 The famous woman of mystery, La Belle Masque. appeared in an Egyp- tian. La Belle was clothed principal ly in a black mslz and two black jet ankle bracelets
 The setting of the scenes for the third act was done in full view of the audience, and will explain to many the reason for the long waits be- tween acts at the theatre
 The third act with Clay Clement Miss Alice Clements as sleep walkers would bring a laugh from the most hardened theatregoer. The sketch was written by MT. Clement and was called Fate" There didn't seem tc be any particular plot but as a bit o1 comedy 1t was unusually good.

QUEEN MARY IN MOVIES.

London. Jan. 14-London Is eager ly waiting to see a picture play called "Women Who Win, for Queen Mary is making her debut therein as q movie actress. The film is being pre- pared under the auspices of the British Women's Service, of which Lady Frances Balfour Is president. It will be shown simultaneously in England and the United States.
 The Queens part in the play Is to talk to the heroine, who is supposed to be engaged on airpiane work. She had made herself familiar with the scenario and knew her role well.
 The scene was set at an aircraft exhibition in Agricultural Hall. The operators began to turn the cranks of their cameras and the Queen moved slowly toward the spot where the heroine was seated. She talked to her for several moments, and then, still according to the scenario, shook her warmly by the hand" But, to the dismay of the producers, the Queen then walked out of the picture before the scene was finished. One of her ladies in waiting explain ed the situation, and with smile the Queen completed the scene.

PLAZA
(Review.l

Tn passing comment on the feature photoplay. The Light of Western Stars" in which Dustin F,~num plays the leading role, we must up hold the statements made by the trade papers, that 1t Is far above the average picture which one sees now adayS It vibrates with tense situa- tons and strikes an intelligent as well as popular appeal. Its grandeur of scenery is a positive delight, Dus tin Farnum realizes every demand made upon him and his vivid portrayal of the wild but lovable Gene Stewart should meet with the heartiest com mendation from picture patrons, The stc--- of the pla-. is taken from the zslpe Grey novel ef The Essazs Bafne. Az A rule, 1 do not like tho average Western story because it actually teens with Impossibilides, but I must say that I was very pleased with this picture.
 The vaudeville is of a very high or der. Topped by Gene Leighton and her Minstrel Revue it abounds with neatness and novelty This offering of Miss Leighton's almost brings one back to the days of Lew Dockstater and George Primrose, because two of the members of the act are veterans of those days. This production, while following the general outlines of a minstrel piece, is replete with catchy song numbers ably sung and goodly amount of jokes, all new ones which was a relief to me. The harmony of the quartet is worthy of special men ton. Next honors go to Q cute little violin;ste, Jennie Middleton, who ren- ders a number of classical and pop u!ar selections in an artistic manner. Her rendition of "aiy Wild Irish Nose" and "Hindustan" from the Winter Garden show were especially well done. The audience were very apreciative Of this offering. Winchell and Green have a neat little song and dance revelation. They were well re- ceived- The Pierettos offer a high class dancing and aerial act. They have a first class act and the little aerial work they do is quite difficult

This stuff about the talkative barber ls all wrong, it appears. A barber writes Seattle Post-Intelligencer pro- testing against further misrepresen. tation. It is the customer who insists upon opening his heart, he writes. and the poor barber Is obliged to listen to all manner of confidential batter, home troubles, scandals, and occasionally the customer spills bum tip on the stock market and the barber goes broke.
