A deep mystery and a profound love confuse the lives of four people in Pauline Frederick‘s Latwt picture, ‘‘The Paliser Case,‘‘ coming to the New Empire Friday and Saturday of this week. ‘Phe story of this thrilling melodrama may briefly be outlined as follows :â€"Angelo Caro ( Janmes Neil,) an old violinist of Portugal, ‘has a beautiful â€" daughter, Cassy, (Pauline| Frederick), . who has inherited â€" his musical ability. She has a. remarkâ€"| able singing voice. Her teacher, Mms. Tambourina_(Carrie Lee Ward) | is wholly unscrupilous,â€"and when she learns that her spirited and beautiful pupil is desired by the rich Monty Paliser she creates several situations inâ€"order to help the plans of the deâ€" singning young man. ‘Cassy, however has fallen in love with another young man, whom she believes though is enâ€" gaged to another young lady. When| l‘Cassy and her father can no longer ‘pay their bills, the girl accepts Monty Paliser‘s offer of marriage.‘ At the wedding she notices that the ‘‘ministâ€" er‘‘ has a thumb missing on one hand, and later she notes that Palisser‘s gardener has theâ€"same mark. This suggests to her that theâ€"marriage was a mock one. She carries her story to the other young man, who then and later threatens toâ€" kill Paliser. Then Paliser is really killed, and suspicion. naturally falls on the young man.. To save him, Cassy says she did the little érime all by her lonesome. But her father goes her one hetter by confessâ€" |ing he did it himself, and he has the (factsâ€"to hack his case.‘ He then very | conveniently dies from heart failure, and. all the others in ~the drama who avere good are happy forever thereâ€" after. es y ‘Last Wednesday evening Thomas Hines, aâ€"farmer living near New Liskâ€" eard, committed, suicide by hanging lnmself in his barn.
