THEATER LAST TIMES TONIGHT Priscilla_ Dean will be seen here in “Wild Honey,” a Universal pic- ture adapted from Cynthia Stock- ley’s: popular novel of that name, It is said to be the most thrilling melo- drama Miss Dean has ever made for the screen. Those who remember her in “Qutside .the Law,” “Reputation” and “Conflict” realize that “Wild Honey” has to be considerable if a ‘thriller” to outdo her previous photo- dramas. It will be shown at the Elko Theater for the last times tonight. The ' biggest thrill in: “Wiid Honey” is based on the destructive flood and a series’ of brilliant rescues. There are many other thrills in “Wild Honey,”including thrills of plot and situation. Miss Dean is to do some of the best emotional act* ing of her entire screen career in the sequence of scenes. “Wild Honey” was directed by Wesley Ruggles. Robert Ellis plays opposite the star, and the well known screen villians, Wallace and Noah Béery both take heavy roles in this picture. “AT THE END OF THE WORLD” AT GRAND THEATER TONIGHT One of the strongest casts ever as- sembled on the screen will be seen in “At the End of the World,” the pic- ture which marks Betty Compson’s first appearance as a paramount star and which comes to the Grand theater again tonight. Among those selected to support Miss - Compson;, are - Mitchell Lewis, Milton Sills and Casson Ferguson. The firstnamed spent six years in the United States Navy before taking up a stage careey during which-he play- ed with ‘William Faversham, Nazimo- va and others. Milton Sills‘ recent work in Paramount Productions “Be- hold My Wife,” "The Faith Healer” and “The Great Moment” have in- creased his popuiarity. Casson Fergu- son has played in many recent para- mount pictures, excelling in juvenile types. Although he is best known for his screen art, Mr. Ferguson spent a number of years in musical comedy and. concert work before he turned to the silver sheet. “DREAM STREET” AT THE REX THEATER AGAIN TONIGHT “Dream Street” is tne Jatest screen effort to come from D.

That was the opinion of both Bebe Daniels and her director, after James Gordon had finished the part of Miss Daniel’s fos- ter-father in “Nancy From Nowhere.” So Mr. Gordon only had time to sleep late a few mornings and go to a ball game or two' before beginning work as Miss Daniel’s father in “A’ Game Chicken,” a Realart Pictures attrac- tion which will be the feature at the Elko Theater next Tuesday and Wed- nesday. i One time he was foster-father, and the next time her real father, but in both cases he was only a " reel” par- ent—well, figure it out for yourse}f! Pat O’Malley is leading man in Miss Daniels’ new production released by Famous Players-Lasky Corporation. POLA NEGRI AT GRAND TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY If one likes_thrills in motion pic- tures, one will find them aplenty in Pola Negri’s new Paramount pic- ture, “The Red Peacock,” which will be the feature at the Grand theater for Tuesday and Wednesday. It is id that there are more dramatic tuations in this photoplay than_ in any other in which this famous Eu- ropean star has appeared since “Pas- sion.” Miss Negri is essentially an emo- tional actress as well as a dramatic artist. The story of “The Red Pea- ~ock,” in which she is first seen as a flower girl, then as a fash}onable woman who leads a stormy existence, offers her many, onportunities for the display of her varied talents as a star. She is admirably supported by a pick- ed company of piayers. The scenes are said to he massive and beautiful. S S miners’ strike is prolonged, it was announced today at mine headquar- ters here.

