DIES DURING FIRST
ride in new AUTO
Actor Purchases Car After Finishing
"Extravasance Picture"

In connection with Mime. Petrova's film
success "Etrayagance" there Is linked q
pathetic incident. The leading male role
in support Of the dark-eyed star was as
sumed by Arthur Hoops. well known to
local theater-goers. "Extravagance" was
nearing completion when Mr.. Hoops de-
cided to eschew the subway IL" and sur
face cars and cast his lot with autoists.
At odd moments in the studio he could
be seen perusing all sorts Of automobile
literature, his conversation fairly bris-
tied with "carbureters." ''magnetos." :"
clutches" radiators" and "self-start-
ers." IS
The day following the completion of the
photo-play Mr.. Hoops car arrived at the
studio, and with the driver at the wheel
he set out to try it. Mr.. Hoops had been
complaining for some time as feeling
rotten as he put II, but was in good
spirits when he left the studio While
crossing the new Brooklyn Bridge the
driver spoke several times to Mr.. Hoops
about the car, but receiving no response
he looked around and to his horror saw
the actor all huddled up In the seat and
gasping for breath. In all haste he drove
to the nearest hospital, but too late. The
physicians pronounced Mr.. Hoops death
as due to heart failure.
His role in "Extravasance" fs his last
appearance before the camera. Mr.. Hoops
was known to Washington playgoers.
He frequently came to the city with COM
by James X. Hackett with the most sue
cessful stock company ever operated In
Washington. The dead actor was espe-
cially good In heavy roles and has ap-
peared In the support Of many famous
stars.

PROMISED NEXT WEEK.
NationaI-JuIian .EItinge.

In bringing Julian Eltinge back to this
city at the National Theater next week
for a return engagement in this laugh
able comedy Cousin Lucy" Producing
Manager A. H. Woods, feels that he is
responding to a general appeal from local
theatergoers for another glimpse of this
popular star in his greatest success. 1t
will be recalled that during his visit last
season the demand for seats was so
heavy that many playgoers were unable
to gain admission.
This condition was due to the fact that
as a suitable vehicle for Mr.. Eltinges
talents, Cousin Lucy" was the best en-
tertainment in which he had ever ap-
peared. The excellent company in the
stars support, the magnifcence of the
stage settings. the funny play. the de-
lightful music. the beautiful chorus, and
the lavish wardrobe exhibited by the i'm
personator combined to make an attrac-
ton that was little short Of irresistible.
The only features retained are the
story and the company. all the original
players Of which will be seen again in
cluding Dallas Wexford. Jane Oaker
Carolyn Lila, Mark Smith, Mabelle
Cedars, and Charles Morrison.
