Miss Ferguson plays three roles. tho

and her remarkable versatility dis
plays itself oaptiyatingly In esch
characterization. The costumes worn
by the star are typical OF each period
and eacn will prove a powerful at

Ferguson.
In the story Miss Ferguson has the
role of a girl born out Of wedlock

experience, she learns to love
worthy man with whom she minds hap

BLICHTED LOVE Is HIS
SPECIALITY; HE LIKES IT

He is a young man, tolerably rich
and quite handsome. Yet he claims
to have been disappointed in love
more times than any other youth in
America. His name is Casson Fer
guson, and every few. weeks he is
turned down by some sad-eyed young
woman and his heart blighted. Yet
he is smilingly cheerful withal.
You see, it all happens on the mo-
tion picture screen, young Mr.. Fergu-
son being one of those movie people
who seems particularly qualified by
nature to play disappointed lover
roles. The last time he did it was in
"The Prince Chap" William De
Miles production, which opens its
second consecutive week OF showing
at Moore's Garden Theater tomorrow.
For four reels Mr.. Ferguson seems
to have an excellent chance for the
hand of lovely Lila Lee, who plays the
heroine. but in the final scene along
comes Thomas Meighan. and carries
off the maiden.
ITS tough luck admitted Mr..
Ferguson recently, but I'm getting
resigned to 1t no-'. And perhaps it's
some consolation to know that in real
life don't fare nearly so badly"

SAYS MALE VAMPS MORE
ADEPT THAN The OTHERS

, There appears to be a popular mis-
conception OF vampires. or rather a
very decided conception on the part
OF the public, that does not begin to
cover nor classify the various
species" said Miss Constance Tai
madge in a recent interview.
The topic under discussion was Con-
MES latest First National attraction.
'"The Perfect Woman" which opens a
weeks engagement at Moore's Rialto
Theater beginning tomorrow.
Miss Talmadge believes that the art
of vamping Is by no means confined to
the ladies, but that men, as a rule, are
far more adept in the gentle practice.
than the fair sex. Miss Talamdge said
smilingly: "In writing the story OF
THE Perfect Woman" John Emer-
son and Anita Loos hit upon big psy-
Geological truth. The story is built
around young girl who is madly in
love with woman hater. The girl
practically throws herself at him,
without as much as a how-do-you-
do by way of recognition.
Now. the law of skilled vampires
is "indifference"-an inviting person

frigidity, That is where popular con-
ception takes a mighty tumble. Opin-
ion based on hearsay has 1t that vam-
pires have a certain inveigling system
Il believe that's all wrong.
THE girl who builds a glacial wall
around herself is going to be friend

ling motives she is going to find her

There is an established precedent

$4,000 ROBBERY
ENDS TRIP HOME
Alex HoIud, Who Did Not Trust
Bank, Robbed of Savings
Desired to Return to Europe

Another foreigner, living in this
city who did not trust the bank with
his savings. has come to grief and,
despite the fact that he had planned
to be on the high seas today home
ward bound to his native land with
about $500, his savings from money
made in America. he is still in Perth

During the night thieves entered the
house and departed with the money

to his landlord.

RED WITNESS
KILLS HIMSELF
Jumps From 14th Story OF
Dept. of Justice Building in.
New York to Death Below
BIZ The ssociqted Press


NEW YORK, May 3:--Andre sal
sedo, thirty years old, detained by
the department OF justice as witness
against radicals involved in the bomb
outrages last June, committed sulclde
today by hurting himself from the
fourteenth story window of the
building where the department head
quarters are located.
He is believed to have evaded his
charge by obtaining permission to go
to his Washroom. From there he
jumped clad only in his underclothes
Salsedo was to be given a further
examination today by the department
agents. 1t is believed that he chose
death in preference to going into
court and testifying against other
bomb plOtters.
Chief William J. Flynn of the de-
partment, said today Salsedo was one
of several anarchists arrested in con-
nection with the bomb explosions of
June last, which included the homes
of Judge Charles G. Mott, of general
sessions court in New York and At
torney General Palmer at Washington.
Chief Flynn said that Salsedo and
other government witnesses had ex-
pressed fear of being murdered by
the anarchist plotters IL it became
known they had confessed. At their
own suggestion quarters were ar
ranged for them in the Park Build
ing. There they slept and had their
meals and they did not leave the
building except for exercise.
Salsedo's wife was allowed to visit
him frequently. She is said to have
spent much of yesterday with him.
News of Salsedo'S death will give the
first information to some of his for
mer confederates, Chief Flynn said.
that some of the conspirators had
been for long time in custody and
might cause them to go into hiding
or take especial pains to elude the
government agents who have been
watching them. Enough is known,
however, according to Flynn, so that
none of the principals can long
escape.
From Chief Flynn and n. c. Don
ado Salsedo's lawyer, 1t was learned
that circulars found at the time OF the
explosion when attempts were made
on the lives of public men had been
printed in Brooklyn. where Salsedo
was employed.
According to Flynn the suicide Of
Salsedo will not effect the govern
ments case and through information
supplied by him important arrests
may be expected.
At police headquarters it was ad-
mitted two other arrests We're made
before Salsedo was taken into Gus
tody. The first man arrested was
Robert ELLA. of Brooklyn. according
to the police.
On information said to have been
supplied by ELLA Vito Marrlani an
Italian laborer. was taken into Gus
tody. The police say he admitted he
was an anarchist and supplied infor-
nation on which Salsedo was arrest
ed.
