WILLIAM FARNUh At
MAJESTIC TWO DAYS

"A Man of Sorrow" the William Fox
production starring William Farnum
at the Majestic Monday and Tuesday, Is
based on the celebrated stage sue
cess, "Hoodman Blind" 1t deals with
a man who marries one of two sisters
who look exactly alike. When he dis
covers his sister-in law in the arms Of
a stranger he assumes that she Is his
wife and leaves home. After wander
ing from place to place in an effort to
find solace for his grief, he event
ually comes upon the sister in law,
who informs him of the fraud which
has been perpetrated on him. Need
less to say, such situation is one of
the utmost dramatic value, nor has
1t been confined to the screen or stage.
There are several cases on record in
actual life in which the lives Of people
have been blighted through mistakes in
identity.
Dorothy Bernard plays the dual role
of sister and sister law and many
opportunities come for this clever little
girl of the screen" to show her ability
in dramatic portrayal of human emo
tions. Mr.. Farnum as Jack Hewitt, a
regenerated product of drink and hus-
band OF Nance Tendon. has probably
his greatest part. He seems to have
been cultured especially for this type
of character where ne can wear a soft
shirt no collar, his sleeves rolled to
his elbows and his curly black hair ex-
posed TO the sun like giant of the
world he goes.
Two acts of vaudeville close the bill
to be followed on Wednesday by the

COMEDY DRAMA TO
BE SHOWN AT ISIS

The Incompatible Jack Barrymore
has played many roles on the screen
including princes, dictators. gentlemen
of extremely elegant leisure and other
interesting types but he has never be-
fore played a crook. This remarkable
characterization he has reserved for
his latest Famous Players Paramount
picture The Lost Bridegroom" which
is the attraction at the Isis Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday. Of course
Barrymore is not bona fide crook in
the picture. He has been hit on the
head by two thugs while returning
from his bachelor dinner on the eve Of
his wedding to Dorothy Hardin, and
has completely lost his memory as a
result Of the blow.
After falling Off dock upon which
he elects to take an impromptu nap,
Bertie-for that is the alias under
which Barrymore travels in this film
stumbles into saloon which is the
headquarters for an assorted gang OF
thieves, holdup experts and card
sharps. Berries entrance into this
hitherto UNEMPLOYED stratum of society
is nothing if not picturesque. His as
sailants stole his overcoat, dress coat
and waisteoat but left his top hat.
So our hero enters the saloon clad in
dress trousers, the upper portion Of his
b. ". DIS and his top hat, carrying
his white shirt over his arm, having
removed that to dry it after his fall
into the river.
The habitues of the saloon see great
possibilities in BERTHE as a gentleman
burglar and they assign him to the job
Of burgling his own fiancees home
without in the least suspecting his
identity When BERTHE and his pals
reach the Hardin home things begin to
happen with startling rapidity. Even
more startling than the rapidly, how
ever, is the concrete incident in which
BERTHE and one of the burglars, locked
in a death grip, plunge down flight

y On Tuesday evening at the Pinney,
1.-THE Barrier the splendid drama by
Rex Beach, will be presented by an ex-
celient cast OF Bosses best amateur
players under the auspices of the Col
lege Women's club Under the direc-
ton Of Mrs. George w Seller, the cast
has been rehearsing for nearly six
weeks and a smooth and finished per-
Torrance is assured THE Barrier is
SO we'll known to people through the
popular novel of that name that it is
not necessary to say anything of the
plot. 1t is one of the few stories of
ALASKAN life in the pioneer days which
has the ring Of truth about it and it
grips the interest from the very start,
The club was fortunate in both Sc
curing Mrs. Seller to direct the per-
Torrance and in the cast which will in
terpret it. Miss Nadine Barada as
Alluna, the sauaw and Mrs. Seller Us
/ Nescia have two of the strongest fe-
male parts of the modern stage and the
deep in expectation of these unusual
type which they have achieved will
mark a performance that is unusually
good as whole. Little Florence Davis
and little Joseph Pence, Jr., as the
two half breed IndiaEs have all the
charm Of their tender years and an
ease which their elders we'll envy them.
John, Regain will be seen as Lieuten-
ant Burrell and has a part which espe-
cially fits him The lovable French Ca
madam, Poleon Doret is in the hands
of Jason Carey, who has already made
friends with the Boise public in "A

doubtful If anyone could give a more
sympathetic portrayal Of the part than
he does. f. r Robb, as mo Greek

which are the joy of all character act
urs and both he and Atherton Gould as

Harry Baker and Fritz HummeI in
the companion parts of Runnion and
Stark have at last found their best
work and If two more inhuman brutes
have ever been portrayed on the local
stage than they picture, it is before
this generation of local players. John
d. Selby in John Gale, the part orig
inally played by Theodore Roberts, has
an opportunity to which he measures
up remarkably and his work in The
Barrier is an assurance that he is
/ renl addition to tho ranks of Bosses
amateur players,
In the last act of "The Barrier the
great fight between stark and Gale is
pulled off and the balance of the east
is sure that ono if not both of the con-

day. Fritz Hummel is a pupil of Nick

A bunch of Villista bandits raided
the town and military camp at Col
umbus, New Mexico, on Thursday
night of last week and killed seven
teen Americans. Col Slocum and a
bunch of soldiers sailed in after them
and chased them several miles into
the interior of old Mexico, which &C.
tion was against orders but was i'm
mediately ratified by the war de-
partment. The Federal government
has finally decided to go into Mexico
and capture Villa, dead or alive, and
the ponderous machinery of war has
been set in motion to that effect.
General Fred Funston is in supreme
command OF the forces down there
and the military censor Is keeping
the movement Of troops a secret, but
right now it looks like the days OF
the bandit chieftain are numbered.
We don't know how you look at this
movement on the part of the United
States, but our guess is that the
poems of Mexico will rise against the
Americans in full force and we will
finally have to take charge of things
down there completely. Such a
movement is strongly denied in ad-
ministration circles, but the people
OF Mexico are liable to force it onto
themselves.
