This makes the fourth from Mr. Zarrow's string i - of high class musical comedies to visit Fairmont this season. All have given the best satisfaction and It is claimed that the "American Beauty" organization la even baiter than Its predecessors. For all the good things 11. D. has done for the Fairmont amusement seeking public we are duly thankful } ': and are glad that he Is sending us more. | Although the plot of "On Dangerous i Ground," the Grand's feature for today. deals with the European war. It is wrlttten In lighter vein than most EH. _ , dramas with that tragic setting. It pictures the adventures of young K , American doctor, caught In the wael-j t; atrom of the war, who Is overwhelmed i.: at having a beautiful stranger cast ? , herself Into his arms at a Get man hotel and lnslsf that she' is his wife. When they are alono, she explains teat she is an Alsatian with valuable papers for Intr1. ?Lne rrencn guvcrTrniem an : sno promis with him to get her i.ui o, u. uimny under his passport. The young American has fallen In lovo at tirst sight anil 1 readily consents to help her In her mlBslon for her country; this promise , leads him through a series of narrow escapes ..which are enlivened by. comody la the form of the complications , arising through hlB ambiguous position as the lady's husband. The girl Is fl- , nally taken prisoner by the Germans, , <i but Is released by an obliging anil son- ( tlmental officer to be rounlted In a hos- , i fj pltal scene with her pseutlo husband | I but very real lover. j Gall Kane plays the part of the girl epy and was none the less efficient and determined for looking exceedingly charming. Carlyle Blackwell Is the handsome j though rather bewildered young American who protocts Ills little comrade | through her wild adventure with the energy that is characteristic of such j , young Americau3 abroad. Tho local color of the warring countries Is fair-, ly well suggested in the sets, although | 1 the oficers of both sides wear a curl-! ' ous assortment of uniforms that are j' I apparently struggling to oe neutra.. Every magazine reader knows the 11 wonderful stories published forbears : In the widely-known monthly,' "The Blaok Cat." H. B. Unibstaetter, the i editor who made "The Black Cat" fa-, mous, was a wonderful genius. Ills' judgment of queer, mysterious stories j! ? fascinating thought ? provoking, stimulating ? was unerring. Every story chosen by Mr. Umbstaetter was ! absolutely unusual in plot, teemed with ; genuine interest, bubbled over with ' life, humor, romance and action. The ! author received as high as a dollar a :' word for these stories. Mr. Spoor selected one hundred of j ' the very best, the cream of the entire I' g t collection and is making them into tea- j tures that are wonders. ? These are now a part of the Xel-;. g I son's program one day a week, "The i I ., Finis n,- oemg me ucie 01 mq one |_ shown today. It is in two reels and , Ernest Maupln and Mabel Bardine are cast In the leading roles. ! IThe Roseland Maids will put on a new bill at the Hippodrome today.1 There will be plenty of comedy In It j' and the chorus will appear In entirely j1 different singing and dancing num-' bers. Several specialty acta are on the program. Sol Burka went to Pittsburgh yester- j day to lend his valuable assistance to Bob McCoy, who preceded him to the] Smoky town. These live amusement managers are pulling off some big stuff \ In the interest o? the Mountain City Amusement Company, the result of which will be shared by patrons of the' Grand, the Hippodrome, and the Dixie at Mannlngton. In a very brief period Charles Fang, 1 the Chinese actor who plays the part 1 of Wee See in Metro's serial, "The Great Secret," a weekly feature at the j Princess, In which Francis X. Bush-J' man and Beverly Bayne are co-stars, has become recognized as the very. )) ucov OAyuacill VI icai cuiiiudc Liiaiuv I tern on the American stnge. -)" Fang became an actor by acci:!ent.j .> He was born in Canton, China, and | comes of a well-to-do Chinese family ' He was taken to San Francisco when 11 a child, and remained there until lie; 1 H i shipped aboard the Olympia.
