GREAT SHOW AT LYCEUM

The Lyceum's bill is a dandy one, offering two Of screendom's most popular stars-Monte Blue and Rod LaRoque-in two high class dramas, The Man Upstairs" and Bachelor Brides" respectively. The adven- ture serial, The Amazing Advcn- lures Of Magic" also is listed. while for the last half, in addition 10 a feature drama, Clem Lewis min strels in Fifty Years from Now will be presented each evening.
 Elinor Fair supports LaRoque in Bachelor Brides" which is a rather unique picture presenting the star who is very nervous about the ap- preaching ceremonies and who fig ures in a series Of thrilling events.
 "The Man Upstairs" is real good murder mystery with romance underlying it all. A romantic young man. corresponding with a girl he does not know. seeks to make q hit by representing himself as q heroic figure. A murder in the apartment above him gives him a thought and he writes to the girl Of the murder in such way that he becomes sus- pected and finally is arrested. Of course the girl comes to his rescue but it all develops into most amaz- ing confusion. As romance this 8 a good picture and it is really good as a detective story.

ipraise for this master character
 actor. It is truly the best offering i that Lon Chaney has ever given to the screen. There are thrilling scenes galore, scenes that keep one tense and keyed up to excitement Their effect is powerful indeed. And yet there are other scenes in Ont side the Law" with not an element Iof thrill in them, they have a quiet pull that make them tremendously Icompelling. Lon Clancy plays the role of An Wing. a Chinese charac- ter and his portrayal in this part is i the highest point in character make iup. Clancy also plays the leading roles as Black Mike, cruel relent- Jess fascinating character Of the un- derworld. Black Mike spurned by the girl he loves manages to rail- road her father to jail and then at- Itempts to do the same with the girl. But the girl fights back and Chaney
 as Black Mike shows the cruel Hangs which made inc Phantom of the Opera" such a tremendous sue cess. Despite his cruelty and relent- less persecution Of the girl, Clancy succeeds in bringing his audience to
 an understanding Of sympathy.
