 Two problens which recently came before the Police commissions eEs were not acted upon at ta1eir meeting Sat urSaay night on ancount of there be- | Ing only five or the eight members present.

The amount Is I about $100s and at the previous meet ang of the board the matter was left over untaE there should be . full aA- 4 eeudanoe.

 Lieut. DoErance for the time of bis last illness which was from Dec g ito the following March 304 The Eauuount was $291. Officers Haipin, ffktaniford and schauzxecker have also
 cMpaCaty on the ground that their
 disability was brought about in the l paxfoRIlaanoe or duty.
 l The other case is a claim by Sergt- iF'atr8ck Otis for pay for 100 days 1 which were coming to him when 1 tzls position of sergeant .Patrol1nen iare allowed a day off without deduc- I ton from their pay They frequent j Iy choose to allow these days to aso- ] eumulate so that they may combine them into a vacation leave of ab-

ing his properties, comes upon her.
Wright, sick at heart, establishes an
industrial home and places Martha
and her benefactress in charge. He
becomes interested in Martha and she,
likewise, becomes interested in him.
One day, Wright hears lecture on
the life of the ancient Greeks and
becomes interested, so much so, in
fact, that he induces Gretta Carr, the
lecturer, to join him in the formation
f a Grecian colony The colony is
established in the village where Mar
tina had lived. All members of the
cult wear the flowing garb of the an
cient Greeks and dance and sing on
the spacious lawns in front of the
house, where the headquarters of the
colony are located.
The opening of the colony is the
occasion for a wave of scandal that
gradually sweeps throughout the
country. The gossipy town-folks are
horror-stricken at the sight of scores
of young men and women, dancing
and walking about in the scanty Gree
ian garb. The indignation of the viii
layers rises to fever heat, when they
learn that Martha is Appointment mem
Der of the cult, Ralph, rejected
sutton of Martha's, and her father, see
chance to even themselves with the
girl and their false stories soon re-
suit in the organization of mob,
which storms the home of the cult.
The mob is led by Ralph, who, un-
der his arm, carries a box of dyna-
mite. Entering the house, he goes to
deserted room, places the explosive
and lights the fuse. Wright catches
him in the act, chokes and leaves him
Unconscious. Then he fees after
warning the others to follow. AS the

THE HOUSE OF A THOUSAND
SCANDALS"


Harold Lockwood and May Allison,
talented young stars of the silent
drama, who hold so firm place in
the hearts OF the motion picture fans,
are the featured players in The
House of Thousand Scandals" a
Mutual Masterpiece in four acts, pro-
duced by the American Film Com
pany, Inc.
Lockwood, tall, handsome, with a
most exceptional personality, whose
work in "The Lure of the Mask" and
"The Secretary of Frivolous Affairs"
preceding Mutual Masterpiece
brought him intothe first rank of
stars of screenland, as John Wright.
a young man with many millions OF
dollars credited to his bank account,
in "The House of Thousand Scan
dals" delivers one of the most inter-
esting characterizations ever filmed
No less success is scored byMiss
Allison, the much herhlded young
blond beauty of motion pictures, who
was co-star with Lockwood i'll "The
Secretary of Frivolous Affairs" Miss
Allison, whose portrayals in Ameri-
can productions has won her an envia-
bic position in screen work, in The
House of Thousand Scandal, APP
pears as Martha Hobbs, the much
abused daughter of Farmer Hobbs, a
surly and crusty old creature, who,
although possessing considerable
means, compels his wife and daughter
to live life of drudgery. Miss Ali
sons beauty, however, as striking on
the screen as off, is by no means lost
sight of in her portrayal of this lovely
daughter of thehills.
"The House of Thousand Scan
dals" is, as with the majority of the
Mutual Masterpiece releases, truly

inter, ,ig story, fairly alive With
heart interest, replete with action, un-
usual climaxes and plentifully inter
spersed with humor.
1t is a real play, for a real, red
blooded people and, while in no sense
of the word a preachment, neverthe-
less it contains one of the most hui
manly interested stories ever
screened.
For the presentation of Lockwood
and Miss Allison, Thomas Rick
etts, who directed the screening of
THE House of Thousand Scandals"
surrounded them with an exceptional
1y clever company of screen players,
including Josephine Dit, as Gretta
Carr; William Ehfe, as Ralph, Mar
tha's country suitor; Hal Clements, as
Farmers Hobbs; Bessie Banks, as
Mrs. Hobbs; Perry Banks, as the
trouble maker of the village; and
Robert Klein, as the lawyer.
The scenes, particularly those in
which the Greek dances, produced un-
der the direction of Miss Margaret
Hawkesworth, take place, are the
most pretentions of their kind ever
filmed.
"The House of Thousand Scan
dals," concerns John Wright, who, up
on inheriting the vast estates and mil
lions of his father and having to some
extent become student of sociology,
starts out to investigate the various
sources from which his income is de-
rived. Riding through a wooded sec
ton, he meets Martha Hobbs the rag
ged, yet beautiful daughter of Farmer
Hobbs, a close-hsted hard hearted
taskmaster, who, although possessing
considerable means compels his wife
and dauqter to lead life of contin-
ued drudgery. The wife, collapsing
under the strain, finally dies, and
Martha, after blaming her father for
her death, leaves to seek home with
relatives in the city
Unable to find her relatives, she ac-
cepts temporary home with an aged
woman in her shabby, foul-smelIing

there is terrific explosion and what
a moment before was a magnificent
home, is now tangled mass of smok-
ing ruins. Ralph, later, is found dead
in the ruins.
From the ruins, rises an even more
beautiful structure and the happy life
of the cult is resumed, amid the deaf
ening approval of the villagers. Then
follows the marriage of the million
aire and the young waif of the wild
wood.
