By vsay of proof he shows Malone two sketches one, of the cliffs beneath the plateau, the other of a monstrous animal resembling the stegosaurus which had been among the possessions of an explorer, Maple White, whom he had found dead from starvation; some blurred photographs of what, appeared to be the same cliffs; and a piece of the wing of a huge Vying serpcnt, or ptero r.ous Lolorado scenic point, as the locale for a spectacular sequence of scenes in which Blanche Sweet and Ronald Colman stage a fierce fjgh: with an attacking mob of South American miners which ends in the burning of the mine buildings.

For stupendous size, both in cast and scenes; for super-thrills and for rare beauty of photography, this film version of the Sienkie-wicz classic is proclaimed an un-equaled masterpiece of screen artistry. Emil Jannings, noted for his work in "Passion," heads the cast, which is said to number more than 20,000 men, women and children.

The scenes, staged in Rome on the actual site of Xero's tyrannies, are enormous. The palatine. Circus tximus anS the Rome itself of Nero's time, half a century after the birth of Christ, form the background for the drama. The historic debaucheries of Nero and his court and the terrible cruelties of the edspot, as vividly pictured, are tempered by the tender love of the pagan Vinicius for the beautfiul Christian girl, Lygia, and tha unyielding faith of the followers of Peter, the Apotle, even when burned at the stake and thrown to the lions in the arena of the circus.

This Is the case during the taking of Hoot Gibson's latest picture, "Taming the West," a Universal-Gibson Special, showing at the Istrlone theatre Wednesday and Thursday.

One oZ the most exciting bits of action it an automobile piloted by Gibson in a chase over the plains of a western ranch. The chase is replete with skids and wild driving.

Professor Murray made several profound remarks to hia white tie and to the water-carafe upon tho table, with a humorous twinkling aside to tho silver candlestick upon his right. Then he sat down, and Mr. Waldron, the famous popular lecturer, rose amid a general murmur of applause.
