by an explosion of small amount of
gasoline which occurred with such

through the door.

..stop Thier. Tomorrow Night

Much interest is being manifested
in the forthcoming presentation of
stop Thief" a new Cohan G. Harris
production to be seen at the Oregon
theater tomorrow night.
stop Thief is farce in three acts
from the pen Of Carlyle Moore. The
plot Of the piece deals with klepto-
mania. A kleptomaniac is defined
by Webster as a wealthy person of
extraordinary absent minded tenden-
cles and morbid impulses. The mania
usually demonstrates its presence by
the victim of it being discovered in
making a collection of valuable arti-
cles that do not belong to him. When
the poor man is caught doing the
same thing, he is arrested as an or
binary thief. That is a detail, how
ever
There are two kleptomaniacs and q
real crook in stop thief" one OF
the kleptomaniacs is a millionaire and
the other is his prospective son-in-
law. The bride-to-be knows that
her father is afflicted with the ni7.
Mo to steal, but she is ignorant OF
the fact that her future husband is
also.
Into this household a real thief
is smuggled by a new maid. and the
plot thus tangled in the first act
calls for the presence of a battalion
of policemen who appear in the sec.
ond act. where the thrills begin. one
valuable article after another disap'
pears in the most mysterious manner
and in the search of the culprits many
funny situations are evolved
