DOUGLAS FAIRBANKS, Frank
Keenan and Enid Markey form
the trio of Triangle stars who
furnish admirable entertainment on the
week-end Columbia Theater ' pro
gramme. True, Fairbanks was among
the missing for a part of yesterday,
when censorship viewers suffered a
lapse in their sense of humor and
viewed the comedy from an ultra
serious standpoint, but the Appeal
Board righted things, and "The Mys
tery of the Leaping Fish" was the
comedy headliner last night.
"The Phantom," the detective drama,
which presents Frank Keenun and Enid
Markey as co-stars, is one of the bust
Offerings of the character seen here
In weeks. The acting is splendid,
settings are artistic, while an unex
pected climax gives a punch to the
play that startles one for a. moment.
"Phantom" Farrell, gentleman crook,
is invited by the police to leave town,
and with his henchman, a detective's
card, and a wardrobe of society togs,
invades the home of Millionaire Bere
ton to steal a pearl necklace. Farrell
becomes Interested in Alice Bereton,
runs into a plot to force the girl's
brother to steal the jewels, and saves
the trinkets for their proper owner.
He saves his own skin right under the
noses of the officers by flashing a se
cret service badge, and master crook
and man make a clean getaway.
Douglas Fairbanks is Coke Enny
day, a scientific detective of wondrous
guises and an addiction for "hop,"-in
"The Mystery of the Leaping Fish." a
travesty on a certain species of fiction
detective. Coke invades the seashore,
runs down an opium gang, and wins
a bride, who happens to be the fish
blower (Bessie Love). The perform
ances of Fairbanks under the influ
ence of the hop, and the paraphernalia
with which -he surrounds himself, fur
nish material for much laughter.
husband, the 'victim of his misdeeds,
commits suicide. The wife ie accused
of the crime, for she had often ex
pressed a wish that she might be rid
of the incumbrance, but is finally ac
quitted and finds happiness with the
sweetheart of her maturer years.
The sad plight of a lover who has a
reputation for proposing to every pret
ty girl he meets is depicted in "They
Woirran't Take Him Serioutsly." Jimmie
O'Day, the victim of his own volatile
spirits, after wandering through life
on a joy bubble, finally meets the one
girl. He proposes. She is flattered
until friends laughingly tell of Jim
my's other affairs, and then she is
hurt. The boy is administered a se
vere lesson before he finally brushes
aside all opposition and convinces the
girl and their friends that for once he
is in earnest.
Pickford.
"Pasquale." George Beban's wonder
ful character photodrama falls little
.hort of being a motion-picture classic.
Beban is ever a master of Italian char
acter delineation, but in "Pasquale" he
exceeds the fondest expectations, pre
senting a delightful picture of a loving,
self-sacrificing son of Italy which can
not but please.
Of course the story has much to do
with Beban's success, for it revels in
sympathy and pathos. Then, to please
those not satisfied with the more
homely or lowly drama, the shell
scarred trenches of the Italian-Austrian
front are injected, with a faith
less wife subplot, climaxed by a
thrilling auto accident.
The psychology of man's love for
dumb animals is a potent factor in
the appeal of "Pasquale." The Italian
grocer and his white .horse are respon
sible for not a few blurred eyes.
In brief. the story follows this
course: Pasquale is an Italian-born
American, a small grocer and happy
in the love he bears his ward and the
affection he bestows on his horse.
Pasquale's dream of happiness is shat
tered when the girl marries a sport of
the town. The grocer and the banker,
both on the Italian reserve list, are
called to the colors, go to Europe and
return wounded. Pasquale finds his
business gone to ruin and the girl un
happy in her married life. The banker
finds his wife untrue and ready to
elope with another. An auto accident,
realistic in the extreme, relieves the
situation of the two destructive char
acters, paving the way to joy for the
ex-soldiers.
Helen Eddy as Pasquale's ward and
Myrtle Stedman, as the banker's wife,
give convincing characterizations. In
fact, while Beban is the outstanding
figure of the production, there is no
monopolizing of the spotlight; all have
roles of prominence.
Selig-Tribune news events form an
Interesting addition to the bill.
Majestic.
In "Caprice of the Mountains," the
William Fox feature at the Majestic
Theater, fandom has an opportunity
to witness a contrast in debuts, which
is probably unique in the annals of
filmdoro. Two premieres are made
one at 18 and the other at 80.
June Caprice is the youngster; Sara
Alexander, the aged one.
Miss Alexander, who was playing
with dolls when Andrew Jackson sat
in the White House, has the character
roie of Aunt Susan in the picture. Un
questionably she is one of the oldest
actresses in the world who ever reg
istered for the screen.
But, unlike Miss Caprice, the Aunt
Susan of the play is not making her
first public appearance in the picture.
Miss Alexander, a former member of
the household of Brigham Young, the
Mormon, has had a long and varied
experience on the speaking stage, play
ing with many of the most prominent
interpreters of the drama.
Charlie Chaplin, the king of comed
ians, and the highest priced salaried
man in the world, appears in a some
what different role in "The Vagabond."
He is still the Inimitable one of the
funny mustache, feet and ever busy
cane, but in addition to these per
quisites Charlie adds a violin. In pri
vate life Chaplin is a musician of no
mean ability and the violin is his fa
vorite instrument. So for the first time
he introduces it into pictures.
Another feature of the two-reel Mu
tual is the injection of an unusual
amount of real acting. The slapstick
is there in sufficient quantities to
please those who admire Chaplin most
for that, while he shows that his acting
is not confined to that brand of entertainment.
The 20th century enigma man or
manikin has puzzled the world.
Can you solve it?

