The following, briefly, is the story of the Him, ’‘Crook O’ Dreams,” to bo screened to-night:—Constance AValdron has been reared by two crooks, a man *nd a woman. The man’s name is Pete, and the woman has a son, Sam, an adept at picking pockets. At the opening of the story the police make a raid upon the shim home and arrest Pete and the woman. Sam and Constance escape. The latter reads of the search being made by a Mrs Waldron for her daughter, and induces Constance to pose as the daughter, Constance reluctantly agrees, and they communicate with Mrs Waldron, whose secretary, Laura Campbell, detects the deception. To save Mrs Waldron’s mind, they, decide to pass Constance really oil; as her daughter. It develops that Constance is really the long lost daughter, and that Sam’s mother was the nurse who stole her. There is a pleasing love affair between Constance and a young lawyer. t To-morrow and Thursday night “Broken Threads” will be screened. This beautiful story is founded on the famous poem by Edwin Arnold, and tells in vivid, realistic and wonderfully artistic manner the story of two lives, tragically separated but finally finding their way back through many strange paths to love and happiness.
