Peal upon peal of hearty laughter rang through the theatre continuous from the start of "The Girl in the Limousine" until its smashing finish. It is truly one of the greatest of farce comedies and the royal Stock Co. more than made good again. Miss Elliott and Rodney Hindebrand and the others of the company were par excellence in their parts, and kept the audience in a continuous uproar. In fact, it was fun night in all of its glory—Bull Montana starting the fireworks with his antics in "The Two Twins" and Jack Hoxie continuing it in "Men in the Raw," the feature picture being shown in conjunction with the stock company's presentation of "The Girl in the Limousine" which capped the climax of an hilarious night. "Men in the Ray" is a story of laughs, thrills, and romance intertwined with gasps. It jumps from breath-taking feats such as bulldogging a wild steer or a gnational leap over a cliff, to the darling feat of throwing a live steer into space. For every shiver, theres a snicker, and the charming love story that threads its way thru the plot is a pleasing relief. Hoxie stages a thrilling battle under water, with the villain following a chase across a river and an encounter in mid-stream. He rescues Marguerite Clayton from petil by bull-dogging a steer, and to remarkably did the camera catch this episode that every expression of both Hoxie and his heroine are registered during the daring feat, which apparently was performed by Hoxie personally and without the usual use of a "double," impossible in "close-ups" such as are shown in the present play. Besides these scenes, there is a mad dash for liberty, over snow, and other gripping actions which keep his audiences on edge. The same program will be shown again tonight and tomorrow night and it behooves you who like a big triple laughter bill to come early as the house was packed and about a hundred or so turned away last night.

Chaplin's First Photo Drama at California Scene from "A Woman of Paris" Written and Directed by Charles Chaplin RIPLE HANGING AT SAN QUENTIN SAN QUENTIN, Feb. 11—Unless a court order intervenes, three men will be hanged simultaneously at the state prison here on April 18, for the first time in the history of the institution. The triple execution, if carried out, according to present orders, will be over the protests of Warren James A. Johnston, who decries that prison execution facilities will be taxed beyond capacity. The three men sentenced to death are all from Los Angeles and all are to pay the penalty for killing police officers. They were made by Manager Iagram, who at great cost procured for presentation this remarkable photoplay; the first cinematic contribution produced by the great genius of the screen—Charles Chaplin. "A Woman of Paris," written and directed by Chaplin, marks a new departure in almost every element that goes to make up a movie. EXPECTED HAPPENS The expected happened yesterday at Ascot. Ralph DePalma won both the feature races at the new speedway in his Miller "special." He also broke his own track record for one lap, driving it in 31 seconds flat. There were no serious accidents. In the sweepstakes DePalma led from the end of the first lap to the conclusion. His time was 11:01. Ruth Law, the noted aviatrix, handed him his prize. Gus Shrader was second in his Mals "special" and Eddie Mayer third in his Rajo "special." Fred Horey, in his Frontenac, AGAIN THREATEN NEW YORK BOX By DAVIS J. WAIT (I. N. S.

The Most Centrally Located Ground Floor Office In Anaheim AGAIN THREATEN NEW YORK BOXING By DAVIS J. WALSH (I. N. S. Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Feb. 11—Doleful suspicions were being circulated today to the effect that legalized boxing in New York would be returned to its precarious condition of a few weeks ago unless William Muldoon decide to pocket his pride and serve on the boxing commission as an ordinary member without special distinction or privilege. It was Muldoon's that as well as that of everyone outside of the pale of politics that the so-called "zordid man" of boxing would be named chairman of the commission upon his reappointment by the governor. He was not. The fear, therefore, is general that Muldoon will again resign his post and the fact that he has gone into silence on the matter in question has served to strengthen this suspicion. His proponents are splitting no infinitives in saying that if Muldon goes out, boxing will follow, ultimately. Asked today at his home in Poughkeepsie, N. Y., as to what action, if any, he contemplated, Muldoon merely said: "I do not care to discuss the matter at this time except to say that I naturally was surprised and disappointed by the failure of the commission to elect me its chairman." George W. Brower, a democrat, was the man elected. He was nominated by James Farley, another Democrat and seconded by himself. Muldoon, observing this manner, did not vote. Those who fear for the future of boxing base their opinion on the belief that Brower lacks the experience in boxing necessary to conduct that difficult sport on lines of security. It is Brower's sincere hope that George W. Brower, a democrat, was the man elected. He was nominated by James Farley, another Democrat and seconded by himself. Muldoon, observing this manner, did not vote. Those who fear for the future of boxing base their opinion on the belief that Brower lacks the experience in boxing necessary to conduct that difficult sport on lines of security. It is Brower's sincere hope that he can persuade Muldoon to remain on the commission and has gone up record to the effect that harmony within the ranks of the body is to be his watchword. With professional football players getting as much as $300 a game, there is a great opportunity for any broad-shouldered young man to go to college and get something worth while out of it.
