BRITISH ANTICIPATE IRISH OUTBREAK ON EASTER: FEAR R!CTS

LONDON, April 2. The British government is taking extraordinary precautions to prevent an uprising in Ireland, in view of reports that the revolt of 1918 will be repeated Easter., Martial law is expected to be declared Saturday night, with orders to police and military to shoot at eight any civilians seen in the streets after 9 o'clock, A number of British warships sailed into Dublin harbor Thursday and dropped anchor, presumably to stay until the threatened Easter crisis has passed. Premier David Lloyd George is reported to have received a "black cross" warning similar to that sent to Lord Mayor MacCurtain, of Cork, before the latter was murdered two weeks ago. Ian MacPherson, whose retirement as Chief Secretary for Ireland was confirmed Thursday, also hag received murder threats. Carson's Life in Danger Sir Edward Carson's recent revelation in the House of Commons that a "murder squad" had left New York to assassinate him, was followed today by an apparently well-founded story to the effect that prior to the recent christening of his son the Ulsterite leader received mysterious warnings that his life was in danger. The government, it is said, appealed to him to conduct a private ceremony. Sir Edward refubed. and, according to the story, almost half of the guests that attended the public ceremony were disguised Scotland Yard detectives. A number of police and military raids took place in various parts of Southern Ireland today, notably in Kilkenny. Search was made for arms and incriminating documents. A number of arrests were made. The situation Is tense throughout the island. No one will be surprised if Easter morning sees an upheaval, though, if Sinn Feiners are preparing a coup, they are doing it so well under cover that, not an inkling of their plans has became known.

The Theatres

WASHINGTON "The Gay Lord Quex," from the noted stage success by Sir Arthur Wing Pinero, presents Tom Moore in the stellar role in this new Goldwyn picture, which will be shown at the

Washington theatre, beginning today. In this production Tom Moore is seen as the type of wooer that popular opinion has named its favorite. His adventures in Cupid's realm are frequent and merry, and Just spicy enough to t out the humorous side of his c .inglements - when his several sweethearts are brought together. The action of the picture is quick and spirited, and so well does the star enact his part hat sympathy swings wholly to Lord Quex when

he gets into difficulties. He has an!

agonizing time trying to prove his sincerity and reformaton to his promised bride in the face of most accusing circumstances, but his efforts are rewarded and all ends happily. MURRAY. The interesting fact that Japanese never kiss is one of the negative facts which provide dramatic effect in Vitagraph's new Earle Williams feature, "When a Man Loves." This production is the feature atraction at the Murray Theatre, now, "When a Man Loves" has several rettings In old Japan, as incidents of the story, and these are packed with color conveying the conditions and customs of the land of the rising sun. It is revealed that Japanese never employ the kiss as a caress. RICHMOND. If you haven't yet been to the Richmond Theatre to see William Russell in his six-reel American special, "Six Feet Four," don't fail to put in your list for today. This is the final day of its showing "Six Feet Four" has been

delighting Richmond audiences, who are unanimous in declaring it far and away the biggest and most dramatic t screen production they have seen this year.

MURRAY. Three young athletic ladies who box and wrestle with all the science and

endurance of professionals, are an en-!

tertaining novelty of the new bill uhich opened yesterday at The Murray for the last half. Hugo Lutgens who bills himself as "The Swede Billy Sunday" has an amusing turn in which he satires the Sunday characteristics in an Inoffensive manner. The Gilrain Girls, seven in number, have g, pretentious dancing act ranging from the classic to the modern dances. An elaborate stage setting greatly enhances their offering. Earl Williams makes violent love in "When A Man Loves," and rounds out a bill thoroughly entertaining throughout. MURRAY. Devotees of the seductive "jazz" notes will hail with delight the announcement of the engagement of Mabel Whitman and "Her Dixie Boys" on the new bill which has been especially booked for Easter week at The Murray, opening Monday afternoon. A

prime favorite in vaudeville is Mabel Whitman, "Novelty" is her middle name, she leads a merry chase for her "Dixie Boys." Also on this bill comes Santucci, the "Wizard of The Piano-accordeon". Frank Holland states he has appeared on various bills with this artist, and that he is a veritable sensation wherever he is booked. He has a varied repertoire, but it is with his popular numbers at the finish that send him over so big. John F. Conroy and Sister in "Nifty Originalities" are also underlined to show on this bill, and advance reports state they are one of the best finds in vaudeville this season. They were the hit of the bill at Columbus, Ohio, last week. . Clifford and Marsh are two clever boys who have an artistic novelty offering. One of them paints oil pictures very rapidly, while his partner entertains on the ylophone simultaneously.
