And the handwriting, unlike the usual, beautiful firm chirography of my father, was irregular, as if the hand that penned it had trembled as it ‘wrote. “Some Grave Danger,” “My darling daughter,” the letter began. “I have hesitated a long time be- wish to alarm you. But things have come %o such & pass with me lately that I see I shall have to take pre- cautions or else I shall become of the great army whose marked ‘unknown.’ “You must be brave, my dear 6ne, when I tell you that I belleve I am in such grave danger it is most uncer- tain whether I shall ever see you again or not. I have worked for many years down here, and have had many escapes, but never before have I feit the sinister menace that seems to surround me. It is a new influence, too, one that I belfeve to be directed against myself personally, instead of against my work. I feel its invisible meshes slowly closing around me, and in the averted faces and altered demeanor of the native officials who have been associated with me so long I read a distrust that can only have its roots in some underground, personally conducted campaign against me. In plainer words, I belleve these native associates of mine are being made to believe that I am a traitor to them, and if they finally make up their minds to that faot, my passing will be inevitaBle. I shall simply disappear, and you will never know what has become of me. “With this possibility staring me in the face, there are things that I must have done quickly.

I am not boast- ing when I say that things hang upon the suocess or fallure of my work here which would astound and over- whelm you if you knew of them. But one thing I wish to say to you now, something which I have divined your delicate sense of honor would prize: “My child, there is nothing in the least dishonorable about'the work in which your father has been engaged all’ his life.

Lyle La Pine and Flo Emory appear in a very pleasing number, in- cluding an original “rube” act. Paul Cunningham and Florence Bennett have a fascinating act which they call “Songland.” The organization this season is larger than a year ago, and the settings are new and fetching. So are the costumes. Latest song hits and plenty of vatdoville during the action of the show helps make the Fred Irwin’s ‘‘Majestics” one of the best attractions of the season at the Grand. Next week the Grand offers Dave Marion, the famous “Snuffy,” «in a brand new production. e e e e L e e PRINCESS EFFECT IS WITH US STILL A COAT DRESS. Almost tailored in its effect of trig- ness is this black satin afternoon frock fashioned with a monk’s collar and cuff and belted with girdle of the frabric. Deep stitchery and ball buttons serve as the only trimming. ENID BENNETT STARS IN “THE GIRL GLORY” Enid Bennett's new starring vehicle is “The Girl, Glory,” a Triangle play produced under the supervision of Thomas H. Ince which will be shown at the Liyceum theater today and Sat- urday. It was written by C. Gard- | ner Sullivan. In “The Girl, Glory,” Enid Ben- nett appears as Glory Wharton, the granddaughter of an 6ld civil war veteran, Jed Wharton. Jed was a veteran who had fought at Vicksburg. and, like all old gentlemen, he is a little tiresome at times when he but- tonholes every one within reach to tell him of the .different battles in which he hag served. He has a fine taste for old bourbon and is wont to celebrate on inauspicious occasions. This is the only cloud in Glory’s life, and she determines to wipe out the evil that has mastered him. In this dilemma she secks the aid of her best adviser, the young minis- ter of the village. They decide that if the old man is unable to get the llquor he will do without it. How she accomplishes her determination forms the dramatic episodes that go to make up this drama. Among those supporting Miss Ben- nett are Walt Whitman, Margery Bennett, J. P. Lockney, William War- ters and Darrell Foss. KITTY GORDEN IS FOX ATTRACTION Another big week-end show opens at Fox's this afternoon, with that world-famous American Beauty, Kitty Gordon, starring in the latest Brady- made World production. “The Be- loved ‘Adverturess.” Miss Gardon does not need the splendid reputation that she made for herself on the legitimate stage, for since her rccent advent to the picture field, she has more than doubled her great popularity as an un- usually capable emotional actress. Her role in “The Beloved Adventuress’ is an unusual one, dealing with the mag- nificent efforts of an immoral woman ta keep secreet from her younger and unsophisticated. sister the kind of a life she has led, and to prevent her from straving from the straight and narrow path. She might have suc- ceeded without difficulty, had her lover not tired of her, and taken a faancy to her sister. There are some of the most intense dramatic situations concelvable in the picture, and the conclusion comes as a complete sur- prise. “The Danger Signal” is the title of the strangest and most exciting episode that has yet been shown of “The Fatal Ring.” In this chapter which is also on today’s program, Pearl, by supreme effort and daring, in which she actually releases her enemy, Carslake, from prison, finally secures possession of the Violet Diamond, set- ting and all. But she gets herself into the worst scrape af her career. A rollicking Vitagraph comedy, “Flat- heads and Flivvers,” together with a single reel subject, ‘“Her Peignor,” will lend the laughs to the bill, and the most recent issue of the Pathe News brings the latest events of the world at large before our eyes in a graphic manner.

Molly and the Cynic were talking about a young man who has recently bought a new car. “And what do you suppose”, said Molly, “‘he told me the other night when he took me out that he was be- ginning to get tired of it. And he's only had it two months. I can’t un- derstand it.” “What were you saylng to him?” sald the Cynio. “Why- 1 don’t know,” “let me see—"" I “Weren't you telling him how crazy bhe was over it or something like that?” She Said He Loved it Iike a Baby. “Why yes,” sald Molly, “how did you know? I was telling him that he loved it like a baby, the way - he washes it and takes care of it and al- most pets it—but how did you know ?" “Oh, I guessed,” sald the Cynic. “I knew you said something that em- barrassed him and he didn’t know how to turn it off and said that in a hurry. Tired of it, your grandmother! Why he fairly lives in it. But that's the way people do when they don't know just what to answer—they say things they don’t have any idea = of meaning. I've learned to chLarge up a lot of the foolish and out-of-charac- ter things people say to sheer ner- vousness."” Do you like the Cynic's diagnosis of the case? I was much impressed with it. A Key to a Lot of Queer Things. It's & key that unlocks the mean- ing of a lot of queer things people said Molly say. S And I know it's a true key because I know that is what I often do my- self—say things I don’t mean at all,— flat things, unworthw things, childish things, meaningless things because I am embarrassed or nervous and try to answer in a hurry. That's the thing that causes all the trouble-——letting yourself get ' nervous and embarrassed and feeling you've got to speak up quickly. I don’t know any better habit than that of de- liberate speech. Just Keep Yourself Stlj. ‘When you don’'t know just what to say, take hold of yourself, and keep still until you do know, till you have decided what you want to say and seleoted the words to express it in. When you haven't anything at all you want to say—just say nothing at all. Smile, laugh (if you can laugh gracefully, otherwise don’t) look wise. Look as if you cculd say most ifter- esting things if you cared to speak. ‘When people are sparing of their words their words are apt to get a disproportionate weight. Like any- thing that is scarce, they become thereby more precious, no matter what their intrinsic value. You are always wondering what the person who listens, amiles thoughttul- ly, and speaks in monosyllables, would say if he talked. Take a leaf out of his book. Get people to wondering about you.
