Geraldine Farrar in " The Devil Stone "at tke Regent I ' AOTCR/tfT ' The popularity of Geraldine Farrar was attain accorded yesterday at tnp lipgpnt Theater, when large crowds welcomed the initial perfownances of her third groat production, "The Devil .Stone." It was readilv acceded to be one of the best motion plays ever shown in this city. While the two former appearance 0 f this noted prima donna before tile camera precipitated almost an universal demand for her to continue in the motion picture world, with her wonderful success in this latest '"raft release she now seems forever exiled from the operatic stage. .Miss !• armr presents a characterization different from any that she has ever been seen in in "The Devil Stone." As in other successes, she is supported by an all-star cast of the first magnitude, with Wallace Reid as her leading man. As Man ia Manot. Miss Farrar portrays a simple Breton fisherwotnan, who believes she finds a famous stone which has been lost for generations, and as a result enters a new world. The treatment of the story links the time of the legendary Queen Grenelda. of Norse folklore, with the present, and fowns the new theme. Superstition, as the basis for this creation of Cecil DeMille. Toylaud," is the headliner scheduled for the last half of the week. Grouped around this offering are: Darry Simp son and Company, presenting a com edy variety skit, entitled "Ueno and Return;" Dorris Darr, one of the most popular singing comediennes now ap pearing before the public; Worth- Wayten Four, quartcte of male sing ers, and Kay and Botic, novelty dancers. The screen's great portrayer of western characters —William S. Hart —will be seen at tVlllinni S. Hart the Colonial Thea at tlie Colonial ter to-night and to morrow in a reis sue of what is claimed to be his best picture under the Triangle banner, "The Primal Dure." Idolized by the boys and girls who, time after time, witness his brave actions on the screen, and the grown folks, fascinat ed by his wonderful personality and forceful acting, this popular star has filled a niche in the hearts of many movie fahs that cannot be replaced by any other star. In "The Primal Dure" Mart is the dominant figure through out the entire five reels, and what "punch" the picture needs he is there to give it. A well-balanced cast of players has been selected to support the star. One of the most spectacular as well as the most thrilling motion picture dramas ever cast "The /.eppelin's upon the screen of I.ast Rnlil," any theater is "The nt the Victoria Zeppelin's Dast Raid." shown for past two days at the Victoria Theater and will be shown for the last times to-day. This remarkable cinema spec tacle silently portrays the uprising of an enslaved people against imperial istic rule, the horrors of Kaiserism as obtains to-day in Germany. Coming at a time when the world is scarred by the horrors of war, it unfolds a story of mlßhty interest. It is a great war spectacle with a real heart inter est gripping story that does not de pend upon battle scenes for its mag netism. There all the thrills of the motion of yesterday, to-day and to morrow. rolled into one, magnified and emphasized. For to-morrow, for the first time in this city, the power ful drama. "Shall We Forgive Her," a picture with a lesson that will ap peal to every person. To-morrow we will also present the first instalment of the newest serial story, "Venge ance and the Woman." featuring Wil liam Duncan and Carol Halloway, who will be remembered for their work in "The Fighting Trail." Arthur Guy Kmpey, the American who fought with the British troops in the first line trenches for Arthur nearly two years until lie Guy was incapacitated for further Empey service and then came back and wrote "Over tile Top." the most popular book on the war yet published in America, will have other things to tell than the soldiers' dailv experiences when he gives his lecture at the Chestnut Street Auditorium next Friday evening. He lias, for instance, very definite ideas on women's share in the war. Here is what he said recently on this subject: "More American women than men are awake to the war. Tlie women are splendid! They want to work and they want to use their brains. They can do a lot. Fifty per cent, of this war in going to to be won by women. There's the Red Cross work, una buy ing Liberty Bonds, and stimulating recruiting, and taking care of food MAJESTIC THEATER You have only to-night to see SANTI The Wonderful Oriental Dancer.

It's the spirit of the women ; that counts with the men. Tt's in the hand of each woman whether her family shall be patriots or slackers." Mr. Empey speaks of another class of women, who in his mind are un patriotic and very detrimental to our great cause. He gives as an illustra tion of this class the following: oc currences: "I landed here six months ago." he said. "Of course, they took me around to the restaurants i.nd cabarets. Men and women were drinking:, dancing and applauding; singers and musicians. Oyer in France men were dying with no applause. In London women were weeping: over casualty lists. If you'd asked one of those Broadway restaurant girls to knit, she'd have turned up her nose. I couldn't help feeling that it was a shame to invite men to go out and fight and die for parasites." Owing to the great demand for scats for the Guy Empey lecture due to the popular prices prevailing, th management would suggest that early reservations be made in order to se cure choice. The sale of seats is now open at the Orpheum Theater. I'or the benefit of out-of-town pa trons, mail orders addressed to treas urer of Orpheum Theater will be filled in the order received.

The holiday fea ture was listed as Uoshatiara's Danse Divertissements with a special bal let and a small symphony orchestra. The numbers included a wide var iety of descriptive dances some of them bordering on the fantastic, others exceptionally by creature, all of them set to appropriate musical accompaniment. The tirst offering was "On the Way to the Temple,' a Hindu fantasy, created by Roshanara In which she appeared in the leading part, sup ported by Thomas Allen Rector. The entire number was in silhouette ad dins to the attractive setting. Others included a Japanese legend ary dance by Tulle Rindahl, fox dance by Mlcio Itow, a clever Kant Indian Nautch by Roshanara and a comedy playlet entitled 'A Tattle Red Shoe," which pleased the audience. Features of the second part were a Hindu ser pent dance by Roshanara: "After the War" another creation by her. Mar ionettes Expression of Music by Itow. who was called for an encore, and the closing number "Tragedy of the Festival lights." Some of the dancers lac.keo the same artistic description but the music for each of these helped make them attractive. A noticeable feature of the orchestra accompaniment was that the majority of the music was in a plaintive minor k.ey, which with some of the special scenic effects mad a pleasing impression on those in the audience who could appreciate the artistic ideas of Roshanara.
