columbia-.The Mysteriou. Burslar.'

CoIumbia-"Thc Mysterious Burglar
In the mysterious Burglar" written by
Joseph Lebrandt and presented at the
Columbia Theatre this week, the patrons
and admirers of that theatre have both
a vaudeville and melodramatic show. The
author has weaved together the plot in so
good a fashion that the vaudeville special
ties which are in~terspersed do not seem
inconsistent
The story deals with james Leighton,
who. with Harvey Pearson, has gone to
try his luck in the Kloudike gold regions,
Leighton strikes q large mine, and to
prove his friendship for Pearson he offers
him 4 part. Harvey, who has a villainous
strain in his system. wants the whole
mine. During a storm he strikes Leighton
on the head and throws him into the river.
after stealing the necessary papers. Leigh
ton is rescued by some kind native, and
becomes blind from the blow. Harvey in
the meantime had returned home and told
the news Of Leighton's death and his ill
taken fortune. He takes care of Leigh
| tons daughter Lillian, and afterwards de-
clares his love for her. Lillian returns his
friendship, but says she cannot marry
him.
While this is going on Leighton sud
denly appears, but no one with the excep-
ton of Harvey recognizes him. Harvey
then tries to kill him, and also tries by
force to marry Lillian. Here Is given Burt
King, who portrays Daniel Moffett, the
mysterious burglar" the opportunity to
tangle up the villains plans and bring him
to justice. MI, Kings impersonation of this
character is good, and the way he robbed
the safe In which Harvey Pearson keeps
the stolen papers is most impressive. After
Pearson has been brought properly to
time Leighton undergoee an operation and
has his sight restored, and the mysterious
burglar who has brought all this about
marries Lillian.
One of the largest casts seen on the
Columbia stage is busy there this week, in
all more than thirty people participating.
Those who were most conspicuous were
Burt King, Romano Fielding, Paul An
derson and Adele Lane,
