Few stars, and probably none in
the comedian class, are as popular
and so welcome as William Hodgei
that typical American actor. who.,
since the days of his sensational
triumph in "The Man From Home"
has won an ever-increasing follow
ing of devoted admirers. To h'.s
many friends in this city it will be
tation or with ?o sensational i record
lof success, as "Friendly Enemies."
This play has won the approval of tli**
English-speaking world. KsH
cnl> \XB it a sensation in New York.
Chicago. Philadelphia and practically
throughout the length and breadth of
'the United States. but an equally
preat hit in the British Isles. This
splendid dramatic masterpiece ©I
com* d> pathos, of tears and love, of
jjeriousness and fun. will be present
ed atthe Orphvum with a notable
company.
I interesting news to hear that Wil
! Ham Hodge will appear in his brand- !
nevV'play. "The Guest of Honor." at
' the Orpheum Theater for one night
only. Wednesday. October 1. This
new play is a comedy romance of (
1 New York life, presented in three ;
■lets, and in it Mr. Hodge he
has the happiest vehicle of his stel-
I lar career.
"The Fall of Babylon,"
New Griffith Spectacle
It was to have been expected that :
David Wark Griffith, who gave to '
the motion picture world such no- j
table works as "The Birth of a N'a
| tion." and "Hearts of the World," j
would soon focus his camera on an- j
other gigantic assemblage of scenes ;
j and produce another colossal super- I
picture for the enjoyment of those j
who seek the unusual in entertain- \
ment. Hence the announcement that !
j in "The Fall of Babylon" he has ac- j
I tually surpassed his former achieve
' ments will be welcome news to the '
j admirers of this indomitable pro
ducer of bifc, throbbing, startling'
riays.
! Local interest is keen in "The Fall i
I of Babylon," sinre it has been se
cured for a special engagement here. |
and will be shown at the Colonial i
j Theater during the week of SeptChl
! her 29ta. with "Kyra." sensational !
I classic dancer, appearing in person. <
l turning l com the smoke and roar'
I of battle in 'Hearts of the World,"
! Mr. Griffith has taken the historical
i Babylonian period as the background i
for the spectacular romance, "The
j I" all of Babylon." and has peopled his
j play with all the picturesque char
i acters of that colorful era, with its
dancing girls, its bacchanalian feasts
i of splendor, its high priests, the mas- 1
sive grandeur of its mighty walls,
its chariot races, its bazarre life and
Its intrigue, greed and treacherv.
Some idea of the magnitude of "The
j Fall of Babylon" may be gained from I
;the announcement that more than !
i 125,00 men and women appear in the !
I tremendous scenes attending the j
i Feast of Belshazzar, while almost I
countless thousands take part in the i
assault upon the walls during the !
great siege of Babylon.
A special musical accompaniment i
bos been provided by Mr, Griffith for
I the further enjoyment of the proluc- !
I tion.

'says: "To send Jove across the foot-'

have not. We cannot attract love to us I
unless we love. The inherent quali- j
i ties of character possessed bv a play- I
I er are not lost upon the people who)
I see that player in thetheater. The I
most beloved actress I know is one
who is constantly giving to the world i
a great and pulsating love. Her feel- 1
ing toward every living thing is one'
, of exquisite tenderness. .It flows from
her to the people who watch her play
and the result is their adoration of
