Tense drama, filed with suspense

highest order, and Miss Stewart
rises TO the occasion with marked
success. Her part Is a difficult one
In that II requires her to register a
secret fear almost constantly, but
so wildly does she register the sub

she has committed a crime. and Is
haunted by the invisible fear" This
fear subsidies as time goes on and
she becomes married. but Il is re.

suits In a dramatic denouement.
Miss Stewart Is surrounded by n
most able cast headed by Walter
| McGrail and Alan Forrest. two of
the best known leading men OF the
screen. Mr.. McCrail has anything
but a pleasant role but his acting is
above criticism.
Gorgeous sets have been provided

fashionable country club and in and
about an imposing mansion.

TERMINAL WORKER
BEATEN ON STREET
George F. Lewis Attacked by
Three Men-Had Been
Threatened.

Three men last night attacked and
severely beat George F. Lewis of 1875
North Carolina avenue southeast
shortly after he had left his work in
one of the repair shops of the Wash
ington Terminal Company.
The attack occurred at the corner
of 9Th and d streets northeast while
Lewis was accompanying Miss Mildred
Mcintyre and her mother to their
home at 651 Maryland avenue north
east. Miss Mcintyre also was slightly
hurt when blow aimed at her escort
went wide and grazed her right
temple.
Fear to Talk.
Fearing a repetition of the assault
if they let out any Of the details,
neither Lewis nor Miss Mcintyre
would give a comprehensive report
of the fracas. 1t was merely learned
that the three were walking along
D street. talking, when the three men
appeared suddenly.
One walked up to Lewis and de-
liberately struck him in the mouth,
telling him with the one blow. An
other of the attackers aimed his blow
a second later, and 1T was this one
that nearly injured Miss Mcintyre.
Before any members Of Lewis party
fully realized what had happened the
men disappeared.
Lewis was SO badly hurt that his
friends had to ask several men who
had been attracted to the scene to
assist him to the office of DR.. Rob-
ert c. Ruedy, 621 Maryland avenue
northeast DR.. Ruedy dressed the in
Jury to Lewis mouth and cut on the
back of his head, sustained when he
struck the pavement. Lewis later re-
turned to his home.
Lewis is said to have incurred the
enmity Of the striking railroad shop
mon by refusing to quit work when
the strike was called. He had been
in the employ of the Washington
man for several years. Threats were
made at that time by some "f his for
mer fellow workers to "get him" at
the first opportunity.
Was Threatened.
Several nights ago, according to
persons living at the same address
.. three men appeared in front OF Lewis
home, apparently waiting for him to
come out. He had already left for
peared when Mrs Lewis went to look
for a policeman.
Il never even saw the man who
struck me-" Lewis said. "It was just
bang. and 1 did not remember any
fthing else until I came to in the doc
tors office. 1 don't want to accuse
! anybody; 1 simply don't know, and
don't want to start any more trouble
by talking too much"
Miss Mcintyre was even less COM
municative. At first she declared she
had seen the men, and later denied
she could even describe them. =,
II just don't want to get mixed up
in this thing any more" she said.
