"Salome," presented by William
Fox, with Theda Bara as the star,
began its engagement of two days
at the Opera House last night.
The tremendous sweep of this pro-
duction mounts to the final awful
climax with the sure precision of a
Greek tragedy. In the blood-stained
career of the ruthless Princess, the
murder of the High Priest, the exc
cution of the Queen and the suicide
of Sejanus have removed all but one
barrier to Salome's triumph. That
barrier is John the Baptist. But his
Offense is the greatest of all, for he
has scorned her love.

as she runs in fury from the stern
prophet into the throne room of
Herod.
With deadly intent, Salome begins

and cries, "Give me the head of

Then comes the most powerful
scene ever presented to an audience
in the history of the stage. The head
of John the Baptist is carried to Her
DDS throne. Salome, lying like wrig-
Cling serpent among the silken rugs
creeps towards the charger-gloat-
ing, laughing in fendish glee. 81

A mighty wind suddenly rises and
shrieks through the vast hall.

WINNING HIS WIFE"

In order to see a galaxy of stars
like Cyril Maude, Violet Heming

and Capt Fred Lloyd, it would be
necessary to see three or four sepa-
rate dramas or motion pictures, and
neither Cyril Maude or David Bis
pham or Louise Closer Hale has ever
appeared in pictures. However, they
the Opera House in the Stage Wom-
ems War Relief photo-playlet "Win-
ming His Wife," which was written
especially for their use by Katherine
Kavanagh. The object of the Stage
Women's War Relief in nutting out
this series of pictures is to build a
specially equipped theatre for the
amusement of convalescent soldiers
at the big debarkation hospital in
New York. The screen offered the
best possibilities for realizing the
large amount in the shortest time.
The first playlet of the series has
created widespread interest in this
unique project and has proven a tre-
mendous success. The second in the
series bears out the promise of the
first, not only in the noted names
which it contains, but in the clever
little drama which was written to
show their possibilities. Every one
will want to see how Robert Wheeler
wins his beautiful wife whom his own
absorption in business was driving
into the arms of his best friend.
Katherine Kavanagh has advanced a
purely original solution of this prob
lem, which is an angle of the eternal
triangle.
