Reliance August 7, 1915 UllllllllllGUIiHIIlIllilllNIIUIIM^ Irene Hunt Solves a Jewel Mystery Also Featuring Charles West CAST Reinhart Eric von Ritzau Du Boise Charles West Amy Irene Hunt John Lubo Dark Cloud An Indian Eagle Eye The Clerk Philip Gastroack REINHART, senior member of the jewelry firm of Reinhart and Du Boise, is found murdered in the store. Suspicion attaches to Du Boise, as the partners' relations had been strained of late, and Reinhart had forced his daughter, Amy, to break her engagement to Du Boise. Circumstantial evidence is against the young man. Amy, however, believes him innocent. She observes that a case of turquoises has been robbed, and also notices a quantity of coarse, black hair, evidently torn from the head of the murderer, lying near the right hand of the dead man. The hair apparently is that of a Mexican or Indian. Amy learns that the turquoise mine, owned by both the partners, had been taken over from New Mexican Indians, not without some friction. A clerk testifies that on the day of the murder, a well-dressed "Spaniard" had visited the store and bought a few small turqtioises. The girl enlists the cooperation of the sheriff, and they go, with a posse, to the mine. There the Indians are surprised in the midst of tribal ceremonies, in which the stolen turquoise plays an important part. Lubo, their leader, in attempting to escape, is mortally wounded. Dying, he confesses to Amy that he murdered Reinhart. Amy reaches the court-room just in time to present Lubo's written confession, which saves her lover from the chair. ll|!llll!ll|l!iillllillllllllllllllllllllllllllllllillllllllH FATHER LOVE Komic One Reel August 8, 1915 UlllllllllllilllliMIIIIIIIIWIIIIIIIIIIIIIi™ Featuring Fay Tincher in a Villainous Part CAST Fay, a chauffeur ...Fay Tincher Archibald Frank Darien Flunkey Chester Withey Frances, Archibald's wife Olga Gray ARCHIBALD'S wife, Frances, has acquired the club habit.
