CRANDALi; . TM EATERS THE WASHINGTON TBIES. MONDAY," MABCH 3; .1919. She Walked In Her Sleep." Mark Swan's farce, which opened a week's eneaceinent.at the Shubert-Garrick Theater last night, achieves two rather remarkable feats It proves that a play can be so full of breath taklngly funny situations that they fairly fall over each other, - and at the seme time stay within the realms of possibility; and that there can be a bed room scene and a nightie two of each, even without the slightest touch of vulgarity. Incidentally, it's a corking good show, well conceived. Well palyed, and well set. without a drag In it, from the opening to the closing curtain. Chief honors in the piece. go to the leading male characters. Robert Ober and Arthur Aylesworth, but in fair ness to the rest of the cast it must be said thatj their roles have by far the greatest possibilities. The story opens in the apartment of the Prescotts, a recently married , WW hapXe .r,r;'?"d,"'"S threatened by the wife of William Bruce, Prescott's partner, one of thOBe women who not only delights' in doubting her own husband, but also in making other wives doubt theirs. Mrs. Lenox, Katherine Prescott's mother, is trying to combat this Influ ence. Prescott and Bruce come in, with an old -friend. Dr. Keith, and the women leave. Keith then tells them of a case that has brought him to the hotel, of a girl who is suffering" from somnambulism, without knowing it self. He explains that they are afraid to .ten her for fear of the ef fect the disclosure might have on her nL In the .meantime, Ted Lennox, l&rs. Prescott's brother, has announc ed that he has become engaged to al girl who 1s staying in the same apart aaent hotel, and is planning to marry her at once and take her off with him to Brazil. John Arnold comes Into the story then, with a new and powerful ex . plosive, -which hs wants the two part ners to analyze for him, and leaves .the only sample In existence with them. Everybody goes out, on one ' pretext or another, except Bruce, who stays to go over the contracts. He becomes so imersed In his work that he does not notice when a young wo man, clad In a nightgown and a pic ture hat, enters the room through a Window, and steals a number of arti tles the tube of explosive along with them. A few .minutes later Prescott is alone in the room and the somnam bulist enters again. He sees her she clings to his neck, in fact but he her sleep.

The second act is on the mezzanine floor of the' house, and the action is fast and furious.

"The Big Chance," which opened aj week's engagement here last night, has all the vital elements which made "Kick In." also staged by Willlard Mack, a- success.- With Mary Nash in the leading role and a capable supporting company. The Big Chance" scores with a dar Imagine a former mill girl living in a neat, but not gaudy apartment In New York with her former employer, a youth whom she refuses to marry for fear the home folks in New Bedford, Mass., would say she married him for his money. Imagine also a coterie of derelicts who make the apartment a rendezvous, who worship Mary, and enjoy life without being bothered by any details of hard work, and you have the setting at the beginning of act one. Charley Hickson, the ne'er-do-well youth, who loves Mary and is loved by her in return, is shipped off to Elng Sing for forgery by an uncle bent on breaking the Illicit love affair. Ip. the succeeding months Larry Thorn dyke, a remittance man from Ireland; "Pinky" GranvlHe. a wealthy yputb, and Eddie Crandall, a race track tout, continue their devotion to the girl, and "Pinky" alone transgresses in urging her to forsake the convict and allow him to be her "protector" In a sumptuous apartment. She prompt ly "calls' 'him and he. with the two others, obeys her prompting to enlist in the great struggle overseas and be regenerated. Upon his pardon Mary's lover also is forced into "The Big Chance" . Quite a bit of humor of the play Is provided by Anna Mack Berleln, who, as Mrs. Malloy, proprietor of the apartments where the couple live, winks at, the absence of a wedding ring. William E. Meehan. is the chief comedian in the cast, and his witti cisms and mannerisms won many a laugh. the National last night. The musical play Is based on a comedy by Jerome K. Jerome. It is a story of an actress in love with a supposed shirt salesman. They are married on the stage after the even ing performance. When the bride arrives at the husband's castle in Eng land, she discovers, much to her dis comfiture, that he Is a nobleman. Then, to add to her mortification. It turns out she Is his butler's niece. As such, the old fellow has a great deal to say to her as to how she should behave in select circles. All is well that ends well, however, and after a little misunderstanding and jinuch to do, the couple are reconciled. 1 By far the greatest hit of the eve- F B.WBT 314 7th St. N. W.

