Based on that _universally read classic by Alexander Dumas, “The Three Musketeers,” and added to from the Memoirs of D’Artagnan, this feature is said to embody more that is adventurous, romantic end dramatic than it has ever before been possible to incorporate in a film ve- hicle. Fred. Niblo, who directed Douglas ‘airbanks in ‘“The Three Muske- teers,” was formerly a Cohan & Harris star in the “speakies.” “GET RICH.QUICK” FILM AT THE ELKO TONIGHT The adventures of that intimitable pair- Rufus Wallingford and “Blackie” Daw, as slick a pair of crooks as ever beat a board bill, will be disclosed in “Get-Rich-Quick-Wal- lingford,” a Paramount Cosmopolitan production to be shown at the Elko theater beginning tonight. The pic- ture is an adaption of the famous stage success of the same name by George M. Cohan and is said to be a succession of hearty laughs from the start to finish.

Madison, curator of the Cleveland Museum of ‘Natural History. The African uses the eggs of the snail for food, but saves the shells with which to buy his wife. Money cowrles, a name given to cer- tain kinds of shells, were used as u mediuin of exchange in India and oth- er Far East countries as early as 700 A. D. ‘White coral and other shell animals, after being subjected to enormous pressure and tense heat, when buried in the earth, ultimateiy ave turned into marble which is used to build the finest palaces of man.

Harte said that he had written . “The Heathen Chinee” for amusement, then had thrown it in.the waste bas- ket; that, presently there was a call for copy to finish out the Overland Monthly and let It go to press. He had nothing' else, so he. fished “the “Chinee” out of the busket and sent that. “As we all remember,” Twain says in that part of his autoblography written in 1908, “it created an explo- sion of delight whose reverberations reached the last confines of Christen- dom, and Harte's nawe, from being to invisibility In the one week, notorious and as visible in the s if it had been painted on the sky In letters of astronomical magni- tude,” Harte regarded this fame as a disaster, because he was already working on such things as “The Luck of Roaring Camp” and “Tennessce's Partner.” Stuart Paton wrote the story of' am Hardy with consummate ility.

An additional fact that should serve as a sort of guaranty for the highest order of entertainment is that Em- mett J. Flynn directed this special production. Mr. Flynn is was who made for Fox “A’ Connecticut Yan- kee,” and that other gripping special “‘Shame.” Ben Turpin at the Rex theater Sunday in the role of the cross-eyed conductor who said that he wouldn’t steal a nickel from the company for fear that he couldn’t look anyone straight in the face.
