Fairbanks1 Greatest Picture Coming!
"The Three Musketeers,” coming to
the Princess, next Monday and Tues-
day for a two-days’ stay is announced
by Walter Courtney, house manager,
as the most gripping and spectacular
film ever produced by Douglas Fair-
banks.
Based on that universally read clas
sic by Alexander Dumas, “The Three
Musketeers," and added to from the
Memoirs of D’Artagnan, this feature
is said to embody more that is adven-
turous, romantic and dramatic than it
has ever before been possible to in-
corporate in a film vehicle.
The feats of swordsmanship alone
in this picture are said to he worth
the price of admission. Added to tiiat
are a specially arranged prologue and
a musical accompaniment written to
order for thep roduction by Louis
Gottschalk, one of our best contempor
ary composers.
This picture conies to the Princess
following a remarkable run in New
York where it was shown at the Ly-
ric Theatre and given the unanimous
approval of Broadway.

Grimes had just come up North Main
from Spring street. Mr. Gilbert went
to Kelly's store and found the lock
bursted from the door. He entered
into the pitch dark room and saw a
faint glow from a very small light
globe in tlie private office. He quick-

maintaining the graveled streets. It
,s the purpose of the city to continue
the present work of graveling until
all the principal streets are graveled
and after this is done, they will be
maintained. The commission points
out that one of the very costliest
things to the city has been its failure
to main streets .after having put them
in good shape.
The balance of all funds as reported
was $57,481.02. The road and bridge
fund is a little short at this time be-
