 The greatest photodramatic pro- duction ever seen on the screen will be the attraction at the Auditorium on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, when Geraldine Farrar, the celebrat- ed prima donna will appear in a film version of her famous opera. Carmen, produced by the Jesse L. Lasky com pany.
 In securing the appearance Of Miss Farrar before the motion picture ramera, the Lasky company scored the greatest coup in the history of the motion picture industry. This dis tinguished international artist had held herself a1oof from scores of aattering offers to appear before the camera until she was approached by 2 representative of the Lasky organi- Ection.
 Tn Carmen Miss Farrar is seen as tfle flalf-wild, fascinating gypsy who Is the head of band of smugglers. How she leads one man to death and another to ruin and is herself stab- bed by a jealous lover are bat incl dents fin this thrilling five reel pic- lure.
 The bull fight scenes were specially staged by a company of Toreadora brought from Spain and with bull brought from Mexico. Over 10000 people took part in the scenes at the arena.
 The cast to support Miss Farrar was selected from the most prominent and capable artists in the country. Wallace Reid one of the most prominent stars in the country. plays Don Jose; Pe- dro De Cordoba, leading man for Mar yaret Anglfn, Is seen as the Tortea- dor, William Elmer Anita King, Jeanie Macpherson, H.
