WHAT IS HAPPENING HERE
 THIS WEEK

EMPRESS-One of those interesting stories is The Cave Man." which will be presented at the Empress today and tomorrow. Robert Edeson, who stars in this photomasterpiece, has never been seen in a part where he could show his ability to a better ad- vantage. From a coal beaver he raises to the very top of the social world and plays the two extremes as if it were his life's work The theme of this photodrama is a beautiful love story, which ends in a very pleasing manner. There will be matinee today.
 On Tuesday and Wednesday the popular Merto star Marguerite Snow will make her first appearance in this theater in Rosemary" This will mark Miss Snow's first appearance starring alone under Metro auspices, and in the future she will be seen at the head of her own company Her last appearance on the Metro pro- gram was in The Silent Voice" with Francis X. Bushman, a big production in which they divided stellar honors. Miss Snow is surrounded by a notable cast in Rosemary" which includes Paul Gilmore, the eminent romantic and dramatic actor.
 On Thursday and Friday, Richard Buhler the popular stage favorite makes his second .appearance under the Lubin banner in a stirring study of life which has been titled "A Mans Making" This feature photoplay is i'll five reels and is of the type which carries an appeal to young and old alike with its vivid depletion of the struggle of a real rugged young col lege bred American fellow against the
Arizona republican., 1916-02-13

The play while tense in dramatic ac- tion, is also well supplied. with com edy elements and the entire story is wholesome and soul compelling in theme. Audell Higgins will be seen as the wife; Ben Erway as Robert. Hugh Metcalf as John Brand and Roscoe Karns as the breezy newspa- per chap, Dick Meade. Special set tings will be used for each of the four acts and no doubt Fine Feathers" will prove a most popular Redmond attraction.
