An rHE NiALEsTIC.

Thomas Mcighan Is once more IN
A crook role. He is really not guilty
but the role partakes Of prisons and
the escape from the law. The pic
ture is called "The City Of Silent
Men" and begins its engagement to-
day at the Majestic Theatre.
"The City Of Silent Men" is Sing
sing. It's long drab lines OF cells,
its bitter. hardened solemn faced
men form part and parcel Of this
picture which is the first that was
ever photographed in Sing Sing.
Director Tom Forman secured spe-
cial permission from Warden Lewis
r. Lawes to do this. SO the effect
seen in the photoplay is the real
thing and not a set built on a studio
lot
Mr.. Meighan plays the role Of a
young man who is made the foil Of
crooks and sent TO prison for a crime
II which he is innocent. He escapes
and going west. builds his life anew
and seems destined for future hap
piness but for the shadow Of prison
that st.ll waits for him.
THE City Of Silent Men" is a
forceful picture and a serious one.
But It's seriousness is often relieved
by some bright cheerful comedy that
makes the picture more plasing to
the audiences.
Thomas Meighan's role is a good
one and he handles il with his
usual unusual" precision and force.

AT THE QUEEN.

Tom Mix is becoming such a reg
ular star at the Queen Theatre that
he never requires any special ex-
ploitation or advertising to bring
him to the attention OF the public.
Mix attracts attention for himself.
Everybody who likes him knows that
he is to be at the Queen Theatre this
week in After Your own Heart"
OF course After Your own
Heart" is a Western picture. But Il
is the West of 1921 modern to its
fngertips and its automobiles. All
the inventions Of modern science
that have any application to ranch
business are included In this picture.
A few more of Mix's own connections
are added.
All the principals OF After Your
own Heart" are cowboys and cow
girls but instead of riding in a shin
ing saddle they round up the cattle
In high powered cars and care not a

After Your own Heart" tells the
story Of a college-bred Western

time-honored precedents.

Dawson's opinion on Maysville's clas-
sification given Mr.. Sherman Arm:
Frankfort, KY, October 21. 1921.
Mr.. Sherman Arm, Maysville, KY.
Dear Sir: - have your letter Of
October goth In which you desire to
know In what class the City Of Mays
Vile now Is, and what city officers, II
any, are to be elected this fall in the
City of Maysville.
Chapter 1874, page 696, of the Acts Of
1920, makes Maysville city of the
third class. This bill was passed, en-
rolled and signed on March 18th, 1920,
and carried an emergency clause. 1t
was neither approved nor disapproved
by the Governor, and therefore, under
the decisions of the Court in similar
cases, this law became effective on the
day Of its passage.
Chapter 164 expressly provides that
all officers holding office at the time
Of the passage of that act, in any Of
the cities changed from one class to
another, shall continue in Office until
the end of their respective terms,
Maysville, prior to the passage Of
Chapter 164 Of the Acts Of 1920, was a
city of the fourth class and Of course
had the officers provided for by law
for fourth class cities. These officers
continue to serve until their terms
have expired, at which time there
must be elected the officers provided
by law for third class cities.
There should be no difficulty in this
matter, and would advise you to con-
suit your City Attorney in order to
know what officers, If any, are to be
elected in Maysville this fall. The last
day for filing nomination petitions for
city officers will be October oath.
Very truly yours,
CHAS. I. DAWSON,
