AT THE THEATRE
THE ROUGHEST CREW THAT
EVER SANK SHIP
"The Man Hunter," in which Wil
liam Farnum is the star and which will
run at the Liberty Theatre, Friday,
Oct 17, runs from a high social plane
to the lowest depths of life. The
story itself is thrilling as it relates
directly to Mr. Farnum, but in addi
tion it has some fine touches of varied
phases of life. Types of all kinds are
seen in it, from wealthy men and wo
men and their debutante daughters to
pickpockets and blind beggars, who
can see well enough to count their
"pickings" at the end of the day.
These types can be found in any
city but few cities boast of such a
tough-looking gang of roughnecks as
are seen in the cheap underground
sleeping den in the play.
The picture, in fact, is an education
in types.
The story is a thrillingly dramatic
one, as are all of Mr. Farnum's pic
tures. He is one of the men of the
screen who 'are making pictures more
popular every day with the millions
who love a good, clean, thrilling story.
WILLIAM FARNUM HERE
IN THRILLING FILM
There are a dozen "big moments"
in the new William Farnum de luxe
production, "The Man Hunter," which
will be shown at the Liberty Theatre
next Friday, Oct. 17. The first comes
quickly on the screen. It is a most
furniture but the statuary and in this
confusion Arnold also battles with the
police—to be laid out finally by a night
i
realistic fight in the beautiful London since Wednesday night clear and cold
apartment of the man who has trick-j
ed George Arnold (William Farnum)
into poverty. The battle of these two
men, in the background of which flits
a beautiful girl, wrecks not only the
stick in the hand of a London "Bobby."
Another big moment is seen on a
trans-Atlantic pier in New York where
Arnold is working as a longshoreman.!
He sees going aboard the vessel ar
rayed in fine clothes, the man who has
robbed him. He leaps after the object
of his hatred like a madman, only to'
be thrown sprawling on the pier by!
the officers of the ship, and he lands
braised and bleeding at the feet of his
false friend's stylishly dressed com
panions.
Still another big moment arrives
when the vessel is at sea. Arnold,
having -stowed away finally meets his
man on deck. There is another fight
as wealthy society men and women
look on. Officers throw Arnold into
'the hold of the ship and chain him
there. Some time later a storm runs
the vessel upon rocks in the tropics.
The water is gradually filling the hold.'
A sailor ^releases Arnold. Arnold
comes to the deck where all is con-!
fusion—madness. With his powerful
voice he takes control, calms the pas
sengers, awes the maddened sailors,'
and begins putting them Into life
boats. Suddenly he sees the cowering
figure of the man he is after. He
forgets courtesy, his heroic heart al
most stops beating, and there wells
up in him an overpowering desire for
revenge. He leaps at his man—and
another struggle begins. Fate puts
ah end to "this fight by breaking the
vessel in two.
.The 'final big moment comes on a
desert island upon which the two men
have been washed along with the
daughter of an oil king, whose hand
the false friend was trying to win. It
is a big moment when Arnold tells
this man that he will let him live
because of the girl but the climax
comes when this false friend tries to
take advantage of the girl's plight.
Arnold witnesses his cowardly action
and again leaps at this man and they
struggle on a high cliff overlooking the
sea. It is a long tense battle, in
which fate again takes a hand by
causing the edge of the cliff to fall
away and carry the man to his just
end on the shore below.
Straight Talk With Klein
DO YOU KNOW WHY the revolu
tionary war was fought?
It was for property (we call it free
dom, but we wrote the word property
into our- constitution-)
DO YOU KNOW WHY The Franco
Prussian v/ar was fought?
It was for property. (They called it
honor but wrote the word property in
to their peace pact1.)
DO YOU KNOW WHY The great
world war was fought?
It was for property, (they said be
cause the prince was killed—yes, ten
million men were killed and all be
cause of property.).
If you are not fighting for property,
you are one of the conquered, instead
of the. conquerors.
Whatever you lo, get property, and
get it now.
Think this over and then come in
and let me explain as to how you can
become a wealthy land owner in a
lew years.

My! But we're glad to welcome you
back again. There hasn't been a day
since you left that we haven't thought
of you and the manly, courageous,
"regular American" way in which
you stepped up to do your duty.
War and its effects will sooner or
later be forgotten. Time with its
changes will be calling you back to
the pursuits of civil life. As we
served you "Before the War" so wiM
we consider it an honor to again
await your commands!
Of course, you'll want to begin civilian
life again with an entirely new outfit.
Being so different physically, the
clothes you wore before the war are
now out of the question. To secure
that' superb, accurate fit which you so
much desire, may we suggest that you
have us measure you, at your early
convenience, so that your new suit and
overcoat, tailored-to-order by Ed. V.
Price & Co., will be right at hand the
day you take off your uniform for
good?
