Outlook on Pine Creek.

Upon his return from Pine creek
Mr.. Campbell was evidently more
than ever impressed with the favorable
outlook for that section and the in
creasing necessity for adequate trans
portation. He was especially i'm
pressed with the Constitution, which
will soon have its mill ready to begin
regular lead and zinc shipments The
company has a large proved tonnage.
He also commented on the Highland
Surprise, now operating under lease,
but which may soon complete arrange
ments for direct operations. Alto
gether Pine creek showed evidences of
mining activity quite in contrast with
the situation at the time of his former
visits. and the inspector expressed
himself in optimistic terms regarding
the future of that section.
Cedar Creek.
Mr.. Campbell also spent a busy day
on the North Side, and among other
properties visited was that of the
Cedar Creek Mining & Development
company He was surprised and
gratified at the showing of ore
exposed on the shaft level and ex-
pressed himself in most favorable
terms regarding the outlook for Cedar
Creek as a producing mine. This deep
development of the property in con-
nection with the ore exposures on
three tunnel levels gives assurance Of
ample tonnage for a mill, the con-
struction of which the company now
has under construction.
Moe Mining Company.
Mr.. Campbell also included IN MS
round of inspection the property OF
the Moe Mining company, situated on
the south side of the river a short
distance below the Morning mill. His
comments on his observations there
indicated that he was very much in
terested in the mineral showing on
the property, which he unhesitatingly
said justified financial support to
carry the enterprise to a conclusion
He fully understood that it was in

STRANDOFFERS
A STRONG
LINEUP

From the opening overture,
through the major picture at
traction through the short film
subjects, on through the vaude-
vile and finally the tuneful exit
march, every number and act
at the Strand this week is good.
Hugh Skelly and Emma Heit
in their Revue of 1924" in
which they are assisted by three
clever little dancers and singers,
namely, Misses Mildred Living
ston, Sally Goldie and Violet Con.
ners, are featured on this portion
of the program. Hugh Sicily,
who from his stage appearance
might be the twin brother OF
Andy Gump," kept the house
in a gale Of laughter, while the
girls scored hits with their songs
and dances. Mr.. Skelly's final
dance, in which he is interrupted
by every member Of the company,
who had appeared before In pre-
vious acts, literally stopped the
show.
The Billy Kirkwood Trio, in "A
Vaudeville Roundup" start the
bill at a speedy pace that never
let's up. Petite Lillian Morton,
the p0cket-editlt1on, comeotenne
and singer, follows, and on any
ordinary bill would be listed as
the headline attraction. Gates
and Finley, with their clever line
OF comedy and several delightful
songs, proved equally acceptable.
The Novelle Brothers, acro-nusi-
cal clowns, and an extra added
attraction to the bill, close with
an act the merits of which do
not have to be recommended to
Washingtonians.
A play fraught with much
meaning for the entire world
is presented In Legally Dead"

No one will deny that Merry
Go Round is a smashing good
picture and it seems a pity that
we have to take Director Rupert
Julian to task for not making
it perfect when the opportunity
was there. 1t is Julian's fault, we
suppose, that the picture trots,
gallops and fingers at the way
side for the first two-thirds and
then bursts into a mad pace for
a finish that is reckless in dis
posing of the obstacles that pre-
viously had barred a noble and
honest love-" This Is our only
criticism of as good picture as
the new season will probably see.
A more dependable cadence
would suit our fancy.
Merry Go Round" is love

festive carnival life of Vienna,
and its implausibility is justified
by the fact that it all happened
before the war;" the inference
being that the nobility had been

COLONIAL BEACH AND
STEAMER ST. JOHNS.

The question Of where to go to
spend the weekend was solved by
many who left Saturday afternoon
and yesterday morning on the
steamer st. Johns for Colonial
Beach, the city's most popular
river resort offering saltwater
bathing, fishing, grabbing and
boating. A ride down the historic
Potomac on the steamer st. Johns
knock the kinks out Of tired
nerves and restores pep and
: energy. Yesterday the bathing
was all that one could wish. The
saltwater and. absence Of danger
Gus currents makes bathing most
enjoyable at this point on the
Potomac. Other attractions such
as fishing, grabbing and boating
were enjoyed by many. The
steamer st. John will make the
forty-mile moonlight trip to Indian
Head and return today, leaving at
7:15. Music and free dancing on
board is a feature Of these delight
full moonlight rides.

