She had made on mis-stcp-if such it could be called She had stolen ring to buy food for her baby Then, discovery, imprisonment and three years of Hell And when she finally did secure parole her child was barred from her hungry arms by the law which unable to read her pure and yearning motherhood questioned her fitness for guardian ship.
 But just at the right time man came into her life to offer his name and protection. Her husbands hat red of all that was wrong impelled her to hold from him the great sec. ret of her imprisonment. But the lie that she was living took it's toll of anguish, and finally she stole to retain the love of her husband. And because she staked all-honor, free dom, even her husbands love-Fata staged the triumph of the weak, and gave the right to live and love and to be loved to true-hearted wo- man.

FAMOUS DANSEUSE TO APPEAR AT COLISEUM IN "SUNSHiNE MA v

Diminutive Ann Pennington, the well known dancer of the Ziegfield Follies, Miss 1917,55 and other at fractions, is to be the star at the Coliseum Theatre beginning on Tues day and continuing Wednesday.
 She will appear in her newest photoplay Sunshine Nan" which is an adaptation of Alice Began Rice's Calvary Alley" Director Charles Giblyn has followed the original script very closely from a scenario by Eve Unsell, and an excellent cast includes Richard Barthelmess, also widely known as a dancer; Hel- en Tracey and others. The story is one of the slums, and Miss Pen nington, the dainty, is introduced as a typical "alley rat" Her ragged champion becomes a famous inven- tor and MacPherson Clark, son of the rich factory owner, has his life saved by Miss Pennington later in the story.

MANS SELFISHNESS GIVES
 WAY TO WOMAN'S NOBILITY LIN M. S. HARI,S PHOTOpRAMA

That innocence is invariably it's )wn protection and selfishness as d characteristic is bound to react up )n itself, are truisms amply illustrat- ed in Selfish Yates," the new film vehicle of William s. Hart, the Thomas H. Ince-Artcraft star, which has just been released, and is show ing at the Coliseum for the laot time tonight The picture was di- rected by MT. Hart himself, under the supervision of Thomas H. Incc, and it is said to be one of the most effective in the Hart repertoire of Western portrayals.
 In this picture MT Hart is seen as an utterly selfish, brutal dive keeper, whose spiritual nature is re- formed through the agency of an in nocent and confiding girl who drops out of nowhere into the circle in which Yates reigns as king, and who inspires love in his heart. Jane Novak, as Mary Adams, is the hero inc whose sweetness and innocence, HOI OHly save Ter lTUlu u dSiC fate, but overcome the egotism and the sordid selfishness of Yates him self.
 The story, written by c. Garnder Sullivan, is a psychological study of human temperament and one that will add another laurel to the wreath of Mr Hart's successes. The scenes transpire in the town of Thirsty Center in the Dos Cabasas mountains, Arizona. Scenically, it is one of the finest pictures in which MT. Hart ever has been seen and the story itself affords the characters ample scope for the display of their re- spective talents. The support is ex- cellent and includes, aside from Jane Novak, B. Sprotte, Harry Dunkip5on, Ernest Butterworth, Thelma Salter and others.

SPORTS

SAN FRANCISCO-Unless he be comes homesick or subject to 'tem- peramental' upset in the meantime, Willie Meehan. the local heavyweight boxer, who has acquired the record of meeting more of the dangerous men of the ring than any other fight CT on the Pacific Coast, will enter tain the Eastern followers of boxing for a couple of months.
 Meehan has been generous in giv- ing his services to various wartime benefits and he has been unique in that he never has questioned who he was going to fight but was willing to go on with any match which was made. That his work has been cut out for him by the matchmakers is best indicated by the fact that among those whom he fought were Jack Dempsey, Fred Fulton, Sam Langfor1 and Jeff Clarke. He de- feated all of this quartottc with the exception of Fulton who twice was awarded the decision over Meehan.
 Among une men thus lar selecteu to meet Meehan on his Eastern trip are Billy Miske at St. Paul, and Jimmy Coffey in Philadelphia. Nee han has the reputation of not being very hard hitter and his only blow is a wide swinging punch but his unusual methods when in the ring not only baffle his opponent but afford a unique entertainment for the spectators

 As youth at Warren, Ohio. MT. Biggers staged a little play of his own composition which was so ridi- culed by his playmates that he then and there determined to be a play wright, declaring that if he couldn't make good as an amateur he'd show professional. Bearing this determin, ation in mind, MT. Biggers, after completing his high school course, etnered Harvard University and be came a member of Bakers Dozen,' a group of students under Professor Bakers direction, who wrote plays After graduating from Harvard, he became dramatic critic on the Boston Traveller. While connected with this paper he wrote his first play, Are You Human?" produced by John Craig. On the strength of this he and George M. Conan dramatized the formers novel, Seven Keys to Baldpate." In 1915 Inside the Lines" was produced as a play and scored an emphatic hit As a stock pro- duction it is acknowledged the best money getter of all recent Broad way successes released for stock pre-. sentation
