AT THE CRYSTAL Trooper Al is a
thrilling story of love and adventure. "A

tain Adams was a guest of the Topeka
Chamber Of Commerce about a year ago.
rough country but the addition of the
mounted police serves to raise it above the
average. Many screen stories of even
greater merit could be selected from the
annals of the Pennsylvania police. Altho
there is plenty of action the theme of the
story unravels little slowly in places.
AT THE ORPHEUM Courtney Foote
plays double role in The Bronze Bell
a story of India that is replete with thrills
and action. The double role stuff in this
picture is carried to bold extreme without
the slightest hitch. The play could be
improved by n little more scenery, but the
Orientalism is there and there are some
India to Long Island and back again.
Doris May plays up to standard in the
leaGlng feminine role and John Davidson,
mendable for his clever acting. For time
the story appears rather confused but there
is a surprise at the end which clears up
the situation. The main attraction is fol-
lowed by Larry Semon comedy-.tThe
Bakery" that is only fair.
AT THE ISIS-Viola Dana is featured
In The Offshore Pirate a picture, de-
lightfuily refreshing to heart and mind.
There is enough trouble in real life with
out imbibing big gobs of imaginary tears
and this story is welcome change from
the ordinary run of photoplays. There is
not sad scene in the whole show and
scores of laughs.
Miss Dana is at her best in this play.
There is surprise at the end which
rather jars the nerves and makes the spec
tator jealous because he wasn't let in on
the secret which the million dollar heroine
shared all the time. The producers take
advantage of the ignorance of the audience
to pull a lot of good stuff but the in
suit is quickly forgotten in the happy
ending Moreover, this picture proves a
well known fact-that there is no use
lying to a woman for the purpose of de
ceiving her; she will enjoy it more than

side of a spacious room with display
of richly colored panels. The ward

it are ranged on hooks and hangers
such an array of mans suits, inner
and outer, overcoats, shirts, neckties,
and what not as would make one or
two hole-in-the-wall shops ashamed
of themselves.
Understand it well. This man in
question is more of a Beau Brummel
now than he was when in Topeka.
Then he wore morning coats, gray
trousers, spatS and a cane with a GER

does it quite casually, and altho he is
a self made man he gets away with it
as tho to the manner born
On a recent trip to Topeka this man
was target for questions asked by a
close personal friend who had been
vouchsafed a view of the interior of
the mysterious, but well furnished
office wardrobe. The explanation was
this: Sometimes am called to take
train within very short periods of
time. Maybe have only twenty min
utes after the call to catch the train.
With this outfit here in the office all
I have to do is call a taxi, get my
clothes changed while it is on the way.
and with a freshly packed grip catch
my train. If 1 had to rush out home
to get my things I would nine times
out of ten miss the train, and perhaps
an important business appointment. -
Inquiry among the busiest business
men in Topeka has brought to light
the fact that many of them keep
packed grips at both their residences
and their offices for use in case of
, emergency calls. But not one has
been found whose preparations can
hold even the flicker of a candle to
the elaborate layout of the former
mentioned.

Omaha. Nov. 4-Bert Acosta, of
New York, today holds a new worlds
record for an airplane flight over a
closed course. The record-176.7
miles an hour-was made in the sec
ond annual race for the Pulitzer tro-

the $50 miles race, or five laps of
thirty miles each, was So minutes 90
seconds.
The race was marred by an accident
in which Col. H. E. Hartley, driving a
Thomas-Morse monoplane, crashed to
earth a few minutes after the start.
Colonel Hartley, altho seriously in
jured, will recover, physicians said to-
day.
Just after the race ended, Harry
Eibe, a veteran parachute jumper fell
into the Missouri river after a leap
from an altitude of 1000 feet and was
drowned.
Clarence Coombs, with a speed of
ITO miles an hour; Capt. John Nc

Lloyd Bertaud with 140 miles an hour,
finished second, third and fourth, re-
spectively.
