John Harrymorc, who has played
Balkan princes, South American dic
tators and assorted American char
acters, has reserved for "The Lost
Bridegroom," his latest Famous Play-orH-Pnramounl
Picture, which is the
feature at the Arcude tonight and to
morroow, the role of a crook. It is
one of the most laughable and, at the
same time, most thrilling stories in
which the celebrated star has ever
appeared.
James Kirkwood produced this rare
I combination of laughs and thrills for
I the Famous Players, with Kathcrine
I'hc Losl Harris, Ida Darling, June Dale, Ilardio
Kukland, bdwaru Sturgis and several
other well-known players in support of

I'arnuin Scores Personal Triumph by
Playing Two Dissimilar Parts.
One of the most skillful hits of act
ing ever seen in photoplay is done by
William Farnum. who plays two sep
arate parts in "The Bondman," a Wil
liam Fox production of llall Caine's
celebrated novei. Mr. Farnum, who.

while on the legitimate stage, ap
peared for live solid years in "lien
Hii!-," plays the parts of Stephen Orry
and Jason Orry, father and son.
The types are radically dissimilar.
Stephen Orry is a hu,?e, heavy-limbed
giant; a vagabond, indifferent upon
liirn. Jason, the son, who vows to kill
his dissolute father, is a vigorous,
clean cut type. In the development
of the action there is a lapse of sev
erul years and Stephen becomes an
old man. t
In one of the scenes Jason rescues
Stephen during a shipwreck and
swims ashore with him. In view of
the fact that Mr. Farnum plays both
pr.rts, the scene constitutes one
of the most remarkable photo
giaphic achievements since the ad
vent of photoplay.

is visiting Pittsburgh' friends.
"Gasolene gives a very satisfactory

remarked during a recent conversation
willi friends in the Northsiile Police
Station. They don't drink it, you know,
They inhale the vapor.
"The effect is about the same as

if its use is kept up very long and
persons who have inhaled very much
of it get to be just like dope fiends. It
finally results in death, the blood ap
parently breaking down.
"Two boys started the use of gas
olene as a substitute for booze around
Sapulpa, where 1 have been," said Mr.
j Dougherty. "One of them died in con
I vidsions and the other became very
sick after a few weeks, but by that
time several other young follows had
started to inhale it too. Generally they
go on their first jag just out of cur
iosity and then keep it up just because
they like it.
"Casng head gas is the most ef
fective because is evaporates so read
ily. They put a pint or so in a bucket,
hold their heads over it and in a few
minutes they are happy. Cheap an I
