“SILVER SLAVE” AT EMPIRE
Irene Rich is the star of “The Silver Slave,” now at the Empire Theatre.
She plays the part of a youthful widow, victim of gold-seeking parents, who married her to the highest bidder, while the man she loved was cast aside. She is determined that her wilful daughter shall not make the same mistake, and takes it upon herself to use her personal charms to win away the rich undesirables whose wooing lias captivated the child. This she does successfully, not without causing furious anger in the heart of the voung woman until the reason is explained. Brilliant and glamorous is this s’t-ry of modern people. The cast includes Audrey Ferris, Holmes Herbert, John Miljan and Carrol Nye. “The Grip of the Yukon,” an exciting drama of life in Alaska, will also be shown, starring Neil Hamilton and P'rancis X. Bushman. Louiso Dressler’s first starring picture under contract with Fox Films, will be made in Italy under direction of John G. Blystone. The latter will leave Hollywood with his staff. Miss Dressier, and other performers yet to be seloted shortly from Rome, Naples, and Venice.
