A NEW chapter in the story of "A hats begins with September. for this month properly ushers in the autumn styles. It's bright, placid days bring out between-seasons milli- nery belonging neither to summer nor to winter, but foreeasting the brilliant end of the year. Milliners agree upon fabrics for making between-seasons hats, choosing those that belong to any time of the year, not the sheer things of midsummer or the heavy, warm-looking winter materials.
 For this particular September they have taken duvetyn, satin, taffeta, materials that resemble hatter's plush and ribbons, and occasionally put with them some plain velvet in making up many lovely hats for fall. Decora- tions include ostrich feathers, wings, feather and ribbon ornaments, but. above all, elaborate embroiderIes In rich shades and narrow ribbons in vivid colors. Brown and tones that harmonize with 1t appear often enough to convince one that among quiet col ors brown will stand with navy at the head of the column of favOrites. Those yellows that make the glory of nasturtiums, and a reddish brown, called rust" are combined with many dark shades in other coiors.
 There are many off-theface shapes in medium-sized hats, and narrow brimsned hats for curly wear. Among the showings wide-brimIned satin or kaffeea hats with dashing unes have

MT sidney is. an American, a semi invalid. old and rich and very de- srous to live. Mrs. Sidney is a snanish woman, dignified and reti- cent. Jed, the butler, acts like nrivileged member of the family. Hartley house is a fine old isolated country place. with a murder story, "haunted pool" and many watch dogs. and an atmosphere of mys- terv. The haunted pool" is where Richard Dobson. son of a former owner of Hartley house, had killed his brother, Arthur Debson. Jed begins operations by locking the doctor in his room the very first night. Doctor John fixes his door SO he can't be locked in. He meets Isobel daughter of the house and falls in love at first sight. In the night he finds the butler drunk and holding Mrs. Sidney by the wrist. He interferes. Mrs. Sidney ex- plains. John buys a revolver.

would be unjust-don't you see it would be unjust?-tO make a point against him of behavior that Mir. Sid ney causes. Please never mention if."
 She was very much in earnest and was not satisfied until she had my promise that l never would speak fo Mir. Sidney of Jed until I had her con sent. She then showed relief. and felt more distressed. Jed had some hold on this resolute lady that should have liked to break.
 Jed's attitude toward me was thing to drive distracted a person who cared what it was. I did not. He could be interesting and then I was interested in him. He could be stupid, and avoided him. He could be surly, and l ignored him. He could be quar- relsome, and I fought him back.
 It seldom was matter of sobriety or iasobriety with him. He was best natured to me at times when he was most intoxicated, He was surliest at times when he was perfectly sober. At other times he quite reversed this. One never knew from his physical condi- tion what his disposition might be at the time.
 He served at dinner when Mrs. Sid ney, Isobel and I, more tremendously than we cared to, diaed. Certain do- nestle ceremonies pleased Mir. Sidney and he liked to know that in some re- spects the baronial character of his place was being maintained as he would have maintained it if he had been active.
 When Jed was in good nature, he frequently sought me out for talks, and when he was i1 good nature, I en- couraged him. I did not want to open up any secrets the house might have, merely to learn what they were, but knew Mrs. Sidney needed help, and thought I might give it if knew how. 1 also thought that Jed some evening when pleasantly and good naturedly drunk and garrulous might say more than he intended. There were many opportunities, but he never did.
 One night-this was in September was walking about the place with the mastiffs at my side. stood while at the edge of the woods looking at the house In it's shadowy bulk 1t seemed fit container of mystery. Only a few windows were Illuminated. It was the river side of the house that was bright at night.
 I walked slowly across the lawn toward the side where Mrs. Sidney's rooms were. A small balcony opened off her sitting room. I could hear her talking to some one on this balcony. The person she was talking to, as l heard in another moment, was Jed. l was then almost under the balcony.
 q am a resolute man," Jed was say ing. 'Fll have my own way. I'll have what I want. I'll make you glad to come to terms. Ina q reasonable man, too. Now, admit that I've been con siderate."
 I started to get out of hearing as quietly and rapidly as I could, but I heard Mrs. Sidney, her voice vibrant with Indignation, say:
 q ought to have you whipped"
 ''That is silly, unreasonable passion" said Jed
 q shall not hesitate to kill you" said Mrs. Sidney.
 Then went out of earshot. The fact that Jed could threaten Mrs. Sid ney in this fashion was inexpllcable. It could not be explained by his serv- iceability So Mr. Sidney, great as that

 An hour later 1 opened ms door in response 10 :. light rap. Mrs. Sidney was there.

PASSIONS PLAYGROUND"
With Katherine Macdonald at Victory
 Theatre

Out of the sanctity of Scottish convent. Mary Grant, through whose veins flowed the blood of her gambler father. is thrown into the glamor of Monte Carlos famous society. This is the central thought of Katherine MaeDonald's latest production, Pas sion's Playground" adapted from the world-famous story. "The Guests of Hercules" by C. N. and A. NJ. Will Hanson. This picture will be shown on the screen of the Victory Theatre Monday and Tuesday.
 Never in Miss MacDonald's career has she been afforded role with the romantic and dramatic possibilities that come to her as the convent girl warned aforehand to beware of the alluring resort and reminded of the memory of ehum who had three years before fled from the convent to become lost in the maze of gambler passions.
 It is in the strange meeting with the mysterious runaway girl that the Messrs. Williamson have provided q climax for their great plot. Pledged to secrecy, Mary Grant takes upon herself the disgrace that accompanied the strange fate of the missing" girl.
 According to Mr. Albert, manager of the Victory, Passions Play ground. will be received with the greatest favor of any production to be shown at his theatre in months. He declares that in none of Miss Mae Donald's successes has she equa'led her remarkable work in this produe- ton, and in no previous effort has her beauty stood forth in such manner Adv.

