I countered. “It's worthy of Katle's movie im- agination,” she said slowly, “but T believe that escaped bootlegger just| entered that house.” “I don't know why it's so wild a| notion,” I returned. “They're of the same race, and those people always stand by each other in any trouble, “Ma-mee Coom Ofer."” “Ought we to notify the troopers?” “Oh, I suppose so0,” I said wearily, for I felt that I had had my share of dealing with crimes and criminals in the work I had completed with Lil- Han but a few months before. But, I reflected, there was no obligation upon me save the reporting of my sus- picions. If the people were innocent, no harm would be done by the search, and if they were harboring a danger- ous criminal, they deserved punish- ment. “Well !” Katherine endeavored to eomfort me. “You won't have to wor- ry about it for a few hours, any- way. There's nobody to notify, Is there, until the troopers and the re- doubtable Ticers come back again?" “No,"” I returned, relieved'at the re- prieve from responsibility, and then we waited in silence until the woman we had seen came out of the.house and ran toward us. “Ma-mee coom ofer right avay” she said, and, without further cere- mony, whisked back to the house. “That isn't just according to Hoyle," Katherine observed thought- tully, as we walked back home. “She never asked what you would pay her.” Katherine 1s Ammnsed “She didn’t need to,” T replied with a wry smile. ‘““Her people have this end of the island in a dabor grip which is a perfect thing of its kind.

I answered. ‘We had reached our own steps, and Katherine put a low voiced query: “Are you going to tell Mother Gra- ham what we thought we saw?" *“Not having any desire to install a miniature psychopathlc ward in the house, 1 shall restrain myself,” I an swered. ‘‘Mother Graham would be capable of going over single-handed and routing out the fugitive, But I shall give Jim a warning to look out for a possible flight through our wood- lot, and another to keep the knowl- edge from Katie, “Why don’t you turn Katie loose to, ferret out the bootlegger?” Kather-| ine laughed. “I'd love nothing better than to trail along in her wake as an observer. She's such an inveterate movie fan that she imagines herself a different he-ro-ine or lady de-tek-a- tive every week."” “Did I ever tell you about the time Katie decided to practise for the movies and made herself up according to the directions she found in a book, and the rouge wouldn't come off until Lilllan used a pound or two of lard and cold cream?” “No !" Katherine's voice was filled with gleeful appreciation, and then she chuckled. 'MOTHER OF LARGE FAMILY Recommends Lydia E.

This i{s one of the dramatic inci- dents of the story of Mary Miles Min- ter's last Paramount picture, “The Trail of the Lonesome Pine,” based on the celebrated novel by the late John Fox, Jr., which will be the fes” ture at the Palace theater for three, days, beginning Monday next. An- tonio Moreno, leading man and Er- nest Torrence, noted character actor, are featured in the support. June Tolliver, a mountain lassie, is the central figure of a deadly family foeud in the Cumberland mountain district of Kentucky, John Hale, a coal mining engineer and head of a local law and order organization which has sworn to maintain peace in the district, falls in love with June and has her educated at his own ex- pense. Meanwhile, “Bad" Rufe Tilli- ver, June's uncle, returns from the west in violation of his promise to re- main away, and murders a peace offi- cer, Rufe's arrest and conviction follow, and 'Hale and June ar estranged as a result. The various situations are dramatic and highly thrilling. The supporting cast is quite capable. The Sunday night program at the Palace will offer excellent double fea- ture photoplays, presenting Wanda Hawley in her new production “The Truthful Liar,” a splendid story that holds and fascinates to the very end.’|§ The other photoplay will feature an n th widely read novel “Through the Storm."” With the big photoplay at- traction for the first three days of the wesk there will be a good bill of Keith vaudeville acts that are guar- anteed to please. Saxon and Griffin will entertain with new and original songs and stories; Morrell's Dogs show Intelligence and good training; Mon- tana and his banjo will be well liked as he i3 a Keith headliner, and Darl- ing and Weet will offer a clever sing- ing comedy act. Starting next week Thursday, Jack Holt will be offered in “The Grim Comedian.” CAPITOL PARK, “Carlo’s Comedy Circus,” one of the funniest acts before the public, will be the big free attraction at Capitol Park, Hartford, all next week, Dogs, ponfes, monkeys and two un- rivalled bucking mules are the make- up of the show and there is mirth and laughter in every detail of the big extravaganza. The bucking mules have a world-wide reputation for be- ing the “buckiest’” alive. Lampham's famous Red Hussar Band has won itself into the hearts of all who have heard it. Free con- certs are given every afternoon from 3 o'clock until 5, and every evening from 8 o'clock until 11, The hundreds who enjoy them- selves in the big bathing pool every day tell their own story of the boon it is to sweltering humanity dur- ing the hot days of summer, The fine sandy beach affords a most de- lightful place to loll about and en- joy a pleasant afternoon.
