 The Triangle offers William Des- mond in "The Iced Bullet" today and tomorrow.
 Aside from the general merit of the play, which is excellent, unusual in- tcrest attaches from the fact that one reel is devoted to happenings at the great Triangle studios at Inceville. It shows the frantic efforts of scenario writer to sell his play The scenario writer is William Desmond, who dreams that his scenario was accepted and he plays the leading role.
 The Iced Bullet is a sort of pie ture play within a picture play, and the public will know much more about the inside workings of moving pie ture studio after seeing this play
 KERRIGAN VERY EXCLUSIVE.
 Pity poor lonely Warren Kerrigan, an unwilling victim of his own per sonaI charms He has been compelled to sign contract with his new man agers that he will obscure himself from human gaze and companionship; h fC
 Listen to some of the provisions of this devilish agreement: In travelling he must confine himself to the draw ing room of the Pullman; he cannot go into the club car or the observa tion platform; he cannot have his meals served in the regular dining car but must keep far away from the cur ious-eyed travellers. Arriving at his destinaXon. he must immediately .en- ter clSsed automobile, draw the cur tains and break the speed limit to his hotel. And he must remain in his close ly guarded suite until the limousine with the drawn shades again whisks him to his next destination. And there are a lot of other exclusions in the contract which tend to make this pop ular star about as exclusive as the Czar of all the Russias.
 MT. Kerrigan will make his first public debut in Birmingham tomorrow afternoon and evening as the guest of the Strand theatre. Manager Aber- nethy invites you to come out and shake hands with his guest
