NEW BARRISCALE ROLE
REPLETE WITH ROMANCE

Although many phOtOdramas have
been written around plots dealing with
the doings of royalty in mythical king
doms, J. G. Hawks, of the Thomas II.
Ince staff Of photo playwrights, the
author of Bullets and Brown Eyes"
the Triangle Kay-Bee feature to be
shown at the Orepheum one evening
only, Monday, in which Bessie Bar
riscale is starred is declared to have
set a new standard for this kind of
production
Though the production is said to be
replete with thrills and the tragedy of
battle, the author has laid stress on
the fact that it is a romance, and in
preparing his script for production,
did so with the idea of making the
love story paramount.
With Miss Barriscale ever in mind,
the author has written a sympathetic
role in which she appears as the hero
inc of many stirring adventures. These
she shares with William Desmond,
who plays the chief supporting role,
one which portrays him as a reckless
young leader of light cavalry who ter
rorizes the people of the enemy's coun-
try, and finally brings him face to face
with the star in a situation charged
with dramatic possibilities
Hawks, before becoming a photo
playwright, passed through stirring
adventures in many of the outposts
of the world, as soldier, actor and ex-
plorer.

COMMENT ON "THE
BATTLE CRY OF PEACE"

A spectator at moving picture is
callOus sort. He has had sudden
death and destruction served up to
him too often to have it ruffle his calm
exterior. Besides he knows all this is
essential to any film worth the price
of admission. Thus in general he is
able to sit unmoved, while the dram
ats personae struggle in the midst of
fire, or flood, or famine 1t is not be-
cause he is hardhearted 1t is because
there has become firmly ingrained in
him the belief that somewhere in the
last reel there will be tucked away a
happy ending. Be it said to the credit
of "The Battle Cry of Peace" produced
last night at the Majestic, that every
one in the crowded house waited for
the happy ending with strained atten-
ton. They read with general excite
ment the moral of unpreparedness the
film is supposed to teach. And their
attention changed to horror when the
happy ending, after lowering about
for some time as a remote possibility,
vanished beneath the ruins of the
city of New York.-BostOn Transcript

DESTRUCTION OF MINED
VILLAGE INJURIES ACTORS

A score of phOtoplay actors and
several spectators were injured during
the making of the William Fox photo
drama "The Serpent" in New Jerseys.
The play deals with Russian life and
includes several battle scenes.
In order to make the engagements
between the Russians and the Germans
as realistic as possible, Director R. A.
Walsh employed two military experts
to supervise the maneuvers A large
plot of ground was mined and the
mines were to be exploded just after a
detachment of retreating soldiers had
passed over them.
Because of a mistaken signal the
man operating the electrical connec-
lions opened the switch too soon. In
the premature explosion which follow
ed, actors, guns, swords and munition
wagons were hurled several feet into
the air. Theda Bara, star of THE Ser

scenes, tainted Ambulances from
Fort Lee and surrounding places re-
moved thirteen actors and supernum-
aries, whose injuries ranged from lac
erations to broken bones.

CHALICE OF COURAGE
Louise Newbold, fearing a former
sutton, James Armstrong, begs leave to
accompany her husband on a trip to
the mountains While on lonely
trail, Louise's horse slips and both
rider and horse fall over a high cliff.
Louises injuries are so unbearable
that she implores her husband to end
her life, and through his love for her
he fulfills her wish.
Five years later James Armstrong
meets Enid Maitland, who comes out
of the east, and falls in love with her.
The two go camping in the mountains.
One day while on a fishing trip Enid
is caught in tornado and while try
ing to make her way home, is blown
over a cliff into a torrent. She is res
cued by a recluse of the mountains,
no other than the Newbold who figur-
ed in the early part of the story. He
takes her to his camp in the noun
tains and the rain, which has been
coming down in torrents, turned into
snow and imprisoned the two in this
lonely camp for the entire mountain
winter. Enid is believed to be dead
by her relatives, but Armstrong has

seem to offer the quickest haven to the
frightened offender. Each of these re-
publics has far more than its quota of
men who are endeavoring to hide them
selves and forget!
Many are trying to drown their remorse
in drink, and in their efforts to accomplish
this purpose have sunk lower in the scale
of civilization than beasts. I saw a
former bank president from the United
States, defaulter, who by some means
had attached himself to tribe of Carib
Indians. Ignored by the men of the clan,
he carried water for the women and did
their chores. His feet had not seen shoes
for years, and his matted beard and
disheveled hair reached the waist-line of
his ragged undershirt, which, with his
trousers, formed his only raiment.
At the sea-wall of Central American
port, gazing eastward with inquiring
mien from dawn to dusk, stands "Napo-
leon." When ne came there, or how, no
one knows. Even his name has been lost

genius affected, the wisp Of hair on his
forehead, the fingers of one hand con-

which he is locally known. He speaks to
none, but stiff1y salutes all passers-by.

was all that was expected of him.
White never received any mail. He
never borrowed books or asked for papers
from the States, the one thing that out
cast men crave. Once each month he
would give the chief engineer of a ship
that came from New York a letter to post.
What he did with his money no one knew;
what he thought no one cared. Thus he
lived for the nine years he was with the
company.

to prominence in the business and political
life of his home city. Suddenly, one day,
the investigation had come. He knew it

cursed himself thousand times for that
cowardice. He might have taken his pun

legations, and become man again. But
that chance has passed. In his home city
to-day they believe that he is dead; the
reward that was offered for his apprehen-
sion has lapsed. And dead he will remain.
Perhaps in this present war he has had his
opportunity to prove that he is not
coward at heart. Perhaps he may have
fallen on the field of battle, or been dec
grated with the Victoria Cross. But, il
glory has come to him, it has come
