Last week the show dealt with diseased men and this week's production deals with a woman who ban dodged the Issue of motherhood by malpractice. Undeniably this play has strong moments and It la well acted tbroHEksot and reoelvad whole-hearted ap- Ptaue from the steal I ta dlence. This u fie first preteutatlon of "The Good Bad Woman" in the cast and aa a piece of stagecraft It :has too many loose ends, and seems pecu- liarly larking in literary finesse. In order to provide "action" too many entrances and exits aro made by the characters. Too many bells are rung. Miss Illlagton repeats cer- tain characteristic bits of business, notably her posturlrg at the door of her bedroom, too frequently. Visitors come and go at will. Th? latch-string seems to be always out for anyone who may happen along, no matter at what hour. It is a clear expression of a point of view but is handled wl:ii but a fair amount of delicacy; the woman's failure to realise and the man's aenso of outrage at her conduct forming the drama. The last act is the only one that arouses any real Interest. The play is by William Anthony Magulrc and has an excellent cast, including Margaret Illington, Robert Edeson, Wilton Lackaye and Kathcrlne Kaelred, all of whom give earnest performances. AUDITORIUM—Robert Mantell began bis local engagement before a crammed bouse last night in "King Lear." The engagement holds promise of being well worth seeing be- sides being able to draw out better crowds than havo turned oat yet this season. The presentation was enthusiastically received and in Mr. Mantell's production it is the play that la given entire consideration and no effort is made for the spectacular effect and sumptious setting that many of the modern §reaeatations of 8hakespear have offered, enevlve Hamper, the leading woman la beau- tiful and graceful and bas a fine voice, and while her acting lacks lire, probably due to Immaturity, she Is finished and restrained. Mr. Mmtell'8 portrayal of unhappy old Lear, of course, left nothing to bo desired. Several other of the Bard of Avon's masterpieces will be presented before the end of the stay here. MARYLAND—Vaudeville. COLONIAL—The Stock Company is trying their hands and also their voices In a musical comedy thia week, "Alma, Where Do You | Live?" The play kept the audience highly amused last night. "Alma," played by Mil- dred Florence, makes a big bit with her voice ss does also the leading man, Douglas Dum- brille. GARDEN—Vaudeville. ACADEMY—Dark. PALACE—That rare treat—something new In burlesque—Is really true this week when Jean Bedlnl presents a unique offering, billed "Puss-Puss." The name signifies nothing, it Is almost a misnomer, for the production rerembles a miniature "Follies," more than It does the average burlesque show. Clarke and McCullough furnish most of the humor and bring forth many good laughs with dia- logues and Jokes that are real!/ new. LOEWS—Pictures and vaudeville. GARDEN—Vaudeville. GAYETY—"Innocent Maids Company." VICTORIA—Pictures and vaudeville. NEW—"Tha Belle of New York," with Marlon Davlea proves effective on the screen here; several pictures of local Interest are shown In the Pathe Weekly. FOLLY—"Merry Lassies" with Florlenta, an Oriental dancer, as the chief attraction. PARKWAY—A dramatic photoplay, In which Elsie Ferguson wears many beautiful gowns and most of the nccnes of which are laid In a millionaire's home, is "The Marriage Price," the attraction for all this week. In addition to the main picture Mr. and Mrs. Sidney Drew are seen In their latest comedy, "Once a Mason," this picture attracts more favorable comment than the feature. For the first time In many moons the same headllner Is held over for two weeks at the Maryland, but Belle Baker Is by far the best drawing card that this house has all season Nenm im a-'SMEBB oKtriCEs V- r if'..„ -.*••■ 1 m fli£* r -. gal j lSU Victory Revue GOLDEN GLADES <4Uh FLOOR) TWICE NIGHTLY Sat 7.30 P.M.— 11. 30 P.M FEATURING WOR-LD'S GREATEST ICE SKATERS AND ICE BALLET flloodurai, y 66 ^St.,n v. and her reception for the second week la sur- passing her first week.
