day and the trial was intensely in
teresting. There was much talent dis
played on the part Of the attorneys and
both sides presented strong and able

FOR her SAKE

Little occurrences upon which hang
the certainty Of great events consti-
tutc one Of the most effective weapons
in the hands Of the skillful playwright,
aiming to enchain the interest and
excite the emotions Of the audience.
There is one such incident particular
ly mentioned hv reviewers in the
Russo-Siberian play. For Her Sake. y
which is to be seen at the opera house
in Canon City December 10.
The play is a four-act melodrama,
the general theme Of which ia that of
the love of prince of the blood for
a serf girl, with the consequential
opposition Of his relatives. who hold
before his eyes the law OF caste, and
also Of the secret police; for jealousy
Of the prince prompts his rival to en-
broil him in political conspiracy
that ultimately introduces him and
the spectator to the Siberian mines.
! The scene adverted to occurs in
the second act. II is made possible
by the national costume OF the people
who figure in this play. The prince.
against whom there is plot aimed
at his life, enters peasants hut and
throws aside the long. fur-trimmed
overcoat worn by the men Of Russia.
While he sleeps one Of the princes
foes, mistaking the coat in the dark
ness for his own, slips ii on and steps
across the threshold of the room.
Shots ring out, and the man in the
borrowed overcoat falls dead in the
doorway. The piece is full Of similar
episodes, calculated to keep the spec
tator on the qui vive from rise to fall
of curtain. Though verging on the
tragical in many. of its situations. 1t
is said that the comedy interest in
the piece is well sustained through
out.
