Mischa Elman, noted violinist, who will give a recital on Sunday afternoon, Feb. 3, at the Murat, under the direction of the Ona B. Talbot Fine Arts Enterprises, strange to say, never carries his violin. Usually the public, in thinking of an artist, thinks of his instrument as being absolutely attached to him all the time. While it is true that Elman loves his violin as he would the “apple of his eye,” he. nevertheless, trusts it on all his trips to the care of his accompanist. His violins are carried on tour in a regulation double case. He always takes his Stradivarius and Amati with him. On tour he looks after them himself and they are cleaned thoroughly every day with a chamois cloth. Great care is always taken to Mermaid comedy, “Neck and Neck,” featuring Lige Conley, and the Circlette of News. “The Woman in White” will play “F.nlandia,” by Sibelius, on the Circle Organ, and the Circle orchestra will piay an overture. -I- -I- -|- OLD-TIME MELODRAMA BOOKED AT APOLLO SUNDAY In screening “Hoodman Blind,” next week’s attraction at the Apollo, William Fox has picturized one of the most famous plays in the annals of American theatricals.

The .story treats with man's injustice when blinded by jealousy, and the evil wrought by scandal-mongers. In the little seacoast town of Freeport, Jack Yeulette, a young sailor, sees a woman whom he thinks Is his wife in the arms of another man.

see that none of the rosin from the strings sticks to th.e case, f.or that would interfere with the tone production. “I have as much trouble with my violin,” he says, “as. I would with my wife were I married. Soinetnnes ] pick on the violin and sometimes the violin picks on me—that is, try as I will to get it to respond, it simply won’t. “My violin can drive me into as excited a frenzy if it is in bad humor as I imagine my wife could, and if it is in good humor it makes me feel as happy as I could possibly feel. I really have come to regard my violin as having an actual personality. That isj, perhaps, because I am associated ho closely with it. and because it is as much a part of my life as any other thing. Perhaps I shall never marry and my violin will remain my lifelong companion.” Without investigating the truth of her statements he leaves her. Da t ys and nights of misery, made all the worse by the villainous schemes off Mark Lazzard, a crooked lawyer, follow for both. Then during a storm along the cmast Yeulette rescues a woman from a wrecked fishing smack. She proves to be a counterpart of his wife and. *her half sister, whose existence he “had never known of. She confesses her part of a well-laid plot to separate Yeulette and nis wife. About the same time the fattier of both girls, missing for many years, appears on the scene, clears the mystery that had clouded their lives, and aids in bringing to his just deserts. Many thrilling and spectacular episodes are enaelod. The storm scenes were actually photographed during a. terrific gale off the shores of New England. In the cast are David Butler y G/iadys Hulette.
