The man was described iliy traveling companions as William (n.van, an official of the bricklayeia' tinion. County officials are puzzled oer the case. Authorities tonight fal'el to determine whether the death of the Denver man was due to an accident, which is the version given bv persons who accompanied him, or whether he was robbed and beatri I into unconsciousness, resulting in 1 death from a fracture of the skuil.

the dominant note, is the Dasic theme of the play. It Is In "Irish Eyes" that the Poll Playera are to appear all this week at the Palace. And with them as guest star is Bernard Daly, who possesses an excellent tenor voice as well as being an exceptional actor. And In connection with the action of the play, Mr. Daly will sing six superb numbers: "That Old Irish Mother of Mine," "The Song- of The Dove." "Judy," "Little Town In the Old County Down." "Machuslla," and "Tho Call of the Wind." The three actions deal with a fishing village on the south coast of Ireland whiie the prologue and epilogue have to do with a New Yoik apartment on Riverside drive.

Van Muren. The Palace Orchestra will have a special program in keeping with the theme of this mufcieal melodrama. PRINCESS. "You made me what I am to day" Thus Phyllis Haver sings the song ehe used to play not so long ago when the tapped, the Ivories to the tune of J25 a week. That was when she played the role of "orchestra" In a nickeiodean, but she uj an" left the theater flat and presented the world with one of its most pulchritudinous bathing beauties.

Having garned all the laurels that a mere beauty can win, she forsook the comedy field and today she Is proving herself an actress of no mean ability in comedy and dramatic roles. She plays the Important part of Marlen Eldrldge in "Single Wives," the First National picture to be shown at the Princess Theater for the entire week. "Single Wives" co-features Corinne Orifflth and Milton Sills. Others in the cast are Kathryn Williams, Lou Tcllegen, Henry B. Walthall, Phillips Smalley, Jere Austin and John Patrick.

The Princess Theater Orchestra under Jhe leadership of Charles Bostick has an interesting musical program for the week. CAPITOL. "Wanderer of the Wasteland," the picture feature at the Capitol for this first half of the week, is a superb story of desert adventure.

It was adapted from Zane Grey's well-known story and marks a radical advance In photoplay production in view of the tact that the picture was photographed entirely in color, something heretofore never attempted in full-length feature. Aside from Its novelty, the pitcure proves conclusively that ilored photography, the philosopher's store of the motion picture world, has at last been perfected for practical purposes Zane Gray has reason to fee! grateful to Irvin WHiat, who directed the pitcure. Mr. Willat left nothing undone thnt would insure a de-luxe production. The actual scenes mentioned In Mr.

Giey's book the mountain and desert country of Arizona and Death Valley, California were used as backgrounds for the svviftly-movlng story. 9 A well-nigh perfect cast was picked to Interpm the various roles. Jack Holt makes an idea! hero, Millie DoVe Is a vision of loveliness, Noah Berry is a "desert- rat" ar.d Kathlyn Williams ha. a fine role. The Arnaut Brothers are fiddling, histling, gymnastic clowns, and they are clever performers, one of their best stunts being some somersaults while playing, not a note being missed in the turn.

Sailor Jim hlte has some amazing feats of strength. Senna, and Weber are singing nnd dancing comedians, Freda and Anthony mingle with their Italian comedy, the Melroy Sisters are pretty and clever singers and steppers, and Lady Alice's PeU are performing rats, cats and dogs.

BOND ROOF GARDEN. Accompanying the reluctance with which one realizes that summer days are limited comes an eagerness to crowd the best times of the summer Into theje few remaining days. No matter how tastes In music, menus or service may differ, eac't gueft may always be certain of having a "best time" at the. Hotel Bond roof garden, for here no Is overlooked which may Incrcaso the pleasure or happiness of I's patrons. Hunt Strains Hark.

The production of "Tho Arab," which Is featured nil this week on the opening bill, is indeed a wonderful one. 'The Arab," the Hex Ingram production for Metio, is hailed as a worthy successor to Ingram's last triumph, "Scara-mouche." It is a colorful and thrilling story of love and adventure In the land of the aheiks, adapted from Edgar Selwyn's stage play. Mr. Ingram, In planning the plc- ttire, decided to go fo northern Afri ca to get the correct atmospnere nu the natural background. Ha took his company abroad and fou months among the native tribes and in the streets and old houses of Tunis; it was the first time any American company ever made a plct'ji'o in this vicinity.

