PAINTING COMES TO LIFE IN FILM

One Of the most impressive scenes in "The Third Woman" the Robert son Cole Superior picture, which is 10 be seen st the Palace Theatre for two days starting tomorrow, is that in which the large picture on the wall in wealthy mans library "comes 10 life" The mans son, Luke Halliday. has just learned a vital secret regarding his own birth.
 Standing in his fathers home in an exclusive section of an Eastern city in the very midst of a great party being given to announce his engagement to a society girl. the son witnesses a strange transformation. An Indian figure which is looking out over the desert in the picture turns and beckons to him. The fire in the picture smokes and the dress of the Indian flaps in the wind. Then of a sudden, all is still and il is only a picture again.

AUCTION OF SOULS" AT THE COLISEUM

Auction of Souls" which will be for the last timo tonight, given as benefit for the fund for starving children in Europe, has the unusual distinction of having leading wo- man who actually enacted the orig .nal scenes which the moving picture reproduces. Miss Aurora Mardigdn- ian, the girl who has the leading role. is not a motion picture actress, but was induced to act for the film just what she actually passed through in 1915.
 Miss Mardiganian's inexperience before the camera is not apparent in the picture for she holds up her own end as well as any of the regular actors and actresses. Perhaps her art is bern of the vivid memory af the horrible scenes through which she passed before escaping from her native land to come to America sor further relief. ..-. -#.-.-. 70. ..,...

weight in his blows. Dexteyity and
suppleness are claimed as advan-
tages for the Frenchman by his fol
lowers, but just how hard a punch
he can deliver is still a problem.
Dempsey showed in his bout with
Willard at Toledo that his blows pos
sess enormous punishing power but
his more recent encounters with Bill
Brennan at Madison Square Garden
did not demonstrate that he still
retains the forceful punch necessary
to successfully stand off a man Of
Carpenters undoubted ability and
Cleverness.
Just how good the challenger is or
how hard a blow he can land is
problematical to the majority Of
American fstic patrons who have
seen him in action. His only bout
here, that with Levinsky in Jersey
City last year, did not afford much
of a line on Carpenters prowess.
Levinsky, always clever boxer,
made practically no effort to defend
himself on that occasion and went
down and out an easy victim for
the Frenchman in the fourth round.
