x AT ARCADE.
Blanche Sweet, one of America's
foremost photodramutic stars, will be
jseen ut the Arcade tonight and to
morrow in the Jesse L. Lasky pro
duction of "The Blacklist," the
thrilling drama of social conditions
written especially for her by two of
the country's most 'famous play
wrights, Marion Fairfax and Wm. C.
J.)e Mille. . It is la Paramount picture.
The beautiful Blanche Sweet, since
Hhe has 'been with the Lasky company
has ilcen Been in many unusual uoles,
but as Vera Moiroff, t'he school tcachr
in a small mining town, she is said to
portray a role entirely different from
anything in whichl she has hereto
fore appeared. .. v
"The Black-List" is a daring indict
ment of ths working conditions of big
corporations as tlhey exist in many
states. Vera is the daughter of a
mine worker who is tflie head of Rus
sian anarchists, contemplating thi
overthrow of the corporation. How
the littlo school teacher, after her
people have been shot down by the
mine-guards for refusing to work un
der the terrible conditions 'of One
"Black-List," changes the entira pol
icy of the great corporation and
brings the president to her feet, must,
naturally be seen to be enjoyed. This
photodrama is said to deliver a les
son to the working classes in a far
mora graphic and. vivid manner than
could bo told from the pulpit or stage.
Supporting Miss Sweet is a cast of
unusual excellence,, headed by Chas.
Clary. V
Horace B. Carpenter is .also seen
prominent ' in the support of Miss
Sweet.
Others in the cast are Ernest Joy,
Wm. Elmer. Lucian Littlefield, Jane
Wolf and other members of the Lasky
all-star stock company.

William Farnum in "Fighting
Blood" in which a prize fight of the
real quill is staged.- The picture ap
Dears for the last time tonifht. nnH
! it is interesting to know what a real
prize fighter thinks of the film. When
Champion Jess Willard was in New
York recently he gave out the follow
ing comment about the picture Sher
ry's is now showing:
"Most stage fights are just staere
ngnts, tnats all," declared w.illard.
"The fighters usually stall and swing
wild, afraid that they are going to
nurt each other or ruffle each other s
clothes. In thlese days moving pic
tures are too ireal for fake fighting.
i mean tne pictures m wnien." 1 saw
Bill Farnum fight. He is the oreat
est rough-and-tumble fighter, for pic
tures or for money, I believe that I
ever saw. I do not mean that Far
num is a irowdy or anything like that.
I know that he is a' hierh-class eentle-
man. What I do mean is that he has
demonstrated to my mind that he is
more than able to take care of him:
self in almost any kind of company.
"Farnum and Wis sparring partners
put all they have behind their Wows,
or at least seem to, and I used to won
der whether it was rehearsing that
made them so perfect. I know dif
ferently now. I know that they really
give and take the punches thUt come
their way. I saw Farnum in 'Fight
ing f Blood,' 'Soldiers' Oath,' 'The
Plunderer,' 'The Bondman' and 'A
Man of Sorrow,' and, believe- me, I
have seon ring fights that did not
touch thtese for realism and action.
"Bill Fatrnum fights as though he
likes to fight, and I have no doubt that
he would have landed in the rinc if
the stago had not claimed him in hds
early youth."
