cd to marry Angela, confronts Piotro
with the accusation that he murder
ed his wife. Angela overhears and
to clear his name, Pietro. calls Teresa
and presents her as his wife.
Teresa makes amends In part by
telling OF her disappearance on the
night OF the supposed murder ana
the successful efforts OF the district
attorney TO prevent her from APP
pearlng' I'm court. Her recital leaves
much for Oliphant to explain. Young
Oliphant insists on accepting Angela
as his bride. and Teresa Is induced
to leave when she Is furnished with
funds TO employ attorneys TO defend
her illegal husband. who has been
charged with murder.
Pietro and Angela, again In the
quiet of their home. turn To the
glass window, which Is uncovered TO
disclose the figure of the girl. Pietro
sends her to young Oliphant, and
settles back In his chair to smoke his
evening pipe in a peace that passeth
all understanding.
Mr.. Skinner gives q most artistic
performance as Pietro. The Italian
character Is not new TO the artist, he
having appeared last season In a
similar role In Mister Antonio" As
the lmpulsive alien, speaking only
Italian, in the prolog, he was ex-
ceptionally impressive. Turnout the
play he spoke in broken accents, his
Italio- Enc lish being perfect. In his
dramatic scenes he rose to great
heights and made Pietro Twins
character.
Miss Rose, whose years on the
stage have been few, displayed great
natural talent as Angela and her
future is one of great promise.
Miss Mary Shaw as Teresa, most
unsympathetic role, looked and acted
the part to the life. The role is a
congenial one for Miss Shaw, who
has done her best work in similar
parts. especially Mrs. Warren in
Bernard Shaw's Mrs. Warrens Pro-
fession."
o. B. Clarence, as Alfred Peyton;
Thurlow Bergen, as Keith Oliphant,
and Robert Ames, as Keith Oliphant
Jr., were very good in their respec
tive roles.
"Pietro" has been given an ex-
cellent production, the settings for
the play, showing the terrace of the
Barban- Peyton estate, being es-
pecially good.

At the Casino,

The redeeming feature of the cur
rent program at the Casino are
Patio News and ali episode of The
Black Secret" featuring Pearl White.
Many interesting and instructive
scenes are shown in the news review
and the serial continues to hold ones
interest with its many thrilling ad-
ventures. Dangerous Waters,
featuring William Desmond, and the
Al Jennings film are not up to
standard.
Dangerous Waters" is a satire on
the high jinks of the idle rich, in
which a healthy out-of- doors chap
proves the shallowness of their liv-
ing and thereby wins back the wan
ing love of his sweetheart. Des-
mond's portrayal of the hero is very
good and Marguerite DaLaMotte APP
pears to advantage as the girl, but
the screening and producing of the
picture is poor. The supporting cast
is nothing exceptional. Altogether
the program at the Casino is quite
mediocre.

AMUSEM ENTS,
Otis Skinner Scores Artistic Success
In Wordy Drama.


Otis Skinner, one Of the foremost
actors Of the English speaking stage,
came to the Odeon Wednesday night,
his first appearance in this city for
more than two years. Altho theater-
gOers have repeatedly expressed a
desire to see Otis Skinner, his visit
failed to bring them out, and he was
greeted by only a small audience.
1t is to be suspected that many who
claim a liking for artistic dramatic
work chose rather to attend jazz
opera.
Mr.. Skinner gives a most artistic
performance in the title role of
"Pietro," a new play In a prolog and
three acts, by Mrs. Maud Skinner
and Jules Eckeru Goodman. but the
play is a bit wordy and might carry
a greater appeal If the action was
increased. The star has been sur
rounded with a most capable cast,
including Mary Shaw, who has been
a star in her own right; William
hove played leads in many New
York productions, and Miss Ruth
Rose. the talented daughter of
Edward f. Rose, the playwright, who
displays great dramatic talent in the
leading feminine character.
"Pietro" Is an unusual play, hav-
ing as its chief character an i'm
pulsive Italian immigrant who is
tried on a charge of numbering his
wife Teresa. Pietro and his wife
have been heard quarreling and later
Pletro is discovered on the ground
unconscious, covered with blood,
grasping bloody knife. Pietro
admits when questioned, that mad
dened by his wife's attack on his
dog and his baby daughter, he
wrested the knife from her and
struck at the woman. He knows
nothing more. He Is acquitted by
the jury and cuddling his baby in his
arms wanders into the night.
Eighteen years pass and Pietro
now known as Peter Barban. a mil
lionaire. lives with his beautiful
daughter Angela on the Pacific coast.
He lives at ease and perfect peace.
with Angela and Alfred Peyton, his
business associate. who devotes
much of his time to the propagation
Of plants.
Angela has been taught to believe
her mother was a saint, and as a
surprise to her father has a young
artist do stained glass window for
the chapel of the estate as = a
memorial to Teresa. The window
completed, is to DE unveiled : on
Angelas birthday. The nature OF
the work has been kept secret from
Pietro. The artist, however, proves

as district attorney, prosecuted the
immi grant Pietro for murder. The

Italians daughter. Discovering the
identity of Peter Barban he sets
about the task of separating the
young lovers.
The long missing Teresa, who has
led an existence of shame for
eighteen years, appears to beg
money from Pietro. Her unexpected
appearance enrages Pietro who
again attempts to end her life. but
he IS baked by Peyton. Pietro
