 THE ICED BULLET AT TRIANGLE.
 Aside from the cleverness of the theme and the splendid acting, photography and attention to details in William Desmond latest picture play, now showing at the Triangle, the showing of a cross section of the great Triangle studios should in itself put his picture across
 Desmond, taking the part of a conceited actor and playwright, visits the studio to sell a scenario. He doubts not of its immediate acceptance and of his royal reception. He butts into the acting of big scene and causes all manner of trou- ble. The general everyday scenes in and about this mammoth Ince plant are de- pcted. But the whole play is good and well worth seeing.
