"Just Married" At the Rialto Isabelle O'Madigan, With Fran cine Larrimore, at the Klaw Rudolph Valentino in "The Conquering Power" 0 (Continued from pac? one) their intention to produce a new bill of four of these playlets every six weeks, running each group for only one or two weeks. They have now in preparation four unusual sketches, one of which, from the Rumanian, has never been seen in America. Gustav Blum will continue as director. Martha Lorber, who has been en? gaged by Carle Carlton for "Tanger? ine," the starring vehicle for Julia San? derson which will open early in August, promises a surprise for her dance num? bers wherein she is to be supported by eight prima donnas, who are slated to outrival the famous sextet of "Florodora." Miss Lorber was for? merly the principal dancer of "Mecca" and was also assistant director of Fo? so it is safe to assume that "Tan? gerine" will show some novelties in the terpsichorean end of the show. John Drinkwater's "Abraham Lin? coln" was revived in London last week for a special engagement that will ex? tend for eight weeks at least.

By a last-minute arrangement the play was put into the Lyceum Theater in? stead of the Lyric Opera House in the Hammersmith suburb where it played for a year when it was first produced. The shift has a particular interest be? cause this is the first time "Abraham Lincoln" has been presented in the center of London and also because it is now in a house which has hitherto been given over to "blood and thun? der" melodramas, and the Drinkwater drama will now find a new audience in striking contrast to those it drew in Hammersmith. Adolph Klauber sailed yesterday on Cedric for a brief vacation in Lon? don and Paris, at the conclusion of which he will be joined by his wife. Jane Cowl, for a motor trip through the Swiss Alps. Mr.

Klauber expects to re? turn to New York about the middle of August to begin his activities for the coming season. One of his early pro? ductions will be "Like a King," by John Hunter Booth, which had its try-out at Atlantic City in May. Far from interfering with the activi? ties of the Morosco companies that are busy with plays for the approaching sear Cast for "Bits of Life" Marshall Neilan is still engaging people for his "Bits of Life." The ac? quisitions are Harriet Hammond, Noah Beery and John Bowers. Harriet Ham? mond is one of the famous Mack Sen hett beauties and this will be her first dramatic part. The Chinese episode for "Bits of Life," in which Hugh Wiley, Saturday Evening Post writer, collaborated, is now finished and the final episode is al? ready under way.

The production will be completed within the next ten days. In addition to the above players it of? fers such popular artists as Lon Cha ney, Fellows, James Bradbury Fred Burton, Anna May Wong and Teddy Sampton. The picture will be released by Associated First National early in the fall. At Starlight Park These days of tropic heat send the crowds to Starlight Amusement Park by the hundreds to take advantage of the big salt water swimming pool. Wednesday of this week will be Kiddie Klub Kamival Day, with a program ex? tending over all of the rides, shows and other amusements, from 10 o'clock in the morning until 6:80 at night.

They will begin at the pool and end with sports In the athletic field, and from 2 to 4 will occupy the musical comedy theater with the Kiddie Klub's own show. Mew Vera Gordon Picture Vera Gordon will leave for Atlantic City in a few days to appear as a spe? cial attraction at the Keith Theater in one-act playlet that has gone well over the Keith circuit. Immediately this engagement Mrs. Gordon re? turns to New York to begin work on her new picture, as yet nnnamed. Wil? liam Nigh has been engaged by Harry Rapf to direct this special Gordon pro? duction.

Alice in "The Inner Chamber" Alice Joyce has two leading men in her new picture, "The Inner Chamber," based on a novel by Charles Caldwell Dobie. They are Holmes E. Herbert, who played opposite Miss Joyce in sev? eral of her productions, and Pedro de Cordoba, who has recently become as? sociated with motion pictures. The re? mainder of the cast is equally notable, including Jane Jennings, Mrs. De Wolf Hopper, Ida Waterman, Josephine Grace Barton and John Webb Dillon.

son, the hot weather has but Incited the manager to invent a method for spur? ring them on, but his plan is one which the city actor, doomed to rehearsals in hot and dusty halls and theaters, would be glad to have all managers adopt. For Mr. Morosco his had a stage constructed on the lawn of his estate at Great Neck and will conduct rehearsals for his two musical productions "Love Time" and "Poor Letty" out of doors and within reach of the breezes from the Sound. "Love Time" is scheduled to open on August 23, and "Poor Letty" will be seen about September 15. John Drew as chairman of the Na? tional Theatrical Committee of Near East Relief, announces two special per? formances to be given at the Rosemary Theater, Huntington, Long Island, which has been placed' at its disposal by Row? land Conklin, on FridaV and Saturday, August 5 and 6.

The program will in? clude two Shakespearian scenes, the first act of Rostand's "Romancers," and the last act of Stephen Phillips's "Herod," for which an all-star cast has been or? ganized. Lionel Atwill, Elsie Mackay, Olive Wyndham and William Faversham are among those who have promised to appear. Lottice Howell, a new soprano, will make her at the Strand) Theater to-day, singing the Butterfly Waltz song from Victor Herbert's "Babette." Another voocal feature is the prologue which has been prepared for the male quartet as an introduction to the James Oliver Curwood film, "The Golden Snare." During the week the two or? ganists, Frederick Smith and- Herbert Sisson, will alternate in the playing of DuBois's "Fantasie Triomphal." F. Ray Comstock and Morris Gest, who were the first producers of the intimate type of musical comedy which was presented at the Princess Theater for many seasons, will return this fall to their. original policy of that style of show by producing a new one of the old type at the Princess some time during October.

The Dolly Sisters are under contract to Com? stock Gest, and it is expected that they will return from London about the first of the year to make their appearance here in a Princess piece. Greek Fairy Tale Shown the Rivoli This Week Dudley Murphy has brought a bit of the spirit of ancient Greece to the spec? tators of the Rivoli Theater this week in a scenic fairy story, based on the legend of the Dryad who lives in the cypress tree. The scenery is laid in a cypress grove of California. Mr. Murphy is producing a series of scenica with a story in simple narra? tive.

"The Soul of the Cypress" is the first of the series, and? has for a Btar Chase Herendcen, now appearing in the "Last Waltz." Another Goldwyn Production Goldwyn announces the addition of another picture to its advance list of productions. A comedy of American life entitled "Pardon My French." It is a Messmore Kendall picture, star? ring Vivian Martin, and with titles done by Irvin S. Cobb. The story deals with the adventures of a family which moves from Main Street, Kan? sas, to a Place in the Sun, when they strike oil, with amusing results. "Pardon My French" was directed by Sidney Olcott, who directed Goldwyn'a "Scratch My Back." The story was adapted from Edward Childs Carpen? ter's "Polly in the Pantry." Rupert Hughes on Vacation Rupert Hughes, who writes books, plays, photoplays and titles, actively participates in the screening of his works at the Goldwyn Studios, and in between times composes music, is tak? ing a holiday.

With both his brother, Howard Hughes, and M. D. Gardner, the two-handed author is exploring Lower California in a specially built power boat. The adventurers equipped with still and motion picture cameras, and with various civilized products which will be traded with the natives for local color. The Long Trail for Tom Tom Mix has laid aside his boiled shirt and dinner coat and hit the long trail for the West.

After two strenu-; ous weeks in New York the Fox star left on Tuesday for Hollywood, where he is to start immediately upon an? other picture, the story for which he wrote himself. On his way West Tom stopped at Chicago and Denver to make personal appearances. Mix came East for vacation, but with all the busi? ness he had on hand the vacation de? veloped into two weeks of work.
