THE MAUI NEWS, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 25, 1918.
SIX
j AT THE THEATERS
"La Tosca"
The period of the play is enrly in
the last century. "La Tosea" is intro
duced as a beautiful, light hearted
Italian woman surrounding hy admir
ers, courted hy everyo'ie for her art
istic ability, and lovlns the painter,
Mario Cuvarndossi, with all the ardor
of her Latin temperament. Life for
the pinger is only another word fot
happiness. Suddenly she finds that
Mario and .she are in prosit dancer.
The painter has helped Anuelotti, ii
political prisoner, to escape, and Har
on Sciapa. the dreaded t hief of l'olice
is aware of the fact. Events hein
to move swiftly. The sinner and
Mario are arrested, and Tosca is forc
ed to listen to the r roans of her tor
tured lover until she reveals the hid
ing place of I'avaradossi. The pris
oner swallows poison and dies, and
Mario is thrown into a cell.
l'leased with his work Scraps dines
at case, and sends foi the singer.
There is one way to save her lover's
life. If she will agree the Chief of
l'olice will arrangt for Mario's escape,
lie will order him shot, but the guns
will contain no bullets, and after the
soldiers are gone the lovers can leave
Italy. Tosca cements to give her
honor in exchange for the safe con
duct that will save the man she loves.
As Scrapa turns to write the docu
ment the desperate woman catches
sight of a knife on the table. The
first embrace of the beastly Chief of
l'olice nerves her arm, and she buries
the blade in his heart. Snatcning the
paper from his nerveless ringers, Tos
ca turns to flee.
Arriving at the prison she shows
her safe conduct to the officer in
charge and is admitted. Mario is led
out to execution. Tosca waits in an
angle of the wall. The volley is fired.
The singer rushes to her lover, and
bends over him. lie does not move,
and there is blood on his breast.
Scrapa has tricked her. Mario is
dead. The agonized woman throws
herself from the parapet of the prison.
Edward Jose directed the produc
tion. It is mounted with splendid
effect, and its artistic merits of scene
costuming, and general ensemble are
of a high order. Pauline Frederick
plays Tosca with a just appreciation
of her varying moods, and shows con
siderable tragic force. Frank Losce
is a polished but vividly repulsive
Baron Scrapa. Jules ltaucourt as
Mario, Henry Herbert as Angelotti.
and V. II. Forestelle as Spoletti give
well considered characterizations. The
camera work hy Ned Van Huron is in
keeping with its importance to the
artistic result.
Dorothy Dalton in
"Love Me"
"Love Me," a five-part Paramount
Production, supervised by Thomas 11.
Ince, is a careful working over of well
tried material. As Maida Madison, a
western girl, who marries a wealthy
young chap from the east, Dorothy
Dalton plays an unsophisticated young
wife who is sorely tried by her hus
band's family, until she saves her
sister-in-law from disgrace at the risk
of her own reputation.
"Love Me" makes a novel start. It
opens in a western mining town, and
the heroine is introduced as a civil
engineer in charge of construction.
Clad in a mannish, but becoming, get
up, Maida Madison is bossing the job
to every one's satisfaction when Gor
don Appleby, a member of an exclu
give Philadelphia family arrives from
the east. He also is an engineer, and
his admiration for his fellow-worker
ripens into love. The two are married
and returns to Philadelphia. Here
the ljieezv style of th" young wife
shocks her new relatives, and they
betray themselves as a set of snobs.
Gordons stands by his wife, however,
and she wins them all over by making
the above-mentioned rescue of the
family honor.
Dorthoy Dalton is hardly the type
for so ingenious a herione, but acts
with sincerity, her own charm of per
son standing her in good stead. Jack
Holt as Gordon Appleby, William Con
klin, as Rupert Kenton, Dorcas Mat
hews as Eunice, Melbourne MacDo-
vell as Grant Appleby, Ellinor Han
cock as Mrs. Appleby and Robert Mc
Kim as Mortimer Appleby give the
star excellent support. Roy William
Neill directed the picture, and John
Stumar was the cameraman.
Vivian Martin in
"Unclaimed Goods"
A new author with a new story is
one of the important items to be
credited to "Unclaimed Goods," a five
part Paramount picture featuring Vi
vian Martin, and presented by Jessi
L. Lasky. Johnson McCulley is the
name of the author and the scenario
was made by Gardner Hunting.
Metsy nurke is the daughter of
Western sheriff, and her father's love
of a joke is at the bottom of the young
lady s adventures as an express pack
age. Having decided to send the girl
to her uncle in a distant town, and,
being short of cash, he turns her over
to the express company, and ships
her C. O. D. Before Betsy reaches
her destination her uncle has been
deprived of all his money by a gang
of gamblers that have practically
seized the town. Duly labeled with
the proper number of express tags,
Betsy gets out of the Wells-Fargo
stage at Gold Center, and is met by
her uncle. He embraces his niece,
and starts to take her to his home.
The agent stops the pair, and shows
his waybill. Uncle Murphy cannot
settle the C. O. D, and P.etsy is oblig
ed to stay in charge of the agent, a
young man with a quick eye for a
pretty girl.
Matters get dramatic right away.
"Gentleman Joe" Slade, head of-the
gamblers, seees the animated express
package, and determines to lay claim
to her. A war of wits and grit follow.
Donegan ,the express agent, is Betsy's
champion, and an old admirer of her's
a would-be badman named "Cocopah
Kid," turns up in time to fight on the
Bide of beauty in distress. It's a real
mixup at the finish, with Betsy put

high black shoes or low black shoes
or black cloth gaiters or leggings.
Over the uniform th overseas
munition workers wear n big gray
blue cotton blouse. It is really an
apron buttoned dewn to the bottom
with sleeves like a dress. It is the

A cable from Hoover says: "It should lie made clear to the people
of your territory that the mi'itary situation forms no adequate reason
lor relaxation of conservation. On the contrary European developments
make emphasis upon conservation. New effort is particular')- im
portant because the evacuation of occupied territory imposes upon us
t ho responsibility for a large additional civilian population."
