The audience was decidedly- enthusiastic over Jthe work, of the entire cast. Extra ordinary s pains, on the part of , the competent Coach, Perry Reigel man. resulted In a gratifying per formance.

Opening 'in a sub-leased apart ment in New York City, on a late afternoon, the butler (Harold Tomlinson) and the maid (Thelma La Duke) are at once Introduced to 'Jthe audience. ; Stolen jewels, a missing husband the day after his wedding night; and a perpetually irate aunt (Mildred Pugh), to say nothing of two ravishing young ladies, poised In the thick of the affair, present" active ingredients for any dramatic plot. George Howell, --the: missing husband, whose part was taken by Carlton Gaines, returns home after trans acting a delicate piece of business for Ned Pembroke (Jack Minto), the fiance of Daphne (Florence fPowerK to find his home - (the sub-leased apartment) in a-, tu- mult. The maiden aunt, - Miss Winnacker, as ' well as Ottily Howell, wife lifjthe mlssinir husband-lawyer, "is i informed that a valuable; ruby necklace has been stolen from Mrs. Pembroke (Alma Farmer) in Boston simultaneous ly with Gorges absence. An ac- cldental exchange of traveling bags thrusts the property of the Tactual thief into George's hands who, all unwittingly, becomes the possessor of burglary equipment, the sight of which appalls " the bride of a week, who is torn be tween trust and distrust her well-meaning, but meddlesome, aunt; and her innocent husband. It takes three sizeable acts to create and unravel the complicat ed situations: Out of the 'maze stood persistently Susie's un quenchable desire to return to Sioux City: her thieving of the necklace, and the thrusting of the thief into the midst of an upset house. " .'' Florence Power has piquancy, charm, beauty, and an instinct for acting that places her in the fore of any cast. Thelma La Duke, in her naive role of maid, was ex cessively funny. She was a de light to the audience from first to last. Fay Jo Wolz, as Ottily, was a charming example of eager fi delity, and the attractive gowns which she wore were much ad mired. Mildred Pugh may always be depended upon to enact her part with a dramatic power quite beyond the amateur. She was the shrill-voiced aunt in the play, ana her translation of the part given her was most commendable. Maurice ' Wood was such a downright "good crook" the audi ence caught itself wondering If a character had been loaned from the city jail. Francis Lutz. Johnny Creech, and Carl Ramsyer, as of ficers on the i New "York police force, were realistic and forceful. The -three played prominent parts through the major action of the play. ' ' 7 Jack Minto, as Daphne's suitor, provided much of the humor and much of the sentiment of the play, to say nothing of the proverbial lover's hesitancy. The audience greatly admired his stage pres ence; his immediate suceptibility to any situation. Carlton Gaines as the wt-11-meaning young lawyer won the sympathy of the audience. He carried through some of the finest acting the De Molay organization has-ever sponsored. " Julia Fleming. &s Mrs. Flem ing, owner of the apartment, took hft part with digmt: and decision. Alida Olsen enacted Vera, the show girl, with ; skillful manner isms and inflections of speech. Alma Farmer played the part of Mrs. Pembroke, owner of the stolen necklace. While her lines were brief, they were effectively added to the success of the whole. - Numbers by the Capitol theatre orchestra and groups of special dance features enlivened the inter missions. Elizabeth Waters, Lu clle Pettyjohn. Dorothy Bell, Cyn thia -Delano, Max! no Myers, and Mar jorie Webb all contributed graceful interpretations. Homer Richards was in charge of the business details of the play. ----- - - - II I i, ... .. . C A. Luthy. Reliable jewelry tore. What you are looking for in Jewelry.

ASKS MILLION FOR LOVE Sues Brother for Alienation of Wife's Affections BERLIN, Dec. 16. (AP). Charges made In the reichstag to day that a secret monarchist mili tary clique is building up a huge illegal reserve army in Germany with munitions and airplanes hoarded In Germany and Russia, tonight faced the bourgeoise coal ition cabinet of Chancellor Marx Philipp Scheidmann, head of the social democrats, whose accu sations Droduced bedlam in the reichstag demanded that the present cabinet be replaced by one in which every member was a republican. He presented a motion of non confidence in the government, but the fate of the cabinet remained in the balance when the reichstag adjourned until noon tomorrow without taking a vote.

As Scheidemann made his accu sations, the nationalists, pointing to the'diplomatic box in which foreign representatives. Including American Ambassador Schurman, were seated, cried: "Why reveal these things to our enemies?" they then left the, chamber. .'
