"
Has Thrills and Great Heart Appeal.
Admittedly one of the strongest
photoplays ever produced, "The Re-
demption of David Corson," starring
William Farnum, the popular screen
star, will be shown at the Nogales
Theatre tomorrow. The picture was
adapted from the celebrated novel of
the same name writttn by Charles
Frederick Goss and which for years
was one of the best sellers.
The story of "The Redemption of
David Corson" is one of unusual dra-
matte strength and charm. David
Corson is a mystic, strong in his adj
vocacy of. his ideals, and he lives in a
world the cornerstone of which are
purity and sanctity. He is an orator
and lives in small town beloved by
all for his admirable traits as teacher
and man.

life young woman-Pepeeta, Span
ish girl, who assists DR.. Paracelsus
in the sale of fake cures. The physic-
ian, who claims Pepeeta as his wife,
hears of Corson's eloquence as speak
er and offers him a position with
him. Corson has seen Pepeeta and
chained by her beauty, he accepts the
offer and thereby changes the entire
course of his life.
Corson becomes madly infatuated
with Pepeeta who returns his passion
and they elope. The angry physician
tracks them down and in fierce
struggle, Corson leaves the physician
for dead. Corson now sinks into the
, depths. He becomes hopeless sot
and gambler and even Pepeeta leaves
him in despair. She subsequently re-
enters his life and aids in his spiritual
and physical regeneration.
The story is finely developed and
the various scenes are filled with
thrill and heart appeal. The cast is
excellent.

ing young wife, again appears as
heroine of a marital mix-up in her
latest comedy, "Sauce for the Goose" :"
by Geraldine Bonner and Hutcheson
Boyd.
The story tells of pretty young
wife, Kitty Constable Constance Tai
madge), neglected by her more serious
husband, who is being roped in sue
cessfully by the willy widow, Mrs. AL
loway, under the guise of collabora-
ton in a book on "Woman's Strug-
gles." John accordingly spends near
ly all his time with the work and the
widow, but when he fails to take Kit
ty to the opera as promised, the worm
begins to turn: Kitty knows and likes
young Travers, whose apartment is
in the house with Mrs. Alloway's own,
and she invites him to attend the
opera with her. After the return
home, Travers invites her to. supper
at his rooms and she accepts.
Sylvester is an admirer of Mrs. AL
loway's and he selects this particular
evening to drop in on Travers to in
quire about the lady of his choice.
Travers at that moment is absent and
he climbs up the fire escape to the
Alloway apartment, detrmind to know
the worst.
Meanwhile John goes home, finds
Kitty's note and starts back after her.
Mrs. Alloway and Sylvester appear in
the Travers apartment and Kitty
locks them into a room while she
locks Travers on the roof and then
goes off to bed. John spends sleep
less night in search for her and fl
nally in the morning she appears at
the Travers apartment to let the pris-
oners out. 1t transpires that she had
gone home to bed and that Johns
search. would have ended if he had
looked in just the right place. Alps
we'll that ends we'll, for John decides
that Kitty is a woman worth few
struggles on his own account and he
abandons the literary pursuits.
At the Nogales Theatre this after
noon and evening.

Dorothy Phillips first Jewel pic

called "Destiny" and it is based on a
widely-read novel by Charles Neville

"Destiny'' presents several novel
ties. In the first place, the leading
man, William Stowell, is Miss Phil
lips brother instead of the customary
sweetheart, the latter part being
played by Harry Hilliard, once Theda

In the second place, the picture

such preesnt-day playwrights as Max

FIGHT AGAINST PACT
RESUMED BY JOHNSON

DES MONIES. Sept 15.-Having
addressed between forty and fifty
thousand men and women who vocif-
erously cheered him during the first
four days of his tour, Senator johnson
arrived here from Kansas City to re-
sumo his fight against the treaty.
at is obvious from the response of
people to the issue I'm presenting why
the administration insists upon such
haste in disposing of the treaty" said
johnson. TITS proponents desire to
have it hurriedly approved before our
people can learn what it really means
to them. The senate had the treaty
just two months while the president
spent seven months with it, while
European and Asiatic powers pieced
their secret agreements together as
a basis of the document now pre-
sented"

GOOD WORDS FOR CRICSBY
 COME BY WIRE

The people of Alaska have accept cd the nomination of Attorney-Gener- al George E. Grig9by with remark able unanimity. Telegrams continue to pour in from various sections of the Territory conveying the infor- nation that the people are for him.
 Telegrams received from Fairbanks this morning say the people are very well satisfied with the result of the Democratic convention, and that the full vote of the Democratic party and many Republican votes will be given to Mr Grigsby.
 The Fairbanks Citizen editorially this morning said:
 "The Citizen supported Senator Hess for the nomination because it believed he was the best man avail able, but Attorney-General Grigsby is equally competent and satisfac- tory. He will serve the people loy- ally and well.'
 George J. Love of Valdez in a telegram of reorganization added his assurance to the guarantees that have come from others that MT. Grigsby will receive large majority at that place

"LOVE'S CONQUEST" IS
 LINE CAVALlERPS NEW PARAMOUNT PHOTOPLAY

With thousands of men and women appearing in the new Paramount pho toplay, Loves Conquest" in sup port of Lima Cavalieri, the cele- brated Diva, this is said to be one of the largest picture productions ever made in this country. The picture, which will be shown at the Coliseum Theatre tonight is, in ev- cry respect, a remarkable produc- tion. Splendidly directed by Edward Jose, from scenario prepared by Charles E. Whitaker, Mme. Cava- lieri portrays a role of great power that of Gismonda, an Athenian duchess, a beautiful widow, who is wooed in vain by many noblemen. who seek to possess themselves of both her riches and jewels. In the portrayal of this role Mime. Cava- lieri wears her famous jewels, which long have been source of amaze ment and delight to operatic de- voices.
 Gismonda has four-year-old son, whom she loves with passionate de votion, and when Prince Zaccaria, relative, seeks her hand in mar riage, she spurns his offer. Jealous of the child, the Prince orders one of his lieutenants to thrust the in- fant into an amphitheatre where a magnificent lion he had presented
The Alaska daily empire., 1919-05-06

to Gismonda is confined. When Gis- monda hears of this so-called "acci- dent" she publicly announces, as she stands within the shadow of the cross that she will wed the man who rescues her child from death
 Almerio, a common huntsman, en- ters the amphitheatre, beats off the lion and brings the child safely to his mothers arms. When he claims the fulfillment of her VOW she refuses on the ground that he is of plebian birth and unworthy of her. She per sists in her refusal despite the op- position of the populace, and it is only when Almerio brings her the head of the bandit who has been ravishing her province, that the we'll springs of her love gush forth and prompt her later to espouse him pub licly.
 In the development of this tre- mendous Sardou story there are scenes of unusual thrill and most convincing heart appeal. Mme. Cav alieri is splendidly supported by a capable cast of players, chief among whom are Courtney Foote, Fred Rad cliffe and Frank Lee.

 thors, H. B. and M c. Daniel and the scenario writer, Harvey Thaw, have struck the chord that will find it's response in the heart of every American man, woman and child.
