There was a woman of great wealth, aristocratic and austere, who liked to believe that sho was a great philanthropist and leader in charituble movements. She devoted every spare moment of her time to her hobby but in all she did foreign missions and churity for people of distant lands ! wns her sole purpose. Right at her i iloor there was the Buffering poor and 1 1.... -1 1 1 .J 1 . .

There came into her home a little child, orphaned and adopted by the man of the house against the wife's wishes. How this little girl brought i light into the darkness of this haugh ty woman's ideas of charity will be told in an immensely interesting mov inir nicture to be exhibited at the Sherry theatre today and tomorrow, 1 in the Bluebird scries under the title of "Gloriana," with little Zoe Rao playing the role of the child. This featuro is one of the rare in stances where a little child has been made the star of a photoplny. Owing to the nature of the subject on excep tionally talented child was required to carry the theme tlirough five diffi cult nets. The fact that littlo Zoe Rae available made he production possible, for a child less clever than this talented youngster could not be employed. In the supporting com pany are a dozen mature actors and actresses, including William Canfield, John A.

Hart will be seen at the Arcade theatre, Wednesday and Thursday, in the long-awaited Tri angle "Aztec story," "The Captive God." This play is from the pen of Monte M. Katterjohn and offers Hart in a role that is totally unlike any thing he ever has attempted since his desertion of the footlights for the film studio. The part is that of a stalwart Spaniard, who, shipwrecked in the early part of the sixteenth century, is adopted by the people of Tehuan, in ancient Mexico, and made their lead er because of his superior wisdom. Never since he first entered the mo tion picture fold has Thomas H. Ince bent his efforts toward the produa tion of a drama like "The Captive God." He has preferred to let pass untouched that period of tho world's history which contains some of the most interesting and unusual ro mances ever written. But when Kat terjohn wrote "The Captive God" Ince saw in it the possibilities of a remark' able motion nicture play. With his customary care, Ince has incorporated a great amount of detail into this subject, and the result is a magnificent spectacle-romance. Its scenes are rich with the picturesque- ness tnat abounded in tne Aztec coun try, and its action is tense with dra matic situation.-!. In the tituhir lole, Hart is declared to have render.;.! another fascinating performance Lhii will M.tnblish him still more firmly in tl'e popular favor. He appears, it is ti n , s:ns chaps and sombrero ana six-shooters, but his magnetism is as powerful as ever. The cast that appears in support of IIa:t includes Enid Markey, D. D. Tahler, Dorothy Dalton, Robert Mo Rim, Dorcas Matthews, Herbert Far jean and Robert Kortman. A Lady Who Advertised a Town LvGSU I?3!';$2 5B5-SC(S 'y-S".
