Dicky drew a low chair in front of the couch where we sat. “Tell me first, Katie,” he said kind- ly, “why do you think I want to put you in prison? Because of the money? Never mind that. I want to talk to you of something else.” But ‘Katle was hysterically tugging at the neck of her gown. From inside her bodice she took a tiny chamois skin bag, and ripping it open took out a carefully folded bill and handed it to Dicky. “I never spend that money,” she said. “I never mean to steal it. But I had to go away queeck from your flat, and I never, never dare come back, give you the money. After two month, send my cousin to the flat, but he say you move, no know where. Then I think maybe sometime I find out where you live and write a letter to you, send the money. Dicky took the bill and unfolded it curiously. A brown stain ran ir- regularly across one-half of it. “Well, I'll be eternally blessed,” he ejaculated, “if it isn’t the identical bill I gave her! Ten dollar bills were not so plentiful three years ago, and I remember this one distinctly be- cause of the stain. The boys used to say I must have murdered somebody to get it, and that it was stained with blood.” He turned to Katie again. “The money is nothing, Katie. ‘Why did you run away that day? I never have been able to finish that picture since.” Katie’s eyes dropped. flushed. “I shamed to tell,” she murmured. Dicky muttered an oath beneath his breath. “I thought so,” he said slowly, then he spoke sternly: “Never mind being ashamed to tell, Katie. I want the truth. I worked at your portrait that morning, and then I had to go to the studio. When I came back you had gone, bag and baggage, and with the money I gave vou to pay the tailor. I never could finish that picture, and it would have brought me a nice little sum.” ‘What Can It Mean? My brain was whirling by this time. Dicky in a flat with this ignorant Polish girl paying his tailor bills, and posing for portraits, what did it all mean? Where did you go? ed. Katie lifted her head and looked at him proudly. “You know when you left that morning, Mr. Lestaire, he was paint- ing, too? Well, Mr. Graham, 1 always good girl in old country and here. I go to confession. I always keep good. Mr. Lestaire, he kiss me, say bad things to me. He scare me. I afraid if I stay I no be good girl. 8o I run queeck away. I never dare come back. That Mr. Lestaire had one bad man, one devil.” Dicky whistled softly. “So that was it?” he said. “Well that was just about what that pup would do. That was one reason I got out of our housekeeping arrange- ments. He sat too swift a pace for me, and that was going some in those days.” He turned to Katie, smiling. “You see you don't have to be afraid any more. I'm a respectable married man now, and it's perfectly safe for you to work here. Mrs. Graham will take care of you. Run along about your work now, that's a gooad girl.” Katie giggled appreciatively. Her mercurial temperament had already sent her from the depths to the heights, “The dinner all spoiled while T cry ke a fool,” she said. “You ready pretty soon, I serve.” She hastened to the kitchen, and I turnd to Dicky inquiringly. Dicky Explains Tt All “I suppose you think you have gotten into a lunatic asylum, Madge. Of all the queer things that Katie should apply for a job here and that you should take her.” “I didn't know you had ever kept house in a flat before, Dicky.” “It was a very short experience,” he returned, “only three months.

Warner Oland, local man will be seen in one of the prin- cipal roles in the latest William Fox production of “'Sin” in which Thedsa Bara the famous “Vampire woman' plays the leading character. Mr Gland is very well known in this city Laving lived here prior to his entry in the theatrical profession. He was a member of the local Y. M. C. A and always took a leading part in lo- cal theatricals. Mr, Oland has been associated with many dramatic suc- cesses he only having but recently played with Viola Allen. Fox patrons will have an excellent opportunity to see why Mr. Fox engaged Mr Oland for this important part in one of the most important releases of the Fox Film corporation. Tt is of interest to repeat at writing what Emily H. Vaught, York society of Phrenologist and Physiognomist says about Miss Bara: “1 write this with a photograph of Theda Bara before me.

