"The Devil's Double" is a typical
William S. Hart picture, that is, it
has thrills, colorful . atmosphere and
splendid character delineation. Mr.
Hart is cast as "Bowie" Blake, a
brusque, callous-souled faro dealer in
a western town, whose destiny is
shaped the moment Tarleton, a mon
omaniac artist, and his patient wife
arrive at the place. Tarleton, who has
long been looking for a suitable model
for his masterpiece, "Lucifer, Son of
the Morning," recognizes in Blake the
ideal subject he has been seeking.
Blake angrily refuses to humor the
artist, but the lattcr's wife, realizing
that disappointment means her hus
band's death, pleads with Blake, her
goodness and purity affecting him
like magic. Soon after'" "Bowie"
Blake has begun to pose, the doctor
decrees that Tarleton, to preserve his
life, must move to a higher altitude.
Tho "bad man," who has begun to
feel strange emotions since his as
sociation with the first good woman
come into his life, agrees to move al
so, and the odd triangle departs for
the mountains.
But Blake finally loses control of
himself and insults Naomi. Stung at
her scathing denunciation and morti
fied at his own weakness, he sorrow
fully "hits the trail," leaving the
woman alone with her husband in the
mountain cabin. A solitary ride
through the night, however, serves to
readjust his thoughts, and realizing
the peril of Naomi, left with no one
but her. feeble-minded husband, turns
about, resolved to take his medicine.
Blake arrives at the cabin just ai two
desperadoes are casting lotSj for the
possession of Naomi. They nave al
ready shot the unfortunate artist and
I slashed his masterpiece. Blake makes
short work of the two and carries the
senseless woman to a cave in the
mountains.
Fright having affected her mind,
Naomi is like a child, remembering
none of the past. But an accident
finally restores her memory, at which
time Blake, forgetting his good reso
lutions, immediately claims tho girl as
his own. Then Nnomi exerts her pure
womanly influence and thereby helps
the man in the towering battle which
he suddenly realizes must be fought.
Having conquered his passion, Blake
LA GRANDE TO BE JUNGLE
TOWN WHEN AL G. BARNES'
BIG CIRCUS ARRIVES
More Than 1000 Educated Animals in
Circus Stunts.
Imagine over 1000 animals 'n one
assemblage. Imagine' looking into
the cold, cruel basilisk eyes of hun
dreds of the jungle's richest treas
ures. Imagine youself face to face
with these hundreds of lions, tigers,
leopards and others of tho man-eating
beasts. Imagine great herds of ele
phants, caravans of camels, droves of
Hamas, sacred oxen and half 1 hun
dred monkeys. Imagine you hear the
mocking laugh of the vicious hyena
as you turn away from the "cat" ani
mals with a shiver. Then think of the
rare opportunity you have to experi
ence some of the thrills that have led
great men to risk their lives to bring
from all corners of tho earth every
specie of animals known to exist, that
you, and me and all the rest may
know more of nature's great glories.
Then set your alarm clock so as to
get up early Tuesday morning and
hurry yourself along to see the Al G.
Barnes wild animal circus unload its
two trains of these wonderful animals,
make facts of your fancies and see
this great jungle town.
The many hundreds of animals the
Barnes show brings to La Grande are
not mere animals, but are educated to
do more unheard of circus stunts than
you could ever possibly imagined.
Nowhere else in all the world can
there be found sn animal circus that
has the magnitude and merit of this
California show. The winter quar
ters of this wonderful "Canvas City'
and "Jungle Town," is Venice, Cal.
So popular has this circus become as
a field for study of natural history
that school heads are wViting the
management to include their town in
the shows route.- La Grande is fort
unate as only a few hundred cities of
the United States can be covered each
year by this great educational amuse
ment enterprise, fc-aeh year new
routes being scheduled.
Hundreds of the finest and best
educated horse, dogs, goats and other
domestic animals add to the attrac
tions of the 65 feature act program of
the Al G. Barns circus and there are
many human as well as animal
clowns, 150 animal educators and 506
attendants. Much good music and a
big two-mile long parade at 10:30 a
m. Doors open at 1 and 7 p. m
Show date is Tuesday June 26.
