"Hypocrites," the daring and orig
inal film drama extraordinary, which
was shown az the Bonita yesterday 70
record breaking crowds, win be
shown again today, this being the
last day Of its exhibition
By far the majority Of the people
who have seen the picture were deep

Biography. the fine acting, and II any
one was disappointed il could be only
those who had expected something
vulgar. Although the picture shows
the frailties Of human character 1t Is
anything bat vulgar, and the appear
ance Of the spirit Of truth, unclothed,
Is handled IN such delicate manner
that only those who are most given
to hypocrisy may dare 70 offer any
criticism on that feature.
The play opens with the legend Of
Gabriel. an ascetic monk, who per-
fects an image Of truth, = nude wo-

can look upon Truth unilinchingly,

This legend forms the prologue of
the play in which we see Gabriel as q
minister in the pulpit Of a present

hypocrisy. He Is shocked 70 find how

est OF suffrage legislation now before
Congress, and to invite him 20 address
the Maine State convention OF the Con-
sressional Union for Woman Suffrage to
be held 10 Portland Sept. 2.
Mr. Peters gave them assurance OF his

q, that time there were not enough women
in the State who expressed desire for it..

dress the convention in Portland because
