“THE DRAGON’S CLAW”
AT COLISEUM TONIGHT
A modem quest of the Golden'
Fleece by n woman instead of a man
is the novel situation underlying
“The Mistress of the YY’orld,” a
quartette of four immense Para

For the Intrepid Helen Heilsen of
this new and absorbing picture, is
the modern woman par excellence.
She speaks many languages and
through her knowledge of Chinese;
happens on to an epic adventure
which makes her the world’s Cro
esus through the discovery of the
long-lost, treasure of the Queen of
Sheba in the hidden city of Ophir.;
But it is not this treasure which
provides the Golden Fleece that the
woman seeks, but a scrap of paper,
a secret treaty of a vast empire,
the recovery of which will clear lier
dead father’s name of disgrace. If
Is a tremendous undertaking, fraught
With unknown perils, but this daring
woman risks all for ultimate vic
tory against overwhelming odds.
This irf said to be one of the
most remarkable pictures ever phorb

perbly massive and thousands of,
persons appear in the various scenes.
The story. Is based on a celebrated

on the big liner, who for years was

grew slower and softer, an awed

I>ragon, huge head swaying slowly,
emerged from a canvas covered “lair/'
erected behind a deck windless. The
coaxing tempo of the music appeared
] to lure the big reptile oil. Crouched
; dose to the deck, it crept along. Nearer
; and nearer it approached the orchestra,
j in the manner of some gigantic beast
about to sei/e a hypnotized prey.
The fantastic head, molded from

, alive, as its motion was controled by

the body concealed an assistant whose
every movement was timed to that oi

A sudden crash of the cymbals, a i

thunder from the tam-tam stopped the
.creeping advance of »h<* Dragon. T he
music swelled in volume, the tune ad
vanced sharply. As if angered the
Dragon reared its head upward, eyes
rolling, tongue wagging furiously
Rising on its feet, each movement in
perfect time with the music, it dashed
forward, then retreated. Jn a frenzy
it danced about the deck.
Again the music softened and sloprtd
down. The Dragon's dance diminished
in activity, until it again was crawling
about on deck.
A bead of lettuce, attached to a
long length of string was tossed in
front of the creature. As the Dragon
crept near it, a Chinese pulled the
lettuce away, as one does when playing
with a* kitten. With graceful yet
