Apart from its exposition of the deeds of the Ku Klux Klan, the play as a play would interst even a dullard. The love interest, the delight- ful comedy -creations and. the thrill- ing dramatic climaxes all combine to make ‘@ drama of most intense. inter- est. As long as good red, heaithy blood runs through human bodies, so * long will plays of this type continue to attract the American people. The Clansman is now in its fifth season, and comes to the Broadway theater next Monday evening. BREED THEATER. “The Royal Outcast,” Sensational Mo~ tion Picture. On Thursday, the Breed theater will show another big triumph in the mo- tion picture line, as Manager Mc- Nulty has secured for his leading at- traction the intensely interesting story of King Francis the First. Like all kings of a vacillating turn of mind, Francis was-surrounded by cad cour- tiers, who, taking advantage of his failings, caused no end of trouble to the "king’s subjects by furthering schemes for their 'own advancement. Francis had no children of his own, and the heir apparent, the infant Clar- ence, ‘being only a nephew, other rel- atlves were intriguing against his in- terest to get control of the throne. “To prevent the abduction of the heir apparent, he is carried through secret passageways of the castle, and firally placed “adrift on the river fn an open boat. He is discovered by passing peasants, and a thrilling rescue made by the peasant wife, who swims the river and secures the young Clarence. He is kept by them for a period of seven years, as a playmate for their little son. One day while selling vege- tables in the capital of Arcady, they chanced' to read of a reward offered for the discovery of the heir apparent, and much agitated, they hastened to thelr home in the hopes of concealing him, as they have grown very fond of | him, but their excitement attracted the attention of a courier of the castle, and following them he secures the little prospective king. The balance of the bill for this week is very strong, and contains a biograph | feature 1,000 feet long, of great dram- atic interest, there being excellent vawdewille pictures, some historical, and excellent trick and comedy pic- tures, giving an unusually long pro- gram that is full of merit, Mise" Grace Alwin will sing at each performance, a new illustrated song, which is accompanied by a set of the :Ainndwmest slides seen here in a long me, JEWETT CITY Dercas Circle Devises Menoy-Mai(ing Scheme — Automobile Accident—A Freak Night Blooming Cereus.
