“THE WARRIOR’S HUSBAND’ ’ SATIRE ON WOMEN’S SUPREMACY. An unusual picture makes its debutar, the Cambridge Theatre to-night, when “The Warrior’s Husband/’ treating in satirical manner the supremacy of women over men, will be screened. The two lovers, Elissi Landi and David Manners, make an ideal pair, for they both have the qualities of strength and leadership demanded br the story. Although treated as & farce there are many points in the dialogue that have a deeper and more philosophical reference. Tho story opens with the impending war by the Greeks on the Amazons, In tho State of Amazon the women are tho superior beings and work and fight, for their men, who have deteriorated into weak, useless creatures. Marjorie Ramboau plays the part of the master ful queen of the Amazons, who *S forced into that new institution, “marriage,” with the effeminate son of a rich femalo general of her army. The difficult part of the prince consort is ably played by a newcomer to the screen, Ernest Truex.
