I THE NINTH ONE. ’ The ninth of the “Who Bays?" series entitled "The Pomp of Earth,” presents a condition which is probbaly . more common than anything yet shown in the group. It deals with the exceedingly common situation of a young man of promise and honesty, who becomes a crook through the influence of a girl, whose only object tin to him is that he has not enough . money. A bank president, who has plundered his bank, is released from prison after a very light sntence, ■ while the casher is left to serve a long erm, though entirely innocent. The ashler swears to have revenge. Cole, the president, goes west under the name of Walker, and using the stolen funds, poses as a capitalist and soB iety man. He is spotted as a fine s atch by the avaricious mother of a ;irl who is loved by a young and modera’ely successful broker. The girl s of the weak sort’, who is willing to sell herself for luxury but gives the j broker a chance to show that he can become rich. Goaded by the fear of losing the girl, he embezzles custoc rners’ funds as well as those of a club i. of which he is treasurer. Meantime t e girl announces her engagement •- > he successful thief. The broker t decides to kill him, but on that very y ight he is slain by the cashier who 1 is escaped from prison. The broker t takes the only course he sees left and a ommits suicide. The girl’s greed has killed a true lover, and brought only ruin to her self. As usual Henry King id Ruth Roland play leads. At the 1 Crystal Tuesday evening. Three oth-' j er reels in connection.
