Charles Cherry and Cyril Scott Are New Scx-een Heroes Boohed for American.
Twj old favorites, Robert Warwick and Pauline Frederick, and two new candidates for screen hon.rs, diaries Cherry and Cyril Scott are the fi'.m stare announced at the American for the coming week.
Mr. Warwick is featured in "The Sins of Society," today's photoplay. The story is located on land and sea •with race tracks, gambling dens and eieuthery figuring in the telling.
Marion Beaumont and her younger sister, Gwendolin, are orphans, inheriting from their father a mortgaged estate, gamblin instincts and a social position to uphold. Through gambling and card debts they become deeply involved. Marion gets into the hands of Noai Ferrers, v/h j, under the pretense of helping her, is gradually drawing her into a web of serious trouble, so that he can oompel her younger sister,
Owen,
to become his wife. Ferrers
persuades Mlaxion, In a fit of desperation, to show a magnificent tiara of precious stones lent to her by Madame D'Orville, to Morris, a society pawnbroker.
Much trouble and many serious complications follow. It is an intensely dramatic srtixry. In the cast with Mr. Warwick are Ralph Delmore, Robert B. Man tell, Jr., Royal Byron, Frances Nelson, and others.
Charles Cherry makes his screen debut in "The Mummy and the Hum-, ming Bird." Monday and Tuesday's feature. Mr. Cherry is a popular Charles Frohman star. With him are associated Lillian Tucker, Arthur Hoops, William Sorelle, Claire Zchelle, Charles Coleman and Nina Lirid-
sey. Wednesday and Thursday's feature in "Not Guilty," an Equitable production with Cyril Scott in a strong dramatic role. Mr. Scott was last seen here as the star of "Seven Keys to Baldpate" at the Grand.
Pauline Frederick, who was recently seen at the American in "The Eternal City' has the name part in "Bella Donna," which will be shown on Friday and Saturday. This is an adaptation of Robert Hichens' and J. B. Fagan's novel and play. The story is to: familiar to be summarized here. It lends itself to picturization very readily, most of the scenes being laid in Egypt. This oriental atmosphere is thoroughly created not only by the scenes but by the remarkably fine makeups of the actors. The women will be especially interested in this photoplay, not only for its intrinsic merit, but by reason of the vast quantity of dresses which Miss Frederick is called upon to wear.
A week of "first run'r pictures is announced at the Fountain. Today's fea...tures are "Woman," Essanay two-reel comedy, with Charles Chaplin "The

Vandeville Novelties a Plenty on Both Programs Announced At the Popular Playhouse.
With a stellar list of vaudeville features making up b.itli the first and last ha.lt of tile week program at the H'ipodromo, the coming week, which is being advertised as "Fall Festival Week," promises some excellent entertainment. As a special feature of -he Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday show, Harry W. Springold presents Leila Shaw & Co. in the most unique vaudeville sketches, "Which Shall I Many?" which is said to be the newest thing in vaudeville. It was Mr. Springold who first introduced Emma Cams, Sarah Paddeu and Amelia Bingham into vaudeville circles. With his new production he has banded together an all-star cast which includes Leila Shaw, Willis Hall, Ainswortn Arnold and Rosemary Beverage. Die act is ar. allegorical sketch in four episodes, dealing with a girl wno haa a chance to "marry for money" or "marry for love," and apparently dosigrncd to make all girls :f the marriageable age think, and it probably will.
The Busch Bros., "The Ship Ahoy Boy?," are a pair of clean cut entertainers wit?h something brand new in the way of a comedy offering. Tho two hoys are new to vaudeville In the middle west, but have been 'favorites in the larger houses of the east fyr the past several seasons. The Hippodrome Four, made up of youngsters in a riotously funny comedy offering entitled "Dingelsplel's Xight School," furnishes another strong comedy. The boys are said to possess excellent voices and offer some good harmony singing.
Lee Barth, "The Man With '.he Nutty Dialect,' adds still another comedy feature, and gives full measure with an original monologue and a series of character impersonations that are comically clev?r. "Visions D'Art," styled "The Act Beautiful," introducing Mile. Blanrhette, the perfect woman, in poses, completes the bill for the first half.
SCOUTS PEACE TALK.
Hamburg Newspaper Says Germany Has Unlearned Sentimentalism. BERLIN*. Nov. 27.—The Hamburger Nochrichtei, published under the caption, "Mistaken Suggestions," a scornful disclaimer of any eagerness for: peace on the part of Germany.
After denying as "pure invention" the recent report in American newspapers of an alleged telegram sent by Count Von Bernstorff to the kaiser in which the ambassador said peace could be attained only through the help of President Wilson, the paper stamps as "equally absurd," the conditions on which Germany was reported as willing to make peace, including the evacuation of Belgium, in return forth© cession of the Belgian Congo. "Whenever there is talk of the evacuation of Belgium," said the paper,

"It is time that this rubbish received a quietus by means of a short and decisive word. Now, forced into the war in spite of its compliant spirit, Germany has shown what it is and what it can do and how it strikes. Our sword will serve us to restore peace, not a' spirit 'of yiel'dihg. and whoever counts on the German-empire as it was before th.e. war and. with old. lonjjr paPt conditions, is choosing a false comparison.

Really, there's no excuse ^for the query—is "The Only Girl" & two dollar show.
On all that I can figure on,, It Is!
Valeska Suratt, who is out in California posing at the Lasky film studio, had her choice of two photoplays—one in which she would be cast as a successful Broadway star, while in the other she must represent a Russian peasant girl. And Valeska elected to appear as the peasant girl. Now the admirers of the Terre Haute girl are wondering how she will find excuse for displaying all those new clothes while playing the new part of a poor Russian immigrant.
Raymond Hitchcock and Cohan and Harris would seem to have come to a n"rting of the ways. It is announced that Mr. Hitchoock will go with the London Gayety Co next year. And all because Mr. Hitchcock couldn't keep out of the movies. That's the inside dope on the situation, I'm told.
The musical reveres now running in London and the English provinces bear such titles as "Who's Who," Don Argue," "Some Glee," "Charlie Chaplin Mad" and "If You Can't Be Good." You would hardly think England was mixed up in the war judging by these titles, would you?
The London Gaiety theatre production of "Tonight's the Night." with the all English cast and chorus, comes to the Grand next Sunday.
This is the first company from the Gaiety to visit American cities in fifteen years. The last one to play over here appeared in a piece called "In Town." This was in 1897 and included among its members Miss Florence Lloyd, Miss Minnie Hunt, Miss Marie Studholme and Miss Rosie Boote. In 1896 another company presented "The Artist's Model." Lawrence D'Orsay was a member of this cast, as was Maurice Farkoa. The first London Gaiety company seen in this country was the one headed by Fred Leslie and Nellie Farren. They appeared in "Monte Christo, Jr." The famous dancer. Letty Lind, inventor of the skirt dance, was a member of that company.
After losing $160,000 of o. p. m. Ned Way burn is out of the New York Century theatre and his revere, "Town Topics," has been taken over by the Shuberts. The show will be cut and sent on the road.
Mike Leavltt, one of the oldest of theatrical managers, a real showman of the old school, is to have a benefit at the Manhattan opera house in New York. It should be a whopper.
Mizai Hajos has left the cast of "Sari," which opened the regular season at the Grand, to take up rehearsals of a new Hungarian operette, "The King of the Crooks."
"The Princess Pat," the comic opera by Henry Blossom and Victor Herbert, whose "The Only Girl" is with us today, will be done on the road by a second company.
