on the market showing photography of
moving objects and reproducing the mo-
lions Of the subjects with life-like fidel-

photography has been most marvellous,
but it remained for Theodore Kramer,
the althor of ''The King of Detectives
to put moving pictures to a hitherto
unknown use--that of rounding the cli-

big scenic production which Sullivan,
Harris and Woods have made of this
piece, there are many sensational feat

the interest of the audience to such a
fervent degree as the climax of the

to fasten the guilt upon the real perpe-
