. “CUSTARD’S LAST 'STAND" ALICE BRADY SUPERB IN FIERY ITALIAN ROLE Perhaps never in her entire screen career has Alice Brady’s. dark-eyed beauty had a more colorful setting than in her latest picture, “‘Littie Italy,” which opens at the Grand Theatre tonight. Certainly the ac- tress has never been given a role which. better suited her acting abili- ties. Her impersonation of Rosa, the intense young heroine of |‘Little Italy,” is a genuine masterpiece. “Little Ttaly” is an Italian colony near New York City. There, in the new-world atniosphere of thriving truck farms, the Italians keep alive many of their old-world customs and all of their old-world prejudices and feuds. Especialy the feuds. Rosa, only child of the widowed Marco Mascani, who is the wealthiest and most powerful Italian in the col- ony and leader of one faction, is the belle of the settlement. But like her famous country-woman, the i Juliet, she cares nothing for the suitors who are encouraged by her father, and loses her heart in one meeting with a fasctinating youth who turns out to be a member of a family prominent in the rival fac- tion. Norman Kerry, dark and handsome as ever, ‘enacts the role of Antonio Tumullo, and like Miss Brady, is a convincing Italian, intense, impul- sive, and fascinating. “IN OLD KENTUCKY” AT THE REX THEATRE TOMORROW Anita Stewart makes a startling leap on horseback over a broken bridge above a chasm, taking great risks, in a scene from the First Na- tional special feature, “In Old Ken- tucky,” in which she stars. This great American classic will be shown at the Rex Theatre on Tomorrow. The bridge is a draw over a ravine more than 100 feet deep. But the draw has been wrecked. In the story it is necessary for Miss Stewart to leap over this broken draw to reach a man who is lying unconscious in the road far beneath her, where the villain has placed a dynamite bomb beneath him. The horse, upon which mo untef,tad mounted, at first refuses to make the jump, but she starts again, and spur- ring it to the utmost speed, rides rtraight for the broken bridge. The horse rises to her spur and makes the jump. But it reaches the oppos- ite side by such a narrow margin that she is THE BEMiiJ1 DAILY PIONEER then nearly every “fan” has viewed it as produced by various companies. Like “Uncle Tom’s Cabin,” it has be- come so familiar that its appearance is regarded as a joke. The latest farce photoplay ridiculing the famous General’s historic battle is entitled “Custard’s Last Stand,” which is described as exceedingly funny, and will appear at the Elko Theatre tonight, also Wednesday matinee and evening. PATHE NEWS ADDED IS ATTRACTION AT THE GRAND Pathe Weekly News, which is to be regularly shown on Tuesdays and Wednesday at the Grand Theatre to- gether with a Snub Pollard comedy’ entitled “Your're Next” will be the added attractions at that theatre tonight and Wednesday. o “Indophen Blie” a New Shade. “Indophen blue” is the name of the novelty over which the dye men are puffing out their chests like pouter German rivals in resourcefulness.” In the present instance they have gone beyond, for try as they have the Ger- mans have not obtained a blue of this type possessing all the desired prop- erties. The color is brighter and slightly more violet than indigo and closely re- sembles brome-indigo. Its great re- sistance to light, surpassing that of indigo itself, is a property that de- lights the dyer, while it equals Indigo in a number of other customary tests, including that of boiling. This discovery will be greeted with applause by textile manufacturers. Jud Living in Hopes: ward to something original and novel in a parade whose importance won't be estimated by the number of hours it takes to pass a glven point. Chinese Condemns Bribe. There is o famous oriental saying condemning bribery. It is said that an ancient Chinese sage who lived in the Second century was offered @ bribe. His silence being accepted as hesitation, he was assured that he was perfectly safe, as no one knew it, He replied: “Heaven knows it. Earth knows it. You know it. I know fit. How can you say that no one knows broken bits of the bridge are kicked from beneath its feet into the chasm beneath. Miss Stewart admits that she was ‘teribly frightened, but had every! confidence in the horse, as it had made greater leaps than the , one taken in the picture, though never such a dangerous one. | This thrilling scene is clearly! shown' in this picture, which is the | story of an untutored girl, who after risking her life for her friends in the mountains, goes to the city where she wins laurels for herself. “A PRIVATE SCANDAL” AT | ELKO THEATRE TONIGHT | | Realart specializes in youthful stars of the gentler sex—pretty girls who fascinate by their freshness and joy at being alive. May Me- Avoy, recently seen here as “heroine in “Sentinmental Tommy,” is quite as pretty as the other Realart head- liners, and is able to strike a deeper note_in her acting than any of her sister stars. This quality stands her in good stead in her first starring part. As Jeanne Millette in “A Pri- vate Scandal,” at the Elko theater tonight. Also Wednesday matinee and evening. She takes the part of a Belgian orphan who sacrifices her good name that she may protect the American woman who adopts her there is never a moment when she is not easily the mistrees of the situa- tion. Jeanne is all loyalty and de- votion, her sweetness is imborn and she has the clear eyed innocence of | a child. Miss McAvoy indicates these attributes with absolute conviction, and shqws plainly that her method of acting is particurlaly well adapted to the screen Kathyn, Williams, Ralph Lewis, Bruce Gordon and Lloyd Whitlock, were also chosen to play in the piece.

Tyrian purple, the most famous dye of antiquity, was so expensive that in the reign of Diocletian one pound of purple wool cost $240, which would make the dye itself worth about $5,000 a pound. In 1909 Professor Friedlan- der gathered 12,000 of the sea snalls from which this ancient dye was made, and prepared a litfle of the coloring matter, His investigations showed it to be ldentical with a dye khown to synthetic chemists, but not used on pigeons and declaring that “American |y, chemists are fully the equals of their |2 Jud Tunkins says he's lookin’ for- | account of its inferiority to other synthetic dyes which are both cheap snd common at the present day.
