OPERA HOUSE. “CAUGHT IN THE FOG.” I / 1 “Caught in the Fog” is the speediest funniest and most excitipg crook chase of the season. May McAvoy and Conrad Nagel are starred, she as an amateur gem thief, he as the owner of the gems, and purloiner of the lady, herself. The locale is the palatial yacht lying off the coast of Florida, and the business has to do with the various sharpers who raid the boat, until copscatch the culprits—and bring the wild. night in the fog to a short stop. YouTlj laugh yourself into a good humour,, even if you are the biggest grouch in the country. /
