The story was creat- ed by Mr. Moomaw with the screen adaptation by Miss Elizabeth Ma- honey. “LI TING LANG” AT THE ELKO TOMORROW | worth, William Quinn, Jerre Sundin, next to the heir|Sidney A Chinese prince, in succession to the throne of the :Celestial Empire, is reported to have committed suicide as the climax to an_unfortunate love affair, and then follows several reels of rapid action in which the supposedly dead prince and a beautiful American girl are the principal participants in “Li Ting Lang,” Sessue Hayakawa’s latest pic- ture which will be screened at the Elko theater tomorrow and Thurs- | day. ‘The photoplay, a Robertson- Cole special, is one of the best Hayakawa vehicles shown in a long time. 77f REX THEATRE—TODAY : HOPE HAMPTON WINS # .. .PRAISE OF KOSLOFF One of the many interesting epi- sodes in “A Modern Salome,” in which Hope Hampton makes her screen debut, and which is distribut- ed thru Metro, app the Rex theatre for two days beginning to- day, represents the court of King Herod of ancient time: It is the in- cident where the notorious Salome does her famous Dance of Enchant- ment, at the end of which the mon- arch offérs her whatever she desires as a gift—and she asks for the head of John the Baptist. This story, narrated in the scrip- tures, inspired the dramatic poem of “Salomg” by -Oscar . Wilde and the opera Py Richard Strus. Recoll tions Of the way this famous da has been’ performed by various ar- tistes is’ woven into the plot of the picture thru a hallucination suffered by the herojne, in the famous Sa- \ 16me of old. It is in this incident that she performs the Dance of En- ticement. Theodorve Kosloff, the famous Rus- slan ballet-dancer, whose work has been secn op the stage und on the sereen, was in charge of the ballet which supported tae star in this dance, and in fact staged this entire episode. When rehearsing the bal- let, Kosloff commenced to instruct Miss Hampton in the steps she should do for the number, but was so struck by her natural grace that he asked her to go thru the dance she con- ceived it without any suggestion from hin. . Miss Hampton ran thru a series of steps and movements, and Kosloff im- mediately decided that she nceded no further instruction from him, but as- sembled his supporting ballet and told Director Leonce Pettet to “shoot” the scene, since the star was all ready for it. Bearing in mind the fact ti.at Hope Hampton has never had any terpsi- chorean training, and that she has never even seen anybody else per- form this dancé, ‘the fact that the young-star,won such high praise from an artist like Kogloft is regarded as worthy of note. REX THEATBRE—TODAY: < MADE PRISONER IN BRIDAL GOWN Suppose yoy, a woman, were to be married to the man of your choice, were already ,arrayed in your wed- ding gown and were adjusting your veil, when your own father sneaked up to the door, locked you in, and de- parted from the house. Wouldn't that make you slightly peevish? You can imagine Ruth Slorrow's indignation when, after her father had played guch a trick on her, she found on @uard below her window her formér sweetheart, the man whem ghe had jilted for another. That is the. situation which con- fronted Ruth Storrow in the sccond episode of **Bride 13", which will be shown -at the Rex theatre beginning Today and Tuesday. i Ruth Storrow's real name is Mar- &guerite Cliyton, and si the beau- tiful blonde heroine of William Fox's serial. - Ruth is facing a difficult sit- uation. Just before her sister Flean or’s marriage eleven wealthy brid had been stolen and held for ransom. Storrow wants Eleanor to put off her marriage, but Ruth urges her to go ahead and defy the criminal band that threaten American womanhood. Bleanor follows Ruth's advice and then she is driven off a wharf in her limousine and disappears into the bay. One: might think that would dis- suade Ruth, but it does not. and she determines to follow the advice she gave her sister and go to the altar regardless of the threats of the un- seen forces. Then her father balks her in her purpose, and Bob, her former sweet-~ heart, aids him. Still Ruth is not checkmated. She looks out of the window and notices that Bob's atten- tion has been distracted. She raises the sash, climbs upon the sill and then—well, is isn't fair to ‘spoil the climax for you. 4 REX WEDNESDAY . VIOLA DANA WITT SHIMMY IN STORY i " Never 'has Viola Dana had a part “affording her greater opportunity to is directed by [manner . ”The second chance Miss Dana is to sshimmy. As the leading in a musical comedy