for better weather and May sold
down to 1882, July 1888 and Octo-
ber19.T5, or 5 to 6 points below the
highs and unchanged to 3 points
down compared with the previous
close.
The market became quiet follow
ing early fluctuations with prices
within the early range, but near the

October dipping to sl9.74 and De-
cember to 1888, or one to two

KEN MAYNARD IS AT
 PALACE, CIRCUS MOVIE

"The Wagon Show" western picture with a circus background a story combining the thrills, TO- nance, daring stunts and trick rid ing of the two, is Ken Maynard's latest feature, which comes to the Palace tonight.
 This unusual departure from the regular western picture fulfills a long standing ambition of Maynard for he spent many years as premier stunt rider with Barnum and Bai- ley, Ringing Brothers circuses, and ever since he made his entry into pictures he has wanted to make one dealing with the circus and its people. 'The Wagon Show" is ths result, and so far has it. surpassed even Charles R. Rogers. the pro- ducer and First National expecta- tions, that it has been released as a Ken Maynard special.
 The story has not been taker from any novel or published story but was written expressly for May nard and depicts small one-rine circus travelling through Montana and Wyoming during the settlers days. It deals not only with tht romantic glamor that always ac- companies a tent show, but witt the struggles and trials these people of the sawdust trail endured. The entire plot has been packed witt the daring and thrilling stunts fol which Ken has become world-fa- nous. The entire story has beer built upon a solid foundation oi fact and carries real surprise ending.

 FEATURE AT COLISEUM STARK MAD" TALKIE

The mysterious jungle of Central America, breeding silent, forbidding, a tropical tangle of wild vegeta- ton, shrouded in dismal mist; an cerie region of unseen horrors, with destruction lurking in it's shadowy depths, ancient home of lost race, but now summed by whites.
 This is the setting for Stark Mad," the Warner Bros. latest talkie special production, at the Coliseum tonight.
 A man who ventured to penetrate into the most feared section of this vast region disappeared as if by magic, and his father, having organized a searching party of friends, drops anchor at the point where he landed on the wooded coast-though it is later found out that the boy has been killed.
 The adventures which follow are nothing if not hair-raising. After landing and forcing their way into the shadowy recesses of the strange swamp lands, they came upon the ancient ruins of a Mayan temple and night finds tn e m camped within it's crumbling walls, and their bloodhounds paying dismally at unseen terrors. A gigantic ape, which eventually is discovered, plays a gruesome part in the thrill ling adventures of the time though the tremors and qualms of the timid spinster, Miss Fleming, make the terrors ludicrous.
 Stark Mad" was directed by Lloyd Bacon, and includes in it's all-star cast H. B. Warner, Louise Fazenda, Jacqueline Logan, Henry B. Walthall, Lionel Belmore, Claude Gillingwater, Andre Beranger, John Milan, Warner Richmond and Floyd Shackelford.

George and also said that he was instrumental in allowing them to see what they considered one of the most inspir- ing and remarkable of sights. They were unanimous in their assertion that Alaska exceeds any other ter ritory or locality in the rugged, natural beauty of her scenery.
