WASHINGTON,

One of the early plays of. the late
Charles E. Klein has come to the
screen in "Heartsease." Tom Moore's
newest Goldwyn picture, which is
playing at the Washington theatre.
Mr.. klein's ability to tell powerful
love story against a background of
intrigue is exemplified in this story
of young musical genius whose op-
era is stolen by nobleman and pro-
duced as the latters work
AS an example of excellent picture
telling, "Heartsease" owes much to
the splendid work of Director Harry
Beaumont, who developed many I'M
usual effects to heighten the dramatic
contrast between the impoverished
genius in love with a titled woman
on the one hand, and a scallawag
( nobleman with a thirst for fame, on
the other. The clash of these two
forces, in number Of thrilling scenes,
together with the portrayal by Tom
Moore of the baffled genius who is
completely enmeshed in intrigues of
| which he is the victim, make Hearts
ease" an exceptional picture.
| In the cast, Helen Chadwick plays
the lead opposite Tom Moore. An old
| favorite of the screen, Rosemary The.
| by is seen in the dramatic role of a
| dowager who seeks to pose as the
| patroness of musical genius Those
who have seen Miss Theby in her
many other screen plays, know that
hers is a dominating dramatic person

DEFEAT

Reporters from newspaper offices
hurried to the scene, with police
cards" stuck in their hatbands. From
Park row and Nassau street and ali
the narrow lanes nearby they came,
everybody asking everybody what the
matter was
None too gently the policemen
drove the massed women down the
city hall steps and across the asphalt
ed square in the direction whence
they came. The women, shouting and
protesting, pushing at the officers and
crying out that their children were
starving and the mayor should give
US bread" were finally dispersed and
subdued. Wherever one spoke suffi-
cient English to be coherent she was
surrounded by group of eager news

Annie, on the fringe of the process
sion from the start detached herself
at the outset of the commotion and
stood trembling with excitement
watching the hullaballo. She came in
for her share of shoves and pushes
as the police kept the crowd in mo-
ton, too absorbed in the proceedings
TO heed She heard a reporter say
that Helena Weitz, the leader of the
housewives horde. had been arrested.
She heard the clang of the patrol
wagon as it sped away.
After that the women broke up and
in pathetic little groups began strag-
Cling eastward, talking excitedly to
one another, rewrapping their shawls

Annie. How stupidity useless! All
they got was shoves and abuse, arrest
for one of them, laughter and insult
for all from a crowd that loved "a
scrap" enjoyed their unsuccessful as
sault upon the executive head of the
city, and would view them in future
with more contempt and less under
standing than ever!
On her way home to the children
and her dinner getting, Annie kept
saying over and over to herself:

Annie wasn't sure about the mayor.
She wondered if he could help if he

The poor, dirty peddlers whose carts
had been overturned were not to

mayor could have done something fol-

Clifford Tells Butler Secret About Elizabeth And

evening Of the departure Of the latter
for the west her thoughts would have
been even more agitated than they
were. Butler was certain that Cliff
ford Chaplin had some Interior motive
for suggesting that he drive a part of
the way to Midland with him. He did
not suspect what this motive was, but
was rather curious - find out. His
Instinct told him that it was con-

whom he knew as Ciiffords cousin.
Perhaps. he nused. the farmers

himself that even II it were possible

py with him or in tie set to which he
belonged. but he appreciated that such
arguments were futile
The one thing OF which he was abb
solutely sure was that with each pass

until he had driven TO the Four Cor

During the three miles before the
pair in the automobile reached the
SPOT designated Clifford had talked
rapidly about himself and his bust

ainusements-in short about almost
everything that he knew except the
suo5ect which just now was upper
most in his mind.
Butler listened, making only an
occasional comment. determined not to
question his companion. but to force
him 10 introduce the business mat
ter TO which he had referred earlier

At last. as they approached the
junction OF the four roads. Butler re-
minded the driver that his part of the
