Manager Doyle, of the Auditor.
d L, announces that on Friday he
will give his patrons a play of
which much has been said and over
which a great deal of curiosity has
been aroused, "a Desperate
Chance" The author, Mr.. Theo-
dore Kremer, has taken for the
theme of his play, the story eff the
notorious Biddle Brothers. It Is a
play of great heart interest, abound
ing In thrilling situations. Every
one Is familiar with the exciting es'
cape from the Pittsburg jail of the
Biddle boys, aided by the warden's
wife, and the terrible fight In the
snow with the detectives, their
capture and finally their pathetic
death. The wonderful hypnotic
power that Ed Blddle had over the
warden's wife Is we'll known and
the pathetic scenes where the child
shows the overpowering love for
the mother who sinned against her
will, Is very touching and will
bring tears to many eyes. The cast
selected Is very strong and COM
prises many we'll known names.
