CAPTAIN KID LIVED ON
CROOKEDEST N. Y. STREET

New York, August 2---Captain KID
the worlds favorite pirate, was not
nearly so bad as heg has been painted.
At one time he was citizen of
New York city and hved---appropri-
ately enough, maybe---in Pearl street,
the crookedest in the city.
Arthur Bushnell Hart. the histor-
ian, writing ON 1.-THE Real Captain
Kid in the August Mentor Magazine
thus corrects the popular conception
Of the small boys idol. A page of the
evidence that hanged the redoubtable
captain is reproduced---an inventory
of some of the loot he buried on
IGardiner's Island. This was the only
treasure supposed to have been buried
by the celebrated pirate that has ever
BEEN discovered.

The prospect of a visit in Japan

OFF THE WORLD? THEN
HERE'S A JOB FOR YOU

New York, August 2.---If you're
"off the world" get job in the
lighthouse service.
This is the advice of a writer in
the August Mentor Magazine who
gives, an insight into the lives of
Uncle Sans sentinels Of the sea.
Many light keepers have .gone
mad because of the lonliness. but life
i'm ALL of the lighthouses is not SO
bad. On the mainland the keepers
have their families near them.
There are 1924 lighthouses along
1865 miles of American coast. The
most dangerous lighthouse in the
world is on Wolf Island, England.
Seas heavy enough to sweep away
three tons of supplies wash over 1t
frequently.

"OUT OF THE CHORUS" AT -. j..
THE GRAND WEDNESDAY

One might the crowded audience
OF the Winter Palace Revue missed
the dainty, pretty-faced, high-kicking
member of the chorus in the front
row right. She had said goodbye
to Broadway, and taken up her abode
ON Fifth Avenue as the wife of Ross
Van Beekman of The Van Beekman's.
From that moment to the last
flicker of the film you have a story
of swift action, mystery, and thrill
ing drama. "Out of the Chorus is
the most powerful vehicle which
Alice Brady has yet starred, and will
be shown together with "Playmates'
a riotious comedy in two parts at
the Grand theater, Wednesday and
Thursday.

industrial king, has extended his OPP