Ramon Novarro and Alice Terry again have the chief roles In Ingram's newest film, and this lime they appear as a handsome young Bedouin and the daughter of an American missionary. The remainder of tho players were chosen from famous continental actors and the mobs Include thousands of Arab and Berber tribesmen. As the Arab, Novarro has score-c the greatest success of his career. He plays Jumll Abdullah Azam, son of the shirk of El-Khyrossa, an aged ruler of a large Medouin tribe. The augmented Majestic Orchestra, under the direction of Henri Tussen-broek, Is featuring as the overture, "Marehe Orientals.

This production contains the head-appealing story of the ba'oy that wasn't wanted and tho author has vigorously wielded her pen In defense of the orphans of the divorce courts. A thrilling and powerful play Is this story of the Innocents, with an unusual and different theme.

It comes here under the moat auspicious circumstances, with a beautiful production and a highly skilled company of plnyors. There will be a matinee dully reserved for women at which r- formance a special lecture will be given.

Kaufman end Edna Ferber at Parsons' Theater for three days beginning next Thursday, with matinee Saturday, entitled "Old Man Minlck." In which O. P. the noted character actor, will be tho featured player. Old Man Is a delicate comedy of American life its scenes ticcur in Chicago compact with flavorable humor and incisive characterization.

Layers of lively satire have been provided, doubtless by the Kaufman of the authorial combination, while It Is perhaps talr tu assume that Miss Ferber has been responsible for many of the homely, lifelike phases such as alwavs have been liberally sprinkled through her novels. The story Is that of an old man left a widower, and In his lonliness corning to live with his son and diush-ler-ln-law In their five Chicago apartment. Ills advent has a icidlly understood but nevertheless upsetting effect upon the household. The old man, loquatious and Inquisitive after Lie manner of old men, though always good natured, and in many respects distinctly lovable, spoils a meeting of a woman's society oi which daughter-in-law Is president, discloses a carefully guarded business secret, nearly separates a loving couple, nnd In various laughable and surprising ways demonstrates the old axiom that the square peg never fits In the round hole. Through the telling of the simple story, the action remains always close to the heart and understanding.

For that reason laughter springs easily and whole-s uiielv. witli now and again a I moment of tender reflectiveness. The play has been produced by Mr. WHO llie owne oiuunift atillitv and thorough attention to detail that invariably characterizes hit presentations. In addition to Heggie.

whose portrait of the old man Is a notable contribution to the gallery of similar creations with which he hv liiaced our theater, the cast is a noteworthy one comprising Phyllis l'ovnli, Antoinette. Perry. Frederic Ihirt. Sydney Rooth, Ralph Hunker. Myra Hampton.

Arthur Rogers, of No. 338 Trumbull street, was struck yesterday on Front street by an automobile driven by Liieian Nowlnski of Wnlllngford. Rogers was taken to police headquarters, whore he was attended by Dr.

Morris Wlneck assistant police surgeon. He was later taken to the Municipal Hospital, a left leg may Only $1.50 was found In the pockets I of the victim. Ryan, described as about 55 years old. was traveling In a smoking com-i pnrtment with several companions. He was on his way ro a traao union convention at Saratoga Springs.

The party was carried In Fullmans, which were attached to the limited at Ch'-cago. There were more than I no delegates In the group, all bricklayers on their way to the labor meeting. According to the story of members of the delegation, Ryan met with accident after the train left Cleveland at 3:08 this morning. One version of the fatality la that a sudden Jerk of the train knocked Ryan off ha balance, causing him to cruh through a window of compartment Into the hallway of the car. Ryan, It was said, was subject lo locomotor ataxia and was not firm on his feet.

None of the delegates would admit they had witnessed the accident. Some of them hinted Ryan might have been the victim of a tight or an nttack by enemies of long standing. This, however, was 'purely conjecture. Ryan was supposed to have at least fSOO on his iperson but that fart that only $1.60 was found In his pockets added to the puzzle confronting the authorities. The body of Ryan was shipped 1aek to Denver late today after the roroner's office decided that the cause of death was a fracture of the skull, caused by a fall.

Associates of Ryan who accompanied the body to a hospital and then to the morgue continued their Journey to Saratoga Springs late this but in view of the conflicting statements as to the circumstances of the man's death It was thought likely the bricklayer's union in convention at Saratoga Springs would order an investigation.
