By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, November 8.—There's lots of difference between an “I” and Frank Nitti or Nitto, called a “public enemy” by the Crime Commission, and reputed leader in the gang of Alphonse Capone, experieneed some of the diffi- culties that sometimes come from in- correct spelling yesterday. He was about to get out of on a vagrancy charge when it was discovered that his bond schedule spelled his name “Nitto" in- "m“ d eof Nitti” He went back lo “Friends of mine,” he mourned, “and they can't even speil my name.” He finally got the matter straightened out. gaining his fry “The Cat Creeps,” at Rialto, Is Effective Ghost Story. HE goose-flesh producing qual- ities of “The Cat Creeps,” this week's feature of the Rialto, are even more potent than were the hair-raising ones of the original silent picture, “The Cat and the Canary,” whose reputation as a thriller has rarely been surpassed. ‘The horrified shrieks, howling of hounds, all made possible by the talking pictures, greatly add to the blood actress. Her penetrating shrieks, which rend the air when the dead man falls out of the hidden closet, seem to echo and re-ccho in one's ears long after the curtain falls. As the merits of a musical comedy are often determined by the haunting qualities of its musical numbers, one G ytery piag by the Nagering a mystery play e abilities of its shrieks. ‘There is no coubt that the “talkie” far surpasses the sflent movie in its ability to produce thrills. Even the :ere&-wnfll old grandfather clock, ing midnight for the first time in 20 years, helps to produce those . in your bones,” which human ‘creeps *beings pay to feel. The story of “The Cat Creeps” concerns the inheritance of a coun- try estate by six relatives of the de- ceased owner, an eccentric old man who willed that his property should not be disposed cf until 20 years after his death. Then, at midnight, 20 years after his death, his will is to be read and the heir to his fortune announced. A codicil in the will re- quires that if the rightful heir should die or become insane, the property shall go to a third party, whose identity is made known in a sealed envelope. The lawyer who holds the sealed envelope is mys. tericusly killed after the will has been read, and the property has been settled upon the pretty Annabelle. Annabelle almost loses her mind before the evening is ended, through the succession of horrors in her new home. The suspense as to who and what are behind all these horrors (xl:nunuu until the very end of the play. Supporting Miss Twelvetrees are Lilyan Tashman, Neil Hamilton, Raymond Hackett, Jean Hersholt, Montagu Love and others, who play their parts ably and effectively. Those who like the mystery thriller should not miss “The Cat Creeps.” Several short reel numbers, in- cluding The Evening Star-Universal newsreel, with Graham McNamee; an.amusing animated ‘cartoon, and a war burlesque comedy, “We We, Marie,” complete the program. G. 8. 8. Stage Presentation Strong Feature at the Palace. URELY artificial in development, and employing real characters, illogically associatcd with a cold- bi transaction, “The Virtuous Sin,” which opened yesterday at the Palace Theater, must depend entirely on the quality of its cast rather than on.any merit in the play. Some of those who invent plots for the screen are assumed to give attention to the necessity for presenting a series of obvious scenes which might inspire emotion and lead to a climax that is satisfactory to everybody con- cerned. In a dramatic emergency, with such a purpose, it often be- comes necessary to overlook the hu- man desire to witness retribution for treachery, and that is what has happened in the making of “The Virtuous Sin.” ‘The story is developed on the Rus- sian front at the opening of the World War. and wife have gives an outstanding characteriza- tion. * Jobyna Howland, in a char- acteristic role, furnishes the comedy of the production. Others in the cast are Paul Cavanaugh, Eric Kalk- hurst, Oscar Apfel, Gordon McLeod, Victor Potel and Youcca Troubetzkoy. In addition to the film, the Palace presents one of the most attractive stage programs seen In a long time. Artists in color and costuming have contributed lavish setting, and the acts exhibited represent skill which wins immediate recogntion. Beth and Betty Dodge are the stars of “Nightingale Melodies,” which in- * cludes some notable whistling: thrill- ing acrobatics by the Deval Foursome, original cycle riding, singing and dancing, in which John Bryan, Walter Nilsson and Harry Borjes are featured, with the Chester Hale Girls and the Palace Orchestra. The “Krazy Kat"” comics are especially amusis and the news reel covers the latest events. One of the novel- ties is a stage group representing penguins. D.c.C. Stage Show Better Than “Love in the Rough” at Earle. TAKEN from the mildly invigorat- ing play, “Spring Fever” ‘the new film at the Earle, “Love in the Rough,” is a very gentle golfing comedy, with high spots due solely to the clowning of Benny Rubin. It 18 one of those films—becoming more obsolete, one is told, daily— that allow the players to burst into song at no especial provocation and to be pursued wherever they -may happen to be by an invisible White- manesque orchestra. ‘The total result is distinctly not above the average, In spite of Mr. Rubin and Robert Munt,lm’:;lny who began by being one of e mort natural of the screen’s juveniles llv& is, unfortunately, going coy on us. ‘There is, however, Dorothy Jordan to look at and—if one may discard the whimsicality of the lines—a tune that is being successfully broadcast over the radio ever other minute or so. Once upon a time—so goes the narrative—there was & young clerk in & shipping office who, because he could play golf, grew into high favor with his boss, won the hand of the daughter of a wheat king and finally mollified the objections of his irate father-in-law when he married the girl by winning & golf game. The producers of this, evidently anxious to try to make the audience forget the plot, have besought Benny Rubin to be funny. And he is. And therein lies the film's only grentness The stage show is, however, in the language of the haughty, “another breed of cats.” Headed by the inde- fatigable Tom Patricola, who dances with all the clumsy grace that is his alone, this vaudeville entertainment becomes easily the best so far to ap- pear cn the boar of the Earle. Besid Mr. Patricola, who seemed at yesterday's performance too fond of clowning and not enough of dancing, this erstwhile star of the “Scandals” and of late familiar to flin patrons, is assisted by two spirited dancers, the Pearl Twins. ‘Therc are, besides, those three haunting ladies of song. the Brox Sisters, at their very, very best: Carlfon Emmy and his “merry wags. the best canine act on the market, and Willy, West and McGinty, who destrov a house in an effort to build it. ‘The sum total is something way up near the top and is recommended unhesitantly to those who take their vaudeville soricusly or not. 4 E. de 8. M. New Keith Film Full of Salt and Salmen. 'HE plot of “The Silver Horde," this week’s film at R-K-O Kell might be defined as the romance of canned salmon—but it is also remi- niscent of the grand old type of Frozen North melodrama, ripe with the 1:ve of blonde and brunette for a man, snd full of fighting that is a rellef after the mollycoddling of many screen gems, With due respect to Rex Beach, however, although his story is full to_the brim of action and he-men characters, the best moments in this seem to be during the picturization of the life, death and finally canned immortality of the salmon. idently taken in Alaska, where they were meant t> be, are unusually ‘interesting and. unfortu- nately, just about take the breath out of the story THICK PERSIAN MOHAIR (Woel) Overstuffed Sofa and Twe Chairs. $77-50 $120 Suit 3 MILLER’S 71,2 5% XY Subscribe Today It costs only about 1Y Bave " Washingioms best newspa: per delivered to you regula ¥ morn: ‘They could be seen by’ | N INDEPENDENCE FuND”’ Successor Also Arrested With Five Other Persons Charged With Conspiracy.

