VALESKA SURATT AT FOX THEATER TODAY Another popular New Britain favor- ite will head the Fox program tonight and tomorrow. when Miss Valeska Suratt will make her bow in her latest and one of the best Fox releases that has been seen in some time, “Wife Number Two.” Although the title is suggestive of certain domestic condi- tions common in certain families, yet the story and setting of the picture are distinctively original. Miss Su- ratt, as usual, appears in many unique creations in the way of cos- tumes, but she does not by any means rely upon clothing to accom- plish most effective dramatic situa- tions. It is by sheer ability that she has made herself one of the most ap- preciated stars in the motion-picture business. Another exciting adventure of the, increasingly-popplar Stinfaree shows an extraordinary episode in the life of this lovable bandit. The Pathe News and many other superior films will also be on the program. GHOST OF OLD MORRO, LYCEUM OFFERING ! In line with th@ir policy of present- ing to the public the best in photo- dramas, Edison has released “The Ghost of Old Moro,” a story of un- usual merit to be shown at the Ly- ceum theater today and Thursday. Mabel Trunnelle plays the stellar role in the characterization of a charm- ing Spanish girl who is being reared in a convent, where her mother in league with smugglers, placed her in order that she should grow up in an atmosphere and environment differ- ent from that which she would re- | celve at her mother's inn. Fate de- creed, however, that she should tread the path that—all others had who were unfortunate enough to fall into her mother’s power. This creates many unusual situations and gives the talented cast opportunities to display their skill.

I couldn’t help but contrast her ap- pearance with that of the outrageously rouged creature with dyed hair and daring flamboyant gowns who used to greet me at her door, the coarse mask she had put over her real self to please the gross ideas of her husband, Harry Underwood. Tonight she was resplendent in a dinner gown of black filmy material, through which gleamed an underdress of Crimson silk. Black always makes any woman'’s neck and shoulders look whiter, and Lillian’s, always beautiful, were more wonderful than eyer rising out of the filmy bodice. Her hair, which Lillian’s menage presented, and was done. high in a quaint fashion that reminded me of old-time pictures, and the effect was enhanced by an | enormous high comb of odd workman- ship, surmounting the soft coil of hair. Long jet ear-rings that must have be- longed to her grandmother depended from her ears, where against her bodice was fastened a cluster of crim- son roses. “Something Has Happened.” Upon almost any other woman the effect of the ornaments and the coiffure would have been grotsque, but Lillian, with her unerring artistic sense, had struck just the right note for her partcular type, and I heard Robert Savarin catch his breath at the picture she made against the back- ground of her wonderful white and crimson living room, into” which she had impetuously drawn us. Even through the excitement under which I was laboring I could not help won- derf.g anew how evn her strong de- termination to ‘“play the game” with e A P P | N~ OF A WIFE Ry ADELE GARRISON i ot Harry Underwood had enabled her to crucify her own artistic instincts for so many vears. A Little Marion, all in fluffy white, with crimson sash and hair ribbons, had hard work to keep her feet and hands still as she stood demurely be- side her mother, while back of her hovered black Betty, a most barbaric crimson turban surmounting her wool- ly head, Waiting to assist us with our wraps. I knew that no one else but Lillian could ever have induced Betty to put on that turban, knew also that not one hostess in a thousand could have conceived or have framed the picture which Yillian’s menage presented, and realized as I looked at Lillian’s flushed cheeks and sparkling eyes that she was enjoying her reward in the spon- taneous admiration which irradiated Robert Savarin’s face, a feeling strong enough to banish for the moment his memory of the menace that had just passed us. Lillian’s triumph lasted for only a moment, however. Then she looked at us searchingly, and with her swift in- tuition divined the truth. “Something has happend!” she said. “You've seen that woman again!” In a few rapid words I told her of my encourter with Mrs. Allis at the station, and of her driving past the door, evidently fixing the number in her memory but a few minutes before. Lillian to the Fore. Lillian consulted a tiny jeweled wrist watch and spoke briskly, with more of the old decision in her voice than I had heard her use since she had met Robert Savarin again. “It’s nearly an hour until the other guests are due, and by that time there'll be no danger of so much as a mouse disturbing us. Now mind you, T don’t believe the woman would dare attempt.anything really serious in a crowded section like this. Out at your place-in the country, Madge, de- cldedly yes. But not here. However, she probably has some maliciously mischievous idea of annoying us in some way, and I don’'t prapose to have even the traditional roseleaf spoil ; party. m“gt:tty}j put the chain on the door and then take Mr. Savarin and . 1:{:, rkee to the guest room upstairs, jlal:dkg: will you také Mrs. Durkee to my own room?

