Damaged Goods"

The Mutual Film version of the
well-known story of Brieux, fea-
turing Richard Bennett is free from
the faint which inheres in most Of
the "sex problem plays" 1t does
not parade evil in order that good
may come Of it, it does not linger
over the horrid and morbid to tit
illate, perverted tastes under the
pretense of preaching great moral
lesson. There is distinct and
powerful dramatic element in the
stcsss,,s a va r-;;st;on Of the tragic idea
that consequences are IMPLYING,
that the viii and che virtue Of man
or woman are assailable on thous-
and points and that few of us will
emerge scathless from the conflict
with temptation. Damaged Goods"
as treated by the Mutual is not a
problem play catering to the NOR
bid but a genuine tragedy. AS such
it surely is entitled to take its place
in the film literature Of the day.
This great play play viii be seen at The
Tabb Thursday night.

TAKE UP SMALL HAT
NEW YORK WOMEN ENTHUsIAs.
rIcALLY ADOPT STYLE.
Lines Of French Costume still Form
. Model That Is Accepted as the
Models Really conven-
lent Type.

The women in New York are
adopting the tiny hat with enthusi
asm, probably because they realize
that II may be their last chance to
get the good out of 1t. 1t, too, is un.
usually unbecoming. Unless there is
exactly the right set of features be-
meath II, this tip-tilted hat with its
foolish little brim is exceedingly
trying. 1t does not need a beauty to
wear II; few fashions have been de-
signed with that asset in view. It
needs that quality more difficult than
mere beauty: indisputable style. This
asset is the fetish of our women, not
loneliness. All the beauty in the
world today only receives the tribute
of this remark: how lovely she would
be If she knew how to wear her
clothesl
1t would seem as though that we'll
known model from France that came
over last spring, with straight front
and back and slightly curved sides,
Is to be the chosen one for early
autumn wear. IL is featured by many
of the best houses over here, made
of silk and of serge, combined with
satin. The lines from shoulder to
hips are quite straight, chemise-like,
with the sides either belted or curved
to outline the figure
They are usually called redingote
gowns, because they suggest the new
redingote tunic that Cheruit Is put
ting out this summer. The one-piece
frock that carries out the same eff
feet of an unbroken line from Shout
der to heel is better than a two-piece
suit, which gives more material to be
a burden to the figure.
These belted tunics, as the dress
makers often called them, were Of
fered in vain to the majority of our
women last March and April, but
they were looked at askance as be-
ing too unconventional. Now they
have become the chief stock OF some
of the houses that make a practice
of dressing the woman who wants
to be in the swing of popular fash
ION They are the most convenient
type of gown that one can wear. They
do not confine the figure at any spot,
and cover the surplus of flesh that
may give too much of a curve to the
figure for agreement with the modern
standard.
The majority are of dark blue and
many have an acceptable touch Of
scarlet. either through embroidery or
worked buttonholes, through which is
ruuzthe ,lacing of ribbon that holds
the gown together down the front or
back This omission Of hook and eyes
or buttons and the substitution of rib
bon or silk cord run through promi-
ncnt -bu.tonholss heavily ornamented
with q colored silk Is accepted on all
sides.

that swung gracefully away from the

with white satin ribbon.

Mineola, L. l., July 6:-By CASH
ing his wrist with lead pencil Frank
Holt, who tried to assassinate J. P.
Morgan, attempted to take his own
life during the night in Mineola
Jail. Only the prompt action of a
turnkey prevented his attempt.
A doctor was hurriedly summoned
and the wound sewed up. Holt lost
considerable blood but it was stated
this morning he was in no danger.
The turnkey made it a practice to
watch Holt at intervals in the night
Soon after midnight when he looked
at the prisoner he noticed blood
trickling down his clothes He ex-
amined him at once and found blood
was pouring out cash in his wrist
The physician was summoned at
once He sewed up the wound The
turnkey found bloody pencil on the
floor of the cell. 1t was the one that
Holt had been writing letters with
Efforts were to be made to identify
Holt as Professor Erich Muenter, the
former Harvard professor wanted in

has been unable to eat anything but
orange juice and the whites of eggs.

TEUTON DRIVE PIERCES RUSSIAN
LINE; AGAIN THREATEN WARSAW
ROBBERS ACTIVE IN
CITY OVER HOLIDAY
Clothing Store of J. Christ Jr.
is Robbed of About $500
Other Places Broken Into.

Thieves took advantage of oppor-
tunity to ply their operations
through the holiday, and they be-
came exceptionally active during the
past two days. The clothing store
of J. Christ, Jr., at 157 Smith street
was entered, probably during the
night and according to the report
to the police, robbed of 5000 in cash
and a suit of clothes. There was
a series of smaller robberies extend
ing back to Friday night, when the
dental offices of Bradford & Bedell
at 100 Smith street, were entered
and robbed of SIS worth Of gold
bridge work and two safety razors.
The Christ robbery is the biggest
reported thus far. 1t Is claimed
that the burglars jimmied rear
window, as they did in a majority
of the other cases, and that they
later jimmied the safe. Cash to the
amount of 5000 is claimed to have
been stolen from the safe. The po-
lice are informed that the burglar
changed a suit of clothes, discard
ing his own, leaving it in the store
and donning a new one.
Hard Luck Incident.
I On. Or. Bradford has been undergoing
a series of hard luck" incidents of
late. He started off several days ago
by narrowly escaping with his life
and car, when he wGs forced to run
his machince into a sana bank to get
out of the path OF speederN on the
Old Bridge road, about three mife5
outside of South Amboy. On Fri
day night his dental Office was rob-
bed and last night he either lost or
had his pocket picked of wallet
containing 500 and his driving and
automobile licenses.
Some change and few odds and
ends were taken from the plumbing
shop of J. Walter Dorsey in King
street, either Sunday or last night
The EVENING NEWS building,
which is just west of the Dorsey
shop, was also entered, through the
about the same time. Nothing ap-
pears to have been taken, but
things were disturbed.
Public Library Entered.
The public library building in JEFF
ferson street was entered, probably
Sunday night. The cash drawer was
forced open. AS it was empty and an
attempt to force open the safe
proved futile, 1t appears that moth
ing was taken. 1t is believed that
entrance was made through the new
ly constructed part in the front.
Arthur D. Garben, of 1875 Hall
avenue, reported to the police yes
terday morning that someone had
jimmied the back door of his drug
store, either Sunday night or early
yesterday morning. About 81 in
change, gathered up from three
places in the store, was taken.
