movies have heretofore usually been
left to the hectic, badly jumbled
serial story. In "His Wife's Friend"
starring Dorothy Dalton, and which
will continue to be the offering at
the Strand today and Tuesday,
Thomas H. Ince has produced a
highly interesting piece of work in
which battling murder case is
mingled with love theme of more
than ordinary appeal.
The murdered man is an eccentric
millionaire whose obsession is chess,
which he plays in solitude to the neg
lect of his young wife. A former
sweetheart of the wife's appears, and
the husband, to all intents and pur-
poses, commits suicide to allow the
two to be free and marty. However,
suspicion points to the wife's ad-
nirer and the audience is kept in
suspense while the scenes shift to
India where the suspected man is a
major in the British army in CAM
paign against the rebels. 1t is a
highly entertaining mystery picture
