OF SCARCITY OF NEWS

Elko Independent. Especially during
the winter season, when everybody
is showed in and does nothing but
eat. sleep and worry about his income
tax. It's only once in a lifetime that
fellows like Indian Tony cut loose
and relieve the situation for one edi-
ton. An old editor of this paper
used to head his local column with
the almost daily complaint, News
is scarcer than hens teeth" The
difficulty is that a hen can get along
without teeth, but the Hicktown Bee
has a helluva time getting by without

dizzy peaks.
While DR.. Armstrong gave freely
of his great professional skill in the
humble village homes or toiled up
the SNOWY slopes of the towering
mountains, Lieutenant Won Steuben
piled his arts in the comfortable salon
of the hotel.
Margaret, at heart a good woman
and a true wife, bitterly resented the
advances of the lieutenant until his
suavity and courtesy broke down the
barrier of her discretion and she yield
ed, to a mild degree, to his siege.
A midnight tryst, into which Mar
garet has been forced, is interrupted
by the watchful Sepp, and Won Steu-
ben has to postpone the meeting until
a more convenient time. Sepp, the
guide, who adores as hero the great
DR.. Armstrong, illustrates the plans OF
the love vulture.
On the day following, the energetic
surgeon asks Won Steuben to ascend
difficult peak with him. He, too'
had become suspicious, but no one
knew what was in his mind.
Physically weak, with only the flres
of desire to keep him alive, Won Steu-
ben trembles at the mere thought OF
such an expedition, but to avoid the
ridicule of Margaret he goes. All the
way up the peak DR.. Armstrong helps
the weakling, predicting, banteringly
that he will have to carry him bodily
on the trip down, which is more dan
perous even than the ascent.
Won Steuben stumbles in the snow
A letter falls from his pocket. He
snatches it up, but too late, for at a
glance DR.. Armstrong recognizes the
handwriting of his wife. A trace OF
suspicion is magnifed a thousand
fold. He tries to snatch it from the
weakling's hand. A gust OF WIND
carries it into the ravine below
Crushed with sorrow and maddened
with rage the doctor presses Won Steu'
ben for confession.
He demands the truth, saying that

goes. Armstrong relies upon ms
knowledge of human nature to tel
whether or not Won Steuben lies.

BLIND HUSBANDS" AT ACADEMY
THEATRE, TUESDAY NIGHT, JUNE |
This Picture Shows the Beautiful Scenes and Dazzling
Peaks Of the Alps interviewer with Thrilling Love
Plot---Admssion, Including Tax, 3Sc and 55c

DIR. Robert Armstrong. a famous
American surgeon, and his wife Mar
garet, go to the Alps to rest after
strenuous season; he tired out by his
vast professional work, she by her
social philanthropic activities.
DR.. Armstrong loves his wife dearly
but like many other Americans, as
sumes that she knows it without DEM
onstration on his part. In her heart
Margaret Armstrong longs for
glimmer of romance and adventure
to supplant the prosaic affection OF
her scientifically obsessed husband.
They arrive in Cortina D'Ampezzo
in the post-coach and stay at the
Hotel Croce Blanca, where they are
known and where they are welcomed
with Tyrolean courtesy and simple
ity of manner.
DR.. Armstrong renews his whole
some acquaintance with Silent
Sepp Innerkoffer, primitive, simple
hearted Alpine guide whose life Arm
strong had saved previously on a
mountain climbing expedition and
who feels that he owes the doctor
lifelong devotion. Together they
plan dangerous expeditions to the
peaks of the magnificent mountains
around them. Margaret, the doctors
wife, seems to be automatically left
out of her husbands vacation plans
he assumes, as usual, that she will
amuse herself and be content with
luxury and an expensive wardrobe.
Lieutenant Eric Won Stuben of the
Austrian army arrives at the Alpine
hotel in the same conveyance with
the distinguished surgeon and his
wife. The lieutenant's gold braid
might well have been yellow streak,
but it had the dazzle of battle and the
form of a man concealed the foul
being of love vulture.
The lieutenant made himself gra-
cious,af the manner of continentals
and filed in the void left by the sur
geon's apparent indifference to his
wife's heart happiness.
Where other men braved the dan
gers of the Alps and sought sport in
conquering nature, Lieutenant Won
Steuben conquered women, wrecked
homes and broke vows, at the same
time boasting Of the mastery of the

tenant thinks that the doctor will not
believe him even if he tells him the
truth-that he had ony attempted to
ruin his wife's honor. He lies and ad-
mits the improper relation.
True to his promise DR.. Armstrong
relinquishes his hold on the blanched
and quivering lieutenant. He had full
filled his promise. Deliberately and
cody he cuts the rope that joins the
two of them for protection. "There
is no law of God or man that can
compel me to take you down." ne
SAYS. Then he starts down the tor
tuous decent.
With downcast glance and heavy
load of grief the doctor makes his
way painfully. He seems to have lost
his strength. Before him in the snow
he sees the letter. He snatches it up
eagerly and reads it.
1t is from Margaret to Won Steuben
and expresses her regret at her IN
nocent though indiscreet filtration,
processes her love only for her hus-
band and warns the officer to bother
her no longer with his attentions.
DIR. Armstrong, overcome with the
gratifying discovery Of his wife's
faithfulness suddenly loses his hold
and falls. His arm is broken and ne
is rendered unconscious, but his body
is safely wedged in crevice.
All day Margaret's mind had been
filled with forebodings of disaster.
At last she summons Sepp and tells
him she knows her husband is in
danger. Faithful fellow that he is,
Sepp starts a rescue party and finally
finds the unconscious form Of the
doctor.
In a moment after he perceives that
he can expect no help from DIR. Arm
strong, the lieutenant becomes panic
stricken. Already the vultures are
slowly winging their way around him.
He catches sight of one that has set
tied near him and weak with fright,
falls over the cliff and is dashed to
death.
The guides find DR.. Armstrong un-
conscious from pain. He is revived
and his arm is set. His first thought
after smiling tenderly up at his wife
is for Won Steuben. But his concern
is in vain.
Upon his recovery DR.. Armstrong
learns that the fires of love must be
famed. He listens to the inspired
words of advice from simple-hearted
Sepp and as he and his wife drive
away in the post coach, Sepp smiles
through his tears contentedly, realiz-
ing that the wife of his dearest friend
will find happiness again.
