Question is Settled
According to the statement Of
City Attorney C. e. Gilmore to the
Free Press this forenoon, the vote
taken Saturday settles the question
of the ordinance, and lifts the ars.-..
den of paving in the future from
company but does not relieve or
exempt it from the repairs
City Attorney Gilmore said that
in case the Mankato Electric Trac-
ton company decides to file its
franchise with the state railway
and warehouse commission, the
company will have to file with the
city clerk written declaration
that it wishes its franchise to be-
come an indeterminate permit ana
consent to the terms of the act in
chapter 27S of the general laws or
1921, shall govern its management
and the operation of its franchise.

ate permit Should the street car
company file its declaration with
the city clerk, that official SHAH
issue to the street railway company

file this with the state railway ana

expressed himself as feeling high
ly gratifed over the result Of the
election. He declared that the ex-
cellent spirit shown. by the people
of Mankato toward the Electric
Traction company meant much for
this community.
The following are expressions
from p. M. Ferguson, president OF
the Kiwanis Club and John Nyuuist
president of the citizens committee
on the outcome of Saturdays
street car election:
P. M. Ferguson Chairman Of the
Kiwanis club. II do not believe
that the way the present ordinance
is framed is exactly the way. Ny
idea was to have the abutttng pro-
perty pave to the middle Of the
street, and that the excess cost
should be borne by the general
public. But the present ordinance
gives the relief asked for, and that
was the critical question. am
mighty glad to know that the citi-
zens Of Mankato shouldered this
additional burden. which is not
great on any one in order to retain
the street car system, which means
so much to this city"
John Nyquist, chairman OF the
Civic and Commerce Association
committee: while it was not my
personal idea exactly as to the way
of paying for the paving, / am
glad that the election came out as
1t did, and that Mankato is prog
ressing and boosting and not going
backward My idea was to have
the property owners pay for the
paving. to the center of the street,
and the city take care of the ex-
cess cost of paving on the right Of
way

Broadway Rose" the latest Tiffany

portrait gallery OF Miss Mae Murray. II

One sees her from almost every con-

Whenever the picture runs dry OF

are superfiuous. for when a wealthy

the screen states POLITICALLY, The mar

veals it's fraying strands" and the next
scene shows Miss Murray having
tantrun. or course. Miss Murray Is en-
titled to have tantrums. since she plays
just as inevitably is the toast of the
town.
Miss Murray is coming to depict this
type of character so often. with rich
young men always at her feet, that the
chief interest in watching her pictures
consists in observing what new and fan
tastic stairways her apartment will
have. what curious doors will slide back
and what remarkable headdresses she
will carry about amid all this gilded
grandeur
Robert Y. Leonard has produced Ed
mund Goulding's obvious story with a
care and iavishness that almost lift 1t
out OF the commonplace. and it's a pity
he hasn't controlled Miss Murray to the
same effect, for she can act. Now she
seems to confine herself to wearing so
many golden clothes she appears to have
been dipped In the mint. Even when
being emotional she dances. or at least
gallops around the room like one of the
pony ballet. Monte Blue and Ray

Miss Murray has a following that will
doubtless jam the Capitol to see what
she's wearing this time.

ALICE BRADY AND
REAL FILM THRILLS
Popular Com mbination In Miss
ing Millions

For scven-cighths or its length Miss
ing Millions" Miss Alice Brady's latest
vehicle, screened at the Rialto yesterday.
comes within striking distance of being
the best crook thriller ever produced In
films, qualified to challenge all comers.
It just loses on points, you might say
for in the end it suddenly gets stuck in
a bog OF sentimentality.
The plotting of Mary Dnpson and
Boston Btdckic to ruin FrdnkIin, a Wall
Street operator who had double crossed
Mdry's father. is as absorbing as any
thing portrayed In screeniand since the
war. The sympathy of the spectator Is
adroitly reused for the crooks by show
ing how Frdnklin, after promising TO re-
lease the wrongfully imprisoned father
II Mary and Bidckie will return his
stolen jewelry, let's the old man die In
Jail amid hearty curses from the crooks.
They set out TO get revenge by steal
ing the gold bullion coming by ship TO
save him from a financial crash. and
their Vaccinations on the steamer are
as good as a correspondence course in
high class burglary. Turn succeeds turn
enthrallingly, not only because Of the
smart direction of Joseph Henabery and
the vigorous scenario by Albert Shelby
lie Vine, but because of Jack BOYLE,
author OF the original. who has earned
a reputation as the writer OF finished
underworld stories that rarely lose mo-
mentum. In the end the gang make
away with the gold ingots, mainly with
the help of what seems like a young
iady.s seminary accomplices. One had
always thought II was a principle OF
thievery to work with the fewest pos
sible confcderates. but that just shows
how innocent one can be about crime.
In the end. with revenge In her grasp,
Mary decides to return the stolen gold
for no particular reason except that
the innocent purser Is wrongly suspected
OF the theft and Mdry likes the way
he parts his hair. There Is something
TO be said for an ending which leaves a
couple of rnomentarily Croesuslike crooks
with nothing but the carfare to spend
their honeymoon at Coney Island.
But even an actress OF Miss Bradys
sincere talent finds II hard TO over
come the inept denoucment-and Miss
Brady possesses the very rare attribute
or thinking before the camera, and MAX
ing an audience realize she has the ma
terial to think with.
David Powell has an attractive per-
sonallty for Bfnckie and the very best
mustache possible for a Raffies. Riley
Hatch. William q. Mack and George LIE
Guere are adequate for supporting roles,
and OF course II is roregone conclusion
that Frank Losee would play the un-
scrupulous operator so well he deserved
