ADJUSTMENTS
A bout the Thenters.

In the hope OF rccuperating from the
three performances OF Mrs. Langtry's
Mrs. Thompson" the Academy of
Music will remain dark throughout the
week until Saturday, afternoon and
night. when Arthur Hammerstein's
musical jollity. High links" will be
presented. This piece has real story
of the brightest good humor, and the
story liz set of by particularly tune
full music. When II was offered here
last season, IL proved to be one OF the
few good bets of the season. and judg-
ing from the published list of the cast,
High links" will again be well worth
seeing and hearing.
For this week the management Of
the Dorothy Mortimer Company has Sc
lected for presentation The Woman
He Married" which served as one OF
Virginia liarned's most successful
vehicles. II is understood that the play
is Il love comedy, with plenty of both
love and comedy 10 make it interest
Ing and entertaining. The manage
ment expects to offer n performance
that will surpass even the cumpany's
remarkable Interpretation of Within
the Law"
inside the Lines" has been chosen
as the Graycc Scott CompanyS bill for
this week. The management AYERS that
1t is the best war play seen since Will
liam Gillette presented Secret Ser
vice" II deals. OF course. with the
war in Europe, but II is emphasized
that not n scene in il could offend
either the violent neutral or the patri-
otto sympathizer. Further. not a mo-
nent of gun play will mar the enjoy
ment OF the audience.
Manager Rex. of the Lyric. features
for the first half OF the week at his
rt-nr yh no nj
travaganza. "All For Fun with Tom
Smith, Ralph Austin and a company.
Another act prominently billed is that
OF the AZimas groundand-lotty tum-
blers and euuilibrists. Others on the
program are: Stanley and Herbert, n
comedian and 4 girl; Thomas !. Keough
and Ruth Francis in political comedy
sketch. The Ward Hecler." and Amy
Lesser, com edicnne.
That veteran OF the picture game,
Maurice Costello, makes his -reappear-
ance on the Coloniars screen to-day
and tomorrow in the photoplay, The
Man Who Couldn't Beat God" A few
years ago, Costello was better known
than any other picture actor. Since
then. lot Of long haired lads have
usurped his proud position, but il is
likely that he will prove to DC still Il
strong drawing card. Unless memory
Is at fault. lie is n frst-ratc screen ac-
tor, as we'll as a favorite
Blanche Sweet is the Little Theater's
screen star for the first three DAYS of
this week in a photoplay bearing the
lurid title, The Secret Sin" This
photoscrmon is billed as "a hitter pro-
nounccment against the drug evil and
the trade in opium, against which tho
United States government has wagcd
an unceasinG battle" 1t is likely, how
ever. that neither the management OF
the house nor that OF the picture is
averse to earning n few homes; double
jits by showing the picture for money.
That fine actor and screen favorite,
William Farnum, will be seen at the
Isis to-day and to-m0rrow in the
photoplay, The Wonderful Adven-
ture," in which he assumes n dual role.
Unless memory is AT fault again this
is the picture that follows the story Of
The Masqucrader.'
