^ <s> AT THE OPERA HOUSE <8> ? <S> Road Shows. ^ <?> * < > "Mutt and Jeff at the Races." Those famous cartoon comics, Mutt and Jeff, originally created by "Bud" Fisher and brought into national fame toy Gus Hill, are announced to hold forth in a < merry whirl of action, mirth, music, pretty girls, gorgeous costumes, novelty surprices and their latest adventures at the opera house Tuesday, November 16. This year their exploits will be^ served through the medium of a brand new musical play of wit, hu ^ 1 _ -i__ ?i!xi ^ j 4. mor, song ana meioay enuueu m.ulu and Jeff at the Race." Of course, the same old arguments will be revived, patched up and renewed as of yore, but amidst atmosphere and environment that will tickle, please and ( amuse their millions of admirers. A wild orgy of unalloyed delight, hilarity, and unstinted joy is promised. Mutt and Jeff are an institution and purely American at that. ^ : <S> AT THE OPERA HOUSE. <S> "Dangerous to Men." Viola Dana has the most, interesting screen play of her . career in "Dangerous to Men," the new Metro production seen at the opera house Friday. The picture is adapted by A' P- Younger from H. V. Esmond's drama, "Eliza Comes to Stay," and the screen version reveals possibilities that were never brought out in the orginal play. Miss Dana appears as Eliza, the orphan girl who at 18 is thrust into a bachelor's household as his ward. She was an ugly duckling but she grew in cfearm until she was considered "dangerous." It is a role that gives Miss Dana the opportunity of her career. Few actresses could have been equally ' convincing as the tomboy school girl of the early scenes and the dangerous siren of the climax of the drama. Yet Miss Dana bridged the gap of years with amazing virtuosity. By subtly artistic strokes fhe pictured the gradual development of the child through 4he inspiration of love into a fascinating young woman. Coming on top of her characterization of the Japanese girl in "The Willow Tree," Miss Dana's performance establishes her m the front rank of motion picture actresses. An excellent supporting cast includes Milton Sills, Edward Connelly, Josephine Crowell, Marian Skinner, John P. Morse, James Barrows,! i r? Mollie McGonnell ana tieien Jcuiy-[ mon. The photography was by John Arnold and A. E. Freuderman designed the beautiful interiors set-1 x tings. The entire production was under the direction of Maxwell Kar-' ger, Metro, director general. x "Twin Beds." j The' picture, "Twin Beds/' which Mr. and Mrs. Carter DeHaven bring to the opera house Monday is a transfer to tjie screen of one of the most popular and successful farce comedies that the stage has produced. It comes as the first of these favorites' productions in affiliation with AssoI ciated First National pictures. The original plot of this ever enjoyable piece has been closely follow" * * ? :* ;a ed in maKing xne piciure, auu os n, ic? said to be one of the costliest plays ever purchased for picture use, a great deal of expense has been incurred in making tHe production adequate. It is reported to be a feature of exceptional merit from all angles . of presentation. A glance at the cast of characters is sufficient to convince followers of pictures that u this is a well-nigh all-star attraction. Besides Mr. and Mrs. DeHaven there are in the cast such luminaries as William Desmond, himself a popular Uolon "Rnirmnnrr who created O tfll ) JL XVAVti t the role of Signora Monti in the original" London production of the play, Katherine Lewis and Lottie Williams. The picture is said to fulfill all the prophecies made concerning it, and with these two popular favorites, supported by so competent a group of players, it bids fair to afford unusual entertainment. SHRINERS SHOW WELL RECEIVED / * ? Performance Given at Columbia Theatre?Snap and Spirit. The State, 4th. Possessing all the interesting features of a local performance while lacking the usual detractions of such a production, the Leo Dietrichstein farce, "Are You a Shriner?" was Y presented twice at the Columbia theatre yesterday. It went with a snap and 3pirit that sent its comedy bubbling over the footlights to be iecboed in an almost continuous J I laugh, and in no respect?not in thej matter of acting, nor setting, nor j costuming?did the production sug- j gest amateurishness. The cast con- j tained much real talent and, on its! feminine side, some very good looks,! and altogether the show deserved the j cordial praise which was lavished on ; it by persons present at either thei matinee or the night performance. ; "Are You a Shriner?" was pre-j sented by the A1 Araf Shrine club of Columbia and it added still another: success to the Columbia record of! Daniel R .Reed, director of the Co- j lumbia Stage society, who naa en- j tire charge of the production from; start to finish and himself lent a fine i touch to the performance in his act-! ing of an eccentric character part, j Well Known Comedy. The play is the well known comedy success, "Are You a Mason?" and not only was "the name changed; to suit Columbia purposes, but the whole play was localized just enough to enhance the Interest and increase the comedy. The Shrine band, dressed in their uniforms, added notes of color as well as of harmony to the occasion and helped to make the show the finished product that it was. Needless' it is to review the suc CeSSlOIl 01 liircicili Mouanviia wu;vu make up three brisk acts; impossi-j ble, too, to