the attraction at the Arcade Sunday
in tho great comedy success, "The
Mun Prom Mexico." Mr. iBarrymore
depicts tho character of Fitzhew, tho
gay young married man who still
longs for the cabarets and other de
lights of his bachelor days, and there
by gets himself into dreadful dilem
mas from which he extricates himself
only by the most wonderful inventions
possible to even an untruthful man.
All the delicious humor of Mr. Barry
more's delightful personality is at its
best in his portrayal 'of the light
'hearted and light-headed, bibulous
Fitzhew, whoso mythical adventures
in Mexico the comedy so laughably
unfolds.
Clementina Fitzhew decides to
spend a night with her mother, but
happening to overhear her husband
planning a wonderful time at the Cafe
Cleopatra with his friend and boon
compunion, Majors, she determines to
follow them to the gay cafe and watch
haibby. Fitzhew and Majors betake
themselves in blissful ignorance to the
Cleopatra, and proceed to partake not
wisely tout too well of the flowing
bowl. A picture of Clementina falls
from Fitzhew's wallet, and is seized
by Paquita, a Spanish dancer, who
keeps it to tease Fitzhew. Majors
persuades Fit&hew to leave while still
able to walk, and m they depart
Clementina, veiled, accompanied by
Farrar, the district attorney' nephew,
who is in. love with f.-illle, Fittshew's
sister, enter. At this ' jua'.'.-i.'O the
place is raided, tea C!emeiit.:.a and
Farrar manage to cnc, after giv
ing fictitious names to the police; but
ARCADE
Clementina's face is seen -by Louis,
the waiter, who is arrested because he
refuses to give her description to tho
officer.- On his way home the joyful
but unsteady Fitzhew engages in bat
tle with a cabman, and Fitzhew and
the cabby are arrested and (taken to
court, whore Fitzhew talks too much
and is given thirty days on the island.
When Fitzhew finally realizes what
has happened, he is at his wits' end
to account for the thirty days' absence
to his wife, and being allowed by the
authorities to say farewell, tells her
ho is going to Mexico for a month.
Clementina, afraid .of being appre
hended on account of the raid, and
not wishing anyone to know of her
own jaunt, is with difficulty restrained
from going with him.
From now on, Fitzhew's adventures
on the "island," among his fellow
prisoners, his attempts to play on the
love of the district attorney's nephew
for Sallie, his discovery that the war
den has the picture of Clementina,
stolen by Paquita, and is in love with
Mrs. Fitzhew, his hungry attempts to
steal from the other convicts, his
meeting with Louis, the waiter at the
Cleopatra, who wants to kill the war
den and escape, the visit of Clemen
tina to the prison notknowing 'her hus
iband is there, and the melodramatic
jail delivery, culminating "in- Fitzhew's
triumphant recapture of the escaping
prisoners and his congratulations by
the authorities, leave nothing to be de

situations. His return home at the
