Moorc's RiaIto-"The Bishops
EmeruIds.-

A picture of amazing splendor. in
addition to Its unusually strong plot
and cast. delighted the thousands who
yesterday saw the first local show
inSs of THE Bishops Emeralds" at
Moore's Rialto Theater. Not the least
of the factors contributing to the
excellence of this new photodrama is
the capable work of Miss Virginia
Pearson. who plays the principal fem
mime role.
The Bishops Emeralds" is the pic
turization of the noted novel of the
same name by Capt. Houghton Town
ley 1t Is a daring story about society
life in England, and shows the fall
lacy of wife's attempt to conceal
certain of her past history from her
husband.
Miss Pearson, in the role Of the wife,
performs brilliantly. She wears dur
ing the action of this drama some of
the most wonderful gowns ever is
played on the screen.
A splendid supporting cast Is seen
in Miss Pearson's aid. while the set
tings and photography are Of a uni
formly excellent character.
As usual. subsidiary motion picture
features, including a news reel of
timely interest and a brilliant COM
edy. conclude the cinematogra ohio
portion of the program. while the
Rialto Orchestra plays the overture
"Stradella" in addition to the iegu-
lar program.

Gayety-Matestics.

Fred 1rwin's Majestics opened q
return engagement yesterday at the
Gnyety Theater to two well-filled
houses. Whether the hot weather
or the high class lines of the book
were at fault still remains unsolved,
but it failed to gather the proper
amount of applause from its audi
ences.
Irwin's new attempt is high
class musical production with many
talented artists who hand out num-
bers above the burlesque order,
but for some reason even the song
numbers did not seem to meet with
approval. The book. which is an
up-to-date hodge-podge, appeared
to be trifie far advanced for the
audience. as most of the work of
George Leon. Harry Duncan and
Al Williams went over the heads
of the gathering, while Misses Vir-
giEia Irwin and Franz Marie Lloyd
failed to impress, although their
offerings were far better than the
ordinary run.
Miss Alfaretta Symonds was the
only one that seemed to get the
hand when she put over her effort.
Miss Symonds was exceptionally
clever, but it was an unappreciat-
ing audience that gave Irwin's pro-
duction the once over on its OPEN
ing night of this new production.

PoIi'.-.A Lonely Romeo

Lew Fields comes perilously close
to outZiegfelding Ziegfeld. or out
dazzling the Winter Garden. in his
revival of the golden glories of
those days of a decade back when
he produced The Midnight Sons"
ct al-his revival being "A Lonely
Romeo" which to our minds is the
best come back" performance that
the stage has seen in years.
The typical Fields extravaganza
of eccentric comedy and melody
were the vogue of their time in
the musical comedy world. and then,
between the twin fires of the risque
beg shows" of the Winter Garden
type and the Princess Theater pro-
ductions, they blew up. Now they
are hack with us again. and with
as much punch packed in them as
in the days of their halcyon prime.
if THE Lonely Romeo" disclosed
at Polls last evening. is a pace
maker for others to come.
The truth is that Lew Fields is
going into New York >with a show
that will give the 1919 edition of The
Follies hard run for its money, and
probably will run more than even
with any other summer show on
Broadway. The new piece is not as
grotesque or bizarre as The charac-
teristic Fields productions of ten year rs
back. but it is vastly more coIorful
more mslodious, more genuinely fun
ny. II we were to carp and find a
single flaw in it. IT would be that
ii has no Irene Franklin in tho
uproariously funny female of the kind
without which no former Fields pro-
duction was considered complete.
The cast is headed by Lew Fields
himself: n few more years behind
MIN, a trifie more sedate in his
comedy. His company includes the
alluring Frances Cameron, who con-
tributed charms in abundant quanti-
ties as Maize Gay; Violet Watson as
Sybil Trip. and Frank Doane as
Tchabod Wintergreen, Alan Hale as
Gilbert Grant. and q host of others.
The cast contains few big names,
but Is chockful of real ability, and
carries the show swimmingly to sue
cess.
The richness of the setting and the
oewildering shift of colors in the cos
tunes Is the predominant feature of
"A Lonely Romeo" next to the
comedy. The dancing involves a
number of judicious borrowings from
-the ranks of vaudeville and was ex-
oellent of its kind. It Is not difficult
TO foresee a future for this "peppy''
mixture OF Sroth and gambol that
, Lew Fields has concocted. It Is a
rare summers night entertainment.

Crandalrs Avenue Grand-ATeave
II to Susan,

Not all young women left alone with
fox terrier pup in the middle of
the Mojave Desert would extricate
themselves from the predicament as
skillfully as did Susan Burbridge,
daughter OF the railroad magnate. i'm
personated with consummate art by
Madge Kennedy in Leave 1t to Su-
san." the photoplay feature of the
bill at Crandall's Avenue Grand The
ater yesterday. Susan proceeded to
find herself shelter. get herself kid
mapped and held for ransom. and
finally to round up the entire gang
of desperadoes who previously had
held up her train, thus establishing
her right to the privilege OF self
determination. In Susan's case self
determination meant merely marry
ing the young man whom she had
mistaken for one of the outlaws, but
who in fact was one OF her fathers
secret operatives sent out to discover
why gold shipments were going wrong
and for a few other hazardous things
like that.
Leave 1t to Susan" Is frankly a
melodramatic comedy of the more or
less wild West. Miss Kennedy lends
the central role a verve that makes
IL charming.

New MoOn.-

"Tootsies and Tamales" is the al
lucrative but not especially illumi-
mating title of one of the funniest
film comedies of recent release
which throughout its brief length
convulsed audiences at Crandalps
Knickerbocker Theater yesterday,
where it constituted one of the
lighter parts of a photoplay bill of
exceptional entertainment value.
The ridiculous developments unreel-
ed during the cyclonic action of
this frivolous farce served to sup
ply effective contrast to the less
ribald recital disclosed during the
progress of the latest issue of the
news pictorial, which completed the
subsidiary portions of the pictured
pastime and an even more valuable
antidote for the thrilling tenseness
of "The New Moon" the major
feature of the bill.
THE New Moon" Is q picture
which grips attention with the sure
ity and firmness of a wise and affords
Norma Talmadge one of the most
fruitful opportunities she has had.
Her role is that of Princess Marie
of Russia's royal house, who is

Bolshevists to seek oblivion in the

before audiences at Moore's Garden
Theater. In this vehicle. wherein
Miss Nesbit returns to the screen

The story is of Hawaiian prin-

with it poignant grief.

photodramas of the year. in which
Marguerite Clark was screened as

Theater yesterday.
In the role of the young bride who

Hod Filler Declares He Can Win Games
 Without Shine Ball

Hod Eller has come forth with a statement to the effect that he doesn't care one way or another what the rule makers do in the matter of the shine ball. Hod admits that he has used a 'shfner'' for three years, but hints that his success has been due, not to this delivery, but to some thing far more subtle He won't re- veal the secret just yet. He says so himself.
 T have purposely advertised my sinner by continually rubbing the ball on my trousers in order to cover up the best part of my pitching pro- gram" says EIler. By rubbing the ball every time I got hold of it I made the batters look only for sinners. The real secret of what sue cess l have attained has not been due to the shine ball, but to something which I intend to keep secret for the present. No, it's not due to the resin l carry in my hip pocket. That is just to keep my fingers dry. do not doubt in the least that I will have more success next year that did last year, even if all freak piching is barred, because my skill in foolfng batters does not depend on anything or any of my teammates do to the ball.
 How modest our Little Hod is. eh?
