“ROGUES AND ROMANCE”
AT PALACE TONIGHT
The chief charm of "Rogues and
Romance" is it's setting In a Spain
full of romance and intrigue. The
Interweaving or the two love storkts
and tfc0 suspense which ensues is
Very skilfully handled, and lends it
self easily to the spectacular scenes
Which furnish the "pep" of the
Story. Apart from its love theme
the picture could almost be railed
a comedy, because of its many funny
Situations. The Spanish atmosphere
adds to the general attraction of the
film.
The s*ory of love and romance
always appeals to a large audience.
George B. Seitz, as the young
lover, wins the sympathy of the
audience at the beginning of tlye
picture, and carries it throughout,
and together with June Caprice will
attract innumerable fans.

bishes many of the thrills of the
picture, and plays the part of the
Vankee lover with Just the necessary
“punch,” June Caprice, as the young
American heiress, is a perfect type
of a sweet and Spoiled girl who
iocs not M»ow tar own mind and is

SES$UE WAYAKAWA
COMING TO COLISEUM
j The fame' of New York’s China
town is known the woTld over. Sit

city, it is yet as completely and
typically Chinese in Its environments

It were id the Orient In the blocks
Which comprise its area there is nh
bint of western civilization.
This Chinatown, with its art stores
restaurants. shabby lltttle houses
with painted balconies, laundries, and
gambling dons, reproduced of course,
£' t so faithfully that even one who
ows the original well would be
deceived, is the background for an
episode in VBlaek Roses,” Sessue

The first day out Mr. llreede
killed a grizzly bear, weighing 800
pounds, bringing tile animal down
with three shots. Ho also got a
number of eagles.
Ross man filmed a picture of a
grizzly which was sighted on the
banks of Twin Glacier Lake, from
the camp, using a telephoto lens.
Practically all the pictures were film
ed in natural colors.
Rossman made an extensive study
of bird life. At close range ?;e fflnted
pictures of the habits and charac
teristics of the seagulls feeding tiieir
young and teaching them to swin.
Hashed to a tree, with Ills machine,
he filmed a picture of bald headed
eagle on its nest, iti which were
two eggs, in an adjoining tree. Alter
filming the pictures the eagle was
killed and the eggs taken, to he sent
to the ‘New York Museum, Pictures
were also filmed of eaglets In the
nest.
An exciting time was experienced
when Rossrtfan and his guide went
out on the river to film pictures of
a yeager and its young. The yeager
put up a strong fight anil it was
necessary for the guide to keep an
oar swinging in the air to prevent
the bird from pecking at t lie
faces of the men.
For two days before he left Ross
man filmed pictures of Taku Glac
ier. With his guide lie went within
TOO feet of the face of the glacier
and scaled 40 feet up the cliff on
a side of the ice, taking two ma
chines. He took 4,000 feet of film
[ami obtained some of the most te
j markable pictures of a glacier ever
filmed, he said.
Oil the first day Rossmau waited
I six hours and on tiie second day
I five hours, perched on a precarious
iIndite on the face rtf the mountain to
'obtain pictures of the bergs as they
i broke from the face of the glacier.
One huge berg nearly swamped their
horn and caused a spray which rose

THROUGH RATES
FOR PASSENGER
TRAFFIC FAILS
Steesc Unable to Get Agree
ment Out of White Pass
for Through Passengers.
Discouragement or river passenger
j travel below llawson on the Yukon
River is Indicated In a statement
I made by Col. Janies (I. Steesc. Chair
I man of the Alaskan Hngineei'ing
i Commission, in charge of the opera
.lion of the Alaska Railroad. "While
■the Alaska Railroad lias a through
I traffic agreement with the White
i l’ass Route covering freight ship
ments from Seatttle over the rail
road to Nenana, and thence * by
river boat to points on the Yukon
River between Ft. Gibbon and Fa
gle, it has been unable to arrange
for through passenger service," said
|C’ol. Stee.se.
This situation exists despite the
fact that there is maintained a
boat service between Whitehorse,
Dawson. Ft. Gibbon and Nenana. us
I the operating* head of the Alaska
Railroad pointed out. This year
some 13,000 tons of sliver ore from
the Mayo district In Yukon Terri
tory is being delivered by these
boats to the railroad at Nenana for
shipment to Slates' smellers via
I Seward and ocean vessels.
In addition. Col. Steesc drew at
tention In the fact that the railroad
itself is operating a weekly river
boat service In both directions be
(ween Nenana and St. Michael. The
two lilies of river steamers, he said,
“makes it possible for anyone so
desiring to make a through trip via
Skagway, Whitehorse, Dawson, Ft.
Gibbon. Nenana and Seward with
out difficulty or undue delay, with
only two transfer points—Dawson
and Nenana."
A similar situation existed during
the river navigation season of 1022.
I Late last summer, Col. Frederick
IMears. then head of the railroad,
'announced that he hud received in-i
|formation that persons applying at!
White Pass offices in Dawson and
elsewhere for routing down-river to ■
Nenana and over tin- railroad had j
been discouraged and In some in
stances misinformed as to the status j
of the railroad's operations. The same
tactics are alleged to lie in use thi3
season, according to reports of per !
sons who have made the trip tc
face of this dlshcouragenvent.
