HALL GAINES PLAY.
A Dramatic Version of His New
Novel seThe Christian"

London, Oct 2O-Mr. Hall Caine has
just given a performance of dramatic
version of his new novel, THE Christ
ian," for copyright purposes. 1t took
place at the little theater at Douglas,
Isle of Man, and great secrecy was OBJ
served, for the author is a strict man of
business, with dual mission to elevate
folks and to make money. His sue
cess in the latter respect is undeniable.
His book has already yielded a small
fortune, which, coming on top of his
previous success, must have made him
a rich man. He is now inviting ten
ders for the drama, which is for sale at
the highest bidder So far, the best
bids are said to have been made by
Mr.. Willard and Miss Olga NethersoIe.

not return to Washington until after
