1.-THE HOME STRETCH"
REAL COMEDY DRAMA
Many Thrilling Situations and Laughs
In Douglas Mac Leans
PhOtOplay.

Comedies possessing genuine Gle
ments of gripping tingling drama and
Of delicate sentiment without sacrifice
ing laughpower are infrequent enough
to cause Douglas MacLean's latest
Paramount picture, THE Home
Stretch" which is at the Washington
Theater Monday night to stand forth
as one of the most original and enter
tanning offerings of the year.
The story concerns a jockey, n
trainer, racetrack follower, who at
the time the picture opens, has risen
to the ranks of racehorse owners, and
of the difficulties he encounters when
he attempts to abandon his gambling
habits. Not only is Mr.. MacLean af-
forded ample opportunity to "get
over" sparkling comedy situations.
but to display his dramatic ability and
his skill with "thrillers" as we'll.
The opening scenes OF the story,
laid on famous California race track,
are notable for tensely dramatic stu
atoms, and thrilling accident, in
which Mr.. MacLean plays a prominent
part. Throughout the remainder OF
the picture, clever comedy and dram
attic suspense are delightfully."- blended
and carried through to an unusual
ending.
As john Hardwick, the juvenile
turfman, Mr.. MacLean Is said to give
performance which surpasses his
Sergeant Grey" in ''Twenty-three and
Half Hours Leave" His vigorous
personality and clever comedy "busi-
ness" are the outstanding features of
the production. Beatrice Burnham,
Margaret Warren, winsome small
town" girl, heads an excellent sup
porting cast which included Margaret
Livingston, Wade Boetler, Charles
Males and Molly Mcconnell. "The
Home Stretch" was adapted to the
screen by Louis Stevens from the
original story by Charles Belmont
Davis.

Over 100 Injured
in Gas Explosion
Entire Neighborhood Terror
lied by Blast and Collapse
of Huge Container.

Chicago, July 3l.-More than a
hundred persons were injured and an
entire neighborhood terrorized by the
explosion of more than 100000 feet
of gas and the collapse of its con-
tainer. The loss was estimated at
$4,000.
The terrific blast, accompanied by
a towering colump of fame, came
without warning and spread desola-
ton and fear through district COW
ering about six blocks and peopled
mostly by foreign laborers.
A group of boys playing baseball
in a vacant lot more than 100 yards
from the gas plant had their eye
brows burned off and their hair
s:nged and suffered burns on their
faces. The millions of feet of gas,
ignited from some mysterious cause,
which engineers have been unable to
explain, lifted the top off the huge
circular tank.
After the explosion, which was
heard for miles, flames shot up to a
great height and. as they subsidized,
the huge tank, 153 feet high and 100
feet in diameter, buckled in and COL
lapsed-a mass of glowing and
twisted iron.

Pacific case IN which the court re-
Gently handed down an opinion fore
ing the company 10 divorce itself of
ownership and control OF the Central
Pacific railroad.
The company in It's petition
grouped the grounds advanced for
the rehearing under FIVE heads and
among other things urged an appli-
cation OF the Sherman act in the
light OF the rule OF reason" insisting
that under the laws OF California
there was authority for the lease
made by the Central Pacific in 1855.
which, IL valid, construed the South
ern Pacific proprietor OF the Central
Pacific for 80 years. The petition
asserted that il was not the in,en-
ton OF the Sherman act TO "subvert
titles vested before its passage" and
that congress in considering the re-
funding OF the Central Pacific debt
always looked "for a guaranty OF its
payment by the Southern Pacific"
No action will be taken upon the
petition until the court meets for
its next term in October.
