Garrick-Irving Cummings In ~rhe
Misleading Lady"


Irving Cummings, the Garrickers,
photoplay favorite, bloomed forth in
a role at the Garrick last night that
marks his high-water mark of ro-
mantle endeavor and it is not diffi-
cult to believe that THE Mislead-
ing Lady" the three-act romantic
comedy by Charles Goddard and
Paul Dickey, may easily prove one
of the finest and most compelling
bits of play Interpretation the F
street stock organization has con-
tributed this season.
Cummings, however. is very near
ly the complete performance In The
Misleading Lady" He is a cave
man in a dinner jacket, a scorner
of the social bulwarks, man with
dangerous way with the ladies.
This player has a strong. command
ing stage presence but IL requires a
play of a strongly romantic type to
enable him to rise to the full
stature of his romantic acting pow
ers and THE Misleading Lady" is
just that kind of a play.
Cummings is seen in the first act
as a gentleman selected by a very
charming young -ingenue for the dis.
play of her captivating power, de-
spite the fact that she is already
engaged to a rather luckless fellow
not without a certain force of his
own. The lady of the story thor.
oughly entrances her subject but he
refuses entirely to take the matter
as a joke and when she comes down
to apologize. II is rather evident
that the ladys captivating charms
were more or less earnest and not
altogether in fun.
Regret however, soon turns to
Indifference on the part of the giri,
who is scorned by the man in his
bitterness, but when her taunts
become a bit unbearable and she
suggests that he study women in
the concrete rather than in the
abstract, he decides to make her
his first experiment, and without
more ado sweeps her off stage into
a motor car and the curtain rings
down with a swish.
Act II reveals the two in his
mountain cabin, and it also reveals
Napoleon Bonaparte, rather
balmy gentleman from an adjacent
sanitarium, whose frequent and
: MY SltIlOuS tAlSl5 ana entrances ana
whose sad, sad lapses into a dream
of the empire constitute the chief
comedy material of the perform
ance. Here the lady. bitter and
scornful of her captor. is placed
under the microscope, as it were.
and he proceeds to the business Of
ridding her of many silly notions,
among which is the idea that she
hates him.
Now the manner in which this is
accomplished is a matter for reve-
lation at the GarriCk. It wouldn I
be fair to spoil the story. 1t is.
however, a light, effervescent tale
of man-and-girl-and Napoleon mad
ness. and it is precisely the sort of
a comic, romantic, happy ending
story that goes with the best or
summer stock.
Miss Anne Hamilton blossomed
forth as the girl in the story. She
appeared to charming advantage.
and although there was a slight
first night lack of co ordination
here and there the romantic theme
of the story was emphasized with
care and force. L. NJ. Bell easily
captured the comedy honors of the
evening with his performance of
Napoleon. The cast is long, and
includes the two Crosson sisters.
Margaret and Theresa, the latter
making her first bow from any
stage last night.

Shortage of Fuel Carriers
Is Blamed on Spec

PubIie Ledger Service.D

As the next step in their cam
paign for better car supply to over
come the existing shortage in soft
coal, the National Coal Association
is urging the Interstate Commerce
Commission to take drastic steps to
regulate the distribution of open
top car equipment to small, country
wagon" mines, according to an an
nouncement yesterday.
The coal association estimated
that there were 5000 mines of this
character throughout the bitumi-
nous coal fields, all of which have
sprung into activity during the coal
shortage emergency.
Mines Isolated.
These so-called wagon mines
which are a considerable factor at
this time in the speculative field, are
located from one-half mile to five
miles away from a railway switch "
said a statement issued by the coal
association, "and have to haul their
output by wagon or motor truck to
the tracks. The mines, having only
a small tonnage, draw upon the rail-
roads daily for equipment, tying up
cars at the switches because of their
necessarily slow method of loading
the coal. Hundreds of cars which
are needed to overcome the shortage
in equipment in movements from
the soft coal fields where facilities
exist for quick loading and expedi-
tious handling of the output, are in
this way tied up.
"Adyices from bituminous coal
fields throughout the country show
that in nearly every field snow
bird or mushroom mines. ordinar-
lily not in operation. have sprung
into existence within the past few
months, and that these mines are
selling coal through spectators at
exorbitant prices way beyond those
prevailing at the larger mines.
This effort of the operators is
allied 10 that aimed at the eIimina-
tion of the abuse of the reconsigned
car privilege by spectators"

Loew's Columbin-EIaine Hammer
stein I'm .'The Point of yiew.-


1T all depends on where you sit"
is an old saving which most aptly
describes Elaine Hammerstefn's
latest Selznick picture, THE Point
of View" which is the headline at
traction at Loew's Columbia for the
first four days of the present week.
Miss Hammerstein is seen in this
production as the daughter of a once
wealthy father. The girl is the
only practical member of a family
who have never had to provide for
themselves and who consequently
are completely lost when adversely
strikes them. Hitherto the Thorn
croft family have always looked
down upon anyone not born of the
blood, but their point of view is
changed by a big-hearted young
Westerner who capably demon
strates to them that when a friend
is needed IL is red blood that counts
far more than blue.
The Point of View" is one of
those common sense" pictures that
avoids all extremes of theatricalism
and puts over its point by the real
true-to-life situations IT depicts
The story is by Edith Ellis and Alan
Crosland directed the picture.
Rockliffe Fellows, Arthur House
man, Hugh Huntley, Cornish Beck
and Warren Cook are among those
who support Miss Hammerstein in
this fine screen play.
The featured attraction at Loew's
Columbia this week is splendidly
supplemented and amplificd by
long and thoroughly engrossing
array of added attractions and the
program is one no true lover of
photoplay entertainment can afford
TO miss.

Malsnn's AMfnl Threat.

(From the New York Times.l
Tho Hon. Thomas Watson OF
Georgia has temporarily given up his
speaking campaign. Something has
gone wrong with his throat. This
shows that illness does not always
strike a man in his weakest organ.
Watson's pen. however, is mightier
than hiis voice; and period of en-
forced silence will not matter so long
as he can write and print such q
stirring call to the people as lately
appeared. duly italicized, in his news
paper, The Columbia Sentinel. The
following is merely one note of his
bugle blast:
Secession was shot down in a four
years war in which our fathers
fought and died; secession is now to
become our solemn duty, imposed
upon us by our perjured President
and BY the international bankers and
manufacturers of Europe, Asia ant
Africa
This, the reader will perceive. i
what the Hon Top proposes to do 4
this country joins the League o
Nations. He will rise up and indig
nantly take Georgia right out of thu
Union. If he would go with 1t, tht
other States might be tempted, aftel
a few of Watson's exhibitions in tn,
Senate, to say. with measure o
relief; "Erring sister, depart Il
peace"
