The Theatres
WONDERFUL STARTS
AT IDAHO THEATRE

Fashionable Palm Beach, Florida,
and aristocratic Riverside Drive, New
York City, figure prominently in
"Glorias Romance" the big motion
picture novel that starts Wednesday
matinee at the Idaho theatre. Billie
Burke, the famous international stage
favorite, has the leading role in this
new motion picture, and it is expected
she will score a triumph even greater
as a film actress than she did when
appearing on the speaking stage Man
ager Williams of the Idaho theatre,
had to outbid all competitors in order
to secure "Gloria's Romance" for his
patrons, so tremendous is the demand
for the picture among theatre man
ayers.
In the first two chapters of the story
Miss Burke will appear in a Lucille
frock, a suit of boys clothes, some
dainty pajamas, a $275 negligee, the
garb of Seminole Indian squaw, and
another Lucille gown. During the
course of the production she will wear
more than $4,000 worth of Henri Ben
del, Lucille and Balloon frocks, besides
coat of Russian sable valued at $751;
000 blue and gold and metal embroid-
cred evening coat trimmed with silver
fox fur, and a dinner gown trimmed
with lace that was priced at $3.50 per
yard.
The full company spent more than
three weeks at that aristocratic re-
sort in getting the scenes in which
appear many notables of the world of
fashion, who thought it great lark to
work before a motion picture camera.
Stage settings of real lumber are
being used in many of the scenes of
"Gloria's Romance" The director
found that the use of actual lumber in
stead of mere compo-board, covered
with wallpaper, such as is ordinarily
used in picture studios, would give
much better Photographic effects-for
the shadows are genuine and an OPP
portunity is afforded for matching all
interior decorations perfectly.
Read the first installment of this be-
witching story in this issue of this
paper.

Of Steps Leading to the Fight In

is S. Morey, wounded in the Carrizal
fight, is safe, after his daring stand
against the Mexicans and herois sac

came in here tonight to General Per

the Eleventh cavalry, which is scout

Of the Mexicans probably must be add

cording to the report. The belief has
now become almost confirmed that
they wandered out on the desert and
persisted.
From Major Jenkins's report and
the notebook of Captain Morey and
Captain Boyd, which have been recov-
cred, the facts of the fight are just
about as they have previously been
stated.
Captain Morey fell to the sands and
believed himself dying 1t was then
he wrote his report, and giving it to
the soldiers with him, ordered them to
leave him, and, if possible, save their
own lives and deliver his account OF
the battle to General Pershing.
