Virgin of Strambeul, a master- feature produced by Universal-Jewel, with Priscilla Dean _as the star and di- rected by Tod Browning, is the feature attraction at the Breed Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. The Virgin of Stamboul is heralded as one of the important photo-productions of the year, presented in a big way. It unfolds the life of the mysterious east and reveals the customs of the Turk and the Arab, from the masque at Constanti- nople to*the great Arabian desert. It lays open the heart of Stambeul with its filth and wretchedness, its sin and iniquity. It leads through the door of the sacred temple, through the forbidden portals of the harem, through the vast stretches of the arid waste. 1t srows what happened when a beau- tiful beggar girl, Sari, turned her foot- steps towards the mosque, there to lift her voice in supplication to a God she had never known before. What she saw as she knelt there, her eyes lifted to Allah, will make the blood of fthe bravest man boil, and is the beginning of a fusillade of tense situations follow- ing each other with machine gun-like rapidity. F Whole streets and sections of Sti: boul, “the wickedest city in the east,” have been reproduced for this produc- tion, and many weeks were spent on the desert for certain scenes in this photo- drama. The role of Sari is one which gives Priscilla Dean greater opportunity than che has ever had before, having been written especially for her by H. H. Van Loan. Wheeler Oakman is the captain of the Rlack Horse Troop Wallace Beery as the sheik, E. A. Warren as Yusefl ley, Bdward Burns as the young Amewi- can tourist, Nigel de Brullier as the Ara- bian chief, Bugenie Forde as the mother, Ethel Ritchie as the favorite of the ha- rem and thousands of others contribute to the success of this master feature. Other pictures on the bill include a Carter DeHaven comedy and the Pathe News. Prices during this engagement Il be matinees 20 cents and evemings cents. v The bill at the Breed today consistd of Eugene O'Brien in A Fool and His Men- ey, Galli Curei and Holbrook Blinn in The Madonna of the Slums, a Sunshine comedy and the Pathe News. Four shows today at 1.30, 3, 6.15 and 8.15. The DAVIS THEATRE TODAY. There will be the usual four shows at the Davis today and the programme i one of the best presented this season. The headline act is Jed Dooley and Com- pany in an offering entitled Once Seen Ne'er Forgot. Some say he is eclever, some say he is not. There are so many Dooleys that it is hard to keep them in place. It doesn't make a lot of differ- ence if you do get them confused be- cause each and every one of the Deo- leys are clever. The Dooley in question is Jed. He crowds his versatility into a limited space of time. The second act is sthe three Lordons, a sensational bar act that is different from anything' ever presented here. They are very clever at many difficult tricks which they put over to the best advantage that is they are accomplished in a comedy vein. The third act is Dunham and O'Malley in a comedy, musical and ea- pers. They are seen and heard in song and patter. In the selection of their material they have exercised extreme care. The fourth act is Lamont and Wright, a dainty offering presented by two talented misses. These girls sing a little, jig a litte, joke a little ,and play the harmonica. The fifth act is Me- Laughlin and Evans, a comedy noveity entitled Courtship in the Bowery. The feature picture Katherine MacDon- ald, the famous American beauty in The Turning Point, a six-part First Nation- al attraction. International News with all the latest and up-to-date news and a Mutt and Jeff comedy of unusual mer- it completes the show. Lombardi, Ltd. Coming te the Davis. At the Davis theatre Friday eve, May 28th, Oliver Morosco will present Leo Carillo in Lombardi, Ltd, with Grace Valentine. Those who have theatrical memeries Boing back not too many years may re- call Leo Carillo when he was a vaude. villian and when, dressed in an artist's smock, he would sit at an easel to draw in crayons as he sang or whistied. In those days Carrillo would give a notion of his Latin origin by reciting dialect poems and thus it camé to pass that those who knew him well at once recog- nized a mimetic ability in him—an abil- ity that has true expression in the role of the temperamentai gown designer in the comedy Lombardi, Ltd. For, as the aesthetic gown-maker, Lombardi, Car- rillo is quite to the manner born—with all the airs of the artist and with the soul of a woman and the heart of a boy. The Hattons, Frederick and Fanny—who wrote the play would hardly have found a player better suited to the role of Lom- bardi than is Carrillo and in spite of many performances of the play, he keeps fresh in the part as though he felt every joy and every pang that comes to the designer in his “very special” bus- iness. Mr. Morosco is sending the origi- nal cast. The play will be presented ex- actly as it was in New York. Seat sale Wednesday at 10 a. m. Mail orders with remittance accepted how.
