The story of "Abie's Irish Kopp"
in brief, has to do with Abe Le

while overseas with Rosemary

turned home and are surreptiti

If you have been to war and

One was Charles Farrell, the oth

"Finger Prints" the Warner
Hros. production which comes to
the Holywood theater today and
Monday is founded upon a crime
story by Arthur Semers Roche. It
deals with a band of criminals
who have stolen $5,000,000 from
a bank. The leaders of the gang
are arrested and convicted, but
the money is not recovered. It
Is hidden in a house far off in the
country.
The one man who knows the
hiding place is in prison and it is
upon h!m that the detective oper
ate in order to get information.'
They learn enough to get to the
right house. But when they are
there the mystery thickens. It is
mystery liberally sprinkled with
comedy, and. while the backbone
of the story is straight melodrama
of unexepected thrills, its flesh
and blood is laughter.
Louise Fazenda is the star, ap
pearing as a girl detective, who
disguised as a stupid servant, gets
into the house of mystery. In her
disguise Miss Fazenda returns to
the type of comedy role in which
she first won fame.
Featured in the supporting cast
aro John T. Murray, the vaude
ville headliner who scored a big
hit in p'ctures when he played the
comedy role In "Bardelys the Mag
nifneent," and Helen Costello, the
dark-haired sister ot the blonde
Dolores.

from bullets as he flees from a

her foot !n a stirrup and left her

flying hoofs.
Gordon saves her in spite of her
fight to escape him because she
believes he's a bandit and the-pur-uers
are a sheriffs posse.
After she has had. time to thlnV
