POMPEII PICTURES
IDEALLY BEAUTIFUL

There are so many ideally heauti-
full scenes In George kleine's photo
drama production, THE Last Days OF
Pompeii," that it Is difficult to find any
to praise more than the others
Among the unusual episodes. however,
that are particularly pleasing 10 the
discriminatingly artistic spectators are
those showing Glaucus and lone float
ing down the Bay of Naples in their
beautiful barge. attended only by their
slaves and slowly developing that
glorious. steadfast love that sustained
them later in the terrible ordeals that
befel them-and the scene showing
lone at her bath. receiving the mes
sage from Arbaces to come to the
temple. This is one of the most
beautiful pictures of the group and
gives an excellent idea of the luxuri-
GUS manner in which the wealthy
ancients performed these functions.
Both the homes of Glaucus and lone
are gorgeous specimens of ancient
beauty and luxury. denoting the artis-
tic quality of the people of those
times. The scene showing lone and
Glaucus feeding the fish and doves is
exquisite In its daintiness.
THE Last Days of Pompeii Is a
photo dramatization of Lord Bulwer
Lytton's widely read romantic novel
and Is announced for all next week at
the Empire, giving four performances
daily, 2, 4, and p. M.

SPIDERS MAKE.
READY FOR GAME
WITH METH0D|STS
HERO AT RICHMOND
CoLLEGE-COACH CONFIDENT
oFIMPRovED SHOWING.

Newton Ancarrow was the hero at
the local college yesterday because
of his thirty-ward run for the win
ming touchdown in the Wake Forest
game of Saturday. Newly played as
corking a game In foreign territory as
he always plays here, according to
reports and the statements OF the
other players and it was chiefly be-
cause of his good work throughout the
game that the Spiders triumphed.
Coach Dobson Is greatly pleased
over the showing his team made
against the Carolinians, and predicts
that the Red and Blue team Is yet
due to do something. He Is confident
that he has the making Of several real
stars on his team and says that with
the increased spirit which the players
as we'll as the students in general are
showing, and the efforts which they
are putting forth to turn out Win
ner that they will be successful
The real work of the season Is just
beginning now and most Of the men
are in prime condition to take up the
heavier art of the training for the
championship games. Only minor
bruises were received in the game Sat
urday. and IL is thought that by Satur-
day. when the team plays the annual
exhibition game against the Yellow
Jackets, IL will be in midseason form.
MANY additional plays will be tried
out by the coach this week, and 1t Is
said that while the majority Of the
best formations will be saved for the
cham pionship struggle, at least few
of the tricks will be introduced in the
fracas Saturday.

Yale ries
Out New Plays
in Ball Cage

NEW HAVEN, CONN. Oct. 90
a long practice In the baseball cage
took up the time of the Yale var
sity men this afternoon. The origi-
nal order was for the men to go to
the field, but the rain poured In tor
rents and the coaches were finally
afraid that they would injure the
ankles and knees of the candidates,
ana increase the already large hos
pI&al list. The cage afforded no place
tor i scrimmage, but before the after
noon was over two lines were bucked
stoGether to try out special plays.
I Besides the practice formations, the
stinemen had considerable work break
lng through. The coaches called at
tention to the fact that because of
lack Of ability to do this Saturday.
sLehigh was once able to hold Yale on
the vineyard line. A big squad Of
coaches is coming during the week
~ there will be secret afternoon prac-

Harvard Plans
Style OF Play
for Princeton

CAMBRIDGE, MASS. Oct. 20
The coaches gathered the Harvard
varsity men in the locker buiidin8
today, and before the blackboards
mapped the style of offensive play
that will be used against Princeton
at Old Nassau, three weeks hence.
The squad was the taken into the
baseball cage to begin work on the
plays. 1t is calculated that the aE-
gressiveness shown in the Holy cross
game was just what was needed to
start the mettle of the Crimson team.
Harvard will get back to the game
tomorrow, although Soldiers held
still is in wretched condition for first
class football. Much open play -
expected from the Pennsylvania state
players, who 1t is thought. were not
presented in strongest front in the
State colleges game against Wash-
ington and Jefferson Saturday.
Harvard Is anxious for another
hard game, and relies on Pennsyl-
vania State for it. as Cornell Is not
taken seriously.

Mary Minter Return.


Precocious Mary Miles Minter. who
won the hearts of Richmonders last
year as THE Little Rebel" in just one
performance. opened at the Bijou last
night for a weeks engagement in
Edward PEBBLES interesting war drama
in which she has scored a signal sue
cess the country over.
When Richmond saw this clever
child actress last season, Dustin
Farnum was touted as the star, but
--as this reviewer candidly stated at
that time-little Miss Minter bore off
all the honors and Mr.. Farnum sim
ply furnished her good support. There
lis no reason to alter that view now.
The play needs no male star with the
shimmering Notwithstanding stage
glory--that centers upon this wonder
full child. Wonderful is not too
strong an adjective to employ In de-
scrfbing the talent of the golden
haired little creature who displays as
perfect poise in every situation as
could be expected in woman of ma
turer years.
The piece has not lost anything in
interest at least since Dustin and VIII
liam Farnum quilt 1t. Claude Payton
makes a soldierly. handsome Lieu
tenant Colonel Morrison. reads his
lines well with an effective voice and
commanding stage presence--an al
together satisfactory effort, while
Angus GUSTAV as the Captain Herbert
Cary of the cast measures up well.
Miss Zenaide Williams gives a finished
performance Of the part Of Mrs. Cary,
making the most of a small oppor-
tunity, and Martin Reagan's interpre-
tation of the character of the faithful
slave, Uncle Billy, Is feature. as 1t
has alwf 4 been. Both Mr.. Reagan
and John O.. Newett, who gives US a
splendid bit Of work as General
Grant, were in the original companies.
And 1t all gets back to the last analysis
Miss Mary Minter is a wonderful
little girl and she has good support
ing company.
AS to the play---it Is said by critics
to be the best of the many dramas OF
the Civil war. Anyhow 1t Is repiete
with human interest. tho stirring
action and realism of warfare and
all the heart throbs and sentiment
thrown in, without the usual founda-
ton OF q love affair. for In his war
drama Mr.. PEBBLES departed--thanks
to him--from the beaten path.
The company now playing Mt the
Bi1ou carries the original setting and
effects Of the original production,
which means that the play Is ade-
quately staged. Richmond will have
an opportunity to see Mary Miles
Minter in THE Littlest Rebel every
might this week, with matinees today,
Thursday and Saturday.--R. w. v.
