Last Times Today, "An international

The Paramount feature presents for
the last times today Rita Jolivet in
"An International Marriage" A photo
play with a decided foreign flavor and
attractiveness is Morosco's latest re-
lease on the Paramount program, IAN
International Marriage"
This production that is at this the
atre today is the film version Of G.
Broadhurst's successful drama.
1t seems to be more than coinci-
dent that beautiful and vivacious Rita
Jolivet, the star, should have been
married to an Italian nobleman, Count
Cippico, a renowned horseman.
This may have been considered
when the selection was made. At any
rate the combination was with the
excellent cast including such we'll
known players as Elliott Dexter,
Courtenay Foote, Herbert Standing,
Marc Robbins, and Olive White por-
trays a very interesting story of in
ternational social life, full Of attrac

The 10th episode Of "The Mysteries

Some Of the boys employed about
the Maine Central station, as well as
others, are wondering and have been
wondering since Wednesday night as
to the meaning Of some mysterious
holes which appeared in the bank
along the west side Of the track at
the foot Of Court street, and not only
that, but along the bank above the re-
tanning wall down to the Rines hill
bridge. as we'll as on the terrace on
the east side Of the tracks and south
of the station. Some Of those who first
saw the holes suggested that perhaps
they may have been done by wood
chucks but there were others who saw
the holes dug knew that they were dug
by the hand Of man. Two men did the
work. one Of whom by the aid Of a
blue print indicated the locations of
the holes, after which the other dug
them. That the holes were dug for a
purpose there Is no doubt, but just
what the purpose was has not yet
been revealed.

COLONIAL THEATRE
"Hop, tho DEVILS Brew; "The cad";
"The Best Mans Bride; A Comedy;
"The Pipe Dream"

Hop, the Devils Brew" Is strong
drama dealing with the illegal traffic
in opium. No newspaper story ever
gave the reader so complete an idea OF
how opium smugglers operate and how
government inspectors work to check
them. On the "Queen of the Orient" II
shows both ends Of the game-the Sc.
creting Of opium in life preservers and
blocks of wood that may be fraudulant-
ly landed on shore, also the tactics OF
the inspectors familiar with the tricks
Of the drug dealers.
To express your thoughts Of the play
in one word, natural, would be the mos,
appropriate. Combined with such
a quantity Of realistic incidents, it all
seems like a page out Of life and the
restrained acting of Mr.. Smalley as
the inspector and Lois Weber as his
wife, addicted to opium, contributes to
the impression.
