Miss Phillips is supported by a cast which includes Robert Ellis, Wallace Beery, the most royally hated villain on the screen; James O. Barrows and Frances Raymond, for years on the legitimate stage; Gertrude Astor, a rare type of “society” beauty; Wil- liam Fong, the Chinese member of the cast who is a “find” of Mr, Hol- ubar’s and Jack Donovan. Ben Turpin in his new comedy en- titled “Home Made Movies” will also be seen Sunday. “FIFTY CANDLES” AT THE ELKO THEATER TONIGHT In adapting “Fifty- Candles,” the Saturday Evening Post story, to the sereen, Irvin V. Willat has re- tained all of the mystery, the in- teresting characterization and the puzzling suspense which were in- corporated in the original, and in order to clothe the picture with the proper atmosphere he and his com- pany spent several weeks in Hono- lulu and San Francisco “shooting” the locations described in the story. « Fifty Candles” a Hodkinson re- lease showing at the Elko theater tonight last time, is - a .~ mystery story that keeps the audience in & state of expectancy from start to finishy It has thrills galore and enough sensational developments to give the mest hardened movie fan the. thrill of his life.

The popular impression is the jungle have powerful eyes; but, sight. lies on his other senses, mostly on smell, to compensate for this, writes L. E. Eubaunks in Our Dumb Animals.

FRUIT HAS DIVERS FLAVORS Durion, Growing Only in Burma, High- ly Esteemed by Some and Dis- liked by Others. In Burma ‘is found a curious and | delicious frult, called the durion. This | fruit grows on.a tree of about sixty teet in helght. It Is oval:shaped, from | ten to twelve inches in length and | from six to eight feet in diameter. It is of a light green color and the outside is covered with thorns half an inch long. These thorns are very tough and strong. The interior is divided into five sections, in which lie rows of seeds about an inch long, surrounded with the delicious pulp, which is con- sidered a great delicacy by those who like it. Others dislike the taste. The flavor Is described as follows: “Take the sweetest bananas, the richest pine- apples, the most juicy of oranges, some peaches and, cream, flavor the mixture with some rare spice, and you picture patrons for many seasons.

This singular name is given by the inventor, Eduardo Torresty Quevedo, 4 Spaniard, to an apparatus intended |- to take the place of stenography in reporting speeches. The apparatus, which consists” simply of a serles of little bells, requires the co-operation of eight or ten writers. Each writer takes a single phrase from the speak- er’s mouth. At the tinkle of a bell on his left he begins. to write what he hears. * The bell on his right arrests him and sets his neighbor at work. By the time the circuit is made the first writer is ready, for another phrase. Afterward the phrases, which are numbered in their order of taking, are reunited to form the entire report. Tried at the Athenee, in' Madrid, the dianemologo is said to have given sat- lufn}:tory results.—Washington Star. Indian Emerald Mines Located. The. Conquistadores, when they seized the rich emerald mines of Co- lombia, forcing the native Indians to work them, suspected the existence of other mines. After a search of three_vears in Colombia, Christopher Dixon, engineer for the Colombian Em- erald syndicate, says he has located some of the ancient mines hidden from the profiteering Spaniards by the pa- tives. i The emeralds of Colombia are the finest, but not the biggest, in the world, IN PLACE that all large, dangerous animals of | Remarkable Upheaval Sald to Be With out Precedent in History of British East Africa.
