us bather a baby has arreved only to
-eeeive word the old man is bringing
the money in place of sendlrg it.
This is the starting point of a 1 tbc
rouble, he gets out of one mixup in
o another, which is highly amusing.
The Crystal Ball, a Warner feature,
in three parts, is a facinating story of
in occult demonstration that resulted
in the arrest of an amateur thief.
This drama is played by’a large com- i
•any, with beautiful costumes an 1 j
'ettings. The plot is refreshingly
iew and the story never drags an in
; -dant. $3,000 Dead or Alive, is a

TO THE ATLANTIC COAST
The freight steamer Meteor, of
the Pacific Coast Steamship com
pany ‘s fleet was in port last night

general merchandise, the biggest car
go thus far this year, on board. In
the return of the vessel to Seattle,
she will bo turned over to the Amcri
•an-Hawaiian Steamship company on
charter. That company will operate
her on the Atlantic, probably to
Europe. The old collier Montara form
erly on ;lns run is now in that serv
ice .and the demand for freighters on
the Atlantic is such that bottoms will
probably be short on the Pacific frv