Van, the comedian, with Sydney Green street, as the pompous butler, run ning him a close second. Billy's scene with the two unso phisticated aunts of the young lord kept the audience in uproar. Greenstreet's work is in a class by itself. His clashes with the new mis tress of the house, the desperation with which he tries to keep her' In what he considers to be the straight and narrow path, and his grunting provoked much merriment. Beth Lydy, the leading woman, pleased with her charming voice and breezy personality, and Harry Delf and Lenora Novasio were decided hits with their eccentric dancing. The music, 'composed by Louis A. Hirsh, is far above the average. "I'll Think of Youl" sung by Delf and Miss Novasio. .deserves a place among the best lyric compositions of the day. It is full of pathos, yet the lilt of the tune Is catchy. Another good song was "In a Month or Two," sung by Harry Bcnham. assisted by Georgia Se'well. Merlam Medle, and the chorus. "My Rainbow Girl," sung by Miss Lydy and Benham, also is charming. IiYCEUM. Charles M. Baker's "High Flyers," one of the most popular attractions on the American burlesque wheel, constitute the attraction at the Ly ceum Theater this week. It Is an entirely new production. Twelve complete changes of scenery in the two acts and an unusual elec trical display are features. Heading the .cast are Bert Bcrtrand. Charles Cole. Stella Blair, Miller Evans, Frank Hanscom, Gertrude Rawlston, and Margie Hilton. A chorus of eighteen girls Is seen to advantage. FOLLY. The Folly Theater had a capacity bouse yesterrfay. "The Peacemakers" was the attraction, which was de scribed on the program as a fantastic musical burlesque. Among the prin cipals were Gus 'Mortimer Vivian Lawrence, Charles Snuffy Gramlich, Harry Fitzgerald, Charlotte Chastine, Austin King, Bert Leater, Helen -Dor-sey. and Ruby Gilmore. Fifteen musical numbers appear. The company has eighteen in the chorus. . . PALACE. Billie Burke is as charming as usual in "Good Gracious, Annabelle!" which is being shown at Loew's Pal ace. ' The story opens with Billie Burke as Annabelle living in a fashionable apartment hotel. She receives an al lowance from her husband, who is known as "the hermit." He, as far as Annabelle -knows, is In a mining camp out West. Indifference when they were first married caused her husband tp send her East. Annabelle has spent her allowance for six months ahead. All she has left to live on are two mining stock certificate. She borrows $1,200 on these. A short time later a telephone call comes from her lawyer tejllng her that her husband wants the stock. A few minutes after this sho Is informed that she has been named co-respondent in a divorce suit. How she get out of all hor trouble and becomes reconciled to her hus band by a second courtship make a decidedly interesting and amusing story. RXALTO. The genius of Maurice Tournetir never has been better demonstrated that in his plcturlzatlon of the famou Drury Lano melodrama, "The White Heather," shown for th first time on any screen at Moore's It I alto Thoator veaterdnv. Not oven In "Th Blue Bird" or in "Woman" did Mr. Tourneur achlev the same bauty of scene. "Ths White Heather" lends Itself with peculiar facility to the requlro menls of thq eampra, The develop ment of tho famous story ontalls a constantly shifting: locale, thus afford Intr opportunity for tho Introduction of many superb views, and loada to an aitnundlncr undor-aea climax lit which tho hero and villain fitfht a auo! with divers' knives on the floor of tho ocean, where each Is seeking fcvldenee, sunk with the yacht "Whlta Heather" years before, to clear the ama of tho heroine, The all-star east take full advan- age of tho many opportunities offered mmBmmmmmemKmmmmmxfm SHEPLEY, "Adam and Eva," at the Belasco. by the scenario, especially effcctlvo work being done by H. E. Herbert, as Lord Angus Cameron, Miss Ballin as his unacknowledged wife, and Maste'r Ben Alexander, remembered in "Hearts of the World." as their pra cocioun young son. METROPOLITAN AND KNICKER BOCKER. The screen dramatization of the later Charles Klein's famous play, "The Lion and the Mouse," which Is being shown at Crandall's Metropoli tan Theater during the early part of this week, serves to elaborate