NOVEL 11 Y ZAXK GltEY PIC-
Tl KliD OX SCtiUKX
Readers of tho popular Zano Grey
novels aro divided in their verdict
as to which Is his greatest, but un
doubtedly tho first ti. catch the gon
cral public and tin longest 'to re
tain Its vogue is "Riders of tho Pur
ple Sage." Tills book lias just been
pictured by William 1'arnum for tho
Eox Film CorporntI in.
Zane Groy Is a typical American
novelist, who knows his country nnd
characters from pcrscmal experi
ence, and William Earnum is the
film typo of the American plonour,
ranger, rider and nll-'round man
pictured as the hero in this book.
Therefore nobody Intt.restod In real
Americans stories should miss Wm.
Famum In "Rldors of tho Purple
Sago," at the. Sliony thcalro today
and tomorrow.
Lafsiter, central flcuro In Zane
Grey's famous novel, according to
tho -author's own description, is a
big, muscular, . sun-browned man,
wearing clinking silver spurs on
high-heeled bcota and black leather
chaps, against which two black-but
ted guns in low-hanging holsters ar
hard to distinguish.
When Lassftcr "clears for action,"
Iiq "drops his sombri ro, makes a
rapid movement, singular In that It
loaves him snmewlMt crouched, arm.--bent
and stiff, wl'h the big, bleak
gun sncaths swung round to the
fore." No wonder tho "rustlers"
took to the tall sage when Lassite
inlimb3red for action.
Also a comedy and the Ford Week
ly will be shown.
DOCTOR KARKEET
HAS NARROW ESCAPE
Exciting Experience of Dr. Karkeet.
Formerly of Hot Lake Sanatorium
The following from the Oregon Jour
nal will be of local interest inasmuch
as Dr. Karkeet was formerly with the
Hot Lake Sanatorium. The Journa'
says:
Cut off from other escape by flames
eating their way through the upstairs
hall of his home. Dr. Robert H. Kar
keet of 192H Beuhln Vista terrace,
King's Heights, jumped from tho sec
ond story window of his home this
morning with a child under each arm.
Mrs. Karkeet, confused by smoke
and unable to reach the stairs, then
slid down a low roof and dropped, al
most fniting from smoke and fright
into her husband's arms.
The doctor .and his wife were awak
ened by smoke. Mrs. Karkeet attempt
ed to run down the stairs to tho street,
while Karkeet ran to the children's
room through the flames, but before he
could get back with the children, his
way was cut off. Dr. Karkeet grabbed'
a loaded revolver, fired all the shots
with tho hope of arousing the neigh
bors and then jumped out of the win
dow with the children.
The wife had run back, in the mean
time, and climbed from a window to
the coof over the kitchen.
