Every one who has studied the question knows that it only stops the sale of liquor flor beverage purposes v and yet we occasionally find some one who is worrying about this other mat ter, so once more let us say that there has never been the slightest idea on the part of those who have promoted the legislation of interfering in any way with the proper use of alcohol or of interfering with any religious or sacramental use of wine.

CARLYLE BLACKWELL
l IN 1.-THE BURGLARY

The many friends of Carlyle Black
we'll will tonight at the Orpheum thea
ter have the opportunity of seeing him
in different sort of a role from the
kind he IS accustomed to playing. Mr.
Blackwell in "The Burglar the World
Picture Brady.Made which win be
shown at this theatre on this date, en-.
acts the role of man who is the
unfortunate creature of circumstances,
He is first seen as fun-lOving, i'm
petuous young college student who
through his love of a prank gets into
a very serious scrape. Later, when in
another city he is making good and is
happily married, the wrong that he
did before rises to plague him and it
finally lands him in the penitentiary.
Still later in a. very surprising man.
ner he finds his wife and little daugh-
ter. Co.starred with Mr. Blackwell in
this production are Evelyn Greeley
and Madge Evans and, needless to say,
they give very superior persorations
William A. Brady declares that "The
Burglar" is the best five reel feature
ever filmed. Be sure to see 1t.
