One night Mackay becomes intoxicated. Haney sends for him and Grieg slips a package of the bank's money into the cashier's coat. An hour later the shortage is "discovered." To everyone's surprise, Haney forgives Harry and dismisses the charge. Grieg and Haney then plan a big haul. They invite Harry to dinner that evening, get him intoxicated and force him to take the remaining funds in the bank's vaults and place them in a large packing case in an adjoining yard. Ethel, the president's stenographer, Harry's sweetheart, in a peculiar wary learns what is going on, and unnoticed, succeeds in transferring the money to a refuse can nearby. Ethel gets out of the case in time to call the police before she is discovered. The police nab the rascals and hustle them off to jail.

Remarkable Cure of Croup. "Last winter when my little boy had croup I got him a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough remedy. I honestly believe it saved his life," writes Mrs. J. B. Cook, Indiana, Pa.

A Big Man Of the Movies

Scene From "One Day"

CD H?4?T iff

Next Tuesday at the Gennett matinee and night, "One Day," a dramatization by Cecil Spooner of Elinor Glyn's sequel to "Three Weeks" will be presented. The story deals with a romance between "Paul," the young crown prince of Sardalia, and Opal, a young American girl, whom he meets on board a trans-Atlantic liner.

Junglemaster Lyric Offering On Thursday the Lyric offers a thrilling animal story. Did you ever hear of Jorgeburg? No? Shut away in a dark, uncivilized part of Africa, it is not a place where the average tourist would make an effort to visit. Nevertheless, this village and its vicinity is the locale of the present story, "The Junglemaster," a "101 Bison" two-part animal play. Taking their lives in their hands, there are certain men who, every year, go into the deep jungle to hunt down and trap wild beasts with which to replenish the great circuses and menag

eries of the world. It is around these people that the present play swings. The educational value of "The Junglemaster" is equal to its dramatic value and that is saying much. There are more thrills, more dangers faced by the players to . every foot of this film than is evidenced in' the whole realm of animal features. You see the brutes approach the traps. You see them snip the bait and then plunge into the trap, which means life-long captivity. ' You see them floundering In the meshes of the nets, scratching, clawing, biting, roaring and struggling with, every ounce of their mighty strength to free themselves.

Japan's government forests last year yielded $5,360,000 in revenues and consumed $2,327,000 in expenses.

Golden Goose at Murreite

"The Golden Goose" shows at the Murrette Sunday. Little Edith Colby believes in fairies. One day, out of doors, she recites incantations from her fairy book, and Ruth Hart, the daughter of the banker of the settlement, hearing her, decides to play good fairy to the child. She asks the girl her wish, promising to grant it. So Ruth and Tom Colby put their heads together. They paint a goose and some eggs with gold paint, and Edith finds them. The crops on the ranch fail, and banker Hart ejects the Colbys on the advice of his cashier, Paul Goelet. Goelet also tells Mr. Hart that Tom Colby is after Ruth for her money. Tom, his mother and Edith go Into the hills where young Colby searches for gold. They are without food and are obliged to kill the golden goose. In cleaning the bird Mrs. Colby finds in its crop what appears to be grains of gold. Tom goes to the place where the goose had been feeding and makes a rich strike. Meanwhile, Ruth has discovered that Goelet lied to her father about Colby. In revenge the former cashier starts a run on the bank. Tom happens to hear of it, stakes his Golden Goose Mine against the integrity of the bank, and thus averts the disaster. Hart consents to his marriage with Ruth.

TerenceO'Rourke Lyric Offering Saturday, November 14, the Lyric will flash Terence O'Rourke, gentleman adventurer, in which the French Reservists are used. It has remained for the Universal to be the first film company to use Frenchmen, many of them reservists ef the French army, in the staging of a battle scene for motion pictures. Following the breaking out of the European war, great numbers of Frenchmen fro mvarious points along the pacific coast, drifted into California, with the hope of securing admission to the French army and passage to Europe. Quite a few of them were taken and transported east, and on to Europe, as they were members of the reserve classes called to the colors. But many of them were left behind, because they either did not come within the age limit or were naturalized Americans. These men found themselves out of work, stranded, away from home. The plight of these men was called to the attention of Isadore Bernstein, manager of the Universal Pacific Coast studios, and when the time came for staging the big battle scenes in the "O'Rourkke" drama, he utilized them.

"Cabiria" at Murray Tonight Remarkable in every way is the great success of d'Annunzlo's "Cabiria," which will be shown at the Murray tonight. Since its premier in the Knickerbocker theatre. New York, on June 2 last, "Cabiria" has been playing to a greater number of oeoole throughout the United States than any other motion picture ever made. Long before the American presentation word came from Europe of the sensational records being made by "Cabiria" in the leading grand opera houses of Italy, Spain and Germany, and its premier in France was another notable triumph.

STUDIES "SALOMY JANE." The absence of President Walter

Hoff Seely of the Alco Film Corporation from his home nearly every even-: ing worried Mrs. Seely. She found that i

he was spending most of his time in his projection room being deeply interested in the photoplay "Salomy Jane." It had an especial appeal to him because he had spent his boyhood days among the California scenes pictured therein.

MOUNTAIN STUFF." Little boys and girls of the Catskills figured prominently in the "moun-

of them have never seen a railroad. B. A. Rolfe Photo Plays, Inc., and Mr. Jefferson decided to film the Jefferson classic in the most impenetrable parts of the Catskills, many of which jjre associated with the legend of Rip Van Winkle. Some of these scenes are from fifteen to twenty miles distant from a railroad. Hence the ignorance of railroads on the part of the chil-

Today his wealth Is way beyond the million mark, and he earned every cent of it because he made his light shine a little ahead of the others.

the demand is by hurrying to the va-'

David Bispham, the celebrated baritone, who has appeared both in opera and on the concert stage, has gone into the "movies" as the head of a well-known film company. Bispham is possessed of extraordinary histrionic gifts and the fact that, as a singer, his voice is no longer dependable, makes his entrance into this form of theatrics significant.
