Happen to any girl who goes to a Chinatown resort sight seeing with a man acquaintance who is not to be trusted, is given in "A Voice in the Dark,", a Goldwyn picture, which is showing at the Murray theatre. A striking portrayal of a police raid and the manner in which the innocent . are often hustled off to jail with the guilty is contained in the picture. It is a startling murder-mystery

play, directed by the noted Frank .

Lloyd, and the solution does not reveal itself until the very last few feet, of the film. MURRETTE History has recorded a number of men under the heading, "Great Lovers." and fiction tells of various such, J but none of these achieved the phrase- ; onym, "The Great Lover," the title of : the Goldwyn picture, which is now showing at the Murrette theatre. t "The Great Lover" is a super-lover. A lover whose artistry is so perfect, whose gallantry so faultless that even j the fickleness of his nature and the " variety of his loves cannot put him - in ill standing with the fair sex. Like ", Dante, who in his youth loved the fair Beatrice, so Jean Paurel (The . Great Lover) loved Biancar But Fate ' stepped between them in the form of i the intrigue and jealousy of the operatic stage, of which Paurel was a fat mous singer. Then the noted tenor i became . a philander and ; his affairs ; ire not equalled by the greatest of known lovers." 'MURRAY VAUDEVILLE.

Everybody is more or less familiar : with the capabilities of the Parrot as

a talker, but few are aware that the splendidly plumaged Cockatoos and the brilliantly feathered Macaws could ? be trained to perform the incredible feats as witnessed in Lamonts astonishing act which he aptly calls "Birdland." , "Just Music," as offered by Al Ross I and Olga Foss, is a high class, refined : and delightful bit of entertainment. The Capps Family, eight in number t from the toddler of three, to the proud ; mother and father, are a happy lot who have something in the way of f ntertainment that is out of the beaten path, a novelty in laughter, song and dance that scintillate with the spirit of youth.

at the Richmond theatre, niich opens Sunday. It is one of the year's best pictures, worthy of tha patronage of the most discriminating screen fan. A drama of the northwoods, it throbs with the magic and beauty of the great outdoors. The story is big In its emotional appeal, gripping in its sincerity and humanness. The love theme that run3 thruogh it offers the most exquisite scenes that have been shown on the screen in a long time. Monroe Salisbury is the star and a better choice for the role of Eric

Straive, the Barbarian, could not have been made. He brings to the character sympathy and understanding. He makes Straive stand out as a man among men, a distinctive figure, dominant, powerful. Jane Novak gives

admirable interpretation to her rolej

as the millionaire's daughter with whom Straive falls in love and she bears out the general testimony that her eyes have no rival in all screen-dom.

A look of surprise passed over his

face, and at the first quiver of his eyebrows my heart turned to lead in my breast. "You did not write this?" I said, pulling the letter from my pocket. "There is no sick Englishwoman in the hotel?" "Certainly not!" he cried. "But it has the hotel mark upon it! Ha, it must have been written by that tall Englishman who came in after you had gone. He said " But I waited for none of the landlord's explanations. In a tingle of fear I was already running down the village street, and making for the path which I had so lately descended. It had taken me an hour to come down. For all my efforts two more had passed before I found myself at the fall of Reichenbach once more. There was Holmes's Alpine-stock still leaning against the rock by which I had left him. But there was no sign of him, and it was in vain that I shouted. My only answer was my own voice reverberating in a rolling echo from the

cliffs around me. It was the sight of that Alpine-stock which turned me cold and sick. He

j had not gone to Rosenlaui, then. He

had remained on that three-foot path, with sheer wall on one side and sheer drop on the other, until his enemy had overtaken him. The young Swiss had gone too. He had probably been in the pay of Moriarty, and had left the two men together. And then what had happened? Who was to tell us what had happened then?

I stood for a minute or two to col-,

lect myself, for I was dazed with the horror of the thing. Then I began to think of Holmes's own methods and to try to practise them in reading this tragedy. It was, alas, only too easy to do. During our conversation we had not gone to the end of the path, and the Alpine-stock marked the place where we had stood. The blackish soil is kept forever soft by the incessant drift of spray, and a bird would leave its tread upon it. Two lines of

returning. A few yards from the end the soil was all ploughed up into a patch of mud, and the brambles and ferns which fringed the chasm were torn and bedraggled. I lay upon my face and peered over with the spray spouting up all around me. It had darkened since I left, and now I coulo only see here and there the glistening of moisture upon the black walls, and far away down at the end of the shaft the gleam of the broken water. I shouted; but only that same half-hu

man cry of the fall was borne back'

to my ears. , But it was destined that I should after all have a last word of greeting from my friend and comrade. I have said that his Alpine-stock had been left leaning against a rock which jutted on to the path. From the top of this bowlder the gleam of something bright caught my eye. and rais

ing my hand, I found that it came from the silver cigarette-case which he used to carry. As I took it up a small square of paper upon which it had lain fluttered down on to the ground. Unfolding it, I found that it consisted of three pages torn from his note-book and addressed to me. It was characteristic of the man that the direction was as precise, and the writing as firm and clear, as though it had been written in his study. j "My dear Watson," it said, "I write these few lines through the courtesy of Mr. Moriarty, who awaits my convenience for the final discussion of,

DINOSAUR SKELETON FOUND BY CANADIAN (From the Toronto Mail and Empire) , Two years ago Prof. W A. Parks, director of the paleontological department of the Royal Ontario museum, spied the ribs of a dinosaur sticking out of a hillside in the Red Deer Valley and headed an expedition to uncover the skeleton. For the last eight months the ancient creature has had the constant attendance of two of the museum staff. They have assembled the bones in their proper order, mounted the head and a section of the fore part of the body, including one of the front legs. The animal now is in a glass case on the top floor of the Royal Ontario museum. As a result that institution now possesses what is perhaps the most perfect head of a "horned dinosaur" so far dicovered. Over four feet in length, it is fitted with one large horn and two small ones with a remarkable frill of bone around the neck. No animal now in . existence is afforded the protection of such a frill. Unfortunately only a portion of the skeleton was recovered, the rear quarters hav

ing disappeared in Nature's "weathering" process. The animal stood about six feet in height and about 14 feet lone. Other types of dinosaur have

1 been unearthed, some of which have

been of very large dimensions. Contrary to the somewhat general impression, bones discovered under such circumstances are not petrified but are exactly as they were when depositel ages ago, according to Dr. Parks. This particular animal is estimated to have lived three million

1 years ago or more.
