T. Richard’s ‘Supreme Show of the ‘World, has lived her life among the people of the white tops. Her sensa- tinal wire walking act ,declared by critics throughout Europe and Ameri- ca to be the most daring exhibition of its kind, is added proof that hered- ity plays a paramount part in the development of circus performers. Miss Eldridge’s father, Richard tinental rider of his day and her mother, who had been a schood teacher in a small English town had eloped with him and was traveling circus as a wardrobe mis- tress when Rose was born. From she was trained as a wire walker, and when she reached her tenth year she appeared with her father in an act that made all Europe gasp. Six years later her fame had spread to the United States and the European agents of the big circuses here made offers of large sums of money to induce her to cross the At- lantic and exhibit with them. Noth- .ing could induce her to leave Europe until war conditions closed all of the big circuses. The she was booked by R. T. Richard’s who was traveling abread in search of acts for the Su- preme Show of the World. This is positively her first appearance in America. There will be a free street parade starting from the grounds at 10 o’clock in the morning, followed by an afternoon performance of the big show at 2 o’clock and an evening performance at 8 o’clock. . The en- trances will be opened one hour earlier to permit of a visit to the managerie. GUN MAN HART AT LYCEUM TODAY Everybody’s favorite, William S. Hart, will be the attraction at the Lyceum today and tomorrow. To handle a gun, and do so without being melodramatic is an art, and William Excels in this particular line. But this feature is more than a typical Hart picture. It deals with the ar- rogance of a gold miner in the western territory, and is said to be the most elaborately staged western ever at- tempted. There will be another O. Henry story on the same program, which is a feature in itself. A Triangle comedy and the latest Pathe Weekly will com- plete the program. Do not make any appointmems for Monday or Tuesday. Bessie Barris- cale will be seen at the Lyceum in a feature dealing with the “Poor ‘Whites”, entitled ‘“Baubs Blue Ridge.” PATHE SERIAL NEARS CLOSING CHAPTERS The fifteenth episode in the great Pathe serial, “The Neglected Wife,” is scheduled for Keeney’'s tonight and to- morrow. This serial has attracted more attention than any continued film ever shown here. It is drawing large crowds to Keeney's every Fri- day and Saturday. Another good feature for tonight and tomorrow is the Lasky picturiza- tion of the novel, “The Lonesome Chap,” Interpreted by House Peters and a capable company. Included in the list of vaudeville entertainers is Tafcatt, the daring acrobat.

Blackwell has a dual role in the production, and both of the character - he portrays will appeal to all lovers of the unusual. In one of the characters he appears as an east- erner who goes west to make his for- tune. In the other he portrays the casterner’s half brother, a bold bad ‘westerner who holds up trains and relieves men” and women of their watches, coin and jewelry. ‘While pursuing this vocation, the westerner holds up and robs the train on which the easterner’s sweetheart is coming west. As the half brothers look exactly alike, the young girl naturally thinks that the robber is her lover and from this situation ensues a num- ber of original complications which are finally unravelled in a surprising, smashing climax that will lift any audience from the seats in enthusi- astic appreciation. It is a picture of thrilling surprises and splendidly staged. The fifth episode of the most thrill- ing and compelling serial, “The Fatal Ring,” which will also be shown to- day and tomorrow, out-classes any of the previous installments for excite- ment and speed. A funny Vitagraph comedy, and the latest Pathe News will also be on the program. IREVELATIONS By ADELE GARRISON Whose Mpysterious Voice on’ the Telephone? A chill like the grasp of cold fingers clutched my heart when Rabert Sav- arin said solemny there was but one thing he could do for Mrs. Underwood. What he meant, I did not know, did not dare to ask, did not wint to ask. Indeed, I pushed away from me the veriest breath of a suspicion as to his meaning which lay beneath my con- sciousness. It was too terrible for me even to contemplate and I scored my- self roundly for indulging in such a far fetched conclusion. Mr. Savarin himself changed his de- meanor completely after his utterance of his vow, for such was the nature of the solemn words he had sald con- cerning Lillian. “Come,” he said, holding out his hand to help me down from the bridge where I had sat during his recital of his early love for Lilllan Underwood, “you must be nearly frozen. Now, it is your turn to talk about yourself. I have discussed my troubles long enough. “Tell me what most interests you out here?” I saw that any further talk about Lillian would be painful to him, and caught his cue promptly, “Our new home,” I sald enthusios- tically, and then at his puzzler look, “didn’t Dicky tell you that we have bought a new home, but not a new house by any means? As soon as it has been redecorated we're gaing to move. Don't you want to go down and look at it? It isn't so very far from here.” “I shall be charmed,” he said per- functorily, but I saw that his thoughts were elsewhere. With the intuition which Dicky and Lilllan sometimes term clairvoyance I realized that it was not of Lillian he was thinking, but of some subject connected with Dicky | and me, something vitally affecting us, circum- | WATCH OUR l'—ms—[ For Men and Women.

We walked briskly down the road to the house we had finally bought after much discussion and not a little heartburning on my part because of the utter indifference to my wishes concerning the home which Dicky had displayed. Robert Savarin grew en- thusiastically admiring, as I knew he wauld, over the artistic possibilities of the old place, but after a little he fell strangely reticent again, ‘“There’s something about this place ‘that you do not approve,” I challenged at last, provoked by his silence. “It isn’t the place,” he answered. “Then what is it I persisted. “I don’t think you will like my an- swer,” he said with a covert rebuke of my insistence. “I did not mean to speak of it at all, but you seem really to wish my opinion. Tell me, is your purchase irrevocably made?” “Yes. Why?" “Only that in my opinion it is very unwise to buy property just now when We are so near war.” “You really think we shall dragged into it?” “I am sure of it,” he returned with a decision curious in a man so gentle, “‘Sometimes you know a person aut of the world sees things more clearly than do those close to the heart of things. Now this is March, I am sure that inside of a month we too shall be involved in this awful war.” His tone was salemn, and I shivered as there swept over me the full reali- zation of what war would mean to Dicky and to me. That Dicky would go I was certain, and— Katie Has a Message. I feit a sudden rush of anger against the quiet man at my side, I anathe- matized him mentally as a solemn old raven who had frightened me twice during the morning’s outing, once at his vpgue reference ta something he intended to do for Lillian, and now at his prophecy of war coming to our own country, With feminine incon- be sistetncy my real liking for the man swallowed up my childish resentment against his disturbing of my peace. “I am sorry to have troubled yau,” he said, correctly interpreting my silence. “Let us talk of something more cheerful—Mrs. Underwood’s din- ner_tonight, for instance. Tell me about the people who are to be there.” “You and I and Dicky,” I returned promptly and cheerily, for my social conscience smote me with ¢he re- minder that the man was my guest, and that I must hide any resentment I felt toward him, “Mrs, Durkee and her son, Frank Lester, an artist friend of Dicky’s and his wife, Jack Bickett, a cousin of mine, in fact my only rela- tive, and his fiancee, Katherine Son- net, and two other persons whose names I won't know. Lillian said she was to have 12 covers, and I know the names of but nine guests.”” “Twelve covers,” he commented as if the number rather frightened him, and then he scarcely spoke again until we reached = home. Katie met me at the door and as I listened to her rather incoherent message, I heard the insistent ringing of the tele-™ phone. “Oh, Missis Graham, some lady she ring you two, three times, say she have a most important message for Meester Graham. She no would give it to me. I tink dere she is again.” N /) LEADING Main St.« Here's just the outfit; good tone, good motor, and yet so small you can carry it around without a bit of trouble.
