VALENTINO AT PALACE.

Owing to popular request and de-
 mand the Palace management has de-
 cided to continue the run of Blood
 and Sand" Rodolph Valentino's won
 derful picture, for the rest of this
 week. This is being done due to the
 fact that the management has re-
 ceived q great many letters and tele-
 phone calls from people who are anx-
 ious to see this great production.
 great many of the calls are from out
 of-town people who would like to see
 1t and the management, in order to
 comply with the many requests, made
 arrangements this morning to keep 1t here all this week. Blood and
 Sand" is positively the biggest picture
 of the new season and Valentino has
 the best role that he has yet por- trayed. He is cast as Juan Gallar-
 do, Spanish toreador, and the idol of all Spain. There are scenes of actual bull fighting that thrill to the
 utmost, and scenes of love and pas sion that no one but Valentino is capable of portraying. The story is from the pen of Vincente Blasco Ibanez, the famous author of "The Four Horsemen," that famous photo- play that brought Valentino. the fame he has today, >and it is interesting to note that the role of the toreador just fits him to perfection. Sideburns and funny little pigtail braided in the long hair at the back of the head are the distinctive marks of a bull fighter, and with Valentino made up to this effect, he surely looks the part. The story deals with the life of a toreador who after winning fame in the arena, weds his childhood sweet heart and enjoys great prosperity. Dona Sol, the widow of diplomat, sees and admires the toreador in one of the holidays at the arena and marks him as her own. Swayed be- tween the love and devotion to his wife and the love of Dona Sol his entire career is ruined by the wiles of this wicked woman-and then the big climax which shows the sensa- tonal scenes in the arena that will thrill and amaze you and almost lift you out of your seat with excitement.
