AT THE AUDITORIUM.

Theda Bara, probably the most
widely known actress in pictures, is
today's attraction at the Auditorium,
appearing in one OF her greatest
successes. The Darling of Paris, -
in which she made such a hit here
last week. The story is founded on
Victor Hugo's famous novel, The
Hunch5ack Of NOtre Dame" and is
filmed with tense dramatic situa-
tions and thrilling incidents Miss
Bara is seen at her very best in the
character of the Gypsy girl. Esmer-
aida. Tomorrow William Fox will
present that great screen william,
Stuart Holmes, in Tangled Lines. -
a production founded on Wilkie
Collins well known book, The
Woman in White" Supporting Mr..
Holmes are Robert b. Mantell. Gen
evieve Hamper. Claire Whitney.
Harry Leone and Louise Rial. The
pictures were filmed in Jamaica. an
ideal location 10 depict Mr.. Collins
story of English life. The British
colony afforded houses OF true old
world architecture, English gardens
and hedges and vine-covered walls.
The lighting facilities at Jamaica
are quite as good as California,
where so many motion pictures are
taken An old English boathOuse
was erected solely for the scene
where Miss Hamper appears in both
her parts, as Anne Caterick and
Laura Fairlie and other scenes are
especially realistic. The SeligTrib-
une weekly will show as usual many
interesting scenes.

Mary PickJord

Latest Picture

Empty hearts. Empty lives.
Empty houses. Poor little rich girl"
In all this We find delightful little
Mary Pickford In her very latest
production. THE Poor Little Rich
Girl" Beginning with Monday aft
ernoon the picture will be shown
continuous during the present
week.
Cast as a little 11-year-old miss.
surrounded with every luxury Of
modern life, Mary longs for love
and ompanionship which even her
father and mother are too selfish 20
give her. Dozens Of real-for-sure
youngsters play with Mary and
standing along with her none are
even half so petite. She engages in
a mud battle with the "toughs" of
the alley who have invaded her con
servatory.
Many amusing predicaments arise
which only Mary. in her inimitable
style, can conceive. The play has
its sad moments, too.
Artificial scenery is ir.ught into
play quite noticeably at times but
the natural beauty OF the other
scenes cause one 10 overlook such
trifies. especially when little Mary
ivaciously dances into view.
The supporting cast is excellent,
and though Mary occupies the main
part in every scene, no one is forced
TO step aside while Mary does her
acting.
AS the play goes. il is only after
little Gwen, as the Poor Little
Rich Girl" is known, is given an
overdose of sleeping medicine by one
OF the maids. that the parents show
a spark of affection for the small
girl.
In her deliTium she wanders
through the wilderness of the tell
tale land, where all things appear
as they really are. Gwen meets all
the familiar figures in her real life,
from two-faced Jane TO Thomas,
who is all ears. Her father is pic
tured as a slave TO Wall street,
decked in an armOr of money and
grinding out money continuously.

AT THE ORPHEUM.

In the days when the Lasalle the
alter, Chicago, was a producing
house for popular musical comedies
there were none more delightful
than The Time, the Place and the
Girl" which is presented at the Or
pheum today. The music was writ
ten by Joseph +. HowarC and is
said to be some of the catchiest airs
from this favorite composers pen.
The musical comedy gives Guy Voy-
er and his supporting company an
excellent chance for amusing and
entertaining situations and the mu-
steal numbers bring out the voices
of the principals and the chorus in
splendid manner.
Wednesdays bill is The Girl
Question" written by the same au-
thor and equally clever from a mu-
steal comedy standpoint. The open
ing scene in a New York cafe brings
out the romance between a head
waitress and the business manag-
er, offering opportunities for many
novel comedy situations
