SCORES IN MIX PICTURE AT AMERICA Admirers of “Tony.” famous Tom Mix cow pony, will be delighted with the animal's cleverness and new adroltness in “The Trouble Shooter,” which opened last night at the America theater. Perhaps the most daring run which Tony has ever made with ‘Tom astride his back is in the pres- ent picture wherein the famous pony travels at break-neck speed over a high railway bridge, which spans a deep chasm in the gorges of Yosemite Valley, California. The runway over which Tony carries his master {s but a foot-wide plank be- tween the rails. Immediately be- hind thé horse and rider thunders a big locomotive and heavy train. ‘Tony wins by leas than a couple of seconds. Tho distance covered ts approximately half a mile. A slip would throw horse and rider over the unguarded edge of the bridge to the gorge below, a sheer drop of five hundred feet. | 4 “That may be an easy way to earn money, and I understand Tom Mix gets a salary of $10,000 a week,” commented the engincer of the big locomotive which followed horse and rider over ouldn't ride ven on a walk Pacific rcflwa: With Mix in the cast are Kath the bridge, ¢"but I a horse over that or all the Southern Jeen Key, Earl Fox, J.

The peiture was cted by John Con way, and Mix unc onably does the best work of his career, although the role is entirely new to him. He portrays n western “trouble shooter in the employ of a power company which has strung wires through the|s snow-capped peaks of the Slerra Nevada mountains, ‘There is a thrill a minute and the story by Frederick and Fanny Hat ton is one of the finest they have done for William Fox, which is to say tho finest of their collaboration “The Trouble Shooter” runs today.

She plays an important role in “The Lightning Rider,” Hunt Strom- berg’s second production starring Harry Carey, now playing at the Wyoming theater, but her reputation for comprehensive histrionism was gained some few years ago when she began in vaudeville as the partner of Folix Adler. Miss Ross has headlined in every two-a-day house in America and, with Mr. Adler, has been a “bill top- per” in England as well. Her vaudeville experience has been interspersed with musical comedy leads, when she played in “Leave it to Jane,” “His Little Widows,” and the “Century Mid- night Whirl." She was also ingenue with the Washington Square Players at one time, Miss Ross's popularity with the theater-going public, as well as her dramatic ability, makes her a for- tunate choice for the role of the “vamp” in “The Lightning Rider.” TEST FLIGHTS WILL PRECEDE TRIP TO POLE Amundsen Expedition Will Make Stop at Spitzbergen CHRISTIANIA, May 17.—(By the Associated Press).—A series of ex- perimental flights will be made to ascertain the effect of extreme cold on the airplane engines before the Amundsen artic expedition is started, according to the present plans of the explorer, who will lead the first at tempt to cross the pole by air.

Vision, nowadays, however, goes only so far when it encounters a slip, In the matter of pretensions, the slip is encountered earlier than in the matter of dress, At any rate, present-day chests and closets are filled with lace trim- med garments. ‘This ts to be expect- ed in the case of June bridles, but it holds good even with those whose hope chests have had time to become depositories for matrimonial regrets. The French designers are lavish- ing laces of every description on their summer afternoon and evening frocks. One of ‘the most charming examples brought to this side recent- ly {s an afternoon brown georgette trimmed with Wat- ney lace of the same color, which extends in a long V from the bateau neck line to the waist and which has inverted V shaped inserts of the same material extending from the arm pit to the skirt hem. The similar inverted V trimming of the skirt is followed in an even- ing dress of white satin which is ad- orned with silver lace. In the boque- fant mode, the skirts frequently are trimmed with deep borders of silver on black and medallions of silver lace, picked out and emphasized by embroldery of pearls and bright bends. Perhaps the most striking model seen recently, however, fs a creation of Molyneaux, who makes a special- ty of a trimming of Racine lace.

LONDON—The prevailing colors at present are very lovely and strik- ing. Lacquer red is atill a favorite as well as burgundy red, bright yellow and Chinese blue. LONDON.—Often today when a frock is given a panel in apron form, it has a deep cape collar to match. The panel, usually finely plaited, is often in two tiers, and the cape— hanging from the shoulders in back —copies the two-tfered effect. hal NEW YORK.—Top coats at pres- ent are In many styles, including those which are half cape and half coat. Some of them have dozens of tiny glass buttons with an edg- ing of silver braid. Others have narrow bands of fur around the collar and. hem. NEW YORK.—There is an appeal- ing youthfulness about lttle navy suits shown here today with white picot edge, the coat of which fastens only at the neck and flares open at the waist. It is of course, a short coat and has a swanky throw scarf of the navy material. NEW YORK.—One feature of certain new Oxfords is that the lacings are all a merry jest. You don't lace them; you slip them on, thanks to elastic inserts at the sides. . GROCER SLAIN BY ROBBERS OMAHA, May 17.—J. 8. Spellman, 65, grocer, who eight times had faced the guns of holdup men in his shop and each time emerged victorious, once woundi:g his man and routing his assailants on the other occasions; cently on the Avenue, achieved a striking panel effect by means of a bright flame ‘colored scarf. Wearing p blue polret twill tailor made, she ‘wrapped the scarf tightly around her neck and buttoned the long trailing end under the jacket so that {t fell in a wide colorful panel from the bottom of the short coat to the hem of the skirt. The otherwise com- monplace costume, by these touches of color at neck and skirt, was lifted far from the level of mediocrity. Of the other trimmings, besides laces, hair and hide are tho most novel. One frock of French deriva- tion consists of a straight bodice of cloth of silver, worn over a binck slip with the skirt adorned with a dozen complete horse tails, dyed red, gray and white, hanging from the hip line to the hem.
