COLISEUM. ,If you go along Broadway, and Bee a couple persons whispering suspiciously together In seme corner, you can rest assured that they are trying to solve the Paul Wilstach mystery, "What Happened at 22" which has mystified Broadway with its uncanny mystery. So interesting has this strange etory become that the World Film Corporation has had it filmed in five extraordinary reels by the Frohman Amusement Company under the direction of George Irving, with Frances Nelson and Arthur Ashley in the leading rcles.' So wonderful ha3 been the finished production that it has been booked for a showing in this city, and is the attraction coming at the Coliseum theatre tonight.

GARDEN AIRDOME BRINGS DOG CIRCUS AS ATTRACTION

"Are you sure that they did, Mr. Hamilton?" The detectivo suddenly leaned forward across his desk, his body tense, his eyes alight with fervid animation. "Are you sure Pennington Lawton ever rerpived that mes"lie must have. According to Mr. Moore, the two men used Mr. Lawton'e private wire, the number of which was known only to a few of his closest intinat.es and which of course was not lictcd." "But someone who knew that the telephone message was coming might readilv have been in Lawton's office f.catcd at his desk, alone, and replied to it in the financier's name. Do you understand, Mr. Hamilton? The note ir.uy be a forgery, the letter may be a lorgcry; that we shall soon know. If it li, and the mcney so obtained from Mcore ha3 been converted to the use of the three confederates whom wo e;npcct to have formed a conspiracy to ruin Mu-s Lawton, then her father's entire fcrtuno might have been seised upon in virtually the same way." Henry Blaine rose and paced back and forth as if almost oblivious of the other's presence. "The mortgage of his was forged we have proved that," he continued. "Why, then, should not every other available security have been stolen in practically the same way?" he continued. "But how would anyone dare? The whole thing is bare-fated," Ramon expostulated. "A man like Mr. Moore could not have been imposed upon by a mere forgery." "But if that note proves to be a forgery, Mr. Hamilton, and the letter ns well we shall have picked up a tangible clue at last. I think I am beginning to see daylight." Late that night in the huge suite of offices of President Mallowe of the Street Railways, a very curious scene took place. The stolid watchman who had been on uneventful duty there for twenty years had made rounds for the last. time. With superb nonchal-

"A dollar for boot silk stockings!" i Helen paused before a window filled

; with hosiery. "Why, I can get those at; t

home for sixty cents." "Probably an American stocking at

that the duty's pretty stiff. You wait here a moment," turning into a cigar store. "That makes me sore! They soak you fifteen cents for a ten-cent cigar." "Oh, dear, this is an attractive place," as they passed a smart-looking restaurant glowing with orange-shaded table lights. "We'll try that for dinner tomorrow. I'll wager it's better and cheaper than the hotel. We passed another place back there we ought to try." Farther on was a leather goods shop with a display of "London Wrist Bags. Very special, $2.79." "We've got to take your mother something. Would one of those do?" "Oh. we'll get her something better than that," carelessly. "Not much down that way," with an appraising glance at the dwindling lights. "Let's try that last cross street that looked like a live one." It was after ten when they got back to the King Edward Hotel. Helen, who had momentarily forgotten her weariness in the allurement of exploring a new city, now realized that she was sick-tired. She fairly dragged herself across the garish marble lobby to the elevator. "Hello, the stuffs not here!" muttered Warren, when he unlocked their door and switched on the lights. "I'd better 'phone down." "Give me the head porter! . . . This is Mr. Curtis 914. How about that trunk and suitcase on the 7:10 from Montreal? I left the checks at the desk. ... Eh, what's that?"

! sharply. . . . "The devil they ! didn't! . . . Why, I checked them j myself at the station they said they'd : get on. . . . What time? Jove, I that's confounded awkward."

"They're not here?" demanded Helen in shrill excitement. "So it seems" curtly. "Didn't get on that train." j

"Oh. Oh. what WILL we do?" des-1 perately. j "Do without," with a shrug. "What !

else can we do? They'll come along)

on the next train, but that won't get in 'till morning." "The suitcase, too! Oh, if you only hadn't checked the suitcase!" "I like that!" savagely. "Who wanted me to check it?" You're so infernally stingy you throw a fit every time I tip a porter." "Oh, Warren, it wasn't that! I only thought it was a day trip, and we wouldn't need it. But we'll never risk checking it again." "Don't worry," grimly. "I'll see to that. Now you ring for the maid, and see if she can fix us with some sleeping togs. I'll go down to a drug store and get a comb and tooth brushes." The maid, a pretty Canadian girl with vivid coloring, answered Helen 'o ring. She would see if she could find something in the linen room aften there was unclaimed laundry. j

