ct the Lyceum next week by Ralph
Stuart and his excellent company. It
is. called 'sThe 9Gypher Code," and it
depicts a fascinating story of life at
the national capital. All the gay life
Of Washington is reflected ip the stir
ring scenes of this strong society dra-
ma. The social side Of Washington
the deep schemes of fnanciers who seek
by obtaining, tips on governmental bus
mess to influence the stock market,
the boldness Of Wall street operators
who corrupt government officials while
/ prosecuting these nefarious schemes
this is the material from which Charles
Klein, author Of New York,s greatest
dramatic successes this season, has con
structed his play. A charming love
story threads the many bright scenes of
the play, and the characters drawn by
Mr.. Klein are types familiar to those
who understand human nature and the
motley crowd that infests the capital
of the nation.
