Wor his two constant and jn- separable campanions, Satanm, the flery black stallion, and Black Bart, the devil dog, two beautiful animala were especially trained on the Fox lot. r Exploits showing the during and skill of Mix, which are always a feat- ure of a Mix picture. are generously distributed thruout the story, which lends itself finely to situz of the sensational order. Emmett J. Flynn is given much credit for the vivid manner in which he visualized the story after its adap- tation to the screen by H. P. Keeler The supporting company are said to give an exceedingly good account of themselves in_roles of a very unusu- al'nature. In the cast are such well known screen performers as Pauline Starke, who plays opposite the siar, George Seigmann and P. M. MeCul- lough. . VIOLA DANA WINS IN PICTURE AT REX TODAY As Marcia Meadows, the heroine of “The Chorus ‘Girl’s Romanc2” and resistible shoulders ever se:n on or off the screen, .Viola Dan; roved 1o have founda most charm terization of her career. She was seen last evening at the Rex theutre and will be seen again tonight. The story, adapted from the fietion of F. Scott Fitzgerald an:d published originally as ¢ Shoulde in The Saturday Ev g do with an odd romance p2twean a chorus girl, whose show is trving out in New Haven, and Horace Tarbox. a prodigy in scholarship. It secms that gome of Horace's more worldly frieids persuaded Mareia to go to his college rooms and see what would happen. What did happen is rot what cither Marecia or Horace’s friends or even the audience imagined. The conse quent events from cne of the freshest and sprightliest and most human stories seen on the screen of the pic- ture theatre in many a day. Percy Heath is responsin.e for the deft scenario, William C. Dowlan for direction, John Arnold for the photo- graphy of the picture, and special art interiors of merit were designed . by A. E. Frau.erman. Chief in support with Miss Dana 1s Gareth Hughes as Horace, and oth- ers entrusted with important parts in the photoplay are: Phil Ainsworth, William Quinn, Jerre Sundin, Sidney DeGrey, Lawrence Grant, Tom Gal- lery, Edward Jobson, Martyn Best, Anna Shaefer, Dorothy Gordon, Wil- llam Mong. HAYAKAWA PLAYS AT . ELKO AGAIN TONIGHT Admirers of Sessue Hayakawa who desire to see him in his best picturc “Li Ting Lang,” the Robertson-Cole special with Doris Pawn and an all- star cagt supporting the noted star, may do so for the last time tonight, at the Elko theatre. The early scenes of the picture are set an' America where Li Ting Lang is familiarly known to his white col- lege chums a3 “Old Ting-a-Ling. Although of royal blood he is des- perately In love with a white girl, Marion Halstead, daughter of a wealthy banker, Whose hand is also sought. by one of Lang's college mates.. Thru a series of dramatic incidents Lang returns to China and the girl, believing him dead, marries her other suitor. Then the scenes and the charac- tere swing to China during the revo- lution. “Li Ting Lang" is now a gen- eral of the revolutionary forces, de- spite his royal birth. He is placed in the position of defending the girl against a gang of plotters and there is a tremendously realistic fight. The conclusicn i -one of the most unus- ual seen onithe screen, Doris Pawn, who appeared with Lew Cody in “The Beloved Cheater,” plays the part of Miss Halstead. Her beauty and the excellent finish of her ~ performance goes far toward making { “Li Ting Lang’ one of the best pic- tures in which Mr. Hayakawa has starred in some time. The others in the cast are equally efficient. G00D ROANS FILM AND TALK —GRAND THEATRE SATURDAY A five reel good roaas fiim will be shown at the Grand theatre Saturday afternoon at four o'clock. There will also be one of the best speakers present. that the Minnesota Highway Improvement association can secure. . ‘This film and talk will be given for the purpose of thoroughly ex- plaining and educating everyone on the various phases of Amendment No. 1 No admission will be charged to * the meeting. “MAROONED HEARTS” AT THE ELKO TONIGHT Conway Tearle, idol of the screen, has come into his inheritance in st: dom, and his first photoplay, “Ma- rooned Hearts,” produced as a Na- tional picture, is to be shown at the . Elko theatre for two days beginning -, tomorrow, Friday. Tearle for many seasons has been - seen in support of practically every feminine star of the silversheet. Now he is a star in his own right, and his first starring vehicle is said to be 'the sort of virile picture in which he appears at his best. ‘The story of a man, a woman and a human brute who are thrown to- gether on a tropical island by the . NEWS OF THE THEATRES Persons familiar with that un- the possessor of two of the most ir-f, fortunes of the sea. And the woman is the one member of her sex that the men hate cordially. Zena Keefe plays the leading fem- inine role in support of Conway Tearle, and a number of other cap- able players complete the cast. WORLD COAL SHORTAGE MENACE TO INDUSTRY Countries Other Than U. S. and , Britain Are Very Seriously in Need of Coal As a result of the coal shortage which menaces the ,world, only the VAUDEVILLE TOMORROW AT THE GRAND THEATER Joe Kenlow and Julie Lee will open the vaudeville program which is showing tomorrow (Friday) only at the Grand theatre, with their act which they call “Music anu Ever’- thing.” ~With a little bit o'Scotch bagpiping, accordian solos, etc., prab- aply their’ most attractive number will be the Xylophone duet, in which Mr. Kenlow uses two hammers in each hand. ‘Hazel Leona, is a singing comme- dienne, and in looking backward, it will be remembered that these single acts have always been of the best. Oliver and Lee are billed as “A Girl, a Boob and a Ukulele.” Mr. Oliver in his “rube” character has a lot of clever comedy, and is ably as- sisted by his partner, Miss Lee. Sev- eral musical numbers are included in their offering. Delaire and Madeline have some- thing new in the gymnastic line and Charles Ray in “Bill Henry” will be the picture program which preceds the vaudeville.

