"FRIENDLY ENEMIES"
•Friendly Enemies," the greatest of
all successes, will be presented at the
Orpheum to-day matinee and night,
under the direction of A. H. Woods.
This great comedy, which has been
a sensational success on three conti
nents, has been so widely discussed,
and has made so high and sure a
place for Itself in the annals of the
American theater, that it needs hard
ly any introduction to playgoers. A
year in New York to capacity audi
ences, six months In Chicago, break
ing all records for long runs In that
city, sensational runs in Boston,
Philadelphia and throughout the
United States, a success in Australia,
a record-breaking hit in London —all
this is a career that is without prece
dent in the entire history of the
stage. Since the first performance of
"Friendly Enemies" in Atlantic City
on February 28, 1918, it has been
playing almost continuously on three
continents.
U. S. General May
Have Been Killed by
Ukrainian Bolshevists
Washington, Oct. 3. —Official Infor
mation bearing on the reported dis
appearance in Ukrainia of Brigadier
General Edgar Jadwln, representa
tive of the American peace delega
tion. has not been received in Wash
ington. Major General Churchill,
chief of military Intelligence, has
cabled the American military attache
at Warsaw, Poland, to investigate
the report.
Anxiety is felt here over the safe
ty of General Jadwln In view of the
press dispatches quoting peasants in
the region of Fastoff as saying that
two Allied officers were captured and
shot by Bolshevists. The same dis
patches said General Jadwln and
Lieutenant H. A. Bowe, of the Brit
ish military control office, were
known to have been in this section.
Before the war General Jadwin
served in the office of the chief of
engineers and while stationed in
Pittsburgh he organized one of the
first engineer regiments sent to
France. He was promoted to a brig
adier general in the National Army
while serving in France.
Dancing Makes London
Girls Graceful Walkers
Ixindon, Oct. 4.—London girls arc
graceful and generally walk better
than their brothers because they are
fond of dancing, according to the
medical officer. "Particularly notice-
Council.
"Teaching of dancing in the pub
lic schools has no doubt greatly
helped, if it has not saved the sit
uation in regard to the physical de
velopment of London girls," said the
medical officer. "Partciularly notice
able is the much better arched in
step of the girls in camparison with
their own brothers and with coun
try children generally.
"The relative absence of flat-foot
thus brought about is the foundation
of that grace of carriage which the
typical London girl of the elemen
tary school exhibits. In the country
stimuli to an interest in dancing
which are characteristic of London
life."
RKCRITTIVG SERGEANTS AID
IV ROSTOV POLICE STRIKE
The general disgust at the wave
of lesiure and lack of restraint and
order, during the strike in Boston,
Mass., made the army, with its dis
cipline and settled order, unusually
attractive and prominent. An out
standing feature of the riotous con
dition was one oasis in the seething
disorder, in the heart of the worst
disturbances, in Scollary Square,
Boston.
Were the most violent scenes were
enacted; here too was the army re
cruiting office. In front of the of
fice, several members of the recruit
ing party, old soldiers with years
of service and experience, were al
ways to be found. Although they
took no part in quelling the dis
orders, since they were Federal sol
diers, their very presence brought to
bear, as a restraint, the atmosphere
of stability—the time-honored re
spect for law and order. Incidentally
the value of discipline was empha
sized, to the point that many men,
realizing the value, enlisted. As
one young fellow expressed it: "I
never thought I'd hanker after strict
discipline, but after seeing these
young bullies and thugs making a
nuisance of themselves because there
weren't no police about, I've decided
that we all want badly a lot of that
self same discipline stuff, so I'm
coming into the service again to get
a whole big piece of it in my sys
tem. I'm for law and order, I am—
and if the army don't stand for just
that thing—l'm very much mis
taken."