Geo. Whites New Show
Makes Bow Tonight

Tonight at the Howard theater.
Seventh and T streets northwest,
George White, noted Scandals"
producer, will bare to a waiting
world his newest production,
Running Wild" an all-colored

Lyle, late stars Of Shuttle

acts and, ten scenes, and is
touted as having a great collec-
ton of blues singers, dancers and

browns.
"Running Wild" is really a
second edition Of Shuttle Along"
but owing to the fact that the
latter is still on tour, a differ

:. Merry Round > Z
Big Film, and Good

Shaving organ grinder before the
merry-go-round in the Prater,
an amusement park, and misfoT-
tune makes her a veritable foot
ball, until war reduces royalty
and materializes her dream.
Norman Kerry is a regular
story-book count. There isn't a
handsomer man on the screen
and for this particular type Of
Characterization, there isn't a
more talented one. George Sieg-
man, as the brutal concession
owner, draws the character
broadly. Good accounts are
given by George Hackathorne as
the hunchback and Caesarc
Gravina as the girls father.
The picture is filmed on a
gigantic scale and is lavishly en-
dowed with settings and people.
The war scenes are minute and
the more gripping for the broad
extent on which they are scaled.
The poignant touch dominates
throughout and fine emphasis is
lent several scenes, by framing
tragedy in charivari atmos-
phere; as for instance the col
lapse of the Punch and Judy
figures before puzzled audi
ence, as their manipulation fees
to his wife's death-bed. Also the
death of the clown before an
audience of weeping youngsters.
The theme accompaniment by
Director Wild's orchestra, is vi.
ennese, and we expect to hear
1t whistled and hummed quite
generally before the week is
over.
This picture is recommended
as entertainment for everyone,
young and old.

Pictures Of the old West are
rapidly becoming au fait on the
Washington screen, II you know
what we mean. A week or two
ago, Mr.. Crandail was showing
a film production Of 1.-The Girl of

a screen version OF Bret Harte's
"Salomy Jane" at Loew's Col

*SAL0MY JANE
IS SHOWN AT
COLUMBIA

The long and tiresome summer
season of program-pictures is eVl-
IDENTIFY fading. away before the on
coming features of fall. The ad-
vent of the new output is marked
this week at the Columbia by a
Paramount presentation of Bret
Harte's well-known short story,
sSalomy Jane" If this be pro-
Rram.feature, then it tops the
ranks: il it be the first of Para
mounts new starlesS super-pic-
lures, it can be said to carry great
promise for those to follow.
"Salemy Jane" is a good picture
entertaining, plotty and we'll
acted. OF course the story has
lot to do with its appeal; none OF
Harte's rip-snorting wild-western
word pictures of the days of '49
lacked action, thrills Of local col.
or, and "Salomy Jane" was typical
of the authors best. Hence the
resultant photoplay was starred
from its beginning to carry a great
deal Of interest.
However, despite its almost fool
proof plot and untamperable con-
tfnuity, it could have Jared far
worse in the hands Of an indiffer-
ent director. AS 1t il, George Mel
ford held the megaphone. and Incl
dentally succeeded in catching all
the elusive quality of the old west
that Hanged through the printed
pages Of Bret Harte.
Jacqueline Logan has the chief
part and does 1t well. She's q COM
err, is Jacqueline. Maurice Flynn,
the handsome, plays opposite. He's
manly enough to appeal to the
men, and good-looking enough to
make the ladies heave a gentle
sigh.
AS to the rest Of the cast, it's
all well-known and it's all above
the average.
Urban special on the life Of
Lincoln, "Snub" Pollard comedy,
and International newsreel fill up
the program.
