LINKED MAN LOSES
TITLE TO FORTUNE
Born Friday, 18th, on 18th
Street, Reginald Jones Is Bad
Luck Victim n"Never Say
Quit"

Reginald Jones probably did not
know that people who want to be
lucky must wear a fish around their
necks. Only some such fatal omis-
sion on his part could have given the
demon of bad luck the courage to pes
ter him as 1t did.
The troubles which befaI this vic
tim of bad luck are shown in a George
Walsh comedy, Never Say Quit"
which opens at the Empress Monday
for a. two-day engagement.
On piece of tough luck after an
other makes life exciting and miser-
able for the hero of this William Fox
photoplay.
HE WAS JINxED!
First of all, Reginald was born on
Friday the thirteenth on 18th street
That was quite enough to mark him
for victim of the jinx. A rich aunt
leaves him a fortune on condition that
he attend her funeral. He makes a
dozen efforts to get to that funeral
but the jinx always crawls between
his feet SO he is robbed, or bruised,
or kidnapped, and beset by a hun
dred mishaps which cause him to lose
the fortune.
His voyage in quest of sunken trea-
sure is not less unfortunate than his
other experiences. Even marriage
cannot drive the jinx away.

This week claims amounting TO more

The relatives Of sergeant Riordan and

in the recent attack on the police
hut near Ennistymon, seek $4,000 for
each life. That a dead policeman
should be valued at such a figure has
come as an astonishing disclosure TO
the community.
Constables and civilians who have

ranging from 1899 TO S21,650. The