KITTY GORDON COMING IN NEW PLAY

'Love For Sale", at the Orpheum on Tuesday evening .
PAIR RANKS COMING TO REGENT
IN "HIS MAJESTY, THE AMERICAN"
The first motion picture to be made
ty Douglas Fairbanks, as a member
of the "Big Four"—United Artists
Corporation to use Its full name—has
been secured for a presentation by
the Regent Theater next week.
United Artists Corporation is made
up of Mary Pickford, Charlie Chaplin,
Douglas Fairbanks and D. W. Grif
fith.
The first picture to be put out by
this new giant organization is "His
Majesty, the American." The plans
of the company are so full of promise
of better things all around in the mo
tion picture business, that theaters
the country over have been most
anxious to secure the first production
to be made under these ideal con
ditions.
The picture itself Is said to be the
most ambitious production that Fair
banks has ever undertaken. Eight
weeks were devoted exclusively to
the preparation of the scenario. Jos
eph Henaberry, who created the part
of "Lincoln" in the "Birth of a Na
tion" and who assisted D. W. Griffith
in producing "Intolerance." and also
directed Douglas Fairbanks in "The
Man from Painted Post," "Say Young
Fellow" and other noteworthy suc
cesses, developed the scenario with
the assistance of Elton Banks. Mr.
Henaberry. of course, is the director
of "His Majesty, the American."
Marjory Daw plays the leading fe
male role in the picture and Frank
Campeau, Sam Pothern, brother of E.
H. Sothern, Lillian Langdon, Albert
McQuarrie and other notables are in
cluded in the cast.
In addition to a company of high
salaried actors that in themselves
guarantee splendid support for the
agile "Doug," "His Majesty, the
American" Is said to have cost a for
tune in point of actual production.
Mr. Fairbanks has set a mark
which It will be hard to approach in
settings for his new picture. Money
has been spent lavishly in providing
the atmosphere necessary for the
successful portrayal of the story but
the results have completely Justified
the tremendous outlay.
Its presentation at the Regent The
ater should be a genuine event
among the motion picture enthusi
asts of the city.
"THE SMARTER SET"
A musical comedy bearing the title
of "Children of the Sun" will be the
offering of "The Smarter Set" nt the
Orpheum next Thursday matinee and
night. As most all showgoers know,
and especially those who have en
joyed the "The Smart Set In the past,
this colored organization is one of
the best vehicles of Its kind ever on
the road. "The Smart Set" has been
reorganized into "The Smarter Set."
and this organization It is said is one
of the best musical shows coming to
this city. It is a big company of col
ored singers, dancers and comedians
who have been selected for their
ability in their particular lines and
added to the music and picturesque
footwork of the troupe is a lively
fund of genuine comedy. The fun
making forces of "The Smarter Set"
Is headed by Salem Tutt Whitney
and J. Homer Tutt, both entertainers
having. It Is said, voices of excep
tional beauty and sweetness and of
marked ability ns comedians. One
plays the dressy darky and the other
the "levee coon" type, and they are
said to be hilariously amusing from
estart to finish of the show.

"A LITTLE JOURNEY"
"A Little Journey," a bright come
dy of real life by Rachel Crothers,
will be the attraction at the Orpheuin
Theater on October 8. There will bo
a special matinee as well as an even
ing performance. The announcement
of any play by Miss Crothers is
bound tc interest the theater-going
public as she is the author of several
of the most successful comedies of
American life ever produced. Some
of her best known plays are "30 East,"
"Old Lady 31," "A Man's World" and
"The Three of Us."
In "A Little Journey," which was
the comedy hit of last season in New
York and which ran for more than
seven months at the Vanderbilt the
ater, Miss Crothers has blended
comedy and pathos with a touch of
philosophy in a manner that makes
the play a bit of real life. The widely
diversified characters. who are
brought together in a Pullman
sleeper are the sort of persons met
or seen on any overnight trip.
Their opinions of themselves and
of their fellow passengers are ex
tremely funny and the progress of
their acquaintance during the four
days' journey brings out the worst
as well as the best traits of each,
i The first two acts take place in the
car. Then comes a wreck and bat
tered and bruised, cold and hungry,
the survivors of the party find them
selves on a hill top in Montana. Here
misfortune strips them of their mean
and petty ways and reveals the real
human being that exists way down
in even the worst of men and women.
Socks of Prince Are
Attached For Debt
New York, Oct. 4. Personal
property of a French nobleman,

dashery and clothing value at $2,-

"THE HED LANTERN"
BRIGHTEST PHOTOPLAY
Kaztmova has what Is in effect a
triple personality to Interpret in "The
Red Lantern," which comes to the
Colonial Theater, on Monday next.
She appears as Mahlee. a Eurasian
girl (that is, half white and half!
Chinese), in which the racial traits!
of the Oriental and the Anglo-Saxon j
conllict In moments of elemental pas- j
slon; and also as Blanche Sackvlllc,
an English girl, the natural daughter
of the father of Mahlee. As Blanche,
Nazimova, for the first time on the
screen appears as a blonde.
The famous Russian artist put in
seven solid weeks working for the
camera, toiling conscientiously and
without stint. At the conclusion of
"The Red Lantern" she was glad to
take a rest of a month before under
taking her next feature production,
"The Brat."
LAST DAY' OP BAR A IN
"LA BELLE lIUSSE"
A remarkable photoplay, Inter
preted with finest art, will take its;
departure from the yictoria Theater
when "La Belle Russe" ends its run
there to-night. The David Belasco
stage drama of the same name, from
which the William Fox photoplay
was adapted, made its author famous
years ago; and credit must be given
to Charles J. Brabin —who made the
screen version and also directed the
picture—for an exceedingly fine piece,
of work. Mr. Brabin has been guided
throughout not only by a keen sense
of dramatic values, but by an ex
quisite taste in the purely pictorial
phases of the production.
TRIPLE ATTRACTION AT REGENT
The triple attraction which scored
a triumph with audiences at the Re
gent Theater yesterday will be ex
hibited for the last times to-day.
Residents of this city will have their
last chance to see themselves in mo
tion pictures to-day when the scenes
of Monday's Welcome Home Celebra
tion will be shown. This film has
created a furore of interest in this
city, and in all probability the the
ater will have capacity houses to
day.
"Fatty" Arbuckle appears again
to-day in his newest comedy, "Back
Stage," which has kept the audiences
at the Regent laughing for the last
two days.
The new Paramount Picture, "Hay
Foot, Straw Foot," starring Charles
Ray, made a great hit at its first
!showings yesterday. With charming
Doris Lee, Mr. Ray has produced an
exceptionally fine picture.

known author and composer of the
Yiddish stage, will appear in this city
