MURRETTE.
Among the most interesting and
pretentious scenes in Realart's pro-
duction of Such a Little Queen,
which is this weeks feature picture
at he Murrette Theatre, is one in the
palace courtyard, when the Queen or
the petty European kingdom inspects
her royal guard.
Constance Binney, the diminuuve
Realart star, playing the title role, is
seen in the uniform of colonel OF
/ the royal regiment. AS the troops
march into the courtyard for inspec-
| ton, the tiny queen, with her uniform
! blazing with military decorations,
emerges from the palace, and inspects
each trooper.
The decorations worn by the little
| Queen are genuine decorations be
! slowed at one time and another upon
various persons by various monarchs
of old Europe, in the days when mon
archs were more in vogue than they
/ are now in the Old World. These
decorations have become the property
of New York collector of antique
| jewels and art objects and were Dor
rowed for Miss Binney's use in this
picture.

who has shown himself for over twen-
ty years PROOF against the little gods
arrows, has now definitely announced
his approaching marriage with Miss
Hatty Doran, the fascinating daughter
of a California millionaire. Miss Dor
an, whose graceful figure and striking
face attracted much attention at the
Westbury House festivities. is an only
child, and it is currently reported that
her dowry will run to considerably
over the six figures, with expectancies
for the future. AS it is an open secret
that the Duke of Balmoral has been
compelled to sell his pictures within
the last few years, and as Lord st.
Simon has no property of his own,
save the small estate of Birchmoor,
it is obvious that the Californian heir
ess~ is not the only gamer by an
alliance which will enable her to make
the easy and common transition from
a Republican lady to a British
peress.
Anything else?" asked Holmes,
yawning.
"Oh. yes; plenty. Then there is an
other note in The Morning Post to
say that the marriage would be an
absolutely quiet one, that it would be
at ST. Georges, Hanoevr Square, that
| only half a dozen intimate friends
would be invited, and that the party
would return to the furnished house
| at Lancaster Gate which has been
taken by Mr.. Aloysius Doran. Two
| days later-that is, on Wednesday last
there is curt announcement thai
| the wedding had taken place, and that
the honeymoon would be passed a

PART ONE 7
The Lord St. Simon marriage, and
its curious termination, have long
ceased to be a subject of interest in !
those exalted circles IN which the I'M
fortunate bridegroom moves. Fresh
scandals have eclipsed it, and their
more piquant details have drawn the
gossips away from this four-year-old
drama. AS / have reason to believe,
however, that the full facts have never
been revealed to the general public,
and as my friend Sherlock Holmes
had a considerable share in clearing
the matter up, l feel that no memoir
of him would be complete without
some little sketch of this remarkable
episode.
1t was a few weeks before my own
marriage, during the days when II
was still sharing rooms with Holmes
in Baker street, that he came home
from an afternoon stroll to find a
letter on the table waiting for him.

the weather had taken a sudden turn

myself with a cloud of newspapers,

of the day, I tossed them all aside

issue with that form Of evangelism, for
it is not a message of hope and glad
tidings, and therefore is not the evan
gel at all, it is a form of revivalism.
How They Work.
when the professional revivalist
arrives the first thing he does is to-
turn everything up side down. No
body has any religion, everything is
wrong. The professional revivalist as
a rule has a congregational book to
sell. The standard hymns are not
racy enough. he must be extravagant
and wild in his preaching, nobody has
any religion. He tells a good many
very affecting stories, he must threat
en- he tries to scare people.
The real evangelistic appeal is the
one that you would expect Jesus to
make TO men. Who would expect that
Jesus would surround himself with
some of the conditions we have seen
in some forms of revivalism. That he
would in any way play upon the emo
tons of a seeker after truth. Hear
the straight forward evangelism of
Jesus, he made obedience to the will
of God the test, he presented love to
God, and love to men as the test.
Not True Evangelism
1.-The revival motive held for be-
coming a Christian is not a worthy
one, il is not worthy of God and l
am sure that it is not worthy of man.
II is not the motive of true evangel-
ism. The main theme of the profess
sional revivalist is, Be a Christion so
that you can get to heaven. But the
evangelism of Jesus is, Be Christian
I'LL ~ 1,. ,r,Ar hA
heavenly life. Revivalism says re-
pent. but evangelism is more concern
ed about driving hell from this world,
in getting hell out of men-the hell
of greed, and selfishness, and sin.
Let US do away with lot of the
trappings of evangelism that accom-.
pany the typical revival, such as &c.
centric preaching, often by men who
could not occupy pulpit at all; rag
time singing, raising your hands and
voting religion, standing up and sit.

saint or a sinner; the recital of death
