"NAULAHkA" AT THE
 ORPHEUM IS FASCINATING STORY OF THE EAST.

A thoroughly entertaining story artistic atmosphere and direction of the very best assures those who at. tend "Naulahka," Kipling's story, at the Orpheum tonight The story is interesting because it carries con trast, blending the rough and ready action of the western United State with the mystery of the East; the straightforwardnes of the white race as compared with the superstition , and treacherous action of the Mo. Lammedans, all of which have been suspense and thrills from beginnina to end. American wit and ingenuity against foreign intrigues is always q theme that will appeal to Americans, and this point is the fundamental principle upon which the story is based.
 A picture audience needs little in. troduction to the story owing to the fact that the story, in book form, has had widespread circulation. It is lyplCdl huuydTu hlpllNb SIOTy ana as such carries all of the strong and appealing dramatic situations that rae usually emphasized in all of his works. It deals with American ideas and progressiveness in the land of India. This point alone will give the production a widespread appeal to all Americans. Furthermore, the story carries plenty of action, inter spersed here and there with appeal American ways which gives the story it's spice and comedy.

DELIGHTFUL STORY IS "UNCLAiMED GOODS,v NEW VIVIAN MARTIN PICTURE,

To be sent to a distant point by exupress and to remain unclaimed by the consignee, is a romantic ex perience few are privileged to enjoy if, indeed, it may be termed real enjoyment. This is the chief incl dent upon which the story of "Un. claimed Goods" the new Paramount vehicle for Vivian Martin, has been based by Johnston McCulley, and which was picturized by Gardnesr Hunting.
 Miss Martin will be seen as Betsy Burke, daughter of Western Sher- if, who is forwarded by express to a mining town where she hopes to be claimed by her uncle. The town is in the hands of thugs, however, and with other respectable citizens. the girls uncle is under lock and key pending the completion of hte rascally~ operations of the> bandits. The leader of the band falls in love with Betsy and he resolves to buy her at auction as an unclaimed ex press consignment. How he is frus- trated and Betsy released are devel- opments that combine to make a thoroughly enjoyable series of incl dents, which cannot fail to enter tain and amuse all film patrons.
 Miss Martin is excellently support ed in this charming photoplay, which is to be displayed at the Coliseum Theatre for tonight only. Aside from it's novelty as a thrilling story Of the West, the photoplay is of a high order of excellence.
