turn is the object of the passion of Hilda
Gorrode, an equestrianne, whose over
lures he has rejected When the heroine
IS made aware of her succession to the
fortune, Capt Haynes and Hilda Gorrode,
who turn out old acquaintances conspire
TO separate the two lovers, the captain

consoled with the despised Hilda. From
this point, through series of episodes,
Virtue and villainy wrestle. and virtue
comes out ahead. The title of the play
is ostensibly derived from one of the main
and most daring scenes i'm a house of in
fanny into which the heroine has been
lured and which thrives when London
sleeps though as a matter of fact, tradi-
ton has Il that London never sleeps. OF
course, she is rescued by the~hero. But
the villain Is a man OF resource. He fires
the house in which Queenie lives and she
escaped BY treading the telegraph wires
as she was wont TO balance on the slack
wire In the circus ring. The villain for
the moment exercises his ingenuity against
the hero, but the attempt falls, as one
would expect and leaves him free TO res
cue the much wronged heroine just when

the knowledge, and, finding him obdurate,
the lady goes to the princess and con-
vinces her of Won Kanderbergs pertidy. In
the midst of Edora's humiliation, Won
Kanderberg enters her apartment to tell
her of the success of the plan. The prin-
cess rs very angry and very beautiful and
the prime minister Immediately proceeds
to make violent love to the lady. She or
ders him to leave, which he shows no
sign of doing, and, TO the establishment
of both, the prince enters. He conducts
his wife to another room, returns, locks
the door, forces Won Kanderberg to de-
fend himself, and seriously wounds him,
but as the prime minister falls, he calls
his officers, and the prince is arrested.
They take both the prince and his cousin
to the fortress prison of the principality.
The princess having seen her error, has
signed an order for her husbands release,
and has confided it to the lady who has
shown her friendship so positively for the
prince. She takes the order to Drachen-
stein. Upon gaining his freedom, Ru-
dolphs first thought is for the safety of
his wife, for the populaee have risen, he
goes to Lauterheim to find her, but she
has been driven out and they meet in the
same cottage, which is the locale of the
first act here all is forgiven and forgotten.
Edora finds in Rudolph that for which
her heart has so long desired, and he
manlike, is Overwhelmingly happy In his
new found love. His friends, meanwhile
have rallied to his aid and the revolution
is suppressed, and the final curtain shows
the reunited couple rulers again in fact.

expedition, Rudolph takes refuge at the
house of a farmer peasant, and there
learns of a plot for his overthrow, and
he also accidentally meets his wife and
falls in love with her.
Upon his return to the palace the prince

In the early part of the present century
the reigning prince of the tiny German
principally, Kronefeld, Rudolph Wilhelm
by name, was married to the daughter of
a neighboring grand duke, Edora Ru-
dolph cared but little for the affairs of
state and as the marriage was a loveless
one, appointed his wife regent, she being
of an ambitious nature. The prince found
his pleasure in hunting fishing amateur
theatricals, when he happened to be at
court, and writing verses. The princess
was completely under the domination of
her prime minister, the Baron Won Kan
