The story of "The Law of Compen-

a wealthy lawyer Of the middle west.

Margaret Ellington Comes on
Screen in a StrOnu PIav

Margaret Ellington will make her
debut on the photodramatic screen in
the gripping and vivid drama, N"Sac-
rifce," written especially for her by
Charles Kenyon and prepared for the
screen by Beatrice c. De Mile and
Leighton Osmun. Sacrifice" is a
Lasky-P aramount picture, which will
be the attraction at the Muse theater
Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
An unusual incident is in the fact
that Miss Ellington will make her
screen debut in a story by the same
author in whose play, "Kindling," she
scored her greatest dramatic triumph.
AS soon as the story Sacrifice" APP
pears on the screen, Mr.. Kenyon will
prepare a version of it for the speak
ing stage.
Ever since her first appearance be-
fore the footlights, Miss Ellington has
been one of the most distinguished
and popular stars on the American
stage. Her wonderful performance in
"The Thief" which ran for over a
year in New York City, established
Miss Ellington as one of the country's
most successful emotional actresses.
Later she repeated her success in
"Kindling," which was hailed by all
as one of the most unusual and ap-
pealing plays of the decade.
Still later, Miss Ellington won
fresh laurels in within the Law" In
Sacrifice" Miss Ellington plays a
dual role-that of the daughter of
high government official and as a no.
torious dancer in a small prin-
cipality of Europe.

HELEN TURNS THE SWITCH AND SENDS THE FLYING EN-
CINE ONTO THE HOUSE TRACK.

with Mr.. and Mrs. Webb. Hardly
had this much been done when an
angry scene in the office upset their
calculations. Frost learned that a
quantity of silk had been stolen from
the manifest car before it burned, and
though Webb in this instance could
not possibly have done more, the
manager made him the scapegoat in
the affair and promoted Burke to
Webb's position as chief special
officer.
Helen felt outraged at the injustice
OF the step. She took her hat and
made ready to quit the office with her
deposed chief. He stopped her. II
know how you feel, Helen; it's pretty
hard to stand the gaff when it isn't
coming to a man. But I've been slack
and l ought not to complain. There's
a good old saying though: Don't cut
off your nose to spite your face And
it would be the greatest kind of a
mistake for you to quit. With the in
formation you can supply from this
office ] may run down Masters and
these raiders myself"
The robberies were now the sensa-
ton of the division. Roy Wilson,
Frost's secretary and son of the pres
ident of the line, himself felt the call
to be new Whispering Smith on the
road and begged Frost to give him
Burke's former job as assistant head
Of the claim department. Frost de-
INJURED: You'd best keep out o. that.
Your father wouldn't wan; 10 see you
brought home on stretcher."
"He never will" contended the
presidents son. "But he wants to see
me take mans chance and just at
present | can't do better than to
take it in that end of the game"
For Helen it was very lucky that
Frost gave in. She had now just one
friend in the department-Roy Will
son.
Hardly had these changes taken
place when the senior Wilson joined
Desmond at Mountain Springs. Des-
mond calling at the various headquar-
tiers Offices encountered Helen in the
claim department. He lost no time
in getting acquainted and Burke, con-
hdent as usual, attempted to break
into their conversation. Approaching
Desmond he held out his hand. "I'm
the chief special officer" said he. my
name is Burke
Desmond, irritated at l.aving his
talk with Helen interrupted, was ex-
tremely rude. He looked at Burke
with the GOODNESS Of finished rascal.
That's not my fault" was all he said.
But he turned from him to go into
Frost's Office to conference.
Burke, Inundated, walked out of
doors with the thought that he must
make himself strong in TIE companys
eyes while the president OF the road
was at hand. Looking across the yard
he saw Wilson's car and an idea &C.
Cured to him; he started at once
for the pawnbroker's to arrange its
details.
In the managers office Frost was
talking with Desmond. We've had
a startling number Of thefts recently
on this division"
Desmond, busted in mind with his
own schemes, commented strangely.
That's hne," said he. Frost regard
ed him in amazement. Pardon me-"
laughed Desmond indifferently, 81

Jolson as the star, will be presented
at the Boyd May II, IS and 10, with
matinee Saturday. OF all the stars
who have appeared on the stage of
the New York Winter Garden Jolson
is without question the most popu-
lar-in fact, he takes rank with Harry
Lauder as an entertainer of unique
traits and one who, if need be, could
entertain an audience for an entire
evening without the aid of support
ing company, But as the Winter Gar
den does things on lavish scale, Mr..
Jolson this year is surrounded by a
large company, including Lawrence
D'Orsay, Frank Carter, Claude Flem-
ming, Bowers, Walters and Cocker,
Frank Grace, Johnny Berkes, George
Lavender, Mabel Withee, Kitty
Doner, Mile Rodriguez and others.
The production, it is promised, will
be the most pretentious end possibly
the most spectacular ever sent out OF
New York. The book and lyrics are
by Harold Atteridge and Edgar
Smith, the music by Sigmund Rom
berg and James Hanley. The mod
ern dances and ensembles are the
work of Allen K. Foster. Mr.. J. C.
Huffman is the general director who
has put on the entire show.

A Woman's Wit.