Y. Sun commented as follows: “Search Me,” is worth seeing if only to watch the delightful acting of Mr. Fred Graham as the keen, shrewd, nervous, outspoken lawyer host. As a first-nighter who never misses a play exclaimed in the seat behind us, “Oh, you Grumpy.” The final scene had an original lit- tle twist as the curtain fell. Every- one knows the usual ending: Hero says to heroine, “Come to my arms.” Sometimes he doesn't say it, he just looks it, which is much worse. They clutch as the drop artist in the wings lets the curtain fall pianissimo and all is over. Everyone gives a sigh of relief, grabs for his hat before the picture of prenuptial bliss is yet hid- den from view—not so in ‘“‘Search comedy “Search Me" the hero gives a leap of about twice his height and catches the balustrade of the stair- way landing where the Australian is coyly looking down at him.

Tt follows the Biblical story, dealing with the lives of David and Szul, Jonathan, Goliath and the witch of Endor. The characters are por trayed most cleverly by the players, in spite of the fact that such a pro- duction as this had always been con- sidered almost beyond the possibi ties of stock companies. “The Shep- herd King” starts with David crown- ed king of Israel. The transition of scenery why not come | the simple shepherd boy, who is tak- en from his flock in the fields to De- come the supreme leader of a willing people, depicts scenes in the palace when David first asserts his power furnishes a remarkable climax and is most impressive Next week’s production to be pre- sented the Poli Players will he “Freckles,” the charming creation of Gene Stratton-Porter, originally pro- duced by A. G. Delamater. This is a play that appeals at once to one's sense of humor, but no less to one's sympathies. The production will be popular with Harftord audiences, who have a liking for a baby with plenty of adventure, action, love and heart interest. The curtain | is notable, TWO BIG FEATURES ON KEENEY PROGRAM With the big Vitagraph feature “The Chalice Of Courage” and ‘‘Stol- en Goods” serving as a double head- liner, the show at Keeney's tonight should be one of exceptional merit and the “Standing Room Only” sign should be in evidence early It is a great photo-play bill that the man- agement has arranged and the audi- ence is promised a treat in the silent drama as well as a first class vaudeville entertainment. “The Chalice Of Courage” is Blue Ribboner sent on the circuit as a Big Four feature. It is a re- markable story and the pjcturization is something out of the ordinary. The picture is in six reels. There are big dramatic possibilities in the story jand it is said the screen production takes advantage of them all. In “Stolen Goods,” Blanche Sweet, one of the most popular screen ar- tists in the world, plays a leading role. The fllm has been accorded considerable praise in cities where it has already been shown and the Keeney management expects that it will be a success in New Britain. The Pathe weekly will also be num- bered among the “‘movie’ features to- night. Ina Clair in “A V is promised for Friday and Saturda “The Chalice Of (‘ourage,” will shown again tomorrow. This week's vaudeville show it bet- ter than the average and the vari- ous acts seem to make a favorable impression on the audience. ild Goose Chase” e WOMEN’S AUXILIARIES Mrs. John W.

What Mephistopheles is to ‘aust,’ that precisely, Mrs, Garland in ‘To-day.’” Indeed, if the time of the action were laid in the medie- val instead of the present period, the authors of ‘Today’ might, with great propriety, have called Mrs. Garland ‘Mephistophela.” A dance play by Heinrich Heine bears this name. But that great poet's Mephistophela is too frankly a devil. albeit a beautiful one, to carry much plausibility. She appears and vanishes in the conven- tional brimstone-and-fire fashion, just like her male prototype in Goethe's ‘Faust.’ “But Mrs. Garland in ‘To-day,’ to all intents and purposes, is just a woman of fashion, differing’ from oth- ers of that class by her extraordinary wit and a certain dryness of humor, scarcely surpassed by that of Merphis- topheles in ‘Faust.' “And here Is a point which is the pitfalls which are loyals wives by quite a marvelous coincidence if it equipment, and of not knowing whether the person is aware of the defect and would or would not wish to be informed of it.

To my mind, the man who gave the motorist the North Pole stare would be morally responsible if, when the motorist should withhold a warning in some other case, an ac~ cident should happen.
