Special Attraction MOnday- Double Bill for Sunday Evening

"The Sixth Commandment" and Swords and the Woman" will be the two special attractions at the Ly- ceum Sunday night, rounding out a program that includes the latest news reels and comedy features. Starting Monday for three days will be a double ttraction-Marie Pre- vost in "Cornered," great mystery drama, and Rodolf Valentino in an elaborate speciality starring himself in SS prize winning beauties selected from the principal cities of the United states. "When a Girl Loves" is the last half of the week.
 In this last named picture, Valen- tino appears to advantage and his support cast of beautiful American girls adds to the interest in the fea- ture. "Cornered," in which Miss Pre- vost has a dual role as Margaret Waring and Mary Brennan, has a most intriguing plot. The story em- braces many phases of life from shades of Chinatown to the glimmer- ing luxuriance of wealth. There are glimpses of the poor and the rich and the picture is the film version. of the famous stage play. of the name. Here's just a hint of the theme. -G.. ....r

TWO NEW PLAKSHA THEIR PREMIER ON GOTHAM STAGES


 There Is, however, enough story to carry the proceedings, and when they seem to lag an energetic chorus bestirs itself to keep the beholder's mind from the cares of the workday world. David Bennett. who directed the dancing, manages to achieve several spectacular effects In chorus work.
 A young woman named Claire Luce--probably newcomer to the Broadway iicld--gives a good ac- count of herself in an exhibition of theb usiness of kicking the back Of the head with the toes, pastime that has come into great favor with the dancers of this decade. Miss Martyr, as intimated above, Is daz- zlngly beautifud and takes the hur- dies of q stock role in her strides.
 When the book allows, MT. Catlett is comical in his familiar manner but with q collection of new material. MT. Shaw again shows that he is one of the few musical comedy leading men whose performances arouses in his audience neither the murder, nor the. mother instinct. Miss Tobin, to the cynical few, may seem cloying in her sweetness, and the inade- quacy of her voice must be apparent to even the great-hearted many, but she meets the demands put upon her in a workmanlike way.
 The Kern music Is beautiful, and much of It will almost certainly be popular. Howard Dietz Is a most capable substitute for P. G. Wode- house as lyricist in chief to MT. Kern.
 Grounds For DiyOrce.".
 Grounds For Divorce" the fleet new comedy at the Empire, had dif- ficulty last night In keeping pace with Miss Ina Claire's delightfully nimble performance. It was quick little satire on marriages, relating with romantic synicism some of the odd ins and outs of Parisian and other wedlock. Sophisticated, in- genious and at times witty, it sped along with considerable celerity, an amusing example of. light entertain ment. But it was the impetus of Miss Claire's twinkling tempo that made it more than an ordinary siuc- cess.
 The play. otherwise alert, may have been hindered bit by its la borious cynicisms on matrimony and divorce. Many of these were not only thrust into the audience, but were kept there for several mo-

Dear Sir" Is a Delight full Musical Farce and Grounds for Divorce Proves to Be Fleet Comedy.

Two new plays opened in New York this past week, each of which seems slated to ride the tide of popularity for some time. judging from the critiques of the first night CTS. The are Dear Sir" at the Times Square theater. and Grounds For Divorce" at the Empire.
 Here's what the metropolitan critics have to say:
 Dear Sir''
 The new musical piece. Dear Sir" that came to the Times Square theater last night is enjoy able entertainment. Among its i, positive merits 1t boasts of the most comical Walter Cotlett the agreeable and human Oscar Shaw and the sweet and bravely, if hope essly, tuneful Genevieve Tobin as stars, the beautiful Katherine Mar tyn as a not too minor accessory, as first class a score as Jerome Kern has written within recept memory and unusually intelligent lyrics by Howard Dietz.
 The production is in the grand manner. There are beautiful set tings, against which are arrayed large collections of handsome cos tunes on girls who are for the most mart worthy of them.
 The evenings comic high water mark was achieved by MT. Cattlett. with his observation that something or other was as useless as a glass eye at a keyhole. Many of his re- marks were not unworthy relatives of this great jest, and the few pain ful moments in the evenings pro- ceedings were obviously part and parcel of what musical comedy producers have learned to call the book. The present book, it may be thus easily gathered, is not among the plays attractions to those who care for comedy, plot or, in short, a book.

WIDE DISRUPTION
IN B. I. C. WIN c
OF
Dual Bodies in Three
Big Cities

Extensive disruption and dualism
in the building trades department Of
the American Federation of Labor is
revealed by the recent statement of
officials Of the department dealing
with the Chicago situation growing
out Of the Lands award and other
similar conditions in other large
cities.
There are two building trades
councils in Chicago, one composed Of
unions which accepted the Lands
award, the other of the unions that
fought it and are still fighting it.
The Lands award council has become
sort of mutual admiration So
ciety of bosses and wage-earners a
glorifed company union.
Neither Of the two councils are rec
ognized by the building trades de-
partment altho both are composed
of American Federation of Labor
unions.
In Cleveland there are two build
ing trades councils as a result Of the
jurisdictional dispute between the
carpenters and sheetmetal workers
over the handling of metal trim.
One of the Cleveland councils is
recognized by the department, that
which accepted the decision Of the
National Board of Jurisdictional
Awards and gave most of the metal
trim work to the sheet metal workers.
In st. Louis the building trades
council is out of the department fol-
lowing its refusal to unseat local
of structural iron workers which was
at odds with its international union.
In New York there is much friction
between the building trades council
formerly headed by Robert BrindelI,
now serving term in Sing Sing, and
the recognized council affiliated with
the building trades department.
A conference of the officials of the
American Federation of Labor build
ing trades department and four Of
ficers of Chicago unions has been
called for March II. If a satisfac-
tory settlement of the dispute is Sc
cured new attempt will be made to
eliminate the dualism in New York
and Cleveland.
The st. Louis council will be re-or-
ganized5 it is said.

Several additional ranches, where
infection has been found were placed
under strict quarantine and the tank
