THE RELX THEATRE | Showing Paramount, Mutual and other I First Class Pictures. g TODAY TOURS AROUND THE WORLD. Geo. Ovey in “JERRY’S WHIRLWIND FINISH.” j | Helen Holmes in “The Lost Express.” Chapter IV, | I “THE OIL WELL CONSPIRACY." Valquez, the diplomatic crook, orders Helen, unconscious, she having been brought there from the wreck, removed at once. This excites the curiosity of Detevtlce Murphy, who sees in Valquez's anxiety possible explanation of the mystery of “The Lost Express.’’ Helen has traced "Harelip” to a lonely cabin where the missing part of the Thurston patent is hidden. Then it is discovered that “The Leech,’’ “The Hare” and “The Baron,’’ have found duplicates of the Thurston key plan and that they have been paid SIOO,OOO for it by Valquez. Pitts is revealed as “Harelip.” USUAL PRICES: FIVE AND TEN CENTS.
