If we are to believe advance re- ports, it, 'The Clutching Claw. which comes to Parsons' theater this Friday and Saturday nights and . Saturday matinee. will furnish album dant thrills and delightful little spine shivers for the theatergoers or this city.
 It h . mystery show and is said to differ very materially from the gen. eral output of this type of attraction seen in recent yeas. Spiritualism. comedy detectives. criminologists, reporters and dope peddlers are . part of th story and all woven te- gether in a plot that is never lack ing in excitement and suspense. There is one big thrill in the show that fs declared to be one of the most hair-raising seen in recent years.
