 Being a modern mother. she was business first and pleasure afterwards. : So she grabbed Rollin by the wide part of his trousers and laid some good smart whacks on the same place.

As Alec raised his hand to the shelf. that evidently acted as a sort of switch for the moving wall she was staring over the shoulders of Red Larkin and Willie Aims. With Ballin, she was equally sur brised as the side of the room disap- peared, and with the man she gazed cpon the interior of another of the gangs se- cret chambers.
 The place was larger than the store room by something like ten feet each way, big square barn of a room, fur nished much as the room up in River dalc was furnished, big table in the center, dozen chairs and against the op- posite wall Frances saw a long chest of scme kind painted a queer. dull blue with black figures on it that looked like Chi nese writing. For moments, though she could not explain why, this secret chest seemed to hold her attention to the elini- nation of all else. She stared at 1t in fascinated curiosity that was not un- mixed with certain vague fear.
 As the wall reached the level of the floor the men directly m front of Frances moved toward the center of the room, crowding past Balin and leaving him, for just the faintest moment, separated and little behind the others. In that instant Ballin moved with tightening light rapidity. One arm shot out and Frances saw the glint of metal.

LAST PERFORMANCE .OF THE WANDERER"
Great Biblical Drama Plays At Jefferson Matinee
 and Night

The story of "The Wanderer" which three days beginning Thursday, Feb ruary 19th Matinee Saturday is said to follow closely the Biblical lines as recorded in St. Luke, chapter 15. The opening scene of the play shows the pastoral home of Jesse, the patriarch, and father of Jether, the prodigal son.
 Here amidst the sunlit hills of Heb ron amid plentitude, Jether spends his youth, feeding his fathers flocks. But one day he falls in with Tola, ne'er- do-wen who fires his imagination with tales of the wonders of the city of Jerusalem. Tola persuades Jether to demand his portion of his father so that he may venture forth into the world in search of fame and fortune, Jether obtains his patrimony with the help of his mother. who, with wom-
 ans intuition senses danger for her boy as he relates his plans, T fear the
 city" she tells him, but more than
 all, l fear the women of the city"
 St. Luke says tersely, that the prodi- gal son took his journey into far country and there wasted his substance with riotous living" From this meagre description, Playwright Samuels and Stage Director Belasco have builded second act for "The Wanderer," which is said to surpass for Oriental magnifi- 1 eence and. gorgeous coloring and lavish costuming anything ever shown on the stage before.
 The spectcble represents gilded pal ace of pleasure in Jerusalem in the days of King Solomon, the Wise. It Is here the prodigal son "wastes his sub stance in riotous living" becomes en- amored of a Babylonian siren, whe strips him even of his clothes The last act brings the prodigal son back to the home of his father, where for giVeness awaits him.
