-FOUR SHOTS FIRED
AT PAPAL NUNC|O
Vatican Envoy, Walking in
Spanish Kings Garden, Be-
Iieved Mistaken for Another.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
LONDON, February Attempted
assassination late last evening of the
papal nuncio as he walked in the gar
dens of the royal palace at Madrid gave
q new aspect today to SPANS political
upheaval.
Previous dispatches from Madrid had
indicated all but complete suppression

and had told of arrest and impending
trial of those held responsible.
Believed Mistaken Identity.
It was difficult from this distance and
from the scantiness of detail--due to q
rigid cenSorship-to fix the asSaSsina-
ton attempt in its proper place in the
Spanish political mosaic, but in the
carefully worded telephone advices of
the incident there was the inference
that the shots at the ecclesiastic prob
ably were intended for some one else en-
tirely.
Four shots were fired at the papal
diplomatic representative" believed
here to mean the papal nuncio, Mgr.
FREDERICK Tedeschini. All of the shots
went wild, and the assailapt escaped.
Mgr. Tedeschini, who was appointed
to the Spanish post in 1921, has been
on exceedingly friendly terms with King
Alfonso XIII and his family and it is
believed this friendship may have ac-
counted for his presence in the garden,
where he was mistaken for another.
King Alfonso himself had returned
earlier in the day from hunting trip
to San Lucar. In the course of the day
he had conferred with Gen. Primo de
Rivera. premier, concerning the sup
preston of Tuesdays revolt at Ciudad
Real.
The Spanish embassy made public
early this morning a telegram from
Madrid emphatically contradicting re-
ports that the Spanish frontier had
been closed to travellers, either Spanish
or foreign The telegram said they
were allowed to circulate freely.

says Mr.. Tryon, "a fellow occasionally

tervals between scenes. or at other
times, when we could watch some one
else being shot" But under talkie
regime all that is changed, for now be-
tween scenes we are endeavoring to
learn our lines for the scenes that come
next, and if another fellow happens
to be getting the camera we have to
rehearse our dances, which, as well as
our songs. have to be more precisely
done for the talkie than ever they were
for the stage. Why? Simply because
the recording devices are as exacting
as the camera. While the latter Is pic

Actors Ought to Act. 4

actor of the legitimate theater, who
&c now devoIing his time to the dlrec@
tion Of talking movies, is not an advo-
cate of the movie pet hobby OF playing
roles with type actors. He Is said 10
be strongly of the contrary opinion.
ION the stage" he is quoted as say
ing. 1--WE never employed actors because
they were of this or that type. we
assumed that if they were actors they
could make up to look any part they
were ASSIGNED to act. This principle we
revived in making. up the cast Tor
| Madame x and I am confident we
achieved much better results than II we
had been limited to cast MADE up OF
type for each role.
No stronger evidence is required In
support of this theory than Miss Ruth
Chatterton furnishes In the stellar role.
Miss Chatterton, herself young
woman, starts her role as one. and then
in turn and purely with the aid OF
makeup and acting that has been al
most extravagantly praised carries her
part successfully throughout the story,
which covers a period of some 20 years,
with the consequent changes marking
advancing age and the marks OF con-
tinued dissipation.
Lewis Stone who plays the part Of
the husband OF Madame x, also fur
nishes fine illustration Of what real
actor, skilled both in his art and in the
! art Of makeup, can do with a role that
would most likely elude the wits OF a
mere type actor.
Indeed, the cast throughout, made up
Of real actors of both the stage and the
screen. furnishes excellent support for
Mr.. Barrymore's contention. In this
respect at least the screen hobby did
not better the stage in the art OF
| characterization.
