They found a money order deposited at the bank Monday by the Omineca Her- ald and pieces of Union Bank envelopes. The band has evi- dently separated and no fur- ther trail of them has yet been discovered. A posse went a mile above’ timber line on the Rocher de Boule mountain yesterday but they found no tracks or traces in the snow.

The film for instance is three thousand feet long, and on every foot there are twelve scenes that have been painted in color by hand, The leading thread of the play is a spendthrift wife, cleverly por- trayed by a leading actress, and the scenes show the lives led by the haute monde and the magni- ficenee with which they surround themselves. These interiors and the people who move through them naturally in the tourse of the drama, are splendid exam- ples of the new colored movies, the drawing room, the ballroom, the boudoir and the garden, each being marked for a scene in the on é plot.
