Judg- ing from the reception accorded Barrymore's new United Artists film, it will challenge all attendance and popularity records at the Strand. “Tempest” is crammed with ac- tion, not to mention plenty of humor, from the opening of tWe story, when the star is a peasant officer plunged into the gay life of pre-war Russia, to the final scenes, when he rescues a princess, his sweetheart, from bloodthirsty hordes and escapes with her to a new life of happiness. The select vaudeville program has five splendid acts headed by the Parmita-Millet's Revue, a snappy variety offering with new songs, dances and shapely girls.

GRAND—HARTFORD A brand new edition of an old Mutual Burlesque favorite is prom- ised for all next week beginnirg Monday, when Irving Selig with “Girls From Happyland” comes to open an engagement. Irving Seliz. the rotund comic, again heads the mirth division. Never has he been more humorous than in the impend- ing show and never has Selig been provided with as clever material. Aiding him in the fun section is Ben Lerner, an experienced Dutch dialect fun creator who wins laughs galore with his unique eccentricities of wit. Fred Reese is the straight man of the plece and Nat Tucker has much to do as the snappy ju- venile. A trinity of pretty young women head the all-essential feminine ele- ment. Rose Lee, beautiful of face and divine of form, is the prima donna whose blues songs are always welcome and whose syncopated rep- ertoire this season is a gem of the song maker's art. Alice Duval 18 the little French ingenue, a win- some miss who sings and dances and makes herself a general favor- ite throughout the offering. In addition there is the snappy team of Kelly and Mills and Keisha the mystery girl whom you should- n't fail to see. Reservations can be obtained by telephoning the box of- fice. SAYS MANY SEE FAIRIES Sir Arthur Conan Doyle \Btlletel They Are Ashamed to Admit the Fact They See Spirits. Londgn, Sept. 16 (#—A number of people can see fairies but “are ashamed to say so because of the foolish incredulity with which their observations would be greeted,” Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, novelist, be- lieves. Addressing the congress of the In- ternational Spiritualists association he asserted also that fairies can be photographed and isplayed a photo- graph purporting to show a faivy presenting a flower to a little girl. He also showed pictures of wood | elves dancing and bathing in a | woodland pool and a girl playing | with a gnome who danced in rhythm to her handclapping. . Sir Arthur further recounted that | he had been in spiritualist contact with the novelist Joseph Conrad. “He asked me to do sométhing for him,” he said. “It seemed as if his spirit was uneasy and he wanted to link up with the world once more." Sir Arthur also claimed to have received a long message from Earl Haig three days after the field mar- shal's death and said: T asked his relatives, whom the message con- cerned, whether they would like to see the-message but they did not re- ply. Earl Haig was a spiritualist and T cannot help feeling very much for him in the circumstances.” U. S.

Before he returns to Rochester, Oct. 1, to attend the democratic state convention the democratic presidential nominee will travel on an elevep car, elaborately equipped special train, will swing into thir- teen states, many of which he has never visited before, and only one of which, Oklahoma, was carried by his party in the 1924 presidential race. 4 To Speak in Six In six of the commonwealths, Ne- braska, Oklahoma, Colorado, Mon- tana, Minnesota and Wisconsin—he will deliver campaign addresses the last being set for Wisconsin, the only state the late Senator Robert | M. LaFollette, running on an inde- pendent presidential ticket, carried four years ago. John W. Davis, democratic stand- ard bearer in 1924, won out in the border state of Oklahoma by nearly 30,000 votes, but lost by wide mar- gins in all other states through which Governor Smith will pass during his first two weeks' speal ing tour. In five of them—Wyomin, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesot: and Wisconsin—Davis ran last in the three cornered presidential con- test.
