Dog was tearing the pants promised their total destruction. There would not be enough left for Rusty to darn and don, so that he might wear the remnants as the script dictated.

 There were several more scenes to be shot with MT. Lee in his oyeraHs and, the question arose as to where we were going to secure a pair for him that would be duplicates of his own.

Bridgeport is to be privileged soon to see one of the greatest well as one of the most satisfying film spec tacles ever put on the screen in Deception" the story of Henry the Eighth of England, and the romance of his second marriage with Anne Boleyn.
 True to the history of the times the story intrigues the interest even m ore than fiction. Beautifully stag vivid one, and proves that truth is not only stranger than fiction but much more interesting
 The long run in New York of ''De- ception" would seem to insure it's popularity here.
 The Story.
 Anne Boleyn, daughter of Sir Thomas Boleyn and niece of Duke of dence of King Henry VIII, returns to England from France in 1532 to ac- cept a place as lady-in-waiting to Queen Catherine. She is young, beautiful and ambitious and on her arrival is cordially greeted by Henry Norris, a knight, who loves her de- votedly and whose love she returns.
 Installed at Hampton Court, of King Henry and with the aid of Norfolk, he seeks to make her his mistress. Anne resists him vigorous ly and thereby stimulates the mon arch's passion for her.
 Cardinal Wolsey opposes the kings design, whereupon Henry sends messenger to Rome to obtain the legalization of his divorce from Cath crime in order that he might marry Anne. This effort fails, whereupon Henry who has secretly married Anne, breaks with the Church of Rome. His marriage with Anne is declared valid and that with Gather inc nullified.
 Gay times ensue in which Anne, who now loves Henry devotedly, is the central figure. But the fickle Henry, tiring of Anne, turns his eyes to her pretty lady-in-waiting, Jane Seymour (Anne of C1eves). At a spring festival. the king quits Anne and meeting a dancing girl, walks with her in a secluded part of the

 Anne gives birth to a daughter and when the king hears the news, he is enraged. He orders the crowd 1 that gathers without to hear the tid- ings to be driven away with whips and treats Anne with studied cruelty Jane Seymour. Fighting for her throne, Anne begs Jane on her knees to give up the king, but meets with a repulSe.
 Henry drinks heavily and at banquet, Smeton, the singer. inti- mates that the queen is favoring a certain noble knight Henry is en- ragged and Norris. who is the knight in question, throws Smeton down a flight of stairs. When Smeton re- peats his charge against the queen, Henry sends him to the Tower.
 King Henry arranges a tournament at which Norris is to enter the lists and Anne, unexpected by the mon arch, comes to the royal box. Norris is unseated and severely injured. When his visor is raised, Anne, who starts back with a cry of horror, thus conf1r ming the suspicious of the king By his order the queen is arrested by Sir William Kingston and conveyed to the Tower. The case against her is placed in the hands of her uncle, Norfolk, who selfishly turns upon her, when she pleads with him to save her honor
 Norfolk puts Smeton to torture and wrings from him a signed confession that he had been the queens lover Norris, staggering to the witness stand to testify to the innocence of Anne, dies before he can utter word. The Peers pronounce her guilty and sentence her to death. Anne goes to the scaffold in the Tower Yard while Henry VIII leads Jane Seymour, under the name of Anne of Gloves, to the marriage altar.

LONDON, Feb. 20.-The newspapers
generally consider the result of the
by-election in Cardigan, Wales. Satur-
day, when Captain Ernest Evans, Coali-
tion Liberal, who was supported by

elected TO the House Of Commons over

which shrinks from them.

as We're free harvested an even

'If the Prime Minister'S supporters
