COLONIAL THEATRE.
The Runaway Freight, Sensational
 Two Reel kaIem Feature.

The Ka1en cast, as usual. will pre- sent an altogether different story at the Colonial theatre today, telling a most astounding feat accomplished by the fearless youth William Brunton. The story is entitled The Runaway Freight, and in it Brunton hears of a detached freight car that is running backwards down the big grade and unless it is stopped it will dash into the fast mail train about due. In his customary heroic manner he mounts a ear standing on the siding and when the bounding car comes along he makes 8 sensational leap for it and. landing on the top of it. he creeps to the brakes and brings the car to standstill just in time to avert a. col Iision with the fast train. It is a dar- ing stunt, but makes an exceedingly thrilling picture. Besides this there is the Marvellous Pathe Weekly, the big newspicture, showing the search for the missing Mona Lisa in Florence, Italy: A Love of '64, Lubin; Two Up 6 Tree, comedy, and other fine films. Pictures change again tomorrow.

POETRY
WEAVER OF sHRouDs.

 She sits among the tangled briars and Wet with the fog yet golden with the weaving. a shroud of red and brown and yellow.
 F'iimy and wondrous. Sometimes a rain of leaves comes huttering downwards, Kissing her hair. her lips, her busfed fingers Sometimes the river takes them, and they shiyer
 Meshed in the rushes. All the long day she dallies with her weaving, Choosing her colors, changefu1 and contrasted; Through the dim lanes there comes sound Of singing,
 Wistfu1 and dreamlike. Hath she no thought of question ant foreboding- Nothing of fear when chilling rainfall When the swift winds come ruthless to unravel
 All she hath woven? All she hath schemed of beauty for her Berries and travellers joy and purple Gold of the gorses. scarlet of the brambles-
 Tossed to the spoilersi Arthur L. Salman, in Pail Mall Gazette.
