RUNAWAY BOYS ARE CAUGHT
Tell Police They Are From Chicago,
Later Developments Different.

Three boys were caught by Officer
Francis at the Frisco station last night
at II o'clock and brought to the police
station, where they were booked on in
vestlgation. The boys said they were
from Chicago and were on their way
to New Orleans. They were travelling
in a Missouri licensed automobile.
At the station the boys gave their
names as Robert Adams, Edward
Adamson and James Brooksy. These
names were undoubtedly as fictitious
as was the story of their coming from
Chicago.
From the machine was taken n 22-
callber repeating rifle and an old bull
dog pistol of 80 caliber and three suit
cases with clothing bearing a Kansas
City trade mark. There was also
found in the suitcases letters and
cards that tended to show that the
boys names were Allen Philbrook.
George A. Stone and Horace Love, all
from Kansas City.
Upon being questioned It was found
that the boys knew nothing whatever
about Chicago, altho they said that
they had lived there two years

Vivian Martin at Lamara

Today offers the last opportunity to witness The Sunset Trail, Para mount't latest offering starring Vivian Martin-"the sweetest girl in pictures, which is at present being shown at the Lamara. Vivian Martins charming personality and wonderful versatility have gained for her the title of the empress of sunshine" All of her plays have featured this admirable trait of her character and the present one is no exception. It is the story of girl who is battling for happiness amid the most adverse of surroundings. Her home life as a girl is not of the hap piest sort. She has been reared in the wilds of the California mountains with only the companionship of her mother and father neither of whom seem to appreciate the rare jewel which is theirs through the possession of this daughter. It is when a young man from the east comes into her life that she really begins to live. Under the influ- ence of her wholesouled love for this man, we see her develop into charming young womanhood, and her entrance tC society in the city is one of the events of the season.
