T had dined with Jack, the cousin who was the only brother I had ever known.

Because of this delay I had found cut that Jack had loved me for years. As if this astonishing fact were not cnough to upset me, I had lost my wedding and engagement rings which I had foolishly taken off before the dirner, that Jack might not guess my marriage until T was ready to tell him. That T had speedily found them again did not lessen the shock I had received when I thought they were lost. My nerves were still quivering from the fright I had had. T shrank from the ordeal that was ctill before me. When he left me, Jack had told me that as soon as I had composed myself I must tele- phone Dicky and join him at the Un- derwoods’ home. He also said that at the first opportunity I must tell Dicky everything that had passed. I knew his advice was sound, but every Guivering nerve in my body protested against doing anything save hiding in my darkened bedroom. The jangle of the telephone bell struck my nerves as a whip might have done. Who could be calling me?

It is doubtful if many women on the stage can surpass Miss Julie Herne : Mary Turner. Alfred Cross is good as Joe Carson, a clever forger, Arthur Vinton handled his role police inspector in tip-top shape. It is rather difficult to put a finger on any one member of the entire com- pany and say who was best, because cach and every part treated in remarkable fashion, The secret of the whole success this week cery player is properly Irving White as the rich Ralph Collier his son mirable.

And ittle I ouihern as a dyed-in-the- wcol tough kid is immense. caused many a good . hearty Although this is the “Within the Law” has been presented in New Britain, mosi of the playgoers here know the story of the play. It has to do with a young Mary Turner, who works in a rge New York department store. A theft takes place and Mary is accused. To make an example of the owner of store, Edward Gilder, succeeds in hav- ing her sent to prison for a term three years. She prolests her nocence but to no av She pleads with Gilder. Finally she swears re- venge and at the end of her sentence she joins a clever band of crooks who, vnder her direction, carry on all their work within the letter of the She then marries Edward Gilder, son of her former emplover. By the ruse of a stool pigeon. her companion, Joe Garson, is trapped into robbing the house of old man Gilder. being against her ethics Mary starts out to save Joe from the crime. She goes to Gilder's mansion and succeeds in getting the gang away. hut not be- fcre Joe Garson has shot and killed the stool pigeon with a revolver equipped with a Maxim silencer. Young Gilder, whom Mary has mar- ried, catches her in the room, and is there when the fatal shat fired. He takes the gun away from Joe Gar- scn and is caught with it by the detec- tives stationed in the house. He then charged with murder, and Ma Turner taken along with him. a sensational finish, showing the famous “third degree” is ad- ninistered. and how “crooks” are trapped into confessing. Joe Garson “gives up” and Mary Turner and her husband are allowed to go free, In such an imperfect sketch would be difficult to give all the charming little bits that make “Within the Law’ worth seeing. The stage scttings last night were great. The drawing room in Gilder's home was ihe best bit of coziness seen on a stage here in a long time. Miss Julie Herne has played the part. of Mary Turner before and she knows its every exacting demand. She goes from the pale-faced girl to the well clothed lady adven- turess with a finish that is wonderful, Alfred Cross has no difficulty in get- tirg Joe Garson over the footlights.
