FRITZ LEIBER AT JEFFERSON IN SHAKESPEAEAN PLAYS

The happiest feature of Fritz Ldeb- CTS Shakespearean play. to be pre- sented at the Jefferson Thursday
 Friday and Saturday nights of thls week with matinee Saturday, Is the quickness with which he presents them. Mir Leber has his own meth cd of simple but beautiful scenic arrangements that are arranged with such dispatch that the frequent waits of most Shakespearcan plays are practically eliminated.
 In play of perhaps Is scenes pre- sented as MT. Lieber presents 1t there Is only one real wait. Between the other scenes the house remains dark, and there is only moment, hardly a real pause, before the resuming or the next scene.
 Mir. Lieber Is now one of the most successful actors on the interna- stage, his sensational success in New York last year winning him place in the history of the American stage that bids fair to rank with those of Booth, Barrett, Mccullough and Mansfield. He has spent virtual ly all of his professional life Tn the yortrayel of Shakespearean roles
 and with this thorough training he brings to the playing many new ideas of light and scenic effects. The repertoire will be as foliows:
 Hamlet" Thursday; Merchant of Venice" Friday; Romeo and Juliet"
 Saturday matinee and Macbeth Saturday night.

J. s. DELEGATES ID.
 ARMAMENT FARLEY. BEGIN WORK TODAY.
Four General Subjects, All More or Less lnterWoven, Expected to Hold Atten-
 ton at First Meeting
By Associated Preas

Washington, October 1.-The Amer ican delegation to the armament con ference will begin it's duties here tomorrow by general survey of the international situation into which it Is to embark.
 At a meeting which will bring the four delegates together for the first time since their selection by Presi- dent Harding, data gathered from diplomatic, military and naval sources Is to be laid on the table and & preliminary effort made to predi- cate upon it the broad principles of this governments position in the armament negotiations.
 It is expected to be one of many consultations of the delegation in preparation for the opening of the conference next month. President Harding will take an active role in the preparatory stage, and probably will participate directly in some of the meetings of the delegates. Mili- ftary and naval experts also are to be questioned about the data they submit, and 8 sweeping effort made to provide the American represen- tatives beforehand with compre- hensive understanding of the task confronting them.
 Hughes Issues Call
 The call for tomorroW's meeting was issued today by Secretary Hughes, head of the delegation. Elihu Root, the former Secretary Of state, is expected to come from New York prepared to devote most of his at tenticn henceforth to the work Of the approaching conference, and Senators Lodge and Underwood plan to make the conference preparations their first concern.
 Four general subjects, all more or less interwoven and inter-dependent. are expected to hold the attention of the delegates at their first session. First of all, there will be a broad statement of the national policies for which the government feels bound to stand during the negotiations. X compilation of information as to the exact status of far-eaStern questions is to be submitted as further step toward fully advising the delegates, and data as to the military and na- val situations will be taken up under separate headings.
 Frequent Meetings Expected
 With these four things in mind the delegation is likely to call 1t day
  thresh out ways and means toward the accomplishments with which the armament conference Is charged. Later meetings are expected to be- come more and more frequent as the delegates become better acquainted with the questions before them.
 It is probable that in addition to the military and naval experts, out side members of the advisory com mission will be called in as the work of the delegation progresses. Presi- dent Harding has indicated that about a dozen members would sit on this commission, with perhaps half the membership devoted to the army and navy. It was said at the White House tonight that selection of the members had not been completed. all though 1t was hoped to have the en- tire personnel chosen by the end Of the week.

ANITA STEWART AT TRIANON IN uTHE INVISIBLE FEARo

Anita Stewart plays one of her most attractive roles so far in The in- visible Fear" at the Trianon. It is difficult for there Is marked diff ference in the character In the first part of the story and the last, when the gay young girl and somewhat of a flirt of the first of the story be- comes the subiec of haunting fear. In other words, the role calls on Miss Stewart to change from care-free youth to having good time to womanhood living under terror.
 Gorgeous sets have been provided for the background of the picture, most of the action taking place at n fashionable country club, and in and about an imposing mansion.

"THE INNER vOICE' AT
 ALCAZAR IS FINE DRAMA

E. K. Lincoln Is one of the few actors on the screen who believes that an actor should fit his role in stead of having his roles written for him. The result Of his idea Is that every role in which he Is seen is something different from his others and often they are startling.
 In "The Inner Voice" MT. Lincoln goes, through so many experiences that at the various stages of the drama he is the same man In body but a different man in mind and spirit. In the handling of this many sided characterization he has met with the unanimous praise and ap- proval of critics in all parts of the country.

HAROLD LLOYD COMEDY AND
 EAVERSHAM DRAMA-RIALTO.

William Faversham, in "The Man Who Lost Himself" Is being shown at the Rialto as an additional attrac- ton to Harold Illoyd's comedy, ! Do" These two excellent pictures make an exceptional programme for any motion picture house. being two first class attractions at the same time.
 "The Man Who Lost Himself" Is something more than simply "ffr5t- classed," Tt can be said without TO-
 serve to be one of the very best dramas to be shown on the screens here In months William Faversham has wide popularity himself. also the book from which the play Is taken is well-known and admired work. Faversham's portrayal of she humorous and dramatic leading char acter Is the best work of that fin-
 ished actor. and the adaptation or the
 story from the book Is q faithful one, sticking closely to the story as en- joyed by its readers.
 The story of the spirited American in London, who. through peculiar twist of fate, finds himself living out the life of double, the Earl of ltoch- .ster. is full of intense interest. It will have wide appeal. for in it hu- nor. suspense and stirring drama are all combined in an ideal mixture. Harold Lloyd Is his usual com tcally stolid self in T Do" where he has untold trouble with two ready made children left with him imme- d.ately after his marriage. Through out all of his comical experiences 'n the comedy, Lloyd, as the principal character of the story, never cracks a smile.
