1.-THE DEVIL HORSE" AT LYCEUM

Hal Roachs latest production, The Devil Horse" featuring Rex, equine star of the movies, concludes it's showing at the Lyceum this eve ming as does the Warner Brothers feature, "Compromise," starring Irene Rich, Pauline Garon, Give Brook and Louise Fazenda.
 In "The Deviu Horse," Rex has a truly heroic role. First as a colt, abused by Indians. the horse forms a dislike for all redskins so that in later years he becomes a killer of Indians. Then come the frontier Indian raids and in the rescue of a beseiged outpost Rex plays his most heroic roles. Spectacular Indian tribal dances. brilliant cavalry dashes by L. s. troopers and some thrilling hand-to- hand encounters feature.
 The news reel also is especially interesting since it shows what were the last pictures taken in life of the late Rudolph Valentino.
 The Lynceum announces that on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of next week Black Phantom," an- other of the noted movie canine stars now on his way to Hollywood, will be an added attraction. With his owner, this dog will be on the stage at each show and will be put through a series of difficult stunts and the audience will be enabled to take part in this to some extent.

1.-THE ONLY THINGo

Elinor Glyn's worthy success to Three Weeks" which enjoyed such tremendous popularity. has achiev- cd greater acclaim than it's fore runner. The Only Thing" which closes today at the New Palace is said to be one of the finest screen productions of the year. "The Only Thing contains everything that a production requires. There is love, action, thrills as only Elinor Glyn knows how to combine them espe- cially with love. Eleanor Board man and Conrad Nagel are the feat ured players in this picture.
 There Is complete change of program for Thursday. The feat ure picture is ane Grey's latest con tribution to the screen, "Desert Gold" Zane Grey never seems to run out of ideas. Each picture bearing his name is always a bit better than the one which preceded it. All this sounds like mighty high praise for his latest western Desert Golu." But that's what it's intend ed to be. Desert Gold" is a fine film.
 There are also five acts of select vaudeville on the program and a very entertaining bill ij offered. Announcement has been made of the booking of Rudolph Valentino's s latest production that will live for ever in screen history. The Son of the Sheik" for four days starting Sunday. Sept. 5.

MEXICAN PRINCE PRINCIPAL IN DUEL
Pisnatelli FOrgoeS Chance to
 Shoot Man Who Challenged

Mexico City, Sept. l, P)-The Cor tez stock is still fighting stock. On the very ground where the great Spanish may have battled four cen- turies ago in ending the rule of Emperor" Montezuma, Prince Val eric Pignatelli of Italy, lneal des- cendant of Hernando Cortez, engag- ed in a bloodless duel with Eduardo Mede, and English descended scion of one of Mexico's wealthy and so- cially prominent families.
 Mede challenged Pignateni. alleg- ing that the descendant of Cortez had been unduly attentive to his wife, Pignatelli denied the allega- ton to Mede's seconds, but neverthe- less accepted combat, saying a gentleman of honor could do no less.
 The prince, who is declared to be an excellent shot, named pistols as the weapons, and on shot ten paces by each man. The duelists repaired to spot just across the federal dis trict boundary in the state of More los for the purpose of avoiding the capital police.
 Mede, who also is reputed to be a good shot, fired and missed. With a calm smile Pignatelli slowly raised his pistol and fired into the air, bowed low with exaggerated courte- sy to his adversary and walked away.
 Tt was gesture worthy of Cor tez himself,' declared one of the sec onds.
 It was decided by the seconds that the honor of both parties had been satisfied but there was no recon ciliation.

tells her own story. She pours forth the secrets of her soul. It is a story of human lives twisted by human passions.
 The Hall Mills murder has mys- tified the agencies of the law for four years. It is the greatest of all American murder mysteries. Now, for the first time, the true background of the crime is reveal ed. by the daughter of the mur- dered woman. Against this back ground painted by a cruel fate move the strange figures of the principals in the Hall-Mills mur- der.
 Could Charlotte Mills have pre- vented the murder of her mother?
 That is only one of the startling problems which this sorrowful girl writes about in this absorbing hu- man document.
 Please dear God. make mother happy and give her some joy in life" the small Charlotte used to pray.

Her Baby Days

l am Charlotte Mills.
 Sometimes I think just that
 name alone stands for about all
 the grief and misery a girl of 20 can know.
 And yet, except when I am alone, manage somehow to go along, and do things, and talk to people, and even smile and enjoy little pleasures like going to d theater with my girl friend. The hard | hours come when I am alone in my room with the leaky roof in the house on Carman street, the ugly little house where we lived so long - my mother and father, my brother Dan and I. and where ] last saw my mother that night four years ago when she went out and said, Wait for me, Kid, till I come | back I cry till l am sick some | times, wondering if l could have kept anything from happening if had waited. because she did not come back to get her scarf and went out again and l never saw | her again.
 l am writing this with the feel ing that although I don't know | how to express myself or really write as you might call it writing, perhaps l can set down some little things out of my life and my moth- (er's life that will put her in a true light to people who didn't know her as I knew her.
 From a baby. I simply adored my mother. Almost the first thing I can remember at all must have been when was three and a half and my mother had me by the hand, looking for rooms.
 Wo moved in April I was then four years old. Just 16 years ago. Mother told me many years later that even at that time she was discouraged and felt tied down and hemmed in and her marriage had been a terrible blunder.
 The whole trouble was that my mother had an education and req lized that people were put on this earth for better things not just mere existence. She had a different kind of mentality than my father. She had ambition and ideals and dreams. She loved to work and learn things. If she ever came across a word in reading, or when anybody was talking. that she didn't know the meaning of, she would never rest till she had dug 1t out.
