Brawny Giants Settle Dispute With Bare Fists In "The Hints of Hell," ,
"William Desmond Drama.
Up in the Yukon, wfiere life is In the raw, men settle personal things in a primitive-personal
way. Molly-coddles and invertebrates are lost in the shuffle and only
.the littlest survive In that region where nature is brutal and men go mad in the quest
for- gold. '
In 'The Mints of Hell." William Desmond's latest Exhibitors Mutual production, life
in the rough with the bark on Is exposed. Dan Burke (William Desmond) heard
the story of Clay Hlbbing"s treachery and Insults to beautiful Aline Chaudiare, and
trailed Hibbing to the Stag Saloon in Sundown.
Like two prehistoric cave-men, Dan and Hibbing, brawny giants, battled with
their fists, one for self-preservation and the other for the honor of a woman. At
the end of a furious fight Dan threw Hibbing bodily from the saloon and went back
to tell the woman he had avenged her insult .
Hibbing followed Dan over the Lillimuit Divide to "get" him and to steal the mine
which belonged to the girl's father. He found the "Mints of Hell," but, like many
others, was driven mad by the sight cf the "Devil's Coinage."
Dan saved the mine for the girl's father and married Aline, Chaudiar's beautiful
daughter, but he had to go through Hell to win.
The production is a smashing big drama of adventure with the thrill of red-blood '
and primitive emotions surging through.
There are some remarkably graphic scenes of Alaskan snow-storms with an ex
citing dog-sled race down the mountain-trail. '
An excellent cast supports Desmond, including Vivian Rich, Charles French,
Jack Richardson, Frank Lannlng and Edward Jobson.

, THE STOBY OF "PITFAHS OF A BIG CITY.
MARION was good enough reason for anyone who wanted to live straight. When
Molly Moore looked at her little slsteT a great purpose came into her heart. She
would give up her old associates and lead a decent life. Marion must be educated
and become a lady. She must not sink into the kind of life Mblly had led.
The opening of the Little Gem Restaurant is, a congested tenement district was
the first step in Molly's straight career. Soon a thriving trade rewarded her efforts
1 and simplified the task of educating Marion.
When everything seemed to be going famously, Jerry Sullivan and Spike Davis
were released from the State prison. They had been Molly's pals in the old days,
and she had written to Jerry of her purpose to abandon the old crooked life. Jerry
promised that he, too, would go straight when he had served his term. But Spike
no sooner found himself at liberty than he stole a woman's purse, thrust it into
Jerry's hands and dashed out of sight Jerry hurled it from him and hurried to
Molly's little restaurant to tell her of his pal's crime. The police traced Jerry and
accused him of, the theft But Molly squared him. Then Jerry settled down as an
honest laborer. ,
Soon Spike arrived at the Little Gem Restaurant and told Molly he was anxious
to meet her "swell sister." Marion who, on her way to visit her wealthy school chum
had Just arrived for a brief stay. Molly brushed him aside. But that did not baffle
Spike. He forced his way into Marlon's room and tried to kiss her. After a terrific
fight Molly sent Spike out of the house. Marion, horrified, was persuaded to pro
ceed without delay to the home of her chum, Alice Bemberton. Alice's brother Ted
promptly fell in love with Marion and soon asked her to be his wife.
Marion accepted him, and the engagement was published. Spike, reading the
announcement told Molly she must help him rob the Pemberton mansion If she
refused, he would reveal Marion's identity. His threat could not shake Molly from
her resolve to live straight but on the night he crept to the Pemberton mansion a
great fear for Marlon's safety seized Molly and caused her to follow the 'thief
The police discovered the pair. Spike escaped, and Innocent Molly was taken to
the police station. In their efforts to find Spike, the police brought Jerry to the sta- '
tion. To him Molly told the whole story of the robbery. Jerry told the police he
would help them find the man who had framed Molly. In a dingy saloon they dis
covered Spike, who confessed after a terrific fight in which he killed a policeman
Molly was released. "
Liberty was line. But to Molly the kiss that Jerry gave her outside the prison
meant even more. It meant that she and he were going to leave the big citv anrt
its crime behind them and begin life anew in the far West It meant that her be
loved sister. Marion coul marry Into luxury, live her life with her wealthy friends
and never need fear that they would learn of Molly and her former crooked pals!
