Mrs. lynda

Rather a bad few minutes were
spent by Mrs. S. lynda, of the Zyn-
da Hotel, yesterday when the cleo
tricity was shut off for about half
an hour Mrs. lynda was in the
process of operating the elevator in
the lynda Hotel upwards from
the first floor, when suddenly there
was no more power and the eleva-
tor remained stationary between
the first and second floors.
No one was in the lobby at the
time to observe her plight, so Mrs
lynda settled down for nice long
sojourn in the dark elevator.
Mr. lynda, who was downtown
at the time of the incident, noticed
that the lights we're off and rushed
back to the hotel to discover his
wifes situation. He hurried to the
basement and laboriously turned
the motor over by hand enough to
get the elevator and his wife to
the second floor.

In SHOW Them No Mercy!" which
opens at the Capitol Theatre, pro-

Violence, intense emotional drama,

reveals the new underworld terror

The plot of Show Them No Mer-

are all for putting the young cou-