on the finer points of the plot which cannot be brought out on the stage. The film was also shown yesterday and is being held over today at the Knickerbocker. Alice Joyce, In the role of Shirley Rossmore, is introduced to the audi ence while she Is in Paris studying. Here she meets Jefferson Ryder, thr upright son of the Wall Street finan cier, John Burkett Ryder, and they fall in love. Their troubles begin when Shirley is called home, her father being In trouble. Ryder, Jr., goes with her and promises his aid in securing her father justice, with the power of his father. As tho play develops It is found that it is Jefferson's father who is having Judge Rossmore impeached because the fearless jurist rendered a railroad verdict unfavorable to thr interests of "Big Business." Ryder, sr., charges Rossmore, un justly, with accepting brirbes. Shirley is an authoress and writes a sketJkh of the financier's life under the name of Miss Green, and calls her book the "American Octopus." Ryder sees In the book himself stripped of his protecting armor of power and calls upon "Miss Green" to write hi biography. Shirley goes to Ryder's house and while there secures letters which will acquit her father of the charges. Ryder, sr., admits he Js beaten then and calls upon the Senate to discon tinue the trial. He then gives his con sent to his son's marriage to Shirley. COLU3IBIA. The latest Paramount production. "Alias Mike Moran," starring Wallace Reld, opened a four-day run at Loew's Columbia yesterday. Wallace Reld Ms at his best, as a talesman in a large department store who falls in love with a g"irl whom he supposed to be a millionaire ship builder's daughter. He also .maker the acquaintance, under unusual cir cumstances, of Mike Moran, an ex conVlct, who is very anxious to enlist n the army, but is unable to do so because of his prison record. The young salesman Is a slacker The draft calls him and he arranges to have Mike Moran take his name, Larry Young, and go in his stead. The real Toung. who has assumed the name of Mike Moran. obtains employ ment In a shipyard. He learns of the real Mike Moran'a heroic death In Flanders, and at last ho urges forth his manhood and enlists. He Is sent to France and Uses his right hand. At the same time the supposed hlp bullder'p daughter arrives In Europe to dq war work. In an unusual manner thy meet and she recognizes him as Larry Young, whom she had thought dead. Ho ex plains his actions and learns that she is. not the shipbuilder's daughter, but the daughter's companion. STRAND. The .strango power and oxotlc beauty of tho Orient manifest them selves In "A Heart In Pawn." the camera version of the stage play "Shadows," which, with Bnssuo naya kawa pictured In tho stellar roln, forms the chief attraction of the bill at Mooro's Strand Theater tho Jlrt four dayd of this week. From tho early scone of jrosamr beauty until that later tragic eplsodo In whloh tho hoart-brqken Japanso wlfo of a man, who thought sho wa dead, learned that ho had found oolaeo In the Jovo of an alien, woman, (ha production .ffrlpn the epoatatnr's mtat eot and imagination with unremttllna vltror. Hayakawa, In tho role of Toyama, does one of tho finest bits of Imper sonation that the screen has known, and a portrayal of equal effeetlvenais and infinitely deeper pathos is con tributed to a perfect enaemble by Tsuru Aokl. who is supplanted In tho One of the most interesting events of the year In a theatrical way will be, the presentation hero next week, at the Belasco Vheater.of "A Burgo master "of Belgium." " by Maurice Maeterlinck. Of course, anything from the pen of the noted Belgian Is more than worth seeing, but this has the added claim to fame in the fact that it brings the playwright to us in an absolutely 'new role that of a real ist. Not that it's a war play in the realistic sense of bayonets and screams. Despite the fact that the ,ldeu'ls taken direct rrom tne ueigian White Book, there's not a single atrocity on stage, and the piece is falrjy Grecian in its setting. There Is only one scene for the three acts, and the entire action takes place In approximately eight hours. But the big thing is Maeterlinck as a realist. One can almost as'easlly Imagine Shaw as -the writer of a modern bedroom, farce! "Fatty" Arbuckle