All of the feminine players, gor geously costumed, appeared in these first, scenes. They include Mary MacLaren in the part of Queen Anne of Austria; Marguerite De La Motte, as Constance; Barbara La Marr, characterizing Milady, ami all of the ladies in waiting. The Queen’s room is as near the exact reproduction of the famed bou doir as it was humanly possible to make it.

GRATE FIRE COST AGED WOMAN LIFE Miss Mary Andrews, of Pleasant Hill Section, Terrell County Found Dead In Home The body of Miss Mary Andrews, ! a prominent and beloved woman of the Pleasant Hill community, ,luZ across the line in Terrell county, was found Sunday about noon lying on the hearth in her bedroom, head be tween the andirons, horribly burned as was her chest and one arm, from the blazing open fire. She had only a few moments before left the living I room, where she had been - talking ■ with her nephew and niece, Mr. and I Mrs. Windsor Allen, who made then' I home with her. The physician and i undertaker are of the opinion that Miss Andrews suffered a stroke of apoplexy, death being instant. This was borne out by the fact that there were no indications of a struggle aft er she had fallen in the fire. The rocking chair in which she had been sitting was quite near the hearth, and it is supposed that as she rose to reach for something on the mantel she was stricken and never had a conscious moment to make an out cry for help. Miss Andrews was about 70 years of age. For many years she and her sister, Miss Kittie Andrews, had lived quietly and happily in a pretty home on the Dawson-Americus road, •their large farm being one of the test in Terrell county-' The death of Miss Kittie occurred December 23, 1920, and the aged sister never re covered from the shock of this be reavement. ’ ‘ i Miss Mary Andrews was the last I member of the immediate family. She iis survived by several nieces and nephews, among them Mr. and Mrs. Windsor Allen, who lived in her home and cared for her tenderly in her declining years. The funeral service was held Monday afternoon at Enterprise Methodist church, where she had long been a faithful and devoted member. Her pastor, Rev. C. M. Infinger, conducted tihe service in the presence of a great concourse of neighbors and friends.