LONDON PRODUCERS T® GET ALONG WITHOUT : CRITICS London, Apriti10. (United Press)== 5 ed Charles B. Cochrang London's est producer of revies, has' to give critics the ‘“gate.” No more “oakleys,” he says, for inconsider- ate, abusing gentlemen of the press, who enjoy free seats at opening nights and then pronounce as terri- ble, a show that runs on for months or maybe years. The decision was made when Cochran took exception to the criticisms made about his lat- est revue. “Mayfair and Mantmarte,” in which he is starring Alice Delysia just returned from her tour ¢f the (Continued: from last issue) Alan, as he listened, ceased con- sclously to separate. the priest’s voice from the sensations runmning through him. His father was Stafford, dying at Corvet's feet while Corvet watched the death of the crew of the Miwaka; Alan himself, a child, was floating with a lifebelt among those struggling in the water whom Spearman and Corvet were watching die. Memory; was it that which now had come to him? - No; rather it was a realization of all the truths which the priest’s - words were bringing together and arranging right- 1y for him. . Alan’s father died in the morning. All day they stayed out in. the storm, avoiding -vessels, They . dared not throw Stafford’s body overboard or that of the engineer, because, if found, the bullet holes would have aroused inquiry. When night came aguin, they had taken the two ashore at some wild} spot qind buried them; to make !denti- fication harder, they had taken the things that they had with them and buried them " somewhere else. The ¢hild—Alan—Corvet had smuggled ashore and sent away; he had told Spearman later that the child had and Fdwin Balmer The wonian who had come to the door. was willing to show them through the house; it had only five rooms. One of those upon the: second floor was so much ‘larger ang pleasanter than the rest that they became quite sure that’ it' was the one in which Alan had been born, and where his young [ mother soon afterward had died. The woman, who had showed -them about, had-gone to another room and left them alone. “There seems to have been no pic- ture of her and nothing of hers left here that any ote can tell me about; but,” Alan’ choked; “It's- good to:be able to think of her as I can now. “I mean—no one can say anything against her now !” Alan drew nearer her, trembling. “I can never thank you—I can never tell you what you did for me, heliev- died. “Peace—rest!” Father Perron said in'a deep voice. “Peace to the dead!” But for the living there had been no peace. Spearman-had forced Cor- vet 'to make him his partner; Corvet had tried to take up his life again, but had not been able. His wife] aware that something was wrong with him, had learned enough so that’she had left him. Luke had come and come and come agaln for blackmail, and Corvet had paid him. Corvet grew rich; those connected with: him pros- pered; but with Corvet lived' always the ghosts of these he had watched die with ‘the Miwaka—of those who would have prospered with Stafford ex- cept for what had. been done. Cor- vet had secretly sought and followed the fate of the kin of . those.people who had been murdered to Lenefit *him; he found some of their families destroyed; he found almost all poor and struggling. And though Corvet paid Luke to keep the crime from dis- closure, yet Corvet swore to himself to confess it all'and make such resti- tution as he could. But each time that the day he had appointed with bimy self arrived, he put it off and off ahj pald Luke aguin and again. -Spear- man knew of his intention and some- times kept him from }it. But Corvet had made one close fziend; and when that friend’s dauglhter, for whom Cor- vet cared now most o(‘ull in the-world, had been about to mmarry Spearman, Corvet defled the cost to himself, and he gained strength to oppose Spear- man. So he had written to Stafford’s son to come; he had prepared for con- fession and restitution: but, after he had done~this and while he waited, something had seemed‘ to break in his brain; too long preyed upon by terrible memories, and’ the ghosts of those who had gone, and by the echo of their voices crying to him from the water, Corvet had wandered away; he had come back, under the name of one of those whom he had wronged, to the lake life from which he had sprung.. Only now: and then, for a few hours, he had‘intervals when he réemembered all; in one of these he had dug up the watch and the ring and other things which he had taken from Captain Stafford’s pockets and written to himself directions of what to do with them, when his mind again failed. And for Spearman, strong against all that assalled Corvet, there had been always the terror of the Indian Drum —the Drum. which had beat short for the - Miwaka, the Drum which had known that one was saved! That story came from some hint which Luke had spread, Corvet thought; but Spear- man, born mear by the Drum, believed that the Drum had known and that the Drum_had tried to tell; all through the years Spearman had dreaded.the Drum which had tried to betray him. TSo it was;by the Drum that, in the end, Spearmhn was broken. The priest’s voice had stopped, as Alan /slowly ‘renlized; he heard Sher- rill's “volce “speaking to him. “It. was a trust that he left you, Alan; I thought it must be that— a trist for those who suffered by the loss:of your father's ship. I don't know yet how it can be fulfilled; and W8 must think of that.” #That’s thow I understand it,” Alan said, / Through: the tumult in his soul he became aware of physical feelings again, and of Sherrill’s hand put upon ! his shoulder in a cordial, friendiy| gragp. Then another hand, small and firm, touched his, and he felt its warm tightening grasp upon his fingers; he lonked up, and his eyes filled and hers, he: saw, were brimming too. They walked together, later in the day, up the hill to the small, white house_which had been Caleb Stafford’s. i | have a night marriage bureau if in- “Constance!” ’Let.Hir ‘Hold, Her. things looked. - And: then, coming up here .as you'did—for me!”" .’ “Yes, it was for you, Alan!” “Constance!” - He caught-her. let him hold her. The woman was returning to them now and, perhaps, it was as well; for not-yet, heé knew, could he ask her all that he wished; what had hap- pened was too recent yet for that. But to hiin, Spearman—half mad and flee- ing from the haunts of men—was be- ginning to be like one who had never been; and he knew she shared this feeling. The light in her deep eyes was telling him already what her an- swer to him would be; and life stretched forth before him full of love and happiness and hope.
