NEW MOVIE THEATRE
FOR BAY St. LOUIS.

Extensive improvements are plan
ned by the Bay Sea Food Co., for Its
premises at the head of Washington
street, on the beach front. These i'm
provements are extensive and will
| mean much to the city. It is expec-
ted that it will not only be long af-
ter the holidays before the work will
begin on the improvements, on the
company's pier and on the street
beach front.
The pier will be extended so as to
permit the large steamers to land
aside broadside, thereby affording
ample space and facilities for load
ing and unloading automobiles,
freight, etc. This will mean much
to Bay st. Louis inasmuch as it will
afford the biggest vessels of the
Sound to land either for passengers
or freight.
Arrangements are being made
with a New Orleans firm to put two
large boats in commission to handle
the freight trade, assuring the local
merchants of two sailings out of
New Orleans weekly. They will
cater to the freight business, and
will be in q position to cut the pres
ent high freight rates in two. Mar
inc insurance will be carried, and in
case of loss by fire or storm, the
Merchants will be fully protected.

ANITA STEWART
DIXIE MONDAY
Night Riders Scene to be Shown In
Thrilling Film at Dixie
Theatre.

The night riders chase is one OF
the big scenes in the First National
special production, In old Ken
lucky" with Anita Stewart, which
will be shown at the Dixie Theatre
on Monday, May 80.
The setting of the picture is back
in the old lawless days when the
moonshiners defied the law and
when men of the mountains still
settled their differences with the
gun, while the men of the cities,
impatient of the delays of the law
often took it into their own hands.
Night Riders Organized.
So were the night riders formed,
men who masked and hunted the
fugitives on horseback, where they
held quick trial and condemned
the victim according to their views
of justice.
In the story the night riders were
called out to pursue mountaineer,
who had been accused of setting fire
to barn, drugging a jockey and at
tempting to shoot one of the first
citizens.
They are informed of the trail he
has taken back to his mountain
home and come out in scores to cap
ture him. Masked rider after mask
ed rider appears at the rendezvous
until all are present when they take
up the chase.
They race pe1l NELL over the noun
famous country, leaping hedge and
stream and gallop madly oyer the
rough rocky roads on the edge of
cliffs and ravines or across country
in small paths or no paths. 1t is a
stirring chase by experienced riders
for a misstep would mean. serious
injury or even death.
Gain ON Fugitive.
Gradually they gain on the fugitive
until he is finally captured, and the
preliminaries of the trial are ar
ranged for in the darkness of the
night, lighted only by torches,
But an even more daring ride is
taken by Miss Stewart, who plays the
part of the little mountain girl in the
picture. She hears of the night
riders seeking the mountaineer who
is a childhood friend of hers. She
knows that he is innocent, but that
the evidence is against him, and
fears that he will be slain before
She reaches him.
Miss Stewart follows the trail lett
by the night riders, outriding the
men both in daring and speed, and
finally comes up to them just as
they are about to execute an limo
cent man.
She presents the evidence of his
innocence and the guilt of one of
the leaders of the party. Everyone
is then ordered to unmask All do
so except the guilty man. He makes
dash to escape, and another chase
is on, But the fugitives horse slips
and he is precipitated over a high
cliff, which ends the work of the
night riders in the picture.
The spectacle of this night ride is
so realistic and strong, it holds tense
everyone watching the picture.

WIN. FARNUM ON
NEXT SATURDAY
Comes Here I'm Big Emotional Play
Saturday, Ellis Greatest
Sacrifice"

The popular William Farnum will
be here again next Saturday in a
big emotional photoplay called His
Greatest Sacrifice" This will be
shown at the Dixie Theatre.
The dramatic art as. exemplified
on the screen by Mr., Farnum has
been a joy to all motion picture fol-
lowers, and, according to advance
reports, His Greatest Sacrifice" is a
picture that gives the star an oppor-
tunity to lay all of his great screen
powers at the feet of the photodra-
matte public.
The story has to do with the lives
of husband and wife, who both have
ambitions to gather the applause of
the public-she as. an opera singer
and he as a writer. He feels that
his work will rebound to the credit
and the enjoyment of his wife and
child, while she is selfish and vain,
and seeks only the personal joy and
position her voice will bring her.
She achieves fame, but she loses
what she later learns to be the great
est joy--the love of her husband
and her child.
Alice Fleming plays the wife and
Evelyn Greedy the daughter, in this

|HAMMERSTEIN'S
NEW FILM PLAY
Selznick Star to Appear at Dixie
Theatre i'm s'The Daughter
Pays june 1.

"The Daughter Pays" adapted
from the book of the same name by
Mrs. Bailie Reynolds, will be the
next Elaine Hammerstein production
to be shown at the Dixie Theatre
when this latest Selznick picture will
headline the program for one day
beginning on Wednesday, June 1st,
This production brings to light
two questions which are of great
Importance to all families, in that
they reveal two phases of home
life besetting all young girls on the
verge of the marital altar.
The author asks how great sac
rifice should a mother demand of
her daughter in the name of filial
piety, and whether a woman dare
risk her future happiness by marry
ing for money.
Upon these questions there is sal !
to have been erected a superstruc-
ture that for sheer entertainment has
rarely been surpassed.
The story has been adapted for the
screen by r. Cecil Smith, the con
tinuity expert who has recently been
placed under contract to write ex-
clusiyely for Selznick. Robert Ellis
who directed "A Fool and His
Money" and THE Figurehead" for
Eugene OBrien, also directed "The
Daughter Pays" his first picture
with Miss Hammerstein
Mr.. Ellis also plays an important
part in the cast, which contains
many notable names, such as Nor
man Trevor who was recently seen
with Emily Stevens in the play
"Foot-Loose,' and who is now play
ing the lead in a big Broadway pro-
duction; Theresa Maxwell Conover,
who was a big factor in the success
of my Lady Friends" and others
of similar established reputation.
