That Pact is life itself. The literary case of Frankenstein, ated a monster, is of course enstein, it must be remem- bered, was the man who made the monster and not the munsm somebody made. The idea of creating human life is centuries 6ld. But the Fran- kenstein légend in lteraturé is only 100 years old. Written By Shelly’s Wife “Frankenstein” was written by Mrs. Mary Wollstonecroft Shelley, wife of the well-known British poet. It was writtén in a cottage on the shores of Lake Como in a compe- tition with her own husband and two of his friends. The competi- tion was to produce the most un- usual story. The others all give Mrs. Shelley the palm, and for one hundred years there has been no story as unusual as “Fran- kenstein,” Published in Every Language In book form ‘Frankenstein” {has been published in every lan- guage and is-issued in a tremen- dous number of editions. Coming down to more pertinent facts to the theatre-goer in con- nection with the presentation of “Frankenstein” at the Capitol thea- itré tomorrow might, Colin Clive plays Frankenstein, who created the monster; Boris Karloff plays the monster, Mae Clark plays the fi- ancee of Dr. Frankenstein, and John Boles plays the other man in Mae Clarke's life. 500 PASSENGERS : FORCED TO FLEE FLAMES ON SHIP Abandon Sgner when Fire Is Discovered Aboard Craft ADED, Arabia, May 16.—8Six hun- dred passengers abandoned the French steamer Georges Phillipar, '|five miles from Cape Guarda Ful when the vessel was discovered to Be afirc.