Cooper attraction, has the happy faculty of drawing good sized houses rain or shine. Solly ‘Ward, the principal comedian, ‘is fortunate enough to have a lively, witty book provided for him this season and using Harry Colemanh as a foil he puts over some clever lines. Ester Delaur is the French prima donna. Back again in the cast is Stella Wood, the little soubrette who moves around, the stage with mar- velous agility. She can sing, too. Hunter, Chick and Hunter, the “Har- mony Singers” provide an exception- treat for music lovers. “SOAP BOX” ORATORS GO. No More Seditious Speeches at Street Corners. New York, Aug. 15.—The police today were instructed to pursue 2 more vigorous policy in dealing with the street corner speakers who mako attacks either upon the United States or her Allies, and to make arrests for utterances that are seditious. Thia announcement was the result of ac- tivities by patriotic organizations fol- lowing the arrest recently of Cleve- land Moffett, the author. Mr. Mof- fett was arrested when he insisted on stopping a meeting at which a soap box orator was making remarks against America’s allies. The American Defense soclety, of which Mr. Moffett is a member, to- day issued a statement saying that irresponsible persons of German sym- pathies were permitted to make speeches in the street advocating pol- loles directly opposed to the safety of the nation and that tolerance of pro- Germans and pacifist fanatios in gen- cral was intolerable and foolhardy with the country at war, and invited all persons who might have informa- | tien regarding such meetings to noti- Substitutes Cost YOU Same Price fy the office of the seciety that suit- able action might be taken. | ANARCHISTS TRIED T0 MURDER ROOT Destroged Bridge and Sent Burd- ing Coaches After His Train Chicago, Aug. 15.—A startling story of the two attempts by Russian anar- chists to wreck the special train car- rying the Root commission from Pet- rograd to Vladivpstok has reached Chicago. Mrs. Gregory Mason, wife of the correspondent of the Outlook in Rus- sia, related to the Japan Advertiser of Tokio, Japan, how the anarchists burned a wooden bridge at Viatka, three days east of Petrograd, and when they found that they had failed to wreck the train set fire to passen- ger coaches and rolled them in the direction of the American special, in which the leader, Elihu Root, was ly- ing asleep. This attempt was frus- trated. Mrs. Mason relates in the Adwver- tiser, copies of which have just ar- rived in Chicago, that shortly after she reached Viatka on the Siberian express, where she found the Root party halted by the wrecked bridge, some one began crying that the Bol- shevikl (anarchists) had set the'town on fire. “Waiters and trainmen from our train and from the Root train carried buckets of water from these trains and from the station in an attempt to put out the blaze,” she continued. “Their efforts were pathetically futile. The fire soon spread to three passen- ger trains that were on the tracks near the warehouse and to a number of scattered freight cars; “Ostensibly trying to remove these cars from danger, but really in the at- tempt to carry the fire to the Root train, a number of soldiers and work- men pushed several of these blazing coaches down the tracks just to the windward of the Root train, so that the high breeze drove the flames di- rectly against the cars carrying the American mission. Only the prompt action of the engineer Root’s train saved it trophe. He backed the train away i-. 1 the blazing grs and did not stop until he was five miles out country, “The explanation which was given us by the rallroad officials at the sta- tlon and by the militla of Viatka was that the fire had been started by the same miscreats who had burned the bridge. It seems that parallel to the wooden bridge which was destroyed wam a stone bridge just being com- pleted. “When the anarchists learned that work on this had been so speeded up that it would provide an avenue of escape for the Americans within a few hours they deocided on a last des- the of Senator from catas- in the perate measure and set fire to stockhouse, “At length, a few heurs after this this stone bridge was The conducter of the o seesond fire, ready for use. Root train ordered his engineer X proceed and our train was 4bout to follow when there was a protest fron: the soldiers of several troop trains which had pulled into Viatka on their way to their homes in Siberia, hav- ing had enough of war. “They said that it was an outrage to suggest that trains carrying Amer- ican capitalists and Russian ‘Bour- geois’ should precede them, the real lords of Russia, so the American mission was forced to submit to an- other considerable delay while the Russian army proceeded on. “Of course the noise and excite- ment which had ensued when the warehouse fire was discovered had awakened Mr. Root. Perhaps the most interesting of the impressions of anarchical Russia which he will have to report to President Wilson were gained Auring those exciting moments whén the Russians he had had come to aid were trying to burn him alive.” MILITARY COAT FOR A HIGH SCHOOL GIRL BOYISH EFFECT.
