William Faversham, for more than a
decade one of the most accomplished
of actors, particularly in romantic
roles, has at last appeared in screen
drama, his Washington debut taking
pace at Loew's Columbia Theater yes
terday afternoon in that oldtime ia
vorite, THE Silver King"
MIR. Faversham plays the role of
Wilfred Denver in his usual finished
and graceful manner. but there seems
to be something lacking. as has been
the case with many other famous
stage stars when they essay to work
for the screen. If Mr.. F'aversham is
to be as popular and as fortunate in
the realm of mimetic art as he was on
the speaking stage apparently much
in the former must be learned and
some of the latter must be forgotten.
He is effective in the emotional roles,
but there is something missing in his
romance. The Silver King was one
of the stages most famous melo-
dramas. Wjlfred Denver. Il gay young
English country squire, comes TO
America as d. fugitive from justice be-
cause he believes he has killed a, man.
although entirely innocent of the
crime. He migrates to the great west
and after intense suffering and much
hardship he succeeds in finding for
tune. During mis- days of prospecting
he all but perishes in a desert and his
sufferings turn his hair to silver. Thus
he is called the silver king" He re-
turns to England, rescues his wife and
two children from poverty, proves his
innocence of the crime of which he is
accused, establishes his family in
their old home and all ends happily
Mr., Faversham's supporting cast is
excellent. Barbara Castleman as the
devoted wife is excellent.

METROPOLITAN,

Lafayette. We Come" shown for
the first time in Washington yester-
day at the Metropolitan. is master
piece of moving picture art and a
conception of patriotic fervor. While
the production is not a showing of
war pictures. it's background is the
battlefield, with striking views of the
devastation of cities and towns and
the destruction of country. There is
tender romance woven through its
entirety. in which a young American
composer in France loves and woos a
French maiden. The girl disappears
mysteriousIy. Later he meets a girl
who bears a striking resemblance to
his sweetheart. Then he joins the
American Army and is blinded. but
his sight is restored and he and the
girl are reunited. The play takes its
title from Gen. Pershing's salutation
at the tomb of Lafayette shortly after
the arrival of the American troops in
France. The leading characters are
carried by Dolores Cassinelli and e.
K. Lincoln.

body by aiding the system to turn

take and most of them contain alco-
