Lovers Meet Behind Scenes at the Orpheum in Salt Lake. THOSE "back stage" at the Orpheum this week are enjoying a joke which they consider a huge one, and which gives promise of ripening into a romance ro-mance although It Is not known definitely defi-nitely that aught but friendship now exists. When Harrv Reichman, the comedian with "The Jewel Trio," one of the Or-pheum's Or-pheum's this-week features, left his cafe employment in Salt Iake a couple of years ago, lie was infatuated with Dorothy Dor-othy Wahl, who is also appearing on this week's Orpheum bill in a musical skit with Stewart Jackson. She was then traveling with an act in the east. Later, she and Reichman met in t be west, and an engagement not a theatrical, but a matrimonial was made and announced to friends in the "profession," but before the knot was tied a slight disagreement severed the plans of the young couple. They had not seen each other since until un-til Reichman emerged from his dressing room on the afternoon of their opening show In Salt Lake. He hadn't yet found out who was In the show with him. There was Dorothy Wahl talking to the stage manager. "Dorothy !" "Harry!" In an instant past difficulties were set aside, old disputes forgotten, and the two have been In nearly constant company since. Whether Stewart Jackson will have to seek another partner for Ids act remains to be seen, but if- he does, he can undoubtedly step into the Jewel Trio, for Fa rns worth and Gilson, who are the present partners of Reichman, are daily expecting to receive notice of his, Relchman's, resignation, and In the same moment receive an invitation to his wedding. Large Audiences Greet Marguerite Clark in "The Crucible" at Liberty Theater. THE new policy of the Liberty theater of bringing to Salt Lake for return showing those pictures for which the management has had the greatest number num-ber of requests, seems to be highly acceptable ac-ceptable to large numbers of. photoplay followers, judging front the reception accorded ac-corded Marguerite Clark in "The Crucible." Cruci-ble." a five-act drama, at the; Liberty yesterday. The same programme, Which continues until Saturday night, includes the second story of the sensational "Neal of the Navy" series, in which superb su-perb acting Is done by a splendid cast of Pathe players, headed by William Cou itleigh, Jr., and Lillian Lorraine. Probablv as much as any other single photoplay, "The Crucible" helped to place dainty Miss '"'lark among the smalt trroup of two or three world-leaders in screen popularity. The story is convincing, con-vincing, clean and. at times, most pathetic. pa-thetic. It Mas its flashes of bright comedy com-edy and its big moments of dramatic suspense. From a photographic viewpoint view-point it is one of the best camera dramas ever seen. Tb?
