audience immensely was Alma 5

"Alma's champion is a satisfying
melodramatir story with no special
idea. The situation is this: Alma

distrust is indicated by his actions,

who helped her, and kept her guard

tive engineer. we know him to be the
son Of the roads president, learning
the business. She later invites him to
a dance, her guardian also is invited.
They return to the ballroom and there,
in scene that is in itself as pretty
as any thing that the Nitagraph COM
parry has turned out in many a day,
she learns that her champion is the
president son. The scene in the first
act where she hides from her pursuing
guardian at the railroad station is also
hishly cnmmCndable. Its photographs
are very pretty. j. tells d speedy, clear
story. The audience seemed to like it
Joseph McGinty's songs. The Chick

with the audience.
