POLES

It would be a hard matter to choose between the excellence of the photo drama which heads the picture bill at PolPs theatre for the first part of this vvsel, or the wonderful vaudeville pro- vramme headed by Hadji Sambalo and supporting company in the latest European novelty DThe Haunted House."
 The huge picture feature "The Still Alarm" had it's premier last evening before a. crowded house and created a sensation not alone on account of the hundreds of thrills throughout its entire length, but the clever WorK or the all star cast which play the prlh- cipal roles in the famous melodraTna'
 Susan Tompkins, one of the coun- try's most famous violinists will be an other big feature on the bill. This talented woman has been for con- siderable time the violin soloist with the famous Sousa's band and Is sure +o create a stir in musical circles of Bridgeport.
 senor Westony, the worlds famous nianist and Harriet Lorraine, the Ia mons musical comedy star are another combination of stellar calibre and VII without a doubt be given a big recep' tion by the patrons of the popular playhouse.

EMPIRE

If your sweetheart proved false to you and while protesting to love you, made love to another, would ypu poi son him? This is the problem which Dolores, a Creole girl, the character portrayed by beautiful Pauline Fred erick, in her newest Paramount photo play, "A Daughter of the South, D whcih will be shown at the Empire theatre today and tomorrow, is called upon to solve.
 Dolores is a self-willed young beauty, with strong American ideals, who rebels against being sold to a mealthy suitor from whom she has lit tie, if any affection. When she meets a novelist while praying in church, she looks upon him as the answer to her prayers and instantly showers upon him the wealth of her love. But this chap is cratic to say the least, and when Dolores discovers that he Is be- trothed to another, her hot Latin blood prompts her to resort to poison as the only means for revenging her self upon him for his perfdy.
 The story of "A Daughter of the Old South" is exceedingly thrilling and its heart appeal is exceptionally strong Miss Frederick's portrayel is said tc be unusually artistic and that it vii prove one of her best screen portraits is conceded. She is supported by ex. cellent screen players, her leading man being Pedro de Cordoba, while
 others in the cast are Vera Beresford Mrs. T. Randolph, Rex McDougaIl
 Myra Brooks and J. P. Laffey.

LYRIC

What is without doubt the most, powerful drama ever attempted oy the Poli Players in this city will De +he attraction at the Lyric theatre all this waelz with two performances avery day. During the current season the n11rolic has been greeted by at least a dozen plays which took the great war as a motif in developing their nlots. but it is doubtful if any of these, made a greater or better mn pression than George BroaNhurst drama. '4The Woman on the IndeX'
 which Is announced by the manage ment. w Aside from the title role which Will be portrayed by Miss Alice Clements, the leading lady, one of the ohlel characters in '"The Woman on rne m dex" is that of Henri Delcasse,' a Turco spy and German agent. In the New York production at the 4Sth street theatre this character was taken by George Probert, one ot the best character actors on the stage to- day, Miss Clements will take the character of Sylvia Angot, Whc Tn the prologue Is the wife of thief and later becomes one of the most ett1- cient members of the American Se- cret Service. Every one of the Poli Players will take a part in the pro- duction and owing t5 the large cast several artists will be imported from New York to assist.
 "The Woman ,nn the Index is a tale replete with thrills, sensation and the opportunity for good acting and most every one of the characters is fitting to the personality of the Play CTS. It can also be construed as a clear view into the ways and means of "the eye of the nation" These means are not always pleasant and often call for deep sacrifice on the part of the women operators, several of which have been woven into this powerful drama. The woman in the play Is compelled to apparently sacrt- flee the love of her husband and home and if victory came to the spy would mean total estrangement from those she loved, but although she hesitated she finally placed her country ahead of her personal feelings and plunged into the game with both feet and sue ceeded. Despite the expense of time and money to pUbduce this play here there will be no increase in prices and patrons are advised to make reserva- tons in advance.
