produce witnesses to prove that the
states attorney had failed to do his

In an article published in The Era

by the agitation Of false statements
concerning this case, Mr.. Brock chal-

of any instance wherein he had

Big double bill at Magic City The
ater Friday, July 18th. Norma Tai
madge in ''The Isle of Conquest" and
Joe Martin in "a Jazz Monkey"
In "The Isle of Conquest" Norma
Talmadge's new Select special, the
charming star again demonstrates
that there is no height of expression
too lofty for her.
Her versatility is generously drawn
upon as she journeys through the
roles of an innocent convent girl to
an unhappy wifehood and thence to
a life of isolation upon a tropical
island with a lone man companion,
there to find complete happiness and
contentment. Always pleasing and
capable, the star ascends to the full
height of her emotional talents and
holds the interest from beginning to
end.
''The Isle of Conquest" is a fast
moving drama treating with a young
girls marriage to a wealthy waster,
through the efforts of a designing
mother. Later, the yacht upon which
they are cruising is wrecked and she
finds herself safe upon an uninhab-
tied island with a stoker from the
ships hold. Months OF isolation kim
dies within them mutual love and,
all hope of rescue having persisted,
they are preparing to enact their
marriage rite when suddenly her hus-
band appears to return her to his
world of shap. Here the circum-
stances become tragic, concluding
with an unexpected and sensational
climax.
The play was adapted to the screen
by John Emerson and Anita Loos
from Arthur Hornsblow's novel, BY
Right of Conquest" and was directed
by Edward Jose.

Grady Gets Bullet
in Bread Basket

Avenue R was the scene of much
excitement early Sunday morning
when the crack of a revolver and a
fluttering dash, of female attire evi-
denced fleeing dame from one of
the houses. The shooting affair, for
that is what it was, came about in
the following manner:
One, Grady Evans, being a bach
elOr, with homing instinct, had per-
suaded Rosie Butler to bring him the
comforts of solace and the road was
smooth and the way was rosy. But
Rosie Butler was woman of fine
judgment and dared to express her
opinion. She opined that Grady was
crazy.
Now Grad~-- Evans is not a man to
be insulted by a transient woman,
so he ups and exercises truly hus-
bandal rights and gives the obstrep-
erous Rosie one first-class flogging.
All this was, according to Grady, as
it should have been, until Rosie re-
turned a few minutes later with the
information that she had omitted to
serve the breakfast food and would
give him a feed that would spoil his
breakfast from now till kingdom
come. She whipped out her gun and
the X-ray machine at the local hos
Dital, where Grady Evans is conva-
lescing, shows that the bullet is now
located between the twenty-second
and twenty-third vertebraes. The
Butler woman is in Jail.
