y THURSDAY, JUNE 24, 1926 THE KEY WEST CITIZEN eeeeesceses STRAND TODAY “Hands Up!” Newest Ray Griffith Vehicle The thrilling adventures of} Raymond Griffith as a eae ite carefree Confederate spy and a} member of General Robert E.| Lee's staff, ending with his effort! to find a way out of his greatest! quandary, that of deciding be- tween the loves of two beautiful girls—these are the highlights of} the silk hat comedian’s newest} starring picture for Paramount,}| “Hands Up!” The story begins in spirited | fashion when General Lee dis-| patches Griffith to Nevada to at- tempt to divert to the south the/| supply of gold from the fabulous-| ly rich “Molly” mine which has been the source of the Union’s fi-| nancial strength. | Griffith meets the Union agent, | Montagu Love, and the owner of | the mine, Mack Swain, while traveling westward on the stage coach. He also meets Swain’s| beautiful nieces, Marion Nixon! and Virginia Lee Corbin, and + promptly falls in love with both. Griffith wins the confidence of | Swain and is made superintendent of the mine. However, his dup- licity is discovered and the towns- people are about to hang him when Miss Nixon and Miss Corbin save him. His subsequent experiences in getting the gold through to the Confederate army only to discover that the war is over, and the out- come of his romance with the two girls are amusingly set forth and vividly depicted.
