"CAPTAIN BLOOD," a Vitagcaph picture with J. Warren Ker.
rigan in the title role, is an adaptation of this thrilling novel.
SYNOPSIS -
u Peter Blood, a young Irish physi-
cian, is wrongly condemned and sent
as a slave to the Barbadoes under or-
ders of King James. There at the be-
hest of Arabella Bishop, niece of the
military commander, he is purchased
by Bishop. A Spanish galleon, under
command of Don Diego de Espinosa
• y Valdez, bombards the city and cap=
tures it. Blood saves IVrary Traill
and Arabella. He leads his fellow -re-
bels -convict on board the ship and
captures it. When Don. Diego returns
he takes' him prisoner also and 'an-
nounces the ship as his prize, Col-
onel Bishop goes aboard the ship
when the firing ceases and Blood
holds him as hostage until safely out
of port. Blood orders Don Diego to
sail for :Curacao, but the Spaniard be-
trays him and sails the ship under the
very guns of Don, Diego's brother's
ship. Blood and Don Diego fight
and the Don is overpowered. Blood
ties Don Diego to a cannon's mouth
and forces his son to consent to help
make peace with the Spaniards by
telling them all is well on the Cisco.

"A fight would be averted if Don
Diego de Espinosa were to ga aboard
his brother's ship, and by his pees-
., eine and assurances inform the Ad-
miral that all is well with the Cinco
Llagas. > but Don Diego cannot go in
person, because he has a slight touch
of fever -shall we. say? B'ut you, his
son in -ay convey all this and soiree
other matters together with his 'hom-
age to your uncle. You shall go in

ish prisoners, and I— a distinguished
Spaniard delivered from captivity in
Barbados by your recent raid• -will
accompany you to keep you in coun-
tenance. If I return alive, and with-
out accident of any kind to hinder our
free sailing hence, Don Diego shall.
have. his' life, as shall every one of
you. But if there is the least raised -
venture, be it from treachery or ill-
fortune—I. care not which --the battle
as I have had the honor to . explain,
will be opened on our side by .this
gun, and your father will iee the first
victim of the conflict"
Don Esteban gazed wildly a mo-
ment upon .the shoulders of his lath-
er. But his father remained silent.
Something like a sob' escaped the boy.
"I . I accept," he answered at
last, and ,swung,, to the Spaniards,
"And you—you will, accept too," he
insisted passionately.

very tall and stiff, a little older and
greyer than Don Diego, whom ' h

that his wounds are not so grave as
to' have prevented his corning. It was
his consideration of"himself and the
false position in which you would be
placed if you had direct word' from.
him of what has happened..." Blood
paused a moment. "What you hear
from us is no more than a mere,,ru-
mor. Your excellency understands."
•His excellency frowned tliougiifully.
"I understand)...,, . in part," said he.
Captain Blood had a moment's un-
easiness.
"And we have in the boat below
two chests containing fifty thousand
pieces of eight, which we are to de-
liver to your excellency."
"Not another word, in the name of
Heaven!" cried the Admiral in' alarm,
"My brother wishes me to assume
charge of this money, to carry it to
Spain for him? Well, that is a fami-
ly rnattet-between niy brother and
myself." He broke off. "Hum! A
glass of Malaga in my cabin, if you
Please," he invited the, "whilst the
chests are being hauled abroard."
And whilst sailors carried on board
the two chests, the Admiral and Cap-
tain Blood exchanged toasts and dam-
ned eternally the besotted janies who
Ioccupied the throne of England. At
ihe end Don Esteban. titiiidly urged;
"My father is le haste to reach San
Domingo. He desired me to stay no
longer than necessary to embrace you.If you will give us leave, . then, sir
uncle."
In the circumstances "sir uncle"
did not insist,
As they stepped into the waist of
the Cinci Lieges, Hagthorpe advanc-
ed to receive them. B19ocl observed
the set, almost scared expression on
his face.
"Don Diego . " he waa beginning,
and then stopped, and looked curious-

Noting the pause and.the look, Es-
teban bounded forward, Itis face livid;
"Have you broken faith, you curs?
Has h.e crime to harm?" he cried --and
the six. Spaniards behind 'hint grew
clamorous with furious questionings.`
"We do not break faith, said Hag-
thorpe firmly, so firmly that he quiet
ed them. "And in this case there was

bonds before ever you reached the

Peter Blood said nothing.
"Died?" screamed Esteban. " 2'ou

Blood got between, whilst his follow-
ers seized the lad;
"He died, before 1 left' the Cinco
Llagas," said Blood. "He was hang-
ing dead in his bonds when 1 spoke
to hin-i before leaving,"
"If I had known that," the lad': fid
at last in a thick voice, "you would be
hanging from :the yard -arm of the En-
carniacion at this moment,: But you'll
hang there yet."
Captain Blood shrugged, and turn-
ed on his heel.. But he did not on
that account disregard the words, nor
did Ilagthorpe, as they showed 'at a
council'held that nightie the cabin.
This council was met to determine
what should be done with the' Spanish-
prisoners: Considering that Curacao.
now lay beyond their reach. It had,
been decided that, going east of His-
panola, and then sailing along its non -
thein coast, they should make for
Tortuga, that haven of the,,w,buccan-
cers: It was now'a question whether
they should covey the Spaniards thi-
therowith thein, or turn them off in
a boat to make the best of their way
to the coast of Hispaniola, which was.
but ten miles off. This course urged
by Blood was determined.

Mr., and Mrs. Coombs:—It was with N
genuine regret that this community, 1111
and particularly those here gathered, IN
recently learned that you had made m
arrangements which will soon result N
in your leaving our town. A general
expression Voiced itself that befere
you go, your friends must in some •
epecial way give evidence of the high
esteem in which they have come to
hold you and hence this assembly.
To you, Mrs. Coombs, the ladies
particularly have been iadebted for
the helpful way ia which you have
participated in all the movements
which /all within the scope of' their
work, and it is felt that your leaving
will carry away a strong support. The
g•entlemen also will miss greatly your
presence and influence at the many
sports and games which help to re-
lieve the dull monotony of the daily
grind Of their work.
To you, Mr. Coombs, the men want
to sai, that they have found you a
valuable asset both in business and
sport. You have Played the game it
both respects with energy and with
straightforwardness in a mariner that
established you. in the respect of all.
'`,,Ve trust that this evening's pro.
gramme remain pleagant
