Nazimova, considered the supreme
.trtist of the screen in work of emo
tion, will play this entire week in
"Madame Teacock" at the Sun thea
ter. This picture takes the actress
through scenes which call for a deal
of emotional stress. She is compelled
to enact the arduous task of a dual
role, and her histrionic capabilities
arc laxccj 10 me utmost. Yet, she is
rysi enougn to make her perform

play. The story concerns an actress

"The Restless Sex" is, of course,
the feminine, and the story centers
around Stephanie Clcland, a society
girl with an inborn craving for ex
citement and ambition to experience
life to the full. She is the adopted
daughter of John Cleland, a million
aire, and it comes as a shock to her
at the latter's death to learn that his
son, Jim, her lifelong companion, is
not her real brother. Following a
midnight adventure at a roadhouse,
Stephanie is led into an unfortunate
marriage and subsequent unhappi
ness, from which her love for Jim
finlly extricates her.

One of the established favorites
of the screen, Clara Kimball Young,
will be the attraction at the Rialto
theatre this 1 week in the popular
stage play, "Mid-Channel." It was
in this play that Ethel Barrymore
appeared in several seasons ago, and
which registered a hit on Broadway.
' "Mid-Channel" is laid in London
and gets its name from a comparison
of a crossing of the English Chan
nel, .between .Folkstone and Bou
logne anrl married life. All i& clear
sailiiiK in the beginning, but when
one reaches mid-channel, or passes
the first few years of married life,
the troubles are likely to commence.
So also when mid-channel is safely
passed all is clear sailing.
It is in this dramatic story that
Clara Kimball Young has one of the
best opportunities of her screen
career. Playing opposite her is the
popular J. Frank Glendon, and
others in the cast include Betram
Gratsby, Eileen Robinson and Ed
ward M. Kimball.
Miss Young has been rising rapid
ly in popular favor ever since her
remarkable portrayal of the role of
Trilby in the gripping play of the
. same name.

"Draff Harlan," featuring William

week.
The star has the part of "Drag"
Harlan, feared by all as the quickest
gun fighter ever known in the com
munity. His "handle" . of "Drag"
was won by a peculiar trick of seem
ing to let his hand hesitate or drag
over the butt of his pistol before he
finally whipped it out. Other gun
fighters tried to discover the trick
ot "Drag's" peculiar draw, but found
the only trick was speed.
Farnum has to give several dem
onstrations of his alacrity in draw
ing a six-shooter in this picture.
Aside from the interest in the gun
fighting element of the picture is an
unusually touching romance, in
which the star is supported by Jackie
Saunders and several of the screen's
best known players.

Marshall Neilan, like an expert
chemist, takes keen delight in blend
ins; personalities to get a novel com
bination in the mixture of a photo
play situation.
One of the most effective "mix
tures' was perfected recently when
he built up a number of scenes for
"Dinty," his newest picture, around
the physical endowments of Wesley
Barry, known throughout the land
as "the freckle-faced kid of the
movies;" Aaron Mitchell, a motion
picture pickaninny whose shoulders
shimmy at the least provocation,
and Walter Chung, the almond
eyed youth from Chinatown.
"Wesley, Aaron and Walter are
practically the same size and age.
Their views on life, however, are
widely different, towit: Wesley
thinks and firmly believes that rid
ing a bucking broncho is the height
of any person's accomplishments;
Aaron, who has become such a
"shimmy" lizard that he cannot talk
without stuttering, thinks the great
est vocation a man can nave is me
art of Pullman portering, while
Walter stoutly maintains that a
laundryman is the most honored
person is the land.
s Stars at Play.
Auothe unique innovation has been
added to the fifth greatest industry.
This time credit goes to a woman.
Lois Weber, premier woman pro
ducer, is a firm believer in the old
adage. "All work-and no play makes
Jack a dull boy," and has constructed
a tennis court on her studio
grounds. The court will furnish the
chief recreation of her studio as
sociates. Miss Weber not only will
be sponsor at the opening, but states
that in future her morning consti
tutional will consist of a game of
tennis.
When Lon Chaney Kills Self.
"In Outside the Law," the under
world Universal picture featuring
Priscilla Dean, Lon Chaney has two
parts. In one he is the Chinese
assistant to a bazaar keeper and in
the other he is a crook. In a wild
ly exciting scene Chaney, as the
crook, shoots and kills Chaney as
the chink. A fight between Wheeler
Oakman and Chaney is another fea
ture of the picture.