Notwithstanding there were dogs" in the lunch cart of Fred Franklin, Livery street, Archie Berger took a chance and stole the proprietor's bag of change containing twenty-five dol lars and made clean getaway. He was in possession of the money but a short time, however, as he was arrest ed Tuesday afternoon by Captain Bulger. But during the time which elapsed between the time of the theft Sunday afternoon and the time he was taken into custody Tuesday afternoon Berger said he spent the quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies the bag contained. He bought a second hand dress suit case. flash light and few other things he could not remember also candy, and ice cream Tn whole sale lots. treated friends, and attend ed all of the shows at all of the movie houses By Monday night the money had been distributed among local mer- chants for value received.
 When Berger was arraigned in court Wednesday morning charged with the theft he pleaded guilty He also admitted taking $3l from wo- man who works in the same mill as he does.
 Mr. Franklin told the court that he and Berger were alone in the lunch wagon and that after Berger went out he missed the bag of change which was tucked in between the cash regis ter and the cigar case. He knew Der ger and thought he might return with the money. After 24 hours he noti- fled the police and Berger's arrest and confession followed.
 Berger has previously been convict ed of theft and has been in jail and in reformatory institution. John Me Gall, boss of the room in the mill where Berger works, spoke word in Berger's behalf, saying that Berger

PRINCESS ARRIVES INu. s.
Married Duke of Oporto Following
 Divorce In Putnam

The Princess Bragara of Portugal. widow of the Duke of 0porto, at enc time known as the ten million dollar widow, arrived in Providence, Mon day, from Europe. on her way to New York.
 The Princess was formerly resi- dent of Pomfret. At the time she claimed the nearby town as her legal residence, she was the wife of Philip Van valkenburg of New York. It was in 1911 that she met Van Valken- burg on returning from Europe, and they were married shortly after the boat docked She had been abroad, where she attracted attention by the lavish expenditure of the millions left her by her former husband. William Hays Chapman. She was divorced from Van Valkenburg after n hearing in the supe. .ior court in Putnam in 1914.
 Following her divorce she again ap- peared in Putnam and had her name changed to Chapman, claiming that the German sounding name, Van Val kenburg, made it difficult for her in handling her property abroad.
 Mrs. Chapman married the Duke of Oporto at Rome in 1917. Her hus- band was exiled from Portugal when it became republic, and was broth CT of King Carlos, who was assassin ated. The duke died last February, and it is in connection with the settle ment of the estate that the widow has come to this country.

JUDGE UPHOLDS
 COMMISSIONER
Finds That Mary Reeves of Put. nam Can Not Recover For
 Husbands Death
Death Arose In Course Of, But Not
 Out Of, Employment, Says Court

In a memorandum of decision filed with Clerk F.. NJ. Warner of the su- perior court in this city, Judge Keeler upholds Compensation Commissioner, James ]. Donahue in his decision in the case of Mary A. Reeves against the John A. Dady Corporation of Put nam, that the petitioner may not re- cover compensation for the death of her husband. Mir. Reeves was killed when he fell from the second story of the corporations mill on Bullock street.
 The judges finding says in part.
 It is found that the deeedent, Eu- gene Reeves, was on December 9th, 1919. employed as overseer of the winding room of the respondents silk mill in Putnam.
 On said date Eugene Reeves fell from doorway at the second story of the mill and struck the sidewalk be- low, fracturing his skull. and died within short time.
 It is found that Mir. Reeves had been in good health and had worked steadily and practically without inter ruption for several years. On the morning of December 6. 1919, he ap- peared in good health.
 Shortly before the accident the su- perintendent of the mill had a conver- sation with Mir Reeves and told him about the operation for the removal of adenods which had recently taken place, whereupon the decedent had re- marked. That makes me feel faint" ]" or words to that effect, and then walk ed to the doorway in order to get air.
 Somebody called the superintendent and he turned and walked away and left Mir. Reeves standing near the doorway. MT. Oatley, the superin- tendent, did not see Mr. Reeves fall, but later he found him on the side walk with his skull fractured.
 It is also found that Mir. Reeves was seen standing near the doorway and

worked steadily and was good work CT He said if the young man, who is 2S years old, was given another chance he, Mccall. would take charge of him. He also said he would collect from Bergers' wages sufficient sums to make restitution to the woman and to Mir. Franklin.
 Berger was sentenced to the state reformatory at Cheshire and the exc cution of sentence suspended for six months. He was placed in the hands of Mccall as special probation officer for the ease.

that his hands slipped from the bar which protected the doorway, his knees appeared to give way and he slipped under the bar to the sidewalk below.
 It was found that from the testi- mony taken as whole that the cause of Mir Reeves falling was a sudden faintness which he experienced as the result of hearing the details of the op- eration mentioned and that the faint ness did not arise from anything in any way connected with his employ ment.
 It is therefore found that while the injury resulting in death arose in the course of the decedent's employment. it did not arise out of his employment.
