It tells'the highly sen- sational story of 'a gang of Mexican the Rio Grande, until they bump up against the xas Rangers. The feature is presented by The Aywon photodramas. t P JACK LONDON TALE ON SILVER SCREEN Beginning Sunday next, ‘“The Mut- iny of the Elsinore,” the Metro pic- turization of the famous Jack London novel, with an all-star cast, will be the feature attraction at the Rex the- atre. This picture, which presents the famous London novel of the sea on the screen for the first time, is a special Metro production with an ?]I- star cast, and will be the leading attraction at the Rex theatre for two days. . . “The Mutiny of the Elsinore” is one of the late Jack London’s last ‘and most notable works. It is a strong tale of the sea, in which a crew of city gangsters attempt to take over the control of the ship from the oicers in charge; and in addition there is a charming love story, the thread of whic his crossed by the evil passion of Andreas Mellaire to pos- sess the beautiful daughter of Jason West, a half-owner of the “Elsinore.” Margaret West is in love with Dick Somers, the captain’s son, and she resents the attentions of Mellaire, whom she distrusts and fears; and Mellaire, to accomplish his purpose of possessing Margaret, incites the crew to mutiny. Firm, however, against the ma- chinations of Mellaire and his rascal- 1y henchmen stands John Pike, the Elsinore’s” first mate. Pike has long loved Margaret, too, but the realiza- tion of his age makes him certain that she belongs to a man younger than himself. And so, when thg mutiny starts, the iron hand of John Pike raises to quell it. The role of John Pike is yortrayed by Mitchell Lewis, and in his support are Helen Ferguson, Noah Beery, Casson Ferguson, William V. Mong, Sidney D’Albrook, Norval Mac- Gregor and J. P. Lockney. The pic- ture was directed by Edward Slo- man ,from the .scenario by Alber Shelby LeVino. Jackson Rose photo- graphed the production. “NOTHING BUT LIES” AT REX TODAY AND WEDNESDAY Coming to the Rex theatre to- day and Wednesday is Taylor Holmes again in onc of those howlingly 'un- ny stage comedies written for Wil- liam Collier and adapted for the screen use of Mr. Holmer. This third one—the first was “Nothing But the Truth” and the second “The Very Idea”—is entitled “Nothing But Lies;” and it was written by Aaron Hoffman. i The plot—for there is a most am- using one in this play—concerns th:e efforts of a young man to c¢.ier up a friends mistake, made at the insti- gation of a radical young woman whe 18 known to her friends and the po- lice as Riot Rosle. A she-Bolshevik is Rosie, of the indoor and harmiess type. but when a lurid pamphlet she has her friends write it sent to the papers in place of a big firm’s adver- using copy, something of a stir is created. And such a stir can be ex- plained by nothing but lies. Supporting Mr. Holmes is a note- worthy cast, including the beautiful Justine Johnstone, Jack McGowan, Ralph Dolmes, Gipsey O'Brien, John Junior and Ann Wallack, a grand- daughter of the famous romantic ac- tor, Lester Wallack, S. E. Taylor, for years production manager for D. W. Griftith, made the scenario for the photoplay, which was directed by Lawrence Windom and photographed by Jacob Babaracco. Metro is releas- ing this Taylor Holmes production. ! “BRIDE 13” EPOSODE THREE, AT REX TODAY AND WEDNESDAY Ruth Storrow, the thirteenth bride, has leaped from a window of her home on her wedding day, fur- jous because her father had locked her in her room while a female detec- tive took her place at the ceremony to protect her from the bride snatch- ers. She runs to the waterfront and clambers aboard a motor bhoat de- manding to be taken across the bay to the chapel where she it to be mar- ried to Winthrop, presumably a so- cfety idler, but really one of the pir- - ates. | Bob, who loves her, sees her run- ning across the lawn just as he hand- cuffs a. foreign“looking stranger to a tree on the grounds and he gives chase. Bob jumps into another boat and follows Ruth across the bay. Thru the periscope the Mahdi. leader of the submarine pirates sees Ruth and captures her. Bob sees her taken on the submarine and leaps on the deck. A pirate meets him and they battle as the boat submerges. A fishesman on shore, viewing the struggle, informs Winthrop and ,Lieut. Morgan, a navy aviator and ‘flance of the twelfth vanished bride. “They put out in a hoat and rescue Bob; who has vanquished the pirate. Lieut. Morgan hurries to inform the ‘Admiral of the U. S. Fleet of the pre- sefice of the submarine, and gets two seaplanes to give chase. Winthrop and Bob return to the Storrow home and Winthrop releases the stranger and takes him inside.

EARLE WILLIAMS AT THE ELKO TOMORROW The popular screen artist, Earle Williams, is to appear at the Elko theatre. Wednesday and Thursday in “The Usurper,” a modern comedy drama with scenes in the west and later in England. The photoplay is of a highly éntertaining class, pre- senting thrills, comedy and drama, with just enough mystery and love to make it enjoyable. HOBART BOSWORTH IN “HIS OWN LAW" A striking plot is developed in “His Own Law,” which ¢omes to the Grand theatre for two days, commencing Wednesday. J. C. MacNair, a caqnstruction en- gineer of repute, has an uncanny hab- it of stealing away from his associ- ates immediately upon the compl tion of an engineering , project, an burying himseif in a drunken stupor in the tenderjoin district.

INCE HAS DIFFICULTIES WITH “OUT OF, THE SNOWS” When Ralph Ince decided to play the leading role of Constable Bob Holliday in the new National Picture, “Out of the Snows,” which is show- ing at the Grand theatre for the last time tonight, was confronted with set. in the romantic period of the late eig:hties, after the Rebellion, and has to do with the great work of the mcunted police in restoring law and order to the restless and lawless ele- mants on the edges of civilization in Canada. the difficulty of obtaining a correct uniform for the part.
