sBLIND GODDESS AT CAPITOL

Justice as it is dispensed in the criminal courts, comes in for a sound spanking, and the reliability of circumstantial evidence receives Ia knockout blow in Victor Elem .ing's Paramount photoplay, The Blind Goddess" which is now show ing at the Capitol today and Wed- nesday.
 This photoplay version of Arthur Trains famous novel of the same name is strong dramatic vehicle with murder mystery for it's plot basis and with kaleidoscopic New ! ork for its locale. The romance of young love, the pathos of self sacrificing mother-love, the sinister side of politics, the smart social at mosphere of Fifth avenue, the blum dering efforts of the law, symbolized by 'the blind goddess of these elements in the story that grips with interest, stirs the emotions and serves 10 provide an hour of rare en- tertainmont. Paramount has pro1id- ed q cast whose individual per formanCes and collective acting en- phasize and intensity the emotional power and dramatic sweep of the story.

AT THE LYCEUNI

'The Nolga Boatman," the famous Cecil DeMille production now show ng at the Lyceum, continues as treat drawing card as 1t was Sun lay night when several hundred we're turned away to wait for the econd showing. William Boyd as the 'oatman-revolutionary leader, and alinor Fair as the princess, do some 'emarkably fine acting, backed by cast of more than usual merit. The eillaging of the homes of the rich sy the war-mad peasants, the indig- aities heaped upon them, the clash f the red and white armies, and the itrange love affair of the royal princess and the nameless Volga ooatman make a powerful theme.
 "The Volga Boatman" is all that aas been claimed for it for it is a picture with soul, with real drama tnd an extraordinary punch. The plot is highly dramatic and worked put with delicate melodrama which reaches a high point when the princess, mistaken for a common woman, is turned over to the white army soldiers for their amusement on order of the man to whom she was engaged. Her rescue by the Volga boatman and her saving his life from the firing squad are othsl high points.
 A Harold Lloyd comedy Among Those Present" also is on the bill.

NOLO PLEAS MADE
 IN NACKINAC CASE
Providence Steamship Explosion
 Trial Ends Today

Rome, May 25 (P - Captain George W. McVay and Chief En- gineer John A. Grant, charged with manslaughter, and Agent George J. Kelley of the steamship company, | charged with being accessory before the fact, all pleaded nolo in superior court this morning to the indict- ment returned against them as a re- suit of the explosion on the Steam CT Mackinacs boiler taking a toll of 55 lives in Newport harbor August Is last.
 This action was taken by the de- fendants after lengthy conferences of counsel. The trial opened May 17 and the prosecution was to have gone on with its case this morning.
 Judge Charles 4, Walsh continued the cases for one week for sentence, the defendants being held in $15.- GOO bonds each. the same amount of bail fixed when they pleaded not guilty to the indictments on October 13 last.

of the work falls to the lot of Ed ward Lattimer. playing the part of Marty German, brother to the spit fire, and Dorothy Russell Lord. his wife. Since this is comedy drama. It's strength is in it's comedy and it Is these two who not only have most of the dialogue but also provide most of the comedy. Marty is a $35 week cigar store clerk with a vii yid imagination and an unconquer- able realization of his own brain power which he does not hesitate to air at every possibility. Also, he is past master in slang. His wife acts as his balance wheel and the ensuing domestic arguments are rich.
 Edmund Abbey as the father of the young man who has eloped, is his usual admirable self and Edna Earl Andrews, the aristrocratic mother, acts the part of the human iceberg to perfection. Little Elaine Temple also has a good part, a sort of Yillainous role in which she is paired off with Walter Scott Weeks. Jay Ray and Cornelius Feeley have minor parts.
 The play is in three acts and four scenes and except that bit of the dialogue in the last act could be cut down as a time saver. the show is in every way up to the usual high standard, and well worth seeing. It provides a good evenings entertain ment.

first act not sign of applause was
audiable. The second act passed amid
