company while doing a scene in The

san Bernardino E,Uuntains. But alas!
When they discovered it was only
grease paint they were mad.
John barrymore is a very busy
man. In fact, he is about twice as
busy as he has ever been before. The,

those who sincerely feels her part.
She recently attended a performance
of Bella Donna in New York in
which she was starred. To her inn

Bella Donna was unbroken by a single
hand-clasp. IF anyone had applaud

also world-famed stage fayorite,
were recently married. as has been
previously announced. Their romance,

the Lasky studios, and afforded much
amusement for the rest of the players.
The incidents of their courtship were
many. but one was particularly anus

in which Miss Farrar is starred, the
real event that ended the courtship
happened Teeliegen was an odd
spectator during the various scenes Of
the film. In the final scene where
Carmen was stabbed by Don Jose.
Miss Farrar put more realism into the
scene than anybody about the studio

away, was all absorbed in the tragedy,

This Carmen" production had many
exciting mishaps, some of them so
vital that the board of censorship re-
moved part of the film. In the arena
where mad bulls were rushing at the
toreadors, before 10000 spectators,
one brave Mexican fell, and was gored
by mad bull. 1t had. been prom
ised that there should be no casual
ties, and the great bull-fight would be
spectacular but not fatal, upon the
strength of which license was grant
ed. Although the camera caught the
entire performance, this serious mis-
hap was cut from the film. However,
there is thrill aplenty, and in fact the
entire play, which was reviewed here
yesterday, is tense with excitement,
of the kind that cements the eye upon
