Mr. Walter G. Tatnall,
Wilmington, Del.
Dear Sir. At the regular meet
ing Of the National German Ameri-
can Alliance, Delaware Branch. /
had the great pleasure Of finding
a unanimous response to a propo
sition which you prompted by
your letter seeking contributions
for the Caesar Rodney Statue.
AS you perhaps know, we are en-
gagged in sending every available
cent TO. our brethren across the
sea and many among us, not being
overly blessed with the good
things of this world, are taxed
rather hard by the necessities OF
war; Therefore, we feel that our
small gift of SO toward the
monument will be received in the
spirit in which it is given, the
spirit of self-sacrihce and true
patriotism Should the war end
soon, we could do more.
Wishing your success in the
sometimes thankless work Of
raising funds, I remain
Respectfully yours,
S. G. Won BOSSE.

old drama of English country life is
enacted in all trueness to it's power

of Miss Bara, including those picture

In writing the scenario from the

the scope of the story along lines only
possible in moving pictures. Bertram
Bracken, who directs the picture star

east, where the buildings and gardens
appeared quite like those of rural Eng

the Fox studios in New Jersey, show
genuine old English antique furnish
ings, which lend a color unusually cor
rect, even considering the usual accu-
racy of high-lass picture productions.

ORPHEO THEATRE.

Monday-The story of "The Chill
dren in the House," a new Triangle
Fine Arts release featuring Norma
Talmadge to be shown at the Orpheo
theatre beginning Monday covers a
varied action with thrills, laughter,
tears and poetic fancy much inter
woven. Arthur Vincent, a real estate
dealer, neglects his wife, and two chill
dren while in the tolls of Jane Courte-
nay, an empty headed cabaret dancer.
Cora, the wife, frequently visits her
sister Alice who lives next door. Alice
is the wife of Fred Brown, a detective,
and has three children. With the
family lives Fred's bachelor brother,
Charles, who is a former lover of
Cora, and can not bear to see her ne
elected by her husband.
1t is during one of Cora's visits to
the house, when Charles goes off and
sits by the fire alone to try and still

to beg him for goodnight" story.
While he is celebrating, one of the
children asks him why he has no
wife and children of his own land in
this he finds his inspiration. Unknown
to him, Cora is listening behind the
curtain.
Later, Cora and Charles are thrown
together, and she admits that her
heart has been made cold stone too.
And the old love blazes up fiercely.
In the meantime, Arthur is in dang

"Tain't no use, masta." cried the ter
rified negro. "Dey's Already flooded
more'n man-deep. And we'se all a'goin'
to be drowned-O Gawd, we'se all
eoln' to be drownedi"
Get down to those pumps!" thun-
dered Golden. "And get those slufce
gates shut!"
He had crossed the room, catching
up his hat and coat as he went, and
was already out through the door as
he finished speaking. Twenty steps
brought him to the loggia railing. And
Golden knew that no time was to be
lost, for already the sea had crept to
the lip of the manor garden itself.
"Get down to the wharf-cut and
bring the boats" he commanded. Then
he swung back to his household serv-
ants, ordering them to carry above
stairs everything they could seize.
Then, as the water rose about his
feet. he suddenly turned and rushed
back into the manor house.
"Margory," he called, like a man
gone mad. "Margory. where are your"
But that call remained unanswered,
for the old negro nurse, at the first
shouts of alarm, had caught up the
child and carried her out through the
servants entrance, on the way to the
wharf-cut where she knew the boats
to be moored. The child had proved
too heavy for the quivering old arms,
SO she had left the girl, with her kit
ten still clutched to her breast, safe
in the doorway of cotton-shed. while
she herself staggered out on infirm
old legs to seize an empty punt drift
ing by on the rising water. But the
current was too strong for her, and
as the negress and boat were carried
away the water rose still higher about
the child's feet. Yet. thinking more

citrants were punished, together with
that flower of Inquisitional ferocity,
the Spanish Screw-Jack, an elabora-
tIon of the thumbscrew, in which q
prisoners hand could be inserted and
slowly crushed to pulp. Yet cruel
as seemed these old-time implements
of torture, stained with the tears and
blood of another country. they were
no more cruel than the relentless light
in Golden's eyes as he confronted his
prisoner, tied and trussed in black
oak chair close beside the old Span
ish Screw-Jack. The drunkenness of
blind rage sang through the planters
veins as he watched his stalwart ne
groes thrust the ancient branding iron
into it's brazier of hot Goals.
THAT is the hand that polluted her
body" his heart kept crying, as he
commanded the blacks to force Pali-
doris free arm into the screw-tack.
And now crush it," he called aloud.
He waited for some outcry as the
screw frightened on flesh and bone.
But the Italian remained silent. Gold
en-, now white to the lips, ordered
the negro beside him to take up the
branding iron. For that is the face"

heart kept crying, that violated her
face"
The negro knocked the coal cinders
from the glowing iron. Palidori's mus
cles hardened. But still he was silent

island, after an hours time, shoot him
like a dog!"
A nervous sweat still showed in a
scattering of high lights across the
planters sinewy face as he locked HIM
self in his study and stared blankly
about the empty room. The wine of
rage had already ebbed from his
blood. Exultation no longer shone in
his steely eyes. He crossed slowly to
the window and closed 1t. He failed

said: May my other hand wither off.

But Golden neither saw nor heard.

his own misery of mind.

hands when the old negro nurse

bers of the cotton-shed to the roof.
There she sat. calling forlornly for
her lost nurse.
Golden, in the meantime. ragged
through the flooded manor house
threatening and storming and COM
manding his servants to find his child.
He was still deep in that agonized
search when three of his old serv-
ants appeared with small surf boat
and called frantically for him to come.
while there was still time.
Golden, water-soaked and wild-eyed,
refused their help. ordering them
away and proclaiming that he would
find his daughter. But as he STUN
bled amid the drifting wreckage and
fell against the boatside the negroes
dragged him aboard and pushed off.
for already the water had weakened
the manor foundations and the walls
were falling about them.
Their progress was slow. It was
with difficulty in those wild currents
that they threaded their way amid the
levee timbers, outbuildings and melan-
choly debris of the plantation. More
swiftly-moving. in fact. was second
boat which one of the negroes sud
denly caught sight of.
Golden, rousing himself at his serv-
ants shout, saw that this second craft,
rowed by a bearded white man. was
bearing down on a nearby cottop-shed.
At the same moment that he caught
sight of his daughter Margory on the
roof of this shed he made out the fig
ure of Palidori himself directing the
movements of the bearded man SO

gasped Golden.
Open laughter showed on Palidori's
sinister face. as with his sound arm
he held the struggling figure in white
close to his side.
Have no fear of that" he called
back across the swirling water. as his
bearded confederate bent to the oars.
"She will live. But she will live in a
way that will leave you praying she
had died!"
