Although almost unannounced, one of the most successful motion pictures at the Breed theater this week is the one entitled Oliver Twist, and the fas cinafion of it's own story is enhanced by the highly meritorious acting of iFlita Proctor sOtis, whose charming work on several occasions at the the ater here gives it quite a local attrac- ton She plays, as she has in the real drama here, the part of Nancy, Sykes, and, while the character is not wholly eommendable 1t has its good points, which Miss Otis loses no opportunity to bring out
 The big scenic picture, Priest of the Wilderness, created quite a sensation by the mingled joys and sorrows, while the deep religious feeling permeated every scene, and the persistent efforts of Father Joques are rewarded with success only after strenuous and hero- ic action. Her First Biscuit Is another familiar Jones picture and leaves the house in an uproar, the side-splitting episodes following each other in rapid fire succession.

FOUND BY HARTFORD LAWYER.
California Man Will Come Into Pos
 session of Snug Sum,

John J. Dwyer of Hartford has filed an application in the probate court in Fitchburg, Mass asking that the estate of Mrs. Jennie Miller. late of that city, be distributed. Mrs. Miller died in Fitchburg about a year ago. leaving an estate which was valued at about s25,00O. At the. time of her death 1t was thought that she left no relatixes. A. z. Goodfellow was ap- pointed administrator of the estate and although he advertised for relatives, none appeared MT. Dwyer started a search on his own account. He learned that Mrs Miller had a brother, Will liam Venna, who went to California many years ago, but who, it was re- ported, had died MT. Dwyer, how ever, advertised for him or his heirs, and he succeeded in locating Venna in Burlingame a suburb of San Frarl- cisco. Vienna will soon come east to take possession of the estate. The hearing on Mir. Dwyer's motion will come before the probate court next month.
