Peoples. a GREAT deal of the story of "Little L Miss Optimist," starring Miss Vlv- ian Martin, which opened at the Peoples yesterday, hinges upon tHe pos session of a luck-coin, a battered and scratched dime, which many times brings good luck to Its owner. Miss Martin, as Malzle-Rosle Carden, starts out In life as a waif of the streets and sells newspapers. Her bright smiles and cheerful optimism about everything win her many friends. She saves a starving young musician from death and Incidentally gives him her cherished "lucky dime." Her optimism is sorely taxed when her brother is declared guilty of falsi fying the weights by a man who is one of the pillars in a church, where the musician whom she has saved from starvation later gets a position as organist. The man who accuses her brother of falsifying weights ts the man who has really done it and is later discovered by his employer.. The employer sum mons the guilty man to his house, ac cuses him of the theft, and In the fight which follows is killed by his employe. Meanwhile. Malzle Induces her brother to go West and say that he is not guilty of the crime. He arrives in time to see the Builty employe robbing his dead employer The brother Is knocked Into unconsciousness by the man, who makes his escape. He is seen by Maizle-Rosie and the next day. when she sees him putting the lucky dime which the mu sician has lost and which has been found by the employer. Into the collec tion box, she accuses him In front of the whole congregation. The usual happy ending follows. A Selig World News completes the. programme. Columbia. "Double Crossed," a Paramount pic ture starring Pauline Frederick, opened at the Columbia yesterday. It is a modern play of love and intrigue, with a tremendous feminine appeal. It is the story of a young society matron who discovers that her husband, with whom she Is very much in love and whom she has always set up on a ped estal and worshipped, has, in his youth, committed a serious slip. While at a house party Miss Fred erick, as Eleanor Stratton. the-wife, overhears a conversation between her husband and a detective, who is try ing to force him into committing an other crime by threatening to expose the first, unless he obtains some papers from Worthington. who Is their host. The so-called detective is a stool pigeon for one of the most unprincipled political leaders of the day, who is try ing to force Worthington from his position, because he has In his posses sion a paper incriminating the political leader. It is this paper which the "detective" is trying to force her hus band to get. Her husband tells" the man that rather than have his wife learn of his first crime, he will get the papers. In order to save him from himself she de termines to get the papers, and after all of the guests at the house party have retired, gets them and the next day takes them to the office of the detective. How she finally "puts one over" on one of the worst characters In the underworld provides thrills enough for anyone.

She fails in love with, the man who is using her as a tool, but carries out her part of the bargain until the night of her marriage. In desperation she writs a note to the man she loves. Im ploring him to save her from marriage, but he tells her that it is either mar riage or the slums. She evolves the scheme of feigning drunkenness to the man whom she is going to marry, so spills the contents of a bottle of wine on her wedding robe. This act produces an exciting climax and some startling complica tions, which finally lead to a satisfac tory ending. Star. William Russell.

Fuller, 303 Cherry street, wife of a hotel employe, as the central figure. A report was received late Saturday night at police headquarters that Mrs. Fuller had been attacked by an un known man In the hallway of her home. - Attack la Mysterious. Mrs. Fuller was answering a knock. at the door of her little vine-covered cottage when a tall man with a slouch hat pulled down over his face, grabbea her roughly by the throat and clasped his hands over her eyes. ' He threw her to the floor and was endeavoring to place a gag In her mouth when she re covered her breath and emitted a snarp, piercing screen. Her 10-year-old son, Charles, ruehed to her assistance and hurried from the house to notify the neighbors next door that his mother was being attacked. As friends came to their assistance the man stooped low and rushed down the poorly lighted street. Although Mrs. Fuller was unable to get a good look at her assailant, she asserted that he was of the same build and resembled greatly her former hus band. Charles Summers. Her small son likewise declared that the man was his father. Son Identlf tea -Assailant. "I know it was my first daddy." Said the boy, Charles, last night. "He had big broad shoulders and acted just like my first daddy." Although not" greatly Injured by her rough treatment, Mrs. Fuller, was suf fering from fright. Her condition be came so serious last night that she was sent to the Good Samaritan Hospital, where it was said she would be com pelled to remain at least two weeks. Back of the. attack on Mrs. Fuller Saturday night Is the alrange disap pearance of her older son. Carl, aged 14. August 30. last. The youth, who had never been away from home over night and whose home Mfe Is said to have been the best, failed to return one night after playing with children about the neighborhood. . Bor'a Disappearance Complete. At the time the theory was advanced that the boy might have run away with a circus which- was In Portland about that time, but the mother is posi tive in her belief that he .would never attempt such a tiring. She has believed from the first that her divorced hus band is in some way responsible for the boy's- disappearance. Descriptions and photographs of the boy have been sent up and down the Coast from Seattle to Los Angeles and the police in all of the cities have been asked to locate him, but thus far no trace of the lad has been found. Coupled with the disappearance of the boy is the assertion -of his younger brother and Mrs. Fuller that the boy's father was seen about the streets of Portland that day. The younger brother, Charles, said-he had seen his father at a depot the day his older brother disappeared. Divorced Husband Not Located. Since then it is asserted that efforts have been made to find the woman's divorced husband, Charles Summers, but he has never been located. Despite the apparent dropping from sight of her son and former husband, Mrs. Ful ler is confident that the man who at tacked her Saturday night is her di vorced husband, and she believes that If Summers can be located her boy will be returned to her. Mrs. Fuller was divorced from her first husband more -than six years ago, and was married to C. F. Fuller in 1912. Her younger eon, Charles, who is now living with a neighboring family, last night told of a -recent mysterious effort to poison the family by some person putting poison in a package of tea. Because of Mrs. Fuller's serious con dition, this statement could not be verified. C0LLINGS COMING HOME Medical Student and Bride Are Ex pected This Week. Mr. and Mrs. Clyde W.

"If I were -a seeker after God and truth," said Rev. Gillis, "where would I go to find out what means I miffht take to secure my soul's eternal salva tion? First. I "would surely believe in God. I would go to the wise men and the philosophers and I would ask them. Is there a God? "They would say: Well, there may be a supreme power, or mighty force that moves the universe.' Our creed summed up is this: We do not absolutely know; no man can tell. "Then I would go to the Christians and ask. 'Is there a God?' " 'Surely,' they would reply. " "Well, has he given you any mani festation? Has he given you any visl ble sign that there is a God? A true. just, powerful, loving and merciful God?" Again they would reply, 'surely. he has given us the inspired book called the Bible for our guidance and he has spoken through a human instrument known as Jesus'." Rev. Father Gillls then compared the Interpretation of the Bible by the Cath olic Church as with its Interpretation by the Protestants, in which he pointed out the different impressions made on.