has just "signed up a three-year contract, aggregat ing $3,000,000 dollars, -with the Fa mous Players-Lasky so his press agent says. We hope that "Fatty" and his press agent have come to a thorough un derstanding about this because think what a nice chunk of Income ax. It will mean for -Undo Sam. The Lasky Corporation has been having a busy week. Irene Castle, widow of Vernon Castle, has Just ar tanged to appear for them in the filmlzatlon of Robert W. Chambers' novel, "The Firing Line," and they've also been acquiring screen .rights of J. M. Barrie's play, "The Admirable affection of her husband by Sada, skillfully limned by Vola Dale. APOLLO. "Courage For Two" presents Carlyle Blackwell In a dual personality role In which several ingenious effects are accomplished through double expos ure. This picture formed the princi pal attraction at Crandall's Apollo yesterday. From the very start the 8tory abounds In action. Cal Douglas learns that his present unsatisfac tory condition in life is due to the fact that his father was robbed, shortly before his death, by -a busi ness partner. Gilbert Nichols. Cal decides to visit Anthony Hop kins, a wealthy cousin, in an attempt to find employment, and while there discovers that Nichols is trying to rob Anthony as he did his father. Resolving to punish Nichols, the cousins decide to chango places, An thony going to Cal's hdme and Cal assuming the place of Anthony. From this situation is evolved a story that proves not only novel but rich in thrilling action. GARDEN. There Is sufficient diversity of scene and action in "A Trick of Fate," in which .Bessie Barriscale is starred at Moore's Garden Theater the first three days of this week, to satisfy the most exacting taste. Miss Barriscale is cast in a role that affords her a 'rather less ham pered opportunity than she has had in others of her recent releases. Not only is the star an entrancing vision in such costumes as a French danseuse might be expected to ap pear in an "Oo-ia-la" number, but the Parisian night life and the dramatic subject is further notable for the fidelity with which it visualizes the power which It exerts in a climax that partakes of all of the melodra matic tensity of a well-conceived po lice play. In the supporting cast are many whose names have always stood for the most sincere character delinea tion, Including Alfred Whitman and Joe Dowling. SAVOY. The combination of Charlie Chap lin in his latest picture. "Shoulder Vrms." and Tom Mix In "Twisted Trails" formed a double feature pro gram at Crandall's Savoy yesterday that was pleasing- from beginning to end. "Shoulder Arms" is one of the best pictures in which Chaplin has been seen. Taking military life for its theme. It offers' a wealth of op portunities for mirth-making. And while Chaplin is himself responsible for most of the fun. due credit must be given to the supporting cast. Edna Purvlance is again seen' as his lead ing woman. The other feature, "Twisted Trails," is, of course, a Western subject of that type in which Tom Mix shines to particular advantage, giving him plenty of chances for daring. CKANDALIS. While the average photoplay "fan" shows an unusual aptitude for guess ing tho outcome of the plot of a film, the denoue.nent In "The Wom an in the Index" is so surprisingly unusual that thrre will be few, in deed, that foresee it. This picture formed . the attraction at CrandaJl'o yesterday and is being shown there again today. Paulino Frederick has the chief rolo that of Sylvia Martin. In the early part of the tory aho Is seen as a poor girl who, driven from her home, is rescued by a passing stranger. Their ncqus-Intance ripens Into lovo. and, not suspectjnc that he Is the leader of a bapd off crooks, she marries him. Cornered by the police, the husband ondn his life. The girl Is accused of hla murder and of rob bery. Eventually sho la freed, and later she weds' a man who has no knowledge of. her former life, pylvla Imafflnea her past Is dead, when the 'dotoetlva who arrested her turns up a her prenont husband's friend, Ho la now chief of the Se cret Bervlee, Vrom tha point the drama mounts to a surprising climax. AVBNUI3 GRAND, Jllae Marsh eleverly combined whim sical comedy and gripping drama in "The Bondage of Barbara," at Cran dall's Avenue Grand yesterday, Walter Browne's Dr. Karl MticR,' formerly conductor of the .Boston- .Symphony Orchestra and more recently Interned as an enemy alien, is quoted as being de lighted with the suggestion that he be deported to' Germany., Is there any echo that "this makes it unanimous?" "Oh, Look!" the tuneful musical comedy with which Elliott, Comstock. and Gest followed up "Nobody Home," "Very Good Eddie," "Oh, Boy!" "Leave It to Jane," "Oh, Lady, Lady.