In this particular show the heroine is about to don the veil and be forever after locked in the nunnery. The hero, as usual, is hastening to her-and the directors make much of the oppor- tunity, showing alternate flashes of the heroine, whom they call the bride (presumably following the Catholic ritual,) then of the Crucifix, which is subtitled "The Bridegroom," and of the hero dashing to the rescue in a fast battle-cruiser belonging to the Kingdom of Italy.
