AT THE OPERA HOUSE
Repetition of "Cabiria" Which Scoreo
Such a Big Success Saturday.

"Cabiria'' will be repeated Tuesday
afternoon and evening at Urban Le-
douxs Cinemaforum at the Opera
house. Its success last Saturday night
ensures it a crowded house tonight
and it should not be I2issed' The New
York Globe says of It
The age of fire.
It is evident that Gabrielle Dan
nunzio understands mysticism. In
"Cabiria," which was produced at the
kEickerboclier theater for the first
tine, he WeaveS around beautiful
child Of five the mystic store of fire.
Have we not conquered the air, the
waters, and the earth? Yet there is
remaining fire.
1t is evident that "Cabiria' could
never be produced in other than pic
ture form. The magnificent fire scenes
the tremendous scenic effects which
are offset by pictures of exquisite beau
ty could never have been produced
except by means of moving pictures
1t seems hardly fitting to class this
picture with the ordinary everyday
photoplay. 1t is in a class by itself
far and away beyond anything yet at
tempted in this country or abroad.
The romantic story, which is partly
historical, begins with the saving Of
Cabiria. beautiful Sicilian child Of
five years, by her nurse on the day
when Catavia. city in Sicily. is near
ly destroyed by an eruption of Mount
Aetna. The nurse and child escape
from the ruined city and are about to
be sacrificed to Moloch, when rescued
by Fulvio, a young Roman, and his
servant, Maciste. The escape Of tile
child and her subsequent career form
the plot of D'Annunzios wonderful
play.
The film was produced by the Italia
Film Co. Of Turin, and the acting is
in keeping with the Italian standard
to which the Globe has frequently call
ed attention. A chorus and orchestra
add greatly to the production of Ca
biria" and The entire play and its ef-
feet last night comes near being per-
feet.
Harry r. Raver is the American di-
rector general Of the italia Film Co.
and the American tour will be under
the personal direction of Louis F.
Werba and Mark A Luescher-Adv.