Heilig.
Lillian Walker, star of the splendid
comedy-drama. "Green Stockings,"
which delighted theatergoers last week,
is the heroine of the latest Heilig
photodramatic offering, "The Ordeal of
Elizabeth. " A two-reel comedy, "They
Wouldn't Take Him Seriously," with
Herbert Rawlinson as the featured
player, and the Animated Weekly of
current events, are other interesting
features of a well-balanced programme.
Mies Walker is presented as a charm
ing little country girl in "The Ordeal
of Elizabeth." Secluded-on a farm, she
falls easy prey to suddenly awakened
interest, which she believes is love,
and marries a roving artist. He re
turns to the city, forgetting his rural
bride, and the girl mourns. Later she
goes to the city and then the real love
affair of her life enters.
Barred from mariage with the man
she loves, the girl is reconciled to a
life of solitude, when the worthless
Peoples.
Louise Huff, the lass who made such
a hit in "The Old Homestead" as the
sweetheart of Creighton Hale, makes
her debut as a real Paramount star
in "Destiny's Toy," which opened a
three-day engagement at the Peoples
Theater. While the story does not pre
sent a brand new plot, it touches a
chord of romantic appeal, while the
twists and turns of the action under
skillful hands make it intensely inter
esting. Miss Huff is presented as a found
ling, a child of the waves, rescued by
a bachelor fisherman who tries to
bring her up as other girls. A banker
sends his wife and child abroad, and
the steamer goes down in a severe
storm. The father believes the child
drowned, but she is rescued by the
fisherman, who displays a heroism that
thrills in risking his life among the
oreaKers.
Brought up amid a solitary environ
ment, the girl is as innocent of the
ways of the world at 20 as an average
child of 10 years. On the death of
her protector she goes to the city, act
ing on a vague Impulse. Here she falls
into the hands of a gang of thieves,
who dress her in shabby masculine at
tire and compel her to act as a sort of
Oliver Twist, entering houses by rear
windows to open the doors to the men
in wait outside.
In one of these desperate trips her
confederate shoots the butier and is
sent to prison for life. Nan. the girl,
is taken into the household without
anyone suspecting h,er identity. Later,
when the convict, escaping and vowing
vengeance on the girl for her supposed
instrumentality in sending him to
prison, shoots he', her real identity as
the daughter of the rich banker in
whose house she is living becomes re
vealed. A peculiar mark on her arm,
caused from the scar of a letter seal,
brings happiness to the waif.
Paramount Pictographs and a Bray
cartoon comedy, presenting Colonel
Heeza Liar, are other subjects on an
interesting programme.

of Edith, acquired the beast in Haiti
from a sailor on a Danish vessel. Some

expert on canine varieties, our best
guess is that Miss Storey has secured

famous by Lewis Carroll, of "Alice in

Frank Wilson Seeks to ltecover Dam
ages From J. R. Leatherman.
The .personal injury suit for $5000
brought by Frank Wilson, teamster,
against J. R Leatherman was turned
over to a jury in Circuit Judge Mor
row's court late yesterday. The suit
had occupied practically two days.
Wilson maintains that he was run
over by Mr. Leatherman's automobile
while he was attempting to board a
streetcar. He says the automobile was
going at a high rate of speed, and that
it attempted to pass on the right side
of the car while the latter was taking
on passengers.
Mr. Leatherman declares that Wilson
ran in front of his car.

Who Are Now at Border.
Fathers of the boys who enlisted in
the machine gun company of the Third
Oregon Infantry, and who are now at
the Mexican border, will meet in the'
office of C. F. Hendricksen. whose
young son enlisted. tonight at 8
o'clock in the Scandinavian-American
Bank building, to initiate some action
to bring the boys under 18 years of age
back to Portland before the opening of
the Fall term of school.
For several days, Mr. Hendricksen
has been making inquiries as to the
best methods to pursue. He has been
told by many other fathers that the
boys who have not yet finished their
high school education should be re
turned so that their attendance at Jef
ferson High School, where they were
students before their departure for
Mexico, will be assured.
"There is no animus exhibited against
any one because the boys were tnVrn
when so young." said Mr. Hendricksen. .
yesieraay. "We only wish to get our
boys back to Portland so that they at
least may finish their high school ed
ucation. If they are allowed to stay
in Mexico or in the service of the Gov
ernment any other place for a year or
two it Is most probable that their edu
cation will never be thought of again."
There are between 35 and 40 boys
from Jefferson High School who are
members of the machine gun company
now at the border. Just how many of
them are under the 18 years of age at
this time cannot be determined.
Mr. Hendricksen has been in com
munication with members of Congress
at Washington and it i3 his opinion that
it will not be difficult to have the boys
under 18 years of age discharged. More
difficulty will be experienced, it is be
lieved, if an effort is made to have boys
over 18 years of age discharged.
Section 27 of the act of Congress of
June 3 stipulates that a written consent
must be obtained from the parent or
guardian before the boy is allowed to
be enlisted in the Federal service. Be
tween the ages of 18 and 35 no written
consent is needed.
Halvor Steenerson. a member of Con
gress from Minnesota, has wired Mr.
Hendricksen that evidence of the boy's
age should be placed before the com
manding officer. If a discharge is not
granted. Mr. Steenerson advises Mr.
Hendricksen to get a writ of habeas
corpus and that the boy will then have
to be discharged.
