STRONG ATTRACTION
AT EMPRESS TONIGHT
“The Slave Market,” played by
Pauline Frederick, and a Pathe News
will be shown tonight only at the Em
press theater. “The Slave Market”
is a thrilling story of the Spanish
main, with its pirates and gentle
women. The semi-tropical scenery
shown was taken in Cuba. Miss Fred
erick takes the role of a convent-bred
daughter of the governor of one of
the West Indian islands. On her way
home from Spain she is captured by
pirates, and the leader declares her
his slave. It is a strongly emotional
role, that of Ramona, and one suited
ot the talent of Miss Frederick. A
great majority of the situations in
which she figures are of stress, but
there are others that are tender, as
when she is thrown into the company
of the man she loves and who eventu
ally rescues her and escorts her to a
priest. Albert Hart, as Firebrand, the
pirate leader, is as fierce as anyone
could wish, and as convincing a pirate
as every scuttled a ship. Tomorrow
only, Bryant Washburn in the five-act
comedy, “Filling His Own Shoes.”
