DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS IS AT COLISEUM ON FOURTH

An optical feast is promised to picture patrons when Douglas Fair banks new photo-feature, The Nut, opens at the Coliseum tomorrow, matinee, on Tuesday night and also Wednesday.
 According to advance reports re- garding this production, the public may expect to view d real celluloid innovation. For originality and nov city of treatment. this picture is said to excel anything yet attempted by the ingenious Doug" Although no announcement has been made of the exact nature of the photoplay, it is understood to provide a new type of characterization for the popular star.
 A statement issued from the New York office of the United Artists. which is releasing this screen offer ing. conveys the information that "The Nut" deals with the adventures of an eccentric young inventor who falls in love with a girl in New York's historic Greenwich Village. 'Dougs" adventures as gay LOtha- TIC are Sdlu lO luVOlNc SOlIlS Ol lliS most amazing and comical complica- tions ever shown upon the screen. Much of the "business" for the story, as well as data relating to the '1ocations" was gathered personally by Fairbanks during his stay in New York just after his return from Flu rope last fall.
 With Kenneth Davenport, author of tho piece, tho star lived two weeks in the famous Bohemian quarters of the metropolis and made an intimate study of those eccentric and talented people who live in the Village.
 It is believed that as result of these observations the picture-going public will be given the most life like interpretation of the characteris- tics and mannerisms of these remark able folk that has ever yet been shown.

LACE OF HEARTS" WITH LON CHANEY AT THE PALACE

The new photoplay at the Palace Theater last night, was Ace of Hearts" by Gourverneur Morris, and was produced by Goldwyn, who also made this authors powerful story, "The Penalty" Those who saw the latter picture will remember the marvellous fmpersonation of a fegless man by Lon Chaney. This remark able character actor has one of the three leading parts in Ace of Hearts" The other leading roles are taken by Leatrice Joy and John Bowers.
 The story is powerful drama, dealing with the aim of fanatical group of reformers to destroy all the cvil-doers in the world. They are so obsessed with their idea, that they do not realize the fact that to destroy individuals will not raise the moral tone of the universe. This truth does not come home to the group as whole but the girl and the man she loves, who are members of the group, realize that their love is a far greater thing than the destruc- tion of few overweening material ,iats. How they find peace and how the designs of their colleagues are thwarted furnish many thrilling epi- sodes.
 There arc some excellent photo

DOROTHY DALTON IN
 IDOL OF THE NORTH" AT COLISEUM THEATER

Dorothy Dalton, known as the Al aska girl, is the featured star at the Coliseum in the Idol of the North, " on last night and again tonight for the fast time.
 A complete "traT' city, the his 'torical duplicate of Dawson City in 1897, was built at Arctic City, a motion picture suburb of Port Henry N r., for the exterior scenes of "The Idol of the North" The story, by J. Clarkson Miller, deals with the virils struggle for life in the great Canadian Northwest and afforded ex- ceilent opportunity for picturesque photography.
 For purposes of the picture. "Totem City" was built. Almost over night the Aurora Borealis saloon and dance hall, the Ritz Hotel, Brissac cabin, and Bates cabin, sprang up like magic. The river was bridged in one place with a typical wooden span such as the gold seekers used in 1897. The rugged beauty of the scene was enhanced by the heavy snow that fell during the company's s stay at Port Henry and R. William Neill. director. was able to film many effective exterior scenes for the picture.
 Arctic City, the scene of the un- usual activities of the Dalton com- pany, has q unique place in motion picture making. Nearly all of the Alaskan and Canadian Northwest pie lures are taken in or near the viii iage, because the hills. the river and the woods are geographically like Canada and the Alaskan trail.

Although the financial showing of the
village of Brattleboro cannot be foretoId
exactly at this distance in advance of the

receipts and expenses will break about

year than last

this week. when some sewer assessments
will be levied. and it is expected that
these will yield about enough to make up
what is needed to make the receipts equal
the expenses. Whether they do or not
the showing for the past year is excellent
The commissioners have not been Law
iSh in expenditures. but have incurred
expense where needed including about
$500 for two new ladders and 900 feet of
new hose for the fire department, and
500 for a cement walk in front of the
fire station on Elliot. street. They have
spent also about $500 for a sewer on
Southern avenue. which eventually will
be paid back in sewer assessments.
The town of Brattleboro sent the vii
lage Il bill for about 81 900 for oiling
streets. but the village commissioners
objected To paying 1T. on the ground that
some of the work was done on streets not
within the village limits. They finally
compromised on Sl.NuO. which was some
what more, than is paid ordinarily.
