The Theatres
MI RAY


It is strange in this day of automo-
biles, airplanes and railroad trains TO
see a picture in which none of them
appear Yet "A Guilty Conscience"
which is being shown at the Murray
theater has none of them in it.
The production is ultra-modern and
a society play, but laid in India where
many of our modern necessities have
not been installed. In the picture one
sees horse drawn vehicles, OK carts
and manipulated carriers. Sheep, dogs
and other animals found in India are
introduced in the picture.
The story deals with the adventures
of a young man who in order to send
his wife to the mountains where it
is cool. accepts a position in a fever
infested zone. His employer, having
sent him there that he might die and
thus the employer will be able to
marry the young wife. The story is
very dramatic and furnishes Antonio
Moreno a role in which he is able to
show his great histrionic ability. A
large number of Hindus are used for
atmosphere.
MURRETTE
Bits of Life" the Marshall Neilan
production. which opened an engage
ment at the Murrette theater Sunday
sets a new milestone of progress in
the silent dramatic art.
The outstanding merit however,
lies in the new idea which Marshall
Neilan has injected into motion pic
ture-making. In Bits of Life" he
has combined The efforts of four noted
authors and made one mighty inter
estinS photoplay of it. The stories

die a few months later of apopleXy.
Some time since the purchaser of an
old bureau at a furniture sale in Wilt
shire found more than he expected.
Happening by the merest chance on
secret drawer, he discovered a collec-
ton of pearls and antique gems worth
about $4,000. 1t was surmlsed they
had been hidden there during the
Jacobite scare in 1744 and 1745, the
texture and fabric of the wrappings
leading to this conclusion.
Preferred to Banks.
Even at this DAY many believe that
a hiding place of their own devising
for their jewelry is more secure than a
guaranteed safe or bankers strong
room. The majority of society women

which are divided into episodes. are
taken from THE Bad Samaritan" by
Thomas McMorrow: "The Man Who
Heard Everything" by Waletr Trum
bull; Hop" by Hugh Wiley, and 1.-The
Strange Adventure" by Marshall Nei
Ian. And each of these stories is clev
erly linked up by one main theme Mr.
Neilan has accomplished what to other
producers seemed impossible. And he
has achieved a real triumph in doing
so.
Melodrama, comedy, satire and farce
are ingenuously pieced together to pro
vide an entertainment which is packed
with interest from beginning to end
Lon CLANCY gives a magnificent
characterization as a Chinaman in the
episode based on Hop 1t is indeed
one of his finest contributions to the

LONG LOST JEWELS

(From the New York SUM

(From the New York SUM
There is no necessity for any secrecy
nof if the builders at present tearing
down and rearranging the interior or
a house in an arsitocratic quarter IN
London come upon a wealth of jewels
and jewelry. They who were init
mately concerned in the piquant affair
have long ago gone to dust. Their de-
scendants, however, are keeping
close eye on developments. Some time
ago this mansion was bought by war
profiteer, after having been the town
house of a landed family for many gen
erations.
Somewhere within the walls OF a
