Casino.

When E. H. Sothern, following the
decision of his distinguished wife, Julia
Marlowe, announced some time ago his
final retirement from the stage. there
was real regret among theatergoers,
who have followed his successful career
from the days of his famous Lord
Chumley to the high lights of Shakes
pearean Interpretation. and there is no
doubt that Mr.. Sothern's decision was
sincere. True he has consented to one
more tour of the country in one of his
most successful plays, but that is solely
and purely as a matter of charity, for
he Is giving all his share of the pro-
ceeds to the cause of the war sufferers
in his own country.
The announcement, therefore, that he
was to pose for the movies came as a
bit of surprise, and it may be added
of disappointment, to the loyal patrons
of the drama. But when he was forced
to make a speech in New York, after
witnessing his first feature play to be
made public he let the secret out. He
wanted to see himself as others have
seen him, and to this end he has posed
for ehree features. The Chattel,'
this week; THE Man of Mystery" and
IAN Enemy to the King" all of which
are ultimately to be shown on their
first release here at the Casino.
'Ihe Chattel, IN 1tS story, Is much
like the play Bought and Paid For"
In fact. that is the theme. A rich
bachelor weds woman to whose
father he has advanced a large sum,
which gives him the idea that he has
bought and paid for her just as for a
handsome picture which hangs on his
wall, and he learns to treat her so until
she resents 1t, leaves him and in a stock
deal threatens his fortune. He then
wakes up" and goes back to win her
on her own account. It is a series of
fine pictures that amply disclose Mr.
Sothern's art in such a role. He is
said to be much pleased with them
himself, and that Is fine testimony to
their fidelity and their power to reflect
the acting of a man who ranks among
the best actors with which the Ameri-
can stage is familiar. The picture also
shows Peggy Hyland. the English
actress.

Leader,

Mary Pickford in her quaint charac-
terization in "Hulda From Holland
was the photoplay attraction at the
Leader Theater yesterday and is being
shown again today at the Home of
Paramount Pictures"
In the matter of scenic detail and fine
photography, the photoplay is a fit set
ting for perhaps the most popular
star in the moving picture world While
for romance, the spectator will find
much pleasure in following the adven-
lures of the quaint little Dutch girl
early left. by the death of her parents,
as the mother of her little family of
brothers. who crosses the wide Allan
tic at the bidding of her uncle, when
poverty makes 1T necessary to break up
the old home in Holland. How she
reaches America, meets her uncle and
then is separated from him. finds a near
mother and subsequently real happiness
is a pretty story.

Crandall's.

THE Dark Silence" a photoplay of
unusual interest, in which Clara KIM
ball Young is pictured in the leading
role. was yesterdays attraction at
Crandall's. 1t is a big picture in ev-
cry particular. and afforded Miss
Young splendid opportunities in the
role OF Mildred. The story, which was
written by Paul West, concerns the
American girl who is studying art in
Paris. She meets an Englishman, and
their friendship rapidly ripens into
love. Shortly before the time set for
the wedding he leaves suddenly for
England, and his explanation. made In
letter, is misinterpreted by his
fiancee, who, heartbroken, volunteers
as Red Cross nurse. How she later
finds her lover on the battlefield. badly
wounded and blind. and how she nurses
him oack to health make the incidents
of heart appeal. The picture cast in

"The Wheel of the Law" a, story OF
the occa sional injustice of circum-

presented at the Strand yesterday. 1t
has to do with a politically ambitious
district attorney, who seeks to attain
the governorship of the state by max
ing a name for himself in the prosecu-
tion of criminal cases, with an utter
disregard for the reasonable-doubt ele-
mem specified by the law. He is about
to wreck his own wife's happiness by
the conviction of her brother. a re-
formed jailbird, when she demonstrates
to him the fallacy of circumstantial
evidence by contriving cleverly to place
him in the position of having, at
tempted to poison her in order to be
free to love another woman. Emily
Stevens, the picture star. as the wife
amply demonstrates her emotional
powers The story moves along with
an unfaltering pace and has many
scenes to hold the tense interest OF
the spectators. Harry Myers ano
Rosemary Theby are also pictured in a

SHARKS JAWS RIP
 FATHERS TO DEATH
Two Die, One Loses Leg, In Nar-

Matawan, N. J., July 13-Lester Stillwell, 12 years old. was killed by a man eating shark while bathing in an arm of Raritan Bay. near here, late yesterday afternoon Stanley Fisher, 24 years old, who went to his aid. was so. badly injured in a desperate struggle with the nine-foot sea monster that he died while being taken to Long Branch hospital Joseph Dunn, 12 years old. bathing some distance away in the same inlet was attacked by a shark and one of his legs was so lacerated it will have to be amputated.
 This is the third time within two weeks that sharks have claimed the lives of bathers along the New Jersey coast. Charles E. Van Sant. a youth Of Philadelphia, was killed by one off Beach Haven, N. J., on July 2. Charles Bruder, of Spring Lake, N J., was attacked and both his legs taken off by shark on July 6. He died while men who went to his rescue Were carrying him ashore.
 Few Venture Into Water.
 The summer population along the New Jersey coast has become terror stricken and few persons now are ven- turing in the water at beach resorts, which have not been protected by steel nets. Motor boat patrols carry ing armed men have been established at various points to hunt the man. eaters.
 A dozen or more boys, who also were bathing in the inlet, saw young Stillweu suddenly raise his hands above the water and heard his scream for help. A moment later he disap- peared from view. Fisher, powerful ly built and weighing 300 pounds, who was standing on the bank of the in let, leaped into the water to the res cue. He had gone only a few feet when the shark attacked him, tearing a piece out of one thigh.
 Tn spite of his wound Fisher bat tied with the shark and kept on un- til he reached young Stilwell. He caught the boy up in his arms and had started for shore when the shark renewed the attack. Burdened as he was, Fisher was helpless, and the sharp snapped off his leg.

BACK TO FRED SCHOOLHOUSE"
Winchester Men and Women Gather in Sanctuary of Their Youth "When Teller Needed 9 Friend"

Winchester Conn.,, July 13.-The little fred school house. took it's rightful place in this towns history today when teachers and pupils of other days, to the number of a hun dred or more. went to the school house which in 1880 had Mary Lyon, founder of Mount Ho1yoke seminary as an assistant teacher. It was the first reunion and to each of those who took part the "red school house" was not merely a term of speech. They had been taught in such a struc ture.
 The little building at which the gathering met was bought year ago by Clifford Bristol, Winsted merchant, to be preserved in a re- stored state as a landmark in perpe- tuity of the "red school houses" of New England and as a memorial to his father, Charles Bristol who at tended school in 1t. The host of the day was Clifford Bristol. Women of the Winchester Grange served dinner Tn the afternoon Elliott B. Bronson the town historian, related the story of the school house which was opened more than four score years ago. The present building was put up in the forties. -.a a.... t.-
