The prisoners escape on |a stolen engine and Garry after a [ thrin Ing fight rescues the warden just in time to escape -a collision' with another engine, which is one of the big thrills of the picture.. For this he is pardoned and on Chris:- mas Evb justifies his mother's faith by returning to her and the faithful | | "What's Wrong With the Women." That sparkling dynamo of ever- changing emotions--modern Woman --is revealed in all her strength and eakness by Daniel Carson Good- | man's unusual yphotop! "Whai's WwW rong With the Women f {the first time last eve ng at the [Allen Theatre. It is a big _thome upon which this powerful dramatic | subject ds founded, It deals not | merely with individuals.

There is also a very 'funny comely, | "Punch the Clock,' * Pathe News, {10th episode of "Robinson Crusoe," and other reels of quality complste this splendid programme. Just the usual prices. A drama that moves with the refreshing sweep of a strong wind through tall timberswes revealed for the first time at the Strand Theatre last night, when "Colleen of the Pines," starring Jane Novak, was thrown upon the screen. The delicate blonde beauty of the star, her superb handling of the big scenes and the excellent sup- port of the cast, all contributed tc- ward the success of the production. The nobility of self-sacrifice is the theme. As the elder sister, Miss No- vak takes upon her own slender shoulders the burden of a mistake | committed by her younger sister. | The father is a religious bigot whosa family has been brought up under the most rigid regulations. . They form an interesting group of charac- ters, Rjowever, out of whose lives a strong drama has been woven.

The schooner Katie Eccles, own- ed by Captain Harry Mitchell, Ports- mouth is still drifting in Lake On- tario at the mercy of the waves. Captain Mitchell, when speaking to Captain John Donnelly of the Don- telly Salvage and Wrecking com- pany, on Thursday evening from Belleville, stated that during the heavy gale on .Sunday evening the rudder was torn off the schooner and he and the two members of the crew were drifting at the mercy 'of the storm- for some time. When the schooner came close to the shore of Timber Island he threw out his an- chors and he remained at anchor uu- til Wednesday night when the 'gale was so heavy that the anchors would He was able to get the crew off the vessel and then allowed the schooner to go adrift. When he left the Eccles hie said that she was not taking water, and he thinks that unless she founders out in the lake there is a chance that 'she will go ashore on. Amherst Island The Schuster coal company of Belle- ville, to whom the coal was consign- él] have hopes that the cargo may be saved. On Friday morning, when in com- munication with Amherst Island by in, schooner was in such a position that it was Impossible to get any of the coal at present and there is no chance whatever of salvaging the schooner as she has broken her back. The coal will be turned over to the un- derwriters association. It is expect- ed that an endeavor will be made to sa e the coal as soon ag there is mild weather. The Steamer Malton. The Donnelly company had a very difficult task in releasing the steam- er Malton, which went ashore at Charity Shoal two weeks ago. It re- quired both the steamers Frontenac and Cornwall to get her free. Hydraulic jacks with one hundred tons capacity "were brought into ser- vice. The steamer arrived in King- ston under her own steam and will go into the Collingwood Shipbuilding Company drydock for examination." On Friday morning the tug 'Front- enac and the lighter Harry D, left for Walipoos Island to try to re- lease the schooner Lyman Davis, which went ashore on Sunday night. It will be necessary to take off m gt of the coal before any pulling opera- tions can be commenced. Thinks Eccies Is Sunk. A despatch from Belleville says : "The Katie Eccles is probably sunk by this time," said Capt. Mitchell, of the schooner, who arrived here to- day from Timber Island, He and his crew abandoned -the-oeal laden ves- sel Wedni y because she was drag- ging at anchor, They spent Wednes- day and Thursday in a brush tent, which they built on the island.