-' and "Oh,My Dear!" is soon to return to Washington, at Poll's Theater. The Dolly Sisters, Harry Fox, and the rest of the 'original cast are. with 1C From here It will go to Philadelphia for an allrsprlng run. "What Shall We Do With HlmT' a film made by McClure Picture?, is the first picture made so far dealing "with the subjects under discussion" at the peace congress in Paris. Frank Keenan, who Is to be seep this week at the Strand. Theater in "Todd of the Times," has gone out on his own, producing his own pictures under his own name. Fannie Ward, the star of "Common Clay," during her stage and screen career, has played 300 love scenes; but says, at that, she probably was not as busy as E. G. Henson, of the New Opera House, Charles Town. W Va., who letterheads his activities as "sole owner, manager, treasurer, press agent, electrician, musical director, head usher, billposter, janitor." Francesca RosettI, who draws -as well as she writes, is Illustrating a collection of charming child stores of whichaby Marie Osborne, juvenile screen star, is the central figure. A new play called "Come On, Charlie," Is in rehearsal in New York. It Is a brand-new idea in comedies, and is due in New -York in three or four weeks. Madge Evans is the star in a one reel "Prlzma natural color picture," which Is now being made at the World -Studio at Fort Lee. It will be re leased under the title of The Little Match GlrL" This is aid to be the first picture ever made In America where the entire photoplay was pho tographed in natural colors. George Washington, as a. tempera mental man who embraces and kisses his friends, Is the unique picture pre sented In a section of Percy Mackaye'3 ballad play, "Washington," which was given last week at the French Theater in New York. The new por trait is the Idea of M. Jacques Copeau. Even if it Is disillusioning, we must admit it's original. Ethel Barrymore was suffering from an extremely severe cold all during her engagement last week at the Na tional In "The Off Chance," and It was only her extreme distaste for dis appointing her audiences that kept her from canceling the engagement. She stayed under a doctor's care, and never went out, except to go from the hotel to the theater and back In a closed automobile. At several per formances her cough was painfully apparent, but It takes more than a mere cold to make Barrymore lose her effectiveness, and the only effect on the audiences was to make them sympathetic A Motion Picture Fund, something of the same nature an the Actors' Fund, has been started. One of the objects, it is said, is to establish a home for the aged and disabled In the Industry. The AI Jolson company, presenting "Slnbad" at the Forty-fourth Street Theater, had a christening yesterday. Kitty Doner became godmother and Stanley Sharpe. manager of the Win ter Garden, godfather of Johnny Berkes little daughter, Dolores. As Johnny Berkes is a cousin of Secre tary Tumulty, Dolores also had White House felicitations on this auspicious occasion. Courtship in a flying airplane is an innovation in motion pictures. Such a scene is in Theda Bara's next Wil iram Fox production, "When Men De cide." The wardrobe room of a "girl show" should not necessarily be crowded, if the press agents are to be believed. But atop the New Amster dam Theater, in New York, the cos tume room of the Ziegfeld "Nine o'clock Revue and Midnight Frolic" nightly presents a rather jumbled ap pearance. One night a Are inspector, who looked into the room (while the chorus was out), wanted to know why the room was littered with emp ty barrels. Fortunately the stage manager had a playbill with him. and was able to convince the fire official that the barrels are the costumes worn by the girls In the "They. All Went Home in a Barrel" number.