comment upon the merit j of each actor in the cast . Suffice it to say that the following Columbians took part and could have successfully concealed the fact that they are amateurs had they not been personally known to everybody in the two audiences: Walter F. Going, as I Frank Perry, a young married man, j who is camouflaging . as a Shriner;' Miss Grace Buster as Eva, his wife; FHwin L. Randle as Amos Bloodgood, his father-in-law, likewise pretending membership in the mystic Shrine; Miss Mary Perry, as Mrs. Bloodgood. a comedy character part; Misses Isa-j bel Wells and Beulah Hall as their chic and charming young daughters; Joe N. Golden, as George Fisher, who in one act masquerades as a French girl and thereby provides some of the richest fun in the play; Donald Duncan, as Charles Halton, a preparatory Shriner; Charles N. Griffin, a real Shriner; Daniel A. Heed, as a funny little actor-manager; Mrs. Blanche Williams Herron, as an Irish maid; Mrs. Thomas N. Ryan, as Mrs.; Walton; Miss Eileen Farrell, as the, 1 tt. i_ _:_1 ?j t> m,.a17ic*nr rcai rrtriicii gui, emu xv. a policeman, as himself. Cooperation of Town. | The Shriners had the cooperation of nearly the whole town in putting on their play and on the program they made acknowledgement as follows: To F. B. Shaceiford, for the loan of gowns worn by the women; Kohn's for Gossard corset worn byx Mr. Golden in his impersonation scene; Hope-Davis Co., Perry-Mann Electric Co., R. C. Williams and Sons, Inc., for furniture used; Lorick Bros, and Visanska Jewelry shop. 0. Frank Hart, grand secretary, 0. F. M., afforded a bit of introuctory comedy as he strolled around the lobby of the theatre wearing an impressive Prince Albert coat, a silk hat, bright red "vest, dazzling yellow cravat and a headlight scarf pin which flashed when the electric current was applied. He spoke a word * ^ * 4-Imiu Q VI Welcome uetwccn av^uo, iuuo wifording the audiences a better view of his grandeur and also walked at the head of the parade which moved up tow after the matinee to scare up the crowd for the night performance. This object was achieved, for a large house was present. ANDERSON NEGROES BADLY BEATEN UP Victims Threatened With Death-' If Names of Assailants Arc Divulged. The State. Anderson, Nov. 8.?Dave Benson and Sam Benson, two negroes, were cruelly beaten last night by unknown I ?<!?( ;?( ti-iqit cqt tVint thpv were pai J. UWjr v*4viv ?*.-j .. walking along the paved highway not far from their homes west of the city four men in an automobile came along and grabbed them and placed them in the automobile and then drove to an unfrequented place and took them out and gave them a beating. After this they were driven Royston, Ga., but when the men got there, they seemed to change their minds and turned around and drove back and put the negroes out in about a mile from their home. They live on the Byrum place. Mr. Byrum said that they came to his place about 3 o'clock this morning and were so badly beaten and in such a pitiable condition that he sent for a physician. Tne neeroes refuse to say who their assailants were but say there were two white men and two negroes and that they were told that if they gave any names that they would be killed. They are afraid to tell. The officers thought that the ne ? groes might have been beaten on ac-1 count of the raid recently upon j gamblers in that neighborhood, but i they can rot account for the two j white men. Officers are working on 1 some clues. COTTON MOVEMENT WLL NOT FAIL: _ j ( Continued From Page 1.) the first of December when the bear has the entire month for his delivery. Then you will see a sag until about the 15th, when pressure for the raw cotton to replace his paper will start the ball again up the hill. Mr. Farmer do you know, can you realize that if you would not sell another bale for 40 days you would be bid above 30 cents for just enough of the cotton you hold to get the fellow out of distress who is new making you sweat? The distress cotton that has been sold in this country, at least 80 per cent, of it, has gone out of this country through export. The stocks you see daily advertised are from 70 to 75- per cent, low grade cotton. In Memnhis alone thev renort a stock of 288,000 bales. Do you know that 175,000 bales of this is very low grade and carried over from last year? A large part of it is perished staple and being offered .to the trade at 12 cents, with no takers-. It is being used against you as propaganda, but it can never be used against you while you have the good grades and staples and it takes these to fill com ^ _ x? 2- ^ 1 1 mitments to mms. uor.unue iu neeu the advice of Mr. Waimamaker, subscribe to the Exports corporation, and you will win your fight forever. | Something has been said about bad advice. Your association set the, price last year at 40 cents. When, those that had cotton could get this' price and did not sell, he was the maker of his own bed. The goal was j reached and remained there longj enough for all that had cotton to J sell, and there is no use in any one blaming B. Harris or any one else.

Mr. Wannamaker's plan, a 1 ! gigantic undertaking, is -the only i honest to goodness business propo-j sition ever put up to the farmer, and' having worked this out from much study of the economic conditions and the spending of much money from j his private fortune, to bring. about! concrete results, he deserves only the highest commendation from all of us.
