 She was a thin little girl, perhaps half a year younger than Jane, and she was as soiled, particularly In re- spect to hands, brow, chin and the knees of white stockings, as could be expected of any busybOdyish person Of nine or ten whose mother Is house | moving.
 The little girl across the street was of course instantly aware of Jane, though shs pretended not to be, and from the first her self importance was in large part assumed for the benefit of the observer.

FOX'S THEATER.

Tonight will bring to a close the To-
cal engagement of that remarkable
William S. Hart master-feature, 1.-THE
Cold Deck, which has been entertain
ing huge audiences at Fox's theater
since Sunday night. It presents Hart
at his best, and his work throughout
the entire picture Is nothing short Of
superb. AS ION the Level Leigh, the
only honest and most successful gam
bier in the little western mining town
where he made his temporary resi-
dence, he is found by a sister whom
he had not seen for years. She is in
ill health, and with the idea in mind
of taking her to a more healthful CHI
mate they move to mountain town,
in which one of the Mexican dancing
girls falls in love with Leigh. He takes
her at her face value, and makes use
of her for the information he can gain
from her. Aroused to anger by his
attitude toward her, she betrays him
to crooked gam ester, who relieves
him of his little pile. Driven by des-
peration, he holds up the stage which
has on board large shipment Of gold.
In an attempt to escape the driver of
the coach is shot and killed, and as
Leigh had fired at him, he naturally
SuppoSeS lnaI ne IS guilty OF murder.
The crime is made more dastardly in
his sight by the fact that he is deep
ly in love with the daughter of the
murdered man. After fruitless
search by the vigilantes, he surrend-
ers himself as the murderer, and is
jailed. Learning just before his lynch
ing was about to take place that he is
innocent, he makes his escape, and in
an exciting chase, rounds up the real
murderer. The whole picture, from
first to last, is teeming with exciting
situations and gripping scenes, and it
is easily the best thing that Hart has
ever done There will be two show
ings of the "Cold Deck" tonight, the
second beginning at nine o'clock. To-
