WASHINGTON Nazimova, the distinguished Russian actress is the attraction today the Washington theatre, in the powerful drama, "The Red Lantern." She is seen in a dual role, playing both Mahlee, the Eurasian, and Blanche, the English girl. The roles are of such vastly different character, that it is amazing to think that one woman could portray them both. As Mahlee, Nazimova is supreme depicting the passionate and inscrutable daughter of two races the child of an English father and a Chinese mother whose instincts, traditions and emotions surge in constant conflict making of her a mental outcast, belonging to neither race. The story reaches dramatic heights when the unhappy girl finds that her yellow blood is an insurmountable bar

rier between a young missionary whom

she loves and herself, and that although he is powerfully attracted to j her, this difference of race can never be overcome. Wild jealousy grips her when she finds that he really loves i her half-sister, Blanche, (also played

by Nazimova), and in a frenzy she agrees to the proposal of Sam Wang, who loves her, but whom she hates, to go with him and lead the yellow races in an uprising against the whites. She

assumes the fantastic title of the Goddess of the Red Lantern, which thrills the people to a frantic religious frenzy, and they determine to exterminate the "foreign devils." Relentless remorse seizes her for what she has done, and at great risk to her own life she tries to save those of her fathers' race whom she loves. A tragic end occurs when the girl realizes that she belongs to neither people and can never hope for happiness with either. In beautiful contrast to this unequal struggle is the romance of Blanche and the young missionary.

mous photoplay that Mr. Sennet uses in his demonstration at the Washington, June 8, 9, 10 and 11. This is a five-part comedy that took months to prepare and upon which was spent a neat little fortune. Prior to Its being flashed on the screen, a short Mack Sennett comedy will be shown. Immediately following this, the curtain rises on a beautiful bathing drop, in front of which are six

beautiful Mack Sfrnott h-' - .. Yes sir, real-honest-to-goodness Sennett dolls. They wiu i,.., clever little offering entitled "We are ; the Mack Sennett bathing girlies.": Special music has been arranged for i this number. Incidently, this will i mark the first time that Mr. Sennett i has ever permitted his girls to appear j before the public. t MURRAY How does an Innocent woman act i when faced with circumstantial evi- j dence that indicates she is implicated, i

with the man she loves, in the murder of her husband? This is a question raised in a famous case now being tried In one of the criminal courts. Wile legal men conjecture variously regarding the conduct of the woman in question, but no one can show better than a woman the true feminine state of mind and Its expression under such circumstances. Miss Madlaine Traverse, the motion picture actress, has made a deep study

of the emotions of women under such

stress, and gives a wonderful portrayal of a woman who faces this trying ordeal in "When Fate Decides," which is showing at the Murray theatre today. 4

"You Led Him" said the judge "You are more guilty than he." I hold you just a 3 guilty as if you had shot the man yourself. Your extravagance drove your husband to thievery and finally to murder itself. What have you to say for yourself?" The judge leaned over the bench and fairly boiled with anger as he denounced her.
