The suspicions of a jealous wife lead to all kinds of complications, but the surprise ending, that the whole affair was planned by the wife to test her husband's love, settles everything satisfactorily. The comedy was well received. A Bruce Scenic, "The Hope of Adventure," is of more than ordinary interest. Most of the scenes are taken from the top of a moving train and show some beautiful sliots of the Yukon. The Rialto Pictorial contains some interesting pictures of the U. S. Naval destroyers demonstrating a smoke screen. A Mack Sennett comedy, "Fresh from the City," is of the "rough house" variety. Hugo Riesenffld directed the orchestra's overture. "Dance of the Hours," from "La Giocoiida." Alma Uoria, soprano, sang "Star of Mine," and there is a male duet from "La Forza del Destino" on the bill. Capitol Re.x Beach's "Silver Horde" should prove a great attraction for the amateur fisherman, especially at this particular season when the tackle is being polished up for action and Saturday afternoon finds many ni search of bait for the Sunday expedition. The story deals with the salmon fisheries of Alaska and is a splendid picture of its kind. Humperdinck's "Hansel and Gretel" is being revived this week. This number and tlie Larry Semon comedy, "School Days," should appeal especially to the younger patrons of the Capitol.

Broadway "The Fortune Teller," the Robertson-Cole special starring Marjorie Rambcau in the title role, which she created on the stage, is the feature at the Broadway this week and the management has presented it with appropriate features. The most prominent of these is the appearance of Princess WahLet-Ka. billed as "The Cherokee Indian Seeress." The performance had the ring of sincerity when given yesterday afternoon and many of those who put questions to the princess were noticeably impressed. The feature follows right after this act which is in the nature of a prologue. This method of presentation could be copied in other cities where such acts are available. For the overture the orchestra rendered Victor Herbert's "The Fortune Teller," another appropriate number. is drawing well inasmuch as so much prom was given in the first half shown at thi house lait week. The overture is the fa miliar "Zanipa," two vocal nvimbers, a solo, "Tommy Lad," and a duet, "Whispenn^ Hope," surround the news picture. The leaturc is in number six position and "Mother's .\ngel," the second of the Comedyarl pictures, follows and registers very well.
