The Isis Continues Talking.
Richard Harding Davis, the greatest
of today's American authors, and a
man whose researches Into criminal
men and their methods have become
wqrldwlde has written a stpry about
"The Disreputable Mr. Raegen." e
It said first that Mr. Raegen is not
wicked, but his being under suspicion
with the New York police has a great
deal to do with the story. When Mr.
Raegen la least Buspectlng it be be
comes the victim of a hardy crook
who, by his deft manipulation, places
an empty pocket book (from which the
roll of bills has been taken) in Mr.
Raegen's coat pocket
The crook gets away with the money
until his crookedness overcomes his
caution and 1 the Inevitable arrest
made. Under suspicion of being the
actual thief Mr. xlaegen suffers arrest,
escapes, etc., end finally takes refuge
In a room wher he receives the sal
vation of his soul by finding a little
child, deserted by H guardians, one of
whom Is the actual thief first concerned.
How everything Is straightened out
and the guilty made to pay the penal
ty can only be seen at the Isis tonight
and tomorrow. , It Is worth seeing.
Richard Harding Davis never wrote a
better story.
The suffragette picture is still a
drawing one and the Latin quota
tion will be translated In tomorrow's
picture advertisement. .
