The orchestra was playing q soft
intermezzo, and of sudden the
lights went down in the house,
hushed to silence as the curtain
went slowly up upon the second act.
There was a shifting of chairs to
distribute the view, tense moment
of silence as the chorus came down
a rocky defile and then-a white
pencil of flame shot out from the
royal box and sharp crash of a
pistol report.
"My God!" gasped Mr.. Harrington,
and staggered back.
There was loud babble of voices,
a stentorian voice from the back of
the stalls shouted, House lights
quick!" The curtain fell as the
house was bathed in the sudden
glare of lights.
T. B. saw the flash and leapt for
the side aisle: two steps and he was
at the door which led to the royal
box. It was empty. He passed
quickly thru the retiring room.
empty also, but the private entrance
giving on to the street was open and
the fog was drifting thru in great
wreaths.
He stepped out into the street and
blew a shrill whistle. Instantly from
the gloom came a plain clothes po-
liceman-No, he had seen nobody
pass. r. B. went back to the the
alter, raced round to the box oppo-

"Where is Mr.. Farrington?" he
asked, quickly.
He addressed his remark to Pol
tavo.
"He is gone" said the other, with
shrug.
HE was here when the pistol was
fired-at this box, my friend, as the
bullet will testify" He pointed to
the mark on the enameled panel be-
hind. when the lights came he had
gone-that is all"
HE can't have gone" said T. B.

A cry from the girl stopped him.
She was white and shaking.
Arrest she gasped, ION what

"On a charge of being concerned
with one Gorth in burglary at the

"Gorth!" cried the girl, vehement

"HiddCtn Trails"

Tho salaries of motion picture stars are not the only reason that makes the producing of motion pic lures the expensive job it is today. Another big item of expenditure in making a photoplay. and especially a fifteen-chaptered serial, is the cost of the properties and sets, that are sometimes completely destroyed just to furnish realism and effect for one scene in an sntire picture.
 A good example of this comes in the form of Q publicity note from the Vitagraph studios in California where the serial, Hidden Dangers" starr ing Joe Ryan and Jean Paige and now being shown Saturday at the lyric theatre, was made. Tn one scene during the fifth episode of this serial two complete bedroom suites and the sets had to be used for a bit of action lasting not longer than about 20 minutes.

crew and sets sail. All goes well until the good ship gets near the Clashing Islands which is a bunCha little rocky islands that floats around pumping into each other just for fun. Jason cant get the combination of the bumps, so he' sends a lil dove through the islands and follows bir- die. which makes the( ship come out safe.
 Then Jason and his crew lands on the place where the sheep with the golden fleece, and maybe fleas. too is guarded with dragon that neve~ sleeps. The king of this sheep range is Aetes, who don't take much stock in Jason. But Jason is wise, SC he starts buzZing around Medea. the kings daughter, who is sort O. clairvoyant, sorderess and witch This Medea gets such case on Ja- son that she gives him a rabbits foot that will protect him from any dragons or other wild animals that her pa may sic on him.
 Jason had to lick seven thousand armed soldiers single-handed before he got to tie dragon and then he hypnotized the dragon to sleep and swiped the woody with the golden overcoat Ala the time the king is watching so surprised at Jason net getting chewed up or killed that bp can't hardly move. He thinks Jason is a sort of super-man but that aint it. because the only reason Jase gets by is because he has the rabbits foot Me3ea gave him.
 When Jason starts back home he takes the golden fleece and also the beautiful but foxy Medea, who went stay behind. The king don't mind losing the sh15p because he figures he can get any old sheep and paint him yellow and nobody will know but what he's the original 14-karat ba-ba, but he does object to the fresh Jason taking his daughter away, too So King Tetes organized a posae ana starts after them.
 And this is where the orful part comes in: to slow up this here posse Medea, who is really cold-blooded mercenary party, tsars her little brother into chunks and throws the pieces along the road so that every time the posse comes to one they slows up. and in that way Jason and Medea and the woolly-wcolly escapes and Jason goes back to his kingdom. takes the throne and is proclaimed a real hero in addition to being 6 king.
 Nobody ever found out what ever became of the sheep with inc ex- pensive wool, but mosta us old his torians figgers he was probably made into mutton chops for Jason and Me dea's inaugural dinner.
 MORAL: Any guy wot would fight dragons and armies for lousy little sheep deserves to get hard boiled dame hitched onto him.

No. 12-Jason the Sheep-Stealer

Once back in them G eek mythol- ogy days there lives handsome young bloke named Jason who was a sort of prince. His uncle Pelias, a half-baked old sport, had been ap- pointed straw-king to hold dCwn the throne until Jason was old Enough to execute shoulder-arms and parade-rest with the scepter.
 But Old Pelias sorta liked the joh of being king because it didn't carry no early hours or hard labor, so when Jason becomes old enough to vote the straight Olympus ticket this rough uncle, Pelias. figgers he'll refuse to give up the crown to the kid. But Pelias is a shrewd old cuss and knows it wont do him no good with the hoi-polloi to just naturally hang onto the throne so he figgers up nich little plot to get Jason un- der the daisies without himself be- ing suspected by the county attor- ney.
 So he calls Jason in one day and says "Jase, by all the laws of eve lution and priority this here throne @elongs to you. However, young IeA6r me ldu, DelH d uOihl uhC4c' just got to thinking that maybe you'd like to be proclaimed king with a lotta cheers and brass-bands and lit tie kids throwing buttercups in your path instead of just having com mon inauguration.
 Such bein' the case, Jas'e, why don't you make yourself bloomin' 'ero by doin' somethin' real spiffy?'
 "Fine, unc." says Jase, q always had ambitions toward bein' hero. But wot can I do to get the rep of bein' hero?'
 That's ieasy. bo." says King Peli- as. "The best little hero stunt l could think of would be for you to paddle across the Hellespont and get hold of a celebrated sheep wot has golden fleece and bring it home"
 Easy" grins Jason, I'll go down now an get some flea-powder"
 ''Wot for d'yuh want flea pcwder?" growls Pelias.

"The Prince Chap"
 When five grown neu-arIfsts- start out to mother as well as father a small orphan child and Christmas comes around. you would expect them to spread themselves bit. But not even the widest dreams of the little protegee suspected what was in store for her, according to the gay Christ mas morning scene in The Prince Chap" the photoplay attraction at the Central theater today and Eagle theater Sunday and Monday. It is a William De Mile production.
 The scenes are laid in the bOhem- ian artists colony in Soho, London, and center around the quest TOT rame and fortune of one William Peyton sculptor. How the little girl who be- comes his ward .upon the death of her mother, model, spolls une bud ding romance for him and then, when she has grown into womanhood, brings about another forms the ap- pealing plot of the story.
 Thomas Meighan has the role of the hero, and Lila Lee, Theodore Kos loff Charles Ogle, Casson Ferguson.

The manner in which these situations

The manner in which these situations are knitted together in a series of climaxes with a grand climax at the end makes a story that holds the, in- terest throughout the picture.
 It is sprinkled with humor which gives just the necessary amount of relief from the diabolical plots hatch ed by the Germans, so well and real istically played by the actors in whose hands is left the portraying of the agents of now dethroned mon- arch.
