Just as T did so a cheap, flashy guy who was a regular hoarder came out of the dining-room, looking sheepish and with one cheek bright red and the other very pale. T've seen a good smack make that kind of complexion before, so T kind of waited around to see what he would do.” “Did he leave the hotel.” “No. He walked out into the office and across to where Dave Pollock was sitting and flung himself into a chair beside him. At that T sort of got be- hind some curtains and waited to hear what he said, but T needn’t have both- ered about hiding, for he yelped loud enough to be heard all the way to the kitchen.” “Can you tell us what he said?” “Yes.

Only recently,—taree back,—we had stories out of Russia of oppression. Overtopping them all was the story of a Jew pros ccuted at Kief, because of nis religion. “The Yellow Ticket” has to do with a sirl from this place,—and it hangs on the same thread. Marya Varenka an attractive Jewish girl, taken into the home of the British ambassador at St. Petersburg as a companion to his daughter. It is there an American newspaper cor! sponident meets and falls in love her. During the course of an noon tea the Russian police expose this girl as a Jewess, hiding under the name of a Christian, carrying a yellow ticket, the passport of a woman of the underworld. She is banished from the ambassador's home, but not before she tells her life story, the story of her innocence. Rolfe, the newspaperman, is thc only one who believes her. The chielf of the secret police entices the girl to his bachelor apartments under the guise of friendship and theve, be- ause of humiliations, she kills him. | She is to be sent to Siberia for life when her American friend, the news- i paperman, threatening to the real facts in the and | his standing at the an embs forces the Russiun to ! lease her It is a drama of heart interest from beginning to end, “The YeHow Ticket.” As the little Russian Jewish girl Herne portrays a character that ves her ample opportunity to d those powers of emotion which are f: making her onc the most popu actresses that cver played in New Britain. Her story of the life of this girl, told at the end of the first act, is a masterly plece of dramatic work. Her big scene in the bachelor apart- ments, the murder of the chief of po- lice, is a bit of reAlism that causes a shudder. Her entrance into the bu- veau of the “Okrana,” there, trial, to be sentenced to Siberia for life, is marked with tragedy.—the dc tion of a soul that has no chance, {hat must bow to the inevitable, Therc is only one ray of sunshine that comes | into the life of this little Russian Jew- i after her accusation, and that is the moment she Is told of her freedom.
