Pluto appears before the gates of the Infernal Palace, and, sending for his Imp, commands him to bring the Book of Fates. A Mortal then appears upon the scene and Pluto demands him to sign the Book of Fates. The Mortal takes the pen and as he writes upon the book, smoke is seen to arise from the pages, (a fine mysterious effect. ) The Imp then commands the Mortal to enter the gates ot the Infernal Palace, the Mortal refuses and a duel with swords ensues. The Imp succeeds in killing the Mortal, then proceeds to dismember the bodv. First a leg, then an arm, then the head and finally the whole body of the Mortal is thrown through the body of Pluto within the gates. The Imp steps to the foreground of the picture and running toward his Master, Pluto, dives through his body and disappears within the gates. A remarkably fine mysterious picture, creating much amusement to an audience. THE TRAMP AND THE CRAP GAME.. A number of darky boys and street arabs are engaged in a crap game just outside of the back entrance of a theatre. The darkies suddenly give up the game of craps for the purpose of engaging in a southern break down. A grewsome looking W'eary Willy who is seated near-by suddenly siezes the opportunity and rushes in to grab the stakes which have been left lying upon the ground. The entire crowd of arabs pile on poor Weary Willy and proceed to teach him a lesson in etiquette. A policeman suddenly appears on the scene and attempts to arrest the tramp, who makes a very ludicrous escape. PARADE OF AUTOMOBILES. The famous Madison Square Garden forms the background of this excellent picture. A number of very fine automobiles pass in this strip, coming close to the camera and show clear and life size. A very strange coincidence in the closing of the picture is two old ladies who drive by in a dilapidated looking buggy drawn by a long eared mule. This is a remarkable picture, showing up-to-date means of transportation in New York Citv, and the incident of the mule and the two old ladies adds a sufficient amount of humor. DICK CROKER LEAVING TAMMANY HALL. A very lifelike picture of the famous New York politician and Tammany Hall boss. This picture was taken on Sunday morning as he was leaving the 14th Street Wigwam, accompanied by a number of prominent New York politicians. DRILL OF NAVAL CADETS AT NEWPORT. This picture shows the Cadets marching, countermarching and a great many interesting maneuvres. MILITARY SCENES AT NEWPORT, R. I.