first- in New Haven, the little woman to cause her It, Bert|shoulders to be agitated in that pe- culiarly modern and provocative hich.has been labelled the shimmy. And those who have had advance views of Viola’s most recent picture say she does. Chief in support of Miss Dana is Gareth Hughes, as ‘Horace Tarbox, the scholarly prodigy of Yale and other half of the romance. Others prominent in the case are Phil Ains- DeGrey, Lawrence Grant, Tom Gallery, Edwin Jogson, Martyn Best, Anna Shaefer, Dorothy Gordon and William Mong. Percy Heath wrote the scenario; direction was by Wil- liam C. Dowlan, photography by John Arnold; and special art interiors by A. E. Freuderman. “THE FALL OF BABYLON,” AT THE GRAND TONIGHT D. W. Griffith’s latest and by far one of his most notable motion pic- ture masterpieces, “The Fall of Babylon,” was presented yesterday at the Grand theatre, and will be shown again for the last time tonight. It would seem that in this colossal production Mr. Griffith, the wizard of the drama, had broken even his own record. Undoubtedly “The Fall|" of Babylon” is one of the greatest spectacles this master of picture mak- |/ v To compare it tof- ing has turned out. anything that has gone before would be like comparing a mountain stream | to Niagara, so prodigious and majes- tic is this triumph of the man who first caused a sensation with his “Hearts of the World” and “The Birth of a Nation.” *To say that he has pqualled these two former spec- taclds is but putting it mildly, for “The Fall of Babylon” actually seems to surpass Mr. Griffith’s carlier ef- forts in the gorgeousness, splendor. - |luxury and bizarre life of the ancients which he brings out with all the color and grandeur of a day gone by. The tale is of the far-gone day of Babylon, 539 B. C., but through the powerful fury of barbaric warfare, the bewildering superstitution and political intrigue, runs a brilliant thread of story, made up of the love and romance, of the hate and passion of human nature as we knowit and understand it today.. It is the love story of all time, brought out by Mr. Griffith as the love of a little mountain girl for Prince Belshazzar, and of Belshazzar’s love for his Prin- cess Beloved. ENGLISH WOMEN NOW INTERESTED IN RACING London. (By Mail).—English wo- men have quit gambling on love, to put their hopes on the gee-gees. As- tounding numbers of women have placed large bets with commission agents during the 1920 racing season and these bets come from extraordin- ary sources. A well known bookmak- er told the United Press that most of the large bets placed with him by women have heen from those residing in quiet country villages: “1 think they are seeking some kind of excitement to 1 n the tedium of country life” he s: ‘Many of them have taken it up oniy recently. They don’t profess to know anything sbout horses—form, pedigree, jockeys and all these things which the male gam- bler studies so assidpously mean less thin nothing to women. “Usually a women choosos a horse beeause of its name, and a woman will ctake her all on a *‘coincidence tip.” He pointed cut that, with usual feminine perversity, his women eli- ents never put their money on the favorite X to hear which horse has the best chance of winnning a race; they prefer taking risks with large odds.. One woman client came to him with a large sum of money to put on a horse called “Golden Guinea” explaining, *“That is the name of a favorite wine of mine, and besides, it sounds like a money-maker!” WIDOWS MARRY AND LOSE THEIR PENSIONS Londen (by mail).—According to repgrts, the most popular song with the Chancellor of the Exchequer just now is “Widows are Wonderful!” As a general rule, the marriage rate possesses very little direct in- terest for a Chancellor of the Ex- chequer, but Austen Chamberlain re- gards with special benignance the rapid remarriage of soldiers’ widows. Already about 85,000 widows’ pen- sions have been withdrawn on ac- 4count of remarriage, and the process continues at the month. Many. declare that the popularity of widows in the marriage market is due to the housing shortage. Most widows have homes of their own, and well, the inference is obvious. ST. PAUL ORGANIZATIONS COMBINE FOR BIG DRIVE St. Paul, Oct. 12.—St. Panl char- itable and benevolent organizations today combined in a big drive for funds for the Community chest. Forty organizations have combin- ed to make the drive furnish funds for all—so that individual solicita- tions will be unnecessary. The Com- munity Chest needs §600,000, accord- ing to Dan E.
