at as much as any moving picture
actress. does her usual stunt Of wreck
ing lives in The Eternal Sapho,'

becomes a model for one Of them. The
atue resulting from the sculptor's
work Is called T"Sapho." Laura soon
becomes acquainted with other men,
and tries to influence a man who is al
ready happily married. His little
daughter fascinates the vampire wom-
an however and she is restrained.
She finally becomes the wife Of NAL
vern, and has prospects Of happy life.
Scenes of artist life are procured in
realistic manner without going be-
You'd the bounds Of decency. Miss
Baras Interpretation of her part, as
usual, Is accompanied by powerful fac
;al expressions and acting that is dis
tinctive. The remainder of the com
pany fills in satisfactorily.

SEARS SENT HOME.
Fiery Outfieder Suspended by Manager

ICY O0eHeioeT suspended oy Manager
y Drohan.
!. Following the excitement attendant
upon the election from the park OF
Outfielder Sears by Umpire Asher in
yesterdays game, Manager Drohan, of
the Clinton club, sent Sears back to
Clinton last night, with instructions
to cool off and get ready to play when
the team came home. Sears was not
released, merely suspended, Manager
Drohan said this morning.
1t developed today that the cause
of the rumpus which resulted in Sears
being put out of the park, was the
former local tielder's desire to pitch.
Drohan was wondering whom he would
put in to finish the game, and Sears
expressed the opinion that he could
serve up balls and strikes. Drohan did
not offer to put Sears in, and the out
fielder became considerably excited.
His language and actions attracted the
attention of Asher, and Punishment re-
suited.
