Excellent Bin at New Boz.

The Edison photo play adaptation Of
that clever story of the trials and mis-
haps of A. Keene Shaver a theosophi-
cal barber, MY Friend From India"
by II. A. Du Souchet. will be shown at
the New Boz today and tomorrow. The
story of the attempt of Erastus Under
holt, retired pork packer. TO enter
New York society through the medium
of the barber who is found in the sons
room litter a racket with the boys
and is forced to play the part of an
East Indian theosophist is too we'll
known for repetition. The funniest
complications arise in his endeavors t.-
keep up his part.
Walter e. Perkins, who originated
the part of A Keene Shaver-with
Smythe and Rice's comedians, also
plays in the leading part in this Edison
adaptation. From the moment he en-
tered upon the stage clad in a yellow
silk bed coverlet, which is the inspira-
ton for Charley Underholt's brilliant
idea OF introducing him as an East In
dian, Perkins Is funny. There is no
such condition as blase when he is on
the screen. When he smiles the audi
ence smiles with him, and nature must
be given some credit Tor her part In
making that smiling face funny. His
best part is where. clad as Mrs. Beck
man-Streete, he gets behind mirror
frame, and, following the grimaces and
actions of that fair lady, leads her to
believe that she is watching her own
reflection. 1t is cleverly done and al
ways gets a deserved round of APP
plause.
Robert Brewer, as Erastus Under
holt, the retired pork packer. is clever
Augustus Phillips is Charles Underholt
the scapegrace son. Sally Crute as
Marian Hayste. Cora Williams as Mrs
Beekman- Streete and Bliss Milford as
Beatrice Underholt are excellent. May
Abbey as Tillic, German maid, is
very funny. Others in the cast are
Viola Damn, William Sadler, Henry
Tomlinson, Edward O'Connor, Fred s
Heck and T. Tamamoto.

At the Isis.

The most recent production of the
Famous Players Film company The
Little Grey Lady" is the feature in
four reels at the Isis today, tomorrow
and Wednesday. This charming play
of Washington life by Claiming Pol
lock, which was such a great stage
success. gives Jane Grey, the noted
actress, great opportunities. 1t is laid
in an atmosphere that probably was
never before utilized in motion pic
lures. The entire action occurs at
Washington, the plot being woven
about the theft of 800 note from
the redemption department of the
United States treasury, with the love
story ingeniously interviewer.
Perry Carlyle goes to Washington
from Canton, o., and becomes a clerk
in the redemption agency, where the
sweetheart OF his boyhood, Anna Grey.
is also employed. He goes the pace,
abandons his love quest of Anna, and
turns his affections toward Ruth Jor-
dan, an adventures. Through 1t all,
the girl he loved in his old home town
is steadfast, and she sacrifices her
reputation that he may escape the pun
ishment for his crime.
The surroundings, not only unique
for a picture story, are also realisti-
cally faithful to the environment in
which the drama is laid. The entire
company illustrate their parts with a
moderation and graphicness that re-
suit in thoroughly genuine characters
The original play as performed on the
boards, was a novelty in stage litera-
ture and in the film version this or
| iginality obtains equally well,
