In a dramatic scene where ihe theatrical manager has his great "self battle" this evil spirit actually appears on the screen behind him and urges him to steal the play. Against this sinister power of his "evil self" his own sense of right and justice seem unable to asert themselves. His conscience is crushed and for a time he is pompletely in the clutches of his "evil self." All this is actually shown in the great picture. Coming from nowhere the devil in person is seen battling with the man for supremacy. And when he has won and the good in the man is broken the evil spirit fades away as mysteriously as it appeared. The character of Stephen Hunt, the theatrical man, ini whose heart this battle between good and evil takes place, is played in a finished manner by Harry Burkhardt. ARCADE A CONEY ISLAND PRINCESS AT ARCADE THEATER TODAY In the course of events Pete wan ders into "The Turkish Dream" where Tessie Mooney, "Princess Zim-Zim," is dancing. But the sudden defection of the piano pliiyer leaves the show in a precarious condition. Pete saunters into the show and absently starts former fiancee, but when Tessie kisses him one day, he takes her in his arms, for ho is lonely and disconsolate and then realizes that tlfe girl thinks that he is ini love with her. Rather than break her heart by disillusioning her, Pete makes the great mistake of de ciding to go through with the mar riage, because he has just read in the paper of the engagement of Alice to another man. So Tessie is taken to the atmos phere of Fifth avenue and Pete re Veals himself in his true colors as a millionaire.

He is offered $10 a week to continue his activities be fore the piano and decided to take it. Tessie's finer qualities respond to the refinement of this stranger and before the girl realizes it, sho is in love with him. He docs not consider her serious ly because he is still in love with his Tivssie's former modes of life and those of Pete are frequent The result is an interesting study in human na ture.

Commencing tomorrow the Arcade theater will present famous Mary Pickford in her new photoplay pro duced by her own company and re leased by Artcraft, "The Pride of the ClaiK" Every Scotchman in the country hails with delight the news that "Lit tle Mary" has selected the role of "Marget MacTavish" as her next screen impersonation. For a long time Caledonians have hoped to see the most popular girl in the world char acterize the charming lass of the theater and that she will forever im mortalize the typical winsomeness of Scotland's fair daughters -wiAi char acteristic effectiveness is readily ex pected. However, tho wonderful heart appeal as well as dramatic finesse dis played in "Tho Pride of tho Clan" makes it an offering that will prove of universal appeal. During her long and brilliant career on the screen "Lit' tie Mary" has portrayed characters of a number of different nationalities, her recent photoplay, "Less Than the Dust" having met with record-breaking success throughout the entire country. It is a long way from' the banks of the Ganges to the wind blown fields of Scotch heather but it is a trip that Miss Pickford has taken in the interval between "Less Than the Dust" and "The Pride of the Clan," a story of the northwest of Scotland. On account of tho contract made with the Artcraft Pictures Corporation, the Arcade management is forced to charge a minimum of 15c for all Pick ford pictures produced by Artcraft; children 5c as usual.
