alter yesterday in his original. melo-
dramatic comedy. In Asain-Out
Again." In this piece Mr.. Fairbanks
plays the role of a young man whose
ideas of preparedness cause his sweet

man, who is not SO warlike. He pro-
ceeds to drown his supposed sorrows
in sundry beverages. and ia the morn

commits many minor offenses. Des-
perate, he finally impersonates bomb
throwing criminal. and comes very
close to being entangled with the fed
eral authorities, but by a strange turn
of events captures the real miscreant,
and GU tof gratitude the jailer cheer
fully permits him to wed his daughter