MONTGOMERY, Ala., November 8.— Federal prohibition nts early today arrested seven persons, including, they sald, the sheriff and sheriff-elect of Lowndes County, at Hayneville.

The officers said those arrested were Sheriff Morrcw Willoughby, Buck Meadows, sheriff-elect; Leon West, & deputy sheriff; H. N. Patterson and Wilbur Winn, all of Hayneville. James W. Shields of New Orleans, Federal prohibition agent, who said he had spent 30 days In Lowndes County gathering evidence, 'said " he led the raiding party. Shields, according to United States District Attorney Grady Reynolds hert reported that he had made purchases of liquor direct from Sheriff Willough- by while posing as a racketeer from St. Louls and last night set a trap for the officer. Tells of Alleged Deal. Shields said he arranged fcr a meet- ing at a shack in Hayneville, and that Depuly West appeared and a deal was closed for delivery of 40 gallons. Shields said when arrested a short time later West had in his possession $200 in marked bills passed in completing the deal.

It is a somewhat childish conception of the enmity one man has for another because he tries to rival him with his fisheries. With- out apparént cause, this villain mans his boats up there in Alaska, after the fashion of the armada, and is met by his rival with an equal fleet, whereupon there is a free-for-all, with men dropping like ants into the water, while the blonde ingenue sighs and the dark-eyed heroine sobs, and Blanche Sweet cries, fuss over canned salmoi As a matter of fact, the acting throughout is excellent. Louls Wcl- heim contributes his usual bull-faced comedy, Raymond Hatten appears to give life to any wilting moment, and Evelyn Brent, noted for being way up in the ranks of splendid actresses, is true to her acting laurels. A word for Blanche Sweet, too, who makes much out cf a very small ro Comedies, newsreels and the R-K- Olians complete an entirely satis- factory bill. F. DE & M.