Of course truth, like murder, will out Jut even after he discov- ered. that she was a poor and he found out that he was a million- aire, they still loved cach other. Den’t miss the laughs that crowd “You Never Can Tell,” with beauti- ful Bebe Danield as the star and handsome Jack Mulhall playing oppo- site her. Coming to the Grand the- atre mext Saturday and Sunday. A Realart picture. ittty Arbuckle in “A Reckless Ttomeo” will be included in the program. SENATOR HARDING IN HEART OF SOLID SOUTH Chatanooga, Tenn., Oct. 13.—Sen- ator Harding arrived here in the heart of the solid south to battle for the cause of republicanism on ground that has in the past gone democratic in the national elections. Belief that opposition to the league of nations and the Wilson administration has made fertile the ground for the re- publican cause in Tennessee, promot- ed one of the most energetic cam-! paigns_in_many years. United States and Great Britain are assured of sufficinet fuel to operate their industries as capacity uuring the coming winter, according to Jo- seph .\. Broderick, vice president of the National Bank of Commerce in New York. In an article in the In- ternational Coal Trade in the October fscue of ‘Commerce Monthly, .the bank’s magazine, he points out that although eventually a balance will be reached between demand and :pro- duetion, ‘this cannot be hoped for in the near future. Neither shipments from new and remote fields nor the increased use of fuel oil and other substitutes will solve the problem for the present The article indicates that at the present rate of monthly receipts, not a single,importing country in Burope or South America is receiving a sup- ply whith is even approximately ade- quate. France is now recelving about two-thirds the’ rate 'which would be neccessary to assure opera- tion of French industries at capacity; Italian receipts are about three-fifths of ‘the estimated necessary amount; Netherlands is receiving only one- third the amount of coal required by its industgies, and Norway is receiv- ing approXimately one-half. The sit- uation is no ‘better in the case of the other chief European and South Am-: erican buyers in the international m “Only two countries of the world, the United States and the United Kingdom, today have rcasonable as- surance of sufficinet coal to operate their industries at capacity during the coming winter,” Mr. Broderick saye. “In order to attain this seur- ity a definite limit been placed upon the amount of British coal available for export, and in the United State: exports have heen auto- matically held in check by measures taljen to assure domestic supplies. The fuel problem is the foremost questicn of western Europe, excert the United Kingdom. 1t is also to the fore in a number of countries out- side Furope, chiefly those countries of South America which have hereto- fcre heen dependent on imported coal. “The international 'coal trade is entirely dominated by the United Kingdom, Germany and the Un‘ited States. Not only is the coal supply of importing countries now depend- ent upon mines of these three coun- tries but there is no prospect for years to come of important additions from other sources to the amount of coal available for the export mar- ket. The recent emphasis placed upon small shipments from new and rcmete coal fields has been entirely out of proportion to their entirely to the issue. A similar emphasis has also been placéd on the proposed use of substitutes. Regardless of what the more remote future may hold, the present fuel problem will not be solved by the substitution of fuel oil for coal. The production of electricity -from water-power neces- sitates elaborate installations. at a time when capital is costly and dif- ficult to sccure, and extensive wa- ter-power projects require years for completion. Wood and peat are but poor substitutes for coal, and for many uses lignite likewise is highly unsatisfactory.. ~ Modern industry has been built on coal, and it is de- pendent on, adequate supplies for its maintenance. “““The total shortage of coal in the international market is only a small part of the difference between actual pfii}duction and probable output had the war not occurred, but when nigasured in terms. of the effect on the countries which are suffering this shortage it is acute, and the only hope of mecting it lies in the produc- tive capacity ond the United King- dom; the United States and Germany. [“No comment can add emphasis to the facts. Britain exports for the year cannot exceed 25,000,000 tons with, an additional 13.500,000 tons for bunkerage of vessels in foreign trade. Exports from the United States much in excess of exports for previous years, that is, gross ex- ports of 25,000,000 tons, and 7,000, 000 tons for bunkerage, might re- sult in a corresponding shortage for American consumers.. Required Ggr- man coal deliveries are probably in excess of the surplus which Germany would have available for export if German industry were to operate without a handicap.: “The degree to which industry and the routine of ordinary daily life are disorganized id those countries is determined in part by the serious- ness of their coal shortage and in part by, the extent to whigh they are in- dustrialized. The north European ountries are the worst sufferers. Ul- mately a balance will 'be. attained between consumption and production, but it does not apepar that this can be hoped for in the immediate fu- ture. = The international coal short- age is'one of the most serious results of the wastefulness of war.” Subscriba for The Daily Pioneer. e BY QUICK RESULTS Everyone ig pleaded With the quick results of simple withhazel, cam- phor, hydrastis, -etc:;, as mixed in Lavoptik eye wash.