When Helen's eyes opened she was
looking up into the anxious face of
Webb, the freight crew standing
about him, Thankful at escaping
with their lives, the party boarded the
freight train for headquarters.
AT Mountain Springs Burke, with
Masters and Marshall at the pawn
brokers' shop, was dividing the spoil
Of the silk theft. Burke felt elated !:
IF | don't get Webb's job on this
deal I'll eat my hat" Masters alone
pointed out a danger: Watch that
girl in your office. She came mighty
near getting me-" he said, and made
ready to return to Wayne's.
Intrigue of more distant but none
the less threatening nature now de-
veloped to affect the fortunes of the
western division. The line itself
formed link in a transcontinental
highway. Eastern hnancicrs, dream
ing of coast-to-coast road under one
management, were making an effort
to obtain control of the mountain
line that would complete their steel
chain from ocean to ocean. The
higher officials of the road favored
the merger, but lacked the voting
strength to bring it about. 1t was at
this juncture that Desmond, an east
ern man and past master in railroad
made a suggestion to Viii
son, president of the line, and his as
sociates: Arrange for maintenance
charges that will absorb your next
dividend and l will get possession of
the stock you need to swing this
deal" Desmond, accordingly, went
to Mountain Springs in confidential
to lay pipe for the merger.
Quite unaware of this scheme,
Helen and Webb were determined to
put an end to the depredations on the
division and to work more closely to-

Frederick Warde Gives Over
Buskin to Face the Camera

1t required considerable argument
to induce Frederick Warde to appear
in a modern role on the screen in
"Hinton's Double" a photoplay of
mistaken identity and the law, in
which he is to be seen at the Empress
theatcr Thursday, Friday and Satur-
day.
Mr.. Warde has played, lectured and
written of Shakespeare and the classic
drama so long and was so accustomed
to the Roman toga, the medieval
hauberk and the sweeping plume of
the courtly cavalier, that he was afraid
that he would be i'll at ease in an eve
ming dress or business suit before the
camera.
Just as this state of mind pervaded
the famous ShEkespearean player, Ed
win Thanhouser flashed before his
eyes some old photographs of Mr..
Warde as Henri Beauclere in "Diplo-
macy" in Fifth Avenue" at Booths
theater and other modern parts that
he played in the course of his early
career in this country with distinction
and success. The very human Fred
erick Warde could not conceive that
he wouldn't show up as well in the
same sort of dress today.
The result was "Hinton's Double"
by Lloyd Lonergan, in which Mr..
Warde plays dual role OF a we'll
groomed man of the world and a
humble clerk in business Office, diff

The police retired and Burke, hav.
ing the address of the crooks, had
only to go to their house, knock at the
door, cover the two men and take
them in custody, neither of them sus-
pecting they had been double-crossed
Roy Wilson's party had reached the
bridge with their payroll just ahead
of the local train on which Helen was
riding to Raymond. As her train
drew up near the construction camp
Helen, looking from the window, saw
Marshall and Masters at their auto
Masters was cutting out a piece OF
rubber. She recognized him instantly
and leaving the car made toward him.
The payroll had already been taken to
the camp Office and Roy with the pay
master was at work.
Masters and his crony crept up be-
side the shack window, Masters with
a slingshot in his hand. They raised
the window guardedly. The next in
slant the paymaster was knocked over
with the slingshot. Roy was covered
with gun, the money was stolen and
the escape made before Helen could
reach the office.
She had not, however, been idle.
Reaching Marshalps machine she at
once broke off the spark plugs with a
hammer. The two thieves, running
back with the money, tried to start
the auto. In vain, they could do moth
ing and dashing in desperation to-
ward the local train they boarded it
as it was pulling from the station.
Helen had seen the play. She ran
to the empty track motor and, climb
ing In, started after the train, yelling
back TO Desmond: They made the
passenger!
Frost and Wilson seized a light en-
CINE and joined in the chase. The
thieves, perceiving Helen after them,
hurried forward, held up the engine
crew and, uncoupling, dashed ahead
with the light engine. A long pass
ing track gave Helen chance to
overtake them. They began shooting.
Leaning out on the opposite running
board, she rode past them, escaped
unhurt, reached a station ahead and
with. the engine at her heels threw
the switch and turned the big ma
chine in on the mouse track. Marshall
jumped. The engine, tearing through
the bumper, plowed through the end
of warehouse.
Frost and Wilson on the second en-
CINE now arrived in time to capture
Masters and congratulate Helen and
with Roy she got on the pilot of this
engine and the party started back for
the bridge camp.

merger intrigue, Frost appeared salts
fed, but he wondered what the ma
ture of Desmond's business at head
quarters could be.
AT Lowenstein's Burke lost no time
in explaining his idea. There's a
good haul set out in the yards-Wil-
sons private car said he to the
pawnbroker. 1T will be clear about
; o'clock ii you have anyone for the
job"
The pawnbroker ran over his list Of
eligibles and, finding an address,
showed the name to Burke. The lat
ter, satisfied, left Lowenstein to ar
range with his confederates.
Wilson, together with his son and
Desmond, were leaving the private
car after luncheon, when they saw a
track motor approaching the station.
What's that?" demanded Desmond.
The paymaster's OUTFIT explained
Roy. 1T carries the payroll out to
the bridge gang"
Suppose we go out this afternoon
and look the bridge work over" sug-
gested Wilson.
There's hardly room on the mo-
tor" said Roy, unless we leave the
guards here"
why not?' suggested Desmond.
"As Burke's assistant" returned
Roy, 81 can guard the payroll myself
and we can take the track motor
down together"
Burke, unwilling to let any chance
slip, had gone in an auto to Wayne's
Siding, with word to Masters and
Marshall. This is pay day at the
construction camp. You might make
haul there"
They needed only the hint and
started in one machine, while Burke,
in the other, returned to his office.

The master of the American schooner island with three other men from Mopeha Island, which they left September l9. The master, Hador Smith, states that his vessel was captured by the German raider Seeadler on June 15. The schooner was destroyed by burning and the entire crew taken aboard the raider.
 Smith further states that the Seeadler captured on June IA the American sehoon- CT A. B. Johnson and on July the Amer ican schooner Manila. The Manila was destroyed by dynamite, after which the Seeadler proceeded to Mopeha Island, the westward island of the Society group, ar irving there July 3l.
