One evening late in June, 1880, Miss
Grayman had retired to her room on

about to begin her toilet for the night
with the aid of her maid, Susan Jack

directed Susan to open the lattice. The
girl threw the window wide open, ex.

cat leap in. .
But instead of the cat a man stepped
inside.
He was instantly followed by a COM

could utter the scream that was upon
their lips they were seized and gag

COMING OF COLUMBUS.

The spirit of Columbus lives in mo- tion pictures. The tSelig Polyscope company has given to the public a pictorial presentation of one of the worlds important historical events The accomplishment of such vizuai- ization is a most worthy achievement, an undertaking that was carried through hy William N Selig and only made possible after an outlay of $50.- 900, and three years of labor
 The film Is ia three reels and IS entitled "The Coming of Columbus" "
 In the preparation of this great sub feet, MT. Selig has followed only such accounts as were left by Columbus himself. Duplicates of the three ves- sels in which Columbus and his com panions sailed were used. These three caravels are the identical ones that were presented by the Spanish nation to the American people. Mr. Selis has made these three vessels seaworthy and fitted them with sails in couterpart of the originals. The costuming is historically correct. Even the log book is the one Colum- bus himself had used
 "The Coming of Columbus was viewed by the pope and many car dinals and they expressed their great admiration of this remarkable pho topiay. commenting it not only for its historical accuracy but also fer its photographic perfection.
 This great subject has been se- cured for limited period by the New Central theater and will receive it's first presentation at the above house on Tuesday, June 25.s