Promptly she returned with a nightgown and a suit of bright pink striped pajamas. Concluded Tomorrow. ATTENDS COLLEGE WHILE CAMPING OUT

OXFORD. O., June 26. Frank List, who teaches school near Dayton is combining business with pleasure this summer. With his wife and baby, List is camping on a vacant lot on East Collins street during the twelve weeks' period of summer school at Miami university. He is taking an advanced course in the teachers' college. The family eats and sleeps in a tent, which has been furnished with all the comforts of home.

ough survey of the room. The taller one sank back inadvertently from the drug-stilled body in the chair, then resolutely turned and knelt beside his companion before the safe. He dreaded to think of what discovery might mean. If he, Ramon Hamilton, were to be caught in the act of burglarizing, his career as a ricing young attorney would be at an end. The risk indeed was great, but he had promised Henry Blaine every aid in his power to help the girl he loved. After a minute examination, the operative proceeded to work upon the massive safe door. With the cunnning of a Jimmy Valentine he manipulated the tumblers. Ramon Hamilton, his discomfiture forgotten, watched with breathless interest while the keen, sensitive fingers performed their task. Soon the great doors swung noiselessly back and the manifold compartments within were revealed.

Varying the class of entertainment for the first half of thi3 week, the management of the Airdome will present one of tha strongest vaudeville programs Richmond has had the opportunity of witnessing at popular prices. Headlining the bill is Drake's Dog Circus, one of the largest animal acts on the read, consisting of twenty-six trained dogs and deer. Through a mutual friend Manager Bond learned that the act had three days open time, and Immediately set

the telegraph wires humming, and as a result secured the act for the Airdome, between dates on one of the large vaudeville circuits. Two of the dogs with this act hold the distinction of being the highest leaping hounds in America, and in the large cities their ease and grace in taking the high jumps never fails to bring great outbursts of applause. Other acts on the bill of recognized ability are Billy Wallace, the comedian and the Jug

gling Parrots, making an hqur ana a half of vaudeville such an one sees playing the circuits in the larger cities. 1

HERE'S THE LATEST DOPE ON THE WEATHER SITUATION

Twenty-five spots covered the surface of the sun Friday, local scientists said today. This is the greatest number that have appeared on the surface of "Old Sol" for 100 years. It indicates abnormal weather conditions and probably means an extremely cool summer. The spots do n,ot directly control the weather but their infleunce is electric on the atmosphere and this combined with local conditions determines the weather. ,

great city. She attempted to repair her blunder. Continued. Some hen or hens laid a couple of eggs in the nest of a dove in the pigeon loft of Jacob Seines, of Tittsfield, and the dove hatched them.

FINED FOR CHEERING.

LOGANSPORT, Ind., June 26 Feeling rather hilarious from the effects of some drink other than grape juice, James Burns offered up three cheers for William Jennings Bryan on the street here, and was arrested. He explained he was simply showing his admiration of Bryan.

There was silence for a moment after they sat down on the bench in the little park. Their minds were so full of personal and intimate thoughts that any casual comment would seem trivial. The man Avas the first to speak. "Is your headache better?" he asked gently. "You are pale still, but I do hope the pain is over." "Oh, I am much better," the girl assured him. Then she demanded suddenly: "But how did you know I had a headache?" "Your sister told me when I met her out walking yesterday noon," he replied. Julia started in surprise. "You met Caryl!" she exclaimed. "She did not mention it to me." "Didn't she?" returned the man briefly. Secretly he was musing that there were probably many things Caryl

did not tell her sister. "Then," said Julia, flushing con-1 sciously, "that was why you sent me ! those beautiful roses because you ! knew that I was ill. It was very good j of you, Mr. Delaine." j "How did you suspect I sent them?" j

he asked quickly. "You have other friends besides me." "Indeed I haven't!" the girl protested "at least not like you." Then she stopped confused. "I mean" she stammered "that I know very few people in New York, and those few only slightly. I ought not to say that I have no friends for there are people who are very kind to me. There is our landlady, Mrs. Holloran she's as good as gold to me. And the girls in the store are friendly enough, although I do not know any of them well. In fact, I have made no intimates in New York, and my sister and I are very much alone. Each of us is all the other one has." Her voice trembled slightly, and a question with regard to the man Caryl had met at Delaine's apartment arose to her lips. But before she could summon courage to voice her thought, her companion spoke again. "Any one of the persons you have mentioned might have sent you the roses for which you thank me. Miss Marvin," he reminded her. "Why, then, did you know at once that they came from me?" "Because," she replied frankly, look

ing at him, "my little sister cannot
