PANTHER GIRL AT ROYAL·.
Mme. Olga Perova, who since her
unusually splendid costuming of the
leading role In her Broadway suc
cess, "Panthea," one costume ol
which graced her exquisite form in
such a manner that she was called
the panther girl, so fit and ready did
•he seem for the spring as would the
sleek, shiny, sinuous inhabitant ol
the jungle, has aroused such a fu
rore of appreciation in the cinema
world that it is scarcely to be doubted
that she will continue her labors in
this line and forsake the legitimate
stage until managerial acumen may
prove to her that a return to the
speaking stage for even a season
would further heighten the regard of
American dramatic lovers for her art.
Mme. Petrova is to be the feature in
a powerful dramatic comedy story
called "Extravagance," one peculiar
ly adapted to her splendid gifts at the
Royal theatre today.
Tomorrow the soul stirring drama,
*'The Power of Evil," with Henry
King in the principal role will be the
feature picture.
BIG PLAYS NEXT WEEK.
A sterling stock organization in a
magnificent list of dignified plays that
have scored recently unequivocal suc
cess in the theatrical arena which
means modern scintillating, up-to-date
themes, handled by a cast of unusual
excellence which completes great
productions at popular prices and
equals many of the dollar and a half
attractions that visit here at frequent
Intervale.
The introductory plan on Monday
afternoon will be Owen Davis' big
American play of "Sinners," which was
originally produced by William A.
Brady at his New York Playhouse,
where It ran for 321 nights.
In selecting "Sinners" as an opening
bill, Mr. Harder feels that he is giv
ing one of the strongest plays that
New York has produced in years. It is
a play of emotions, it is wholesome,
convincing, a picture of life as it really
is. It shows the night life of the rich
men of New York city, surrounded by
the women of the great white way.
Into this atmosphere comes a young,
beautiful girl from a New England
town. A fruitless quest for work dis
courages her, and persuaded by the
arguments of those around her she is
about to follow the "easiest way" when
Providence intervenes in the shape of
word that her mother is dying.
The play opens in a New York
apartment, but the remaining three
acts are portrayed in the home of the
heroine where her former companions
have followed her, but she has expe
rienced a change of heart at the sight
of her dear old mother and not only
she. but the man who sought her as
his best prey is brought to look at life
In a different light in the pure atmos
phere of the little country home.
The author has left nothing undone
to place before the public in absolute
perfect manner what is critically re
garded as the best American play of
the day.
Seats are now selling for the entire
engagement.
ORIENTAL NIGHT AT
CITY THEATRE
With Japanese trays, vanity cases
and novelties, together with Turkish
rugs and Hindoostaness table covers
as specially attractive gifts tonight îo
accentuate the introduction of wh'it^
is known as Oriental night, the City
theatre promises one of the most en
joyable of the extra features that
have grown so rapidly in public esti
mation at this theatre.
Principal among the entertainers I
new bill of vaudeville
^^■^^lcturcs that served to highly
crowds last night was
the novelty comedy offering of reiser
and Leb&ck. To dilate on their many
excellent attainments would require
much space, and so it is only neces
sary to state that their comedy ac
complishments in knockabout acro
batic work, singing, etc., quite mnde
them the sensation of the current
season.
Jack Walters and Irene Jermon in
a quaintly interesting comedy sketch
founded on nature's trials and enti
tled "A Bit of Life," were great fav
orites; Harrington and Sadler, a gor
geously garbed sister pair of singing
and dancing stars, were heartily ac
claimed and May Deverc was a strong
card in her songs and dances.
"Liberty," the ever popular patri
otic picture, received its usual vocif
erous reception, and "An Oily Scoun
drel," a Keystone comedy featuring
Fred Mace supplied an abundance of
laughs. ι
AT THE DITMAS.
The distinguished character actor,
Lew Fields, supported by Doris Ken
yon, and a notable cast, will appear at
, the Ditmas today in a picturtzation of
I the well known play "The Man Who
' Stood Still." Second in importance
will be the Hearst International News
offered on the day of its release and
giving the patrons of the Ditmas the
news of the week while it is still news.
The Rialto theatre in New York shows
the Hearst International News each ι
week and the same news pictures to
be offered at the Ditmas tomorrow
will be shown at the Rialto next week.
Tomorrow brings back one of the
greatest of David Belasco's successes.
"The Girl of the Golden "West," which
is the best western melodrama ever
written. The Jesse L. Lasky Company
produced this play with an all star
cast that includes House Peters as the
bandit, Theodore Roberts as Jack
Ranee the sheriff, and Mabel VanBur-j
en as the girl. The locale of the story,
in California was used in the plcturi-i
zation and lias been produced by Las
ky with all the superb lighting effects,]
regard for detail and disregard for ex
pence that have made the Lasky pro
ductions second to none on the screen
today.
The coming engagement of Mme.
Nazimova in "War Brides" on Dec. 25,
26, and 27 promises to be one of the)
society events of the season as Nazi
mova lias always been a favorite of
the smart set and as this is her first
appearance on the screen her appear
ance in this city will call forth the
most fashionable audiences that have
ever beheld a theatrical performance
in this city. "War Brides" although
a war play is a story of the home and
the effect that war has on the women
and children and for dramatic action
easily surpasses anything ever before
accomplished by the silent drama. The
Ditmas management are announcing
the scale of prices and the fact that
mail orders will be accepted in a large
advertisement in today's issue and
patrons who wish special locations are
advised to send in their orders at
once as the interest already aroused
means that "War Brides" will play
to capacity audiences at all perform
ances.
