The management of the mill has been offering surprises for the pa trons each week and this Saturday night will be no exception to the rule.

The Frolic Again this evening will the call of he dance find the Frolic, the pre miere dancing club, crowded with the happy crowds who have learned that the dance is to be enjoyed in this beautiful place to a greater extent than anywhere else in the entire city. The wonderful floor, the largest, in the state, is in the best of shape, and is all' ready for the crowds. The re freshment concession will of course be at the convenience of the dancers throughout the evening. Carrol Reed's symphony in jazz furnishes the music, that's the best kind of a guarantee for the perfection in the inspiration.

Doug Fairbanks at Strand With 'the final screenings today at the Strand, Douglas Fairbanks fin ishes his engagement in "The Mark of Zorro. The special kiddies three cent matinee is underlined for this afternoon from 1 to 5 o'clock, when any boy. or girl in the city, on pres entation of the coupon printed in yes terday s papers, accompanied by three cents will be entitled to any seat in the theater. "The Mark of Zorro" is unquestionably the fastest picture Douglas Fairbanks has ever made. His is a dual characterization wide ly different, dramatic, thrilling and amazing, a role in which he covers himself with the greatest kind of glory. The story is of the early days in California and depicts the oppres sion of the people by the cruel rulers of the land. This oppression "Zorro," noted bandit of the day, seeks in his own way to break, and hence the es capades which have terrified the sol diery. "Zorro" is an expert swords man, a dashing fighter, a gallant lover, a friend to the poor, a foe to the rich, and it is around this inter esting figure that the story winds. It was originally printed under the title of "The Curse of Capistrano' and as such was widely read in a popular magazine. The fact that this is the last day of the engagement will more than likely mean that the Strand will be crowded with those who would take this final opportuni ty of seeing one of the most excep tional cinema's master work ever of fered the public. Tomorrow will start the engagement of Miss DuPont in another sensational success "The Rage of Paris, a Universal special, a production based on night life of the great French metropolis. It comes with the very highest of recommen dations, and is cited as one of the most spectacular productions of the new season.

May Allison at Plaza "The Marriage of William Ashe," starring May Allison, will be the fea ture attraction at the Plaza theater, today only. This new Metro produc tion is announced by competent au thorities to be one of the outstanding dramatic pictures of the year, and one of the best in which the star, Miss Allison, ha3 yet been seen. Miss Allison will be seen in the role of Lady Kitty Bristol, who flees from the convent in which she has been placed by her parents and travels to London, where at length she makes the acquaintance of William Ashe, the secretary for home affairs in the British cabinet, and subsequently marries him. Following her mar riage to Ashe and their honeymoon abroad. Lady Kitty meets' Chffe, a radical, who poisons her mind with political intrigue against the party of her husband.

She strives to square herself, how ever, but is prevented by Ashe. She then returns to the convent from which she fled, only to be found there some time later by Ashe, who for gives and loves her. Under Sea Pictures "Wet Kold," Ralph Ince's famous under water production, which is being shown for the last times today at Mauk's Columbia theater, is un doubtedly one of the most thrilling and entertaining photoplays ever produced. Most of the scenes in the picture were taken on the floor of the ocean off the Bahama-islands. lhe men are seen threading their way through the soft mud of the ocean bottom in and out of the beautiful coral and rock formations and avoiding the thousands of fish and other creatures of the deep that swim about. All this underwater photography forms part of a thrilling adventure MAUK'S COLUMBIA THEATRE LAST TIMES TODAY The greatest underwater pic ture ever filmed.

LIKE THE Your story that begins on land, and in volves a hunt for hidden treasure that a band of pirates has spirited away and buried in a cave in the bot tom of the sea. To locate the treas ure, a submarine is brought into the story, and the divers who go in search of the treasure use the under sea boat as a rendezvous. They are seen leaving the submarine, fighting their way through the water, and digging up the hidden treasure. Ralph Ince became so interested In Mr. Williamson's new idea in motion picture photography that he not only agreed to direct "Wet Gold," but also to play the leading part. He is seen in many thrilling episodes that seem to defy the laws of the buoyancy of water. Mr. Ince has been acting for the screen since the days of its earlj popularity, and besides acting and directing Mr. Ince has found that his athletics prowess has often been called upon to make a scene realistic. "In "Wet Gold" Mr. Ince is seen div ing from a vessel into the water, swimming to the bottom of the sea and coming uphrough an air cham ber of a submarine lying below. This is a remarkable athletic feat that has a decided dramatic value. The unanimous opinion of all who saw this wonder picture is that it has no equal in its class. The re markable underwater scenes were made possible by the discovery of J. Ernest Williamson, of a device that will enable one to take pictures under water as far as the eye could see. Heretofore the range has been limit ed to about three feet. Many won derful and startling effects have been obtained. Thus has science taken another step forward in the develop ment of the photoplay industry. A Ford Educational Weekly, a comedy, and the enlarged Columbia orchestra presenting a musical pro gram that alone is worth the price of admission are seen with this re markable picture.

"And don't keep me waiting when I page you, I said. "Yes, sir,'' he replied. "Pull up a chair and ait down," I said. "Yes. sir," he replied. "How about this war?" I began.

"I thought you meant the war between Secretary Garrison and Bill Bryan." This nettled me considerably. It showed how aloof the president kept himself, but by golly it nettled me just the same. And I hate to be net tled. I think." I said to the president, "that I should write you a letter tell ing you what you should do." Uhuh," he replied. "The letter will take a great load oft your mind, and it will also be a good thing for me to have when I get out my memoirs for the Times." "Shoot!" said the president. That was very unlike him. In fact. I never heard him use the expression before. However, I gave him my shoes to shine and stepped over to my type writer and batted out the following letter: Dear Mr. President: Tou are lay "-ing yourself open to criticism which BEAUTY GIRLS REVUE FROM MAINE' "THE SIX BEST CELLARS" COMEDYg TIME TODAY BIGGEST mwm.m iy, wary; may embarrass me. For some time the proper course for you-to pursue has been very clear to me, and I have concluded to tell you what to do.

Let us, therefore, be up and doing. Y'ou will kindly oblige me by plan ning a declaration of war at once against Germany. I think I can frame the declaration so that the Germans will think it a friendly act and thus avoid losing the- German vote. Your loving secretary, JOE. CHAPTER X THE DECLARATION It became very evident to me that congress would accept the president's suggestion and declare war at once. I realized that this would win more crtdit for congress than for the presi dent. "What shall I say In my message?" he inquired. "Leave that to me." I replied. "To you!" he gasped, showing some concern. "Yes," I said, taking a speech from my waistcoat. "There is your ad dress. I wrote it six months ago."

For miles the tract is as level aa a floor, looking almost exactly like the prairies of the West.
