State Lea- In the first of the 140-game dule, newspaper writers for BEAUTY FILM AT UNITED THEATER "Let Not Man Put Asunder," the J. Stuart Blackton production adapted from Basil King's famous novel of the same name, will be the attraction at the United, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. This is the most sensational emotional exposition of the pitfalls of marriage and divorce ever on the screen. The theme of love misguided provides one of the most gripping, human, heart-touching stories offered motion picture lovers. It is a ringing indictment of divorce and a stirring appeal to men and women who contemplate marriage, to abandon the follies of modern life wherein lies the perils of discontent. It is a picture of beauty; the sets are lavish and there is an atmosphere of luxury that places the picture far in advance of any recently shown here. It breathes wealth and society, yet possesses the element of greatness in drama, human characters who live and suffer and are regenerated through the supreme sacrifice. Pauline Frederick and Lou Telegen, two of the greatest emotional players on the screen, have the leading roles and are supported by Leslie Ansten, Helena D'Ally and an all-star cast of players.

DEMPSEY TO ACT AND TRAIN, ALSO LOS ANGELES, May 3.—Confident that the emissary Jack Kearns is sending to dicker with eastern boxing potentates for a Labor Day bout will return with gladsome tidings, William Harrison Dempsey today viewed the completed quarters he had caused to be furnished in anticipation of an exchange of fistcuffs with someone from the ranks of the heavies arising to dispute his title as world champion. All of which does not mean that Dempsey is going to cast aside his fat contract with the movies, for that astute gentleman has done a bit of cogitating during the last few weeks and finds he can easily do his stunt before the camera and still train for a fight. Establishment of training quarters at this time will also save this champion a tidy sum for the big-hearted movie magnates have donated the use of a large build-ing on an isolated stretch of the vast Universal estate near this city. Dempsey declared today Kearns has instructions to arrange for a fight with someone—anyone—on Labor Day, or as near that date as possible. BREA NEWS BREA, May 3. (SpL)—Mr. and Mrs. L. L.

This picture a feature in ten reels has played special engagements in the larger cities and comes to Anaheim acclaimed by critics as one of the masterpieces of filmdom. "Scaramouche" is a story of the French Revolution. It tells the romance of Andre-Louis Moreau (Ramon Novarro) and Alice de Kercadion (Alice Terry). Andre-Louis has been brought up as the ward of Aline's uncle. The Marquis de la Tour d'Azyr (Lewis Stone), a haughty aristocrat and man of fashion, killed. Andre-Louis' friend, Philippe, because of his revolutionary sentiments, and on the Marquis Andre-Louis has sworn eternal vengeance. To make matters worse the Marquis is courting Aline. Andre's seditious speeches cause him to be sought for the gallows, and in escaping from the pursuing gendarmerie, he joins a strolling band of players and becomes Scaramouche, the clown Bitterness against Alline leads him into an affair with the leading lady of the troupe, but he ends this when the girl accepts attentions from the Marquis. Skilled in fencing, Andre-Louis Moreau is persuaded to become substitute deputy in the National Assembly of France for a deputy who was killed in the series of duels brought by the aristocrats against the people's representative. In a duel with La Tour d'Azyr, that is the culmination of his activities in the Assembly, Andre-Louis wounds the Marquis, and Andre's misunderstanding of Alline's actions after the duel, further widens the breach between them. The fires of rebellion among the lower and middle classes of Paris are finally fanned into open revolt. The patriot Danton (Geo. Siegmann) leads the mob to the Tuilleries, where the monarchy is overthrown. The Marquis escapes from the massacre at the Tuilleries, and seeks shelter at the house where also is Aline, who has been unable to escape from the city. Andre-Louis comes to save her, and finds the Marquis there. The two men are on the point of killing each other when revelations are made that disclose Andre's real identity. A Fable and a news reel complete this high class program. Last time tonight of "Women Who Give," with Barbara Bedford and Frank Keenan.
