We hear the lady hails from Texas.

The spectators gaso at the end of the play when the hero carelessly tears into bits the confession which will clear forever and ever his lady love's name. One of these days she's going to need it, when some one casts up her police record at her. Then what's to do? I do hope he remembered in time and pasted the bits together.

The occasion of the resuscitation of the piece was farther marked by the presentation, by jnembers of the Actors' Equity Association, of a mammoth loving cup to Fran- cis Wilson, their president emeri- tus. AH of which had nothing to do with but was a rather moving and sincere tribute, and -caused at least one suave trooper to blink away a salty tear as he murmured, in our hearing, that Mr. Hopper's and Mr.

"THE BAIT." Produced by Maurice Tourneur. Presented at the Rialto, THE CAST. Mary Granger Mope Hampton Jark Warren. Henry Woodward Uarton Jack MacOonald Doll.v Kbberly John James Cordon Simpson Joe Singleton Madeline Poupee AuUrilot Jimmy Cummins By BOYLE. I don't know much about Hope Hampton, except that she was a Texas girl and boasts auburn hair and very blue eyes, and she's one of the most earnest little actresses I've seen for a long time.

Just to see her, fresh and genuine, is enough to make "The Bait" worth while. As a photoplay, particularly one sponsored by Tourneur, the picture at the Rialto this week is a bit of a disappointment. Tourneur ought to stick to the Mohicans and the Stevensonian adventure tales, and leave these society crooks alone. Not that, of its kind, "The Bait" Isn't a good picture. It is only that Its kind isn't good enough for the talents of Tourneur.

What is it all about? Well, of coursa. you know what the bait was. A delectable girl. Right. And the fish? A rich man, yoang and romantic.

Only the bait had a will of her own and didn't want to tempt the poor fish who had saved her from the devouring lions at the Polies Bergere. (One of the best thrillers I've seen for a long time, by the way, those lions tearing loose in a Paris theatre.) The story is highly improbable, but has its fine and convincing moments. The players are medium good. James Gordon and Ray Eb- Where You Can See Your Favorite Stars This Information has been gathered with, great care from responsible sources.
