Stecher-Lewis Pictures
Shown at the Auditorium
The Stecher-Lewis pictures which
were shown at the auditorium last
night and appear there again this
afternoon and tonight are a revels
tion to the wrestling; fans.
In the first place the photography
is very good and every picture is as
dear as it could be. In the second
place the picture brings out some
points that the tired fans seemed to
have forgotten by the time the bout
had gone almost five hours.
Scenes in the training camps illus
trating the various training stunts and
the favorite holds of the principals
are shown first. Then the wrestlers go
for two falls with their trainers, male
ing their falls with their best holds.
On the day of the match Gene Melady
and all the sporting celebrities who
were in Omaha are shown, together
with the 18,000 fans who saw the
match and the preliminary bouts.
Those who did not see the match
readily understand why the match
went so long without a decision after
seeing the pictures.

Journeys With
Photo Players
Henry Walthall faaa at last learned of
poet who can find a rhyme for his name.
In a current matazine is a verse In which
each line ends with the famous tragedian'
name, thus putting at rest the widely pub
lished doubts that such rhymes eould b
found. But then, the verse Is a. Umericlt,
and hardly counts.
After several months of Incessant worts.
Myrtle Stedmatt, Horosco star. Is enjoying
a brief rest at her home, to which she was
forced to retire to save her eyesight from
Injury by the studio artificial lights. For
several days It was feared an operation
would be necessary, but the change from tha
glare of the Cooper-Hewitts to the soft
California sun has worked wonders and
Miss Stedman la refreshed and ready for
more work.
Charles Ray, the "wonder boy" of th
Inee-Trlangle studio. Is now playing oppo
sits Bessie Bartiscale In an Irish comedy.
Miss Barrlscale abandons her beautiful
gowns ot take the part of an Irish peas
ant girl, while Ray Is cast as a young -American
who owns land In Ireland. Then
Is much opportunity for comedy shades In
the picture and It Is rich In the atmospher
ot me jumeraia isle.
Cleo Madison still has several weeks of
hard work In "The Chalice of Sorrow," tha .
modernised version of "La Tosca," which
she plays leading role of at the Universal
studio. .The requirements of the plctura
are unusually severs, for It Is Intended to
set a new standard of Bluebird production
with this photoplay, and the artlstlo da
tall Is carefully watched. To meet the part.
Miss Madison has engaged a dancing
teacher to perfect her ateps in a "Car
men" scene, while costuming and stags set
tings call for much of her time and super
vision. The picture is being directed . by
Rex Ingrain.
J. Warren Kerrigan, after having played
several recent features of romatlc cast ,
staged In tho mountains of southern Cali
fornia, now Is engaged In the. filming, with
his company, of a modernised version ot
the Robin Hood plot, under the name of
"A Social Buccaneer." Kerrigan is an ad
venturer In city high life, robbing the
wealthy to distribute his gains among tha
poor of the tenament districts. Opposlta
him la charming Louise Lovely, and ons of
the handsomest, "seta" ever used at Uni
versal City Is a scene of the Interior of s
Chtnse restaurants gorgeous In lta color
inga and fittings
, When "Civilisation" was first shown 09
the screen It was generally predicted thai
the supernatural touch given the big fea
ture by the introduction of the Chris tug
would cause a "storm of protest." Thi
storm never arose and that It did not Is s
silent but eloquent tribute to George Fishery
who imparted so much reverenoe to tht
part On the other hand, bringing the super
natural Into the film has added consider
ably to the Interest shown In It and Plshof
has received nothing but compliments front
people of religious persuasions..
Johnny Sheehan, the American company!
comedian, loves a good practical Joke. The)
other day he entered a barber shop 1
Banta Bargara and the following converse
tlon ensued; v
"Gee, IK cents Is a lot of money for g
shave. How much will you charge for m
'once over?' "
"Fifteen cents."
"That isn't reasonable; make It It cents)
for 'onoe over and no hot towels.
The barber shook his head.
"Won't do It T Well, since you are suet
a -tightwad, sell me a haircut, shampoo
shave, masaags and a shoe shine on tM
side."
