bic gambling house. and Helene, her
daughter, have been handled most
artistically. Double exposures were
necessary TO show Miss Ferguson
simultaneously as mother and daugh-
ter, but the illusion is most perfect
and at times exceptionally effective.
Miss Ferguson is first shown as
Chichita, the daughter OF Spanish
gambler who is killed in quarrel.
She becomes the associate of a
wastrel Of good family, and after he
commits suicide because of his gam
bling losses, Chicita places her in.
FAINT in n convent, weds a gambler.

pair open a fashionable gambling re
sort.
Helene. the child. escapes from the
convent after Is years and finds her
way 10 New York. where she marries
Price Ruyler. novelist. During the
honeymoon the gambling instinct
which she has inherited asserts itself.
This paves the way for n series of
exciting events in which n supposed
murder and the meeting of mother
and daughter are the most promi-
nent
Especially noticeable Is the beau
tiful costuning of the three charac-
ters played by Miss Ferguson.

CAUSED A SLAUGHTEE
AtAssociated Pressl

Bristol, Pa, April LA number of
persons, reports say ranging from ten
to forty, were drowned yesterday
when the scafford at the Merchant
Shipbuilding Company's yard here
collapsed during the launching of a

About $50 persons, workmen and
spectators, were on the scafford, many
of whom were thrown into the Della
ware river when the structure col
lapsed.
A majority of the victims are be-
lieved to have been workers at the
Merchant plant, the police say. The
tide may carry the bodies some dis
tance down the river, and it may be
several days before it is possible to
determine the number of dead. The
police and others are dragging the
