Such is the testimony of reviewers who have seen "The Redeeming Sin," Vitagraph production, which comes to the United theatre Sunday for a two-day's engagement.

Miller, Otis Harlan, Rosita Marstini, Rose Taypley, Eric Mayne and Violet Virginia.

Slickers, leather coats, umbrellas and overshoes got a headplay as the qualifying round started in a steady drizzle. The slow course and heat wind gave the long hitters tremendous advantage. Miss Hollins and Miss Louise Fordyce, Youngstown, Ohio, hit a long bounce and seem afraid neither of the elements nor of the slow course. California's strongest representative, Miss Mary K. Browne, Los Angeles, is suffering from slight cold. Mrs. C.

Jimmy Slattery of Buffalo may be able, as he says he is, to slap the taste from the mouth of M. Jacques Chapeldelaine, who appears more briefly under the nom de sock, Jack Delaney, but those with more than a passing interest in the fighters' second meeting tomorrow night at Madison Square Garden seemed not so sure of it today. Slattery's speed, his clever defense and his ability to slip around gave him the edge in their previous meeting and when this match was made, these things were remembered by those who looked for Slattery to repeat in six rounds. The immature years of the boy from Buffalo preclude a longer match. The sharp-shooters today were inclined to give more than a glance to Mr. Delaney.

Five classy acts, all of big time stuff, and lovers of good vaudeville will enjoy this show. Something new and novel is offered in "Richardson's Posing Dogs," an act of almost super-canine intelligence. It has taken Mr. Richardson many years to have these dogs present their specialty. Al Patterson, "Entertainer," presents a very versatile offering of songs, talk and music in a manner that will please. The McLeods, a family of four, offer "A Family Affair in Black and White," a pot pourl of chatter, song and dances. It is one of the most infectious bits of entertainment of the season, every member of the family being an artist worthy of being featured alone and their combined efforts cannot but have a most pleasant effect. Frank Evans, "The Soap Saleman," gives the trials and tribulations of a house-to-house solicitor. The act is chuck full of laughs and humor with a number of surprising comedy situations that you will surely enjoy. "The Venetian Four," in a "Night in Venice," is easily the feature act of this all star bill and has a very pretty and artistic offering in their Musical Melange. These singers of sunny Italy are master musicians and their offering is enhanced by accompaniment on the harp. A highly entertaining little feature, starring popular Shirley Mason, the William Fox star, will be shown Friday only as the California. The attraction will be "The Great Diamond Mystery," which, as the title indicates, involves a crime, two crimes, in fact, one being the theft of a great diamond, and the other the murder of a diamond broker. In this picture, Shirley Mason playing the role of Ruth Winton, author of a murder mystery story, is enabled to solve an actual mystery by putting into a test the theory that a murderer always returns to the scene of his crime. Hni was in power. "We are responsible only for our own government." Churchill replied. He said that during the Paris conference the Italian representative told how Italy desired "early conversation regarding the debt to Great Britain."

He has great hopes of locating a "royal road to rescue," he said. DONE BROWN BROWN testimony presented in court, agreed to "take a dive" for Tony Fuente, alleged Mexican champion, for some $5000. The joke is on the promoters who figured they had to bribe Fulton to make the fight a sure thing for Tony. Anybody with a mean look and a meaner sock can make Fulton lay down adroitly and permanently. Twenty-five years from now when Fulton's name is recalled the visions that will come before the old fans will not be of Fred fighting but of Fred flopping—or crawling out of the ring. Figures regarding the income from athletics at Yale for 1923 have just been issued. The 1924 statistics aren't available as yet. Yale must have an efficiency man in its accounting department.
