Speciality of High
Climbing.

North Clarendon has freak dog
whose specially is climbing. The
highest climb he ever made was 30
feet. Veterinarians and others who
have examined the dogs feet are at
loss to understand how he grips a
tree trunk in climbing.
His nails are like those of the or
binary dog. though possibly trifie
more pointed. and the tieshy pads OF
his feet are perhaps little broader.
So accustomed to height is the dog
that he sleeps in tree branches 20

"CROOKY" FEATURE
 OF KEENEY'S BILL

J. Stuart Blackton and Albert E. Smith determined to produce a farce comedy that would establish a new record. And they succeeded. First or all they engaged Frank Daniels, the greatest comedian of this generatlon' the man who has probably made more people laugh than ony other human being They knew his capaplI1tles and the kind of humor that motion
 pictures had been waiting for. They mad Paul West write the plot especial lv to Frank Daniels measure-to bring out to the limit his inimitable ability. They gave Daniels the cream of Vitigraph support. The result is "CrooEv'' which will be featured at Keeney's theater tonight and tomor- row. "Crooky' is the first departure
 from the stage to the screen of Frank
 Daniels and it is the triumph of hts
 career. He practically makes his
 audiences laugh harder and heartier
 than comedian has ever done for an hour and. half. He is a born picture actor.
 Victor Moore in ''Snobs'' which pleased large audiences yesterday will be shown at the theater for the last time this evening. Pathe's Weekly will also be screened with several first run general films.
 Three sterling vaudeville acts will augment the evenings entertainment Donald and West blackface comedians Wray Sisters, fancy dancers and sing CTS and the Three Millers, artistic jugglers, each are headliners in themselves.

The State Fair at Berlin, Septem- Der IA, 15. 16 and IT, will surpass in entertainment features any fair vet held by the Connecticut State Az ricultural society. This year the fair will be conducted night and day and in arranging the programs special at tention has been given with this inno- vation specially in view. The fire works display will be the finest ever held in the state. The Connecticut Fireworks company has designed spe- cial program for each evening. An other element of the night display will be the electrical decorations on the grounds. Contractors are now wiring the grounds for the fair.
 The special interest in the horse racing program of this year lies in the fact that the first races of the state stake races will be held here. The entries are numerous and many new horses will be seen. The track at Brlin is fast and the turn near the starting wire has been the scene of many thrilling spills

EDGAR ALLEN POE'S
 WORKS, AT FOX'S

The ancient fable of two antagonis- tic spirits imprisoned in one body, equally powerful and having the com- plete mastery by turns-of one that is to say, inhabited by both a devil and an angel-seems to have been realized if all we hear is true, in the character of the extraordinary man, Edgar AL len Poe, writes N. P. Willis in the Home Journal at the time of Poe's death. His imagery was from the worlds which no mortals can see but with the vision of genius. Suddenly starting from proposition, exactly and sharply defined, in terms of ut most simplicity and clearness, he re- Jected the forms of customary logic, and by a crystalline process of accre- tion, built up his ocular demonstra- tions in forms of gloomiest and ghastliest grandeur so minutely and distinctly, that the attention which was yielded to him was chained till it stood among his wonderful creations, till he himself dissolved the spell, and brought his hearers back to com- mon and base existence.
 Now his works have been drama tized for the screen and Fox patrons will have the opportunity of seeing his HldSISII CICdIlOIS pOItIdyc cu III IIlO- tion-pictures. "The Averaging Con- science,' which is coming to Fox's to- morrow and Saturday was suggested by Poes story of "The Telltale Heart" and by certain of his poems of the af- fections.
 "The Averaging Conscience,' is the most mystifying, masterful and sensa- tional motion drama ever devised and :e,r po1 INxyf hrN horror of his crime, transplanted to the screen by the wonderfully vivid and artistic methods of D. w. Griffith the producer of "The Birth of Ma tion."

For four quarts allow a half pint of good cider vinegar. three pounds of granulated sugar, one ounce of whole cloves, half ounce Of cassia buds and two ounces of stick cinnamon. Tie the spices in a bit of cheese e-cloth, put into kettle with the vinegar and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Add the grape mixture and boil until almost as thick as marmalade, then bottle and seal.
 Peach Whip.-Peach whip calls for one cupful of pulp sweetened to taste. The whites of four eggs are whipped to stiff dry froth and the pulp added, a spoonful at time with long continuous heating until the mixture is very ligrt. This is to be served at once with cream or a chill ed boiled custard sauce
