She is Lillian Mortimer, who is said TO
have followed the chief action of the novel
with fidelity, has connected the incidents
well and has drawn the characters clearly
Both book and play revel in villainy or the
graceless sort, in which the guilty pursue
assert their strength. The play follows
the career of a young man who has a
crime pinned upon him and is bounded until
he stands under a hangman'S moose on the
gallows. He has a sweetheart, imperson-
ated by Miss Mortimer, who shows her
loyalty by going to his rescue on the fatal
day with pardon, making daring run in
the cab of a locomotive and arriving as the
executioner is about TO spring the trap.
The love story is said to be well written,
and relieving the darker deeds which occur.
The production depends largely upon its
equipment, fourteen scenes being required.
Hearts of Oak which, by reason of it's
good qualities and age, holds a place of its

him of his concession. He is obdurate
