Gates OF JUSTICE
ON SPRING HINGES

\ fairly good-sizcd audience
greeted. the second appearance Of the
Kathryn Purnell company at the
Grand last night The bill was
''rhc Gates of Justice" four-act
mclodrama.
Miss Purnell again appeared as
the very much prosecuted heroine,
and she realized all the possibilities
of the role. II is hardly necessary
to say that in this class of plays the
abilities of such an Enthusiastically
good actress as Miss Purnell are not
put to any great test. But, the old
tale about the bridge that carries
you over. is applicable.
In "1he Gates Of Justice" luna
tic asylum is introduced. as a sample
of high art. Some alienists think
that all actors. authors and artists
generally. are mentally unbalanced.
But be that a. it may. some people
there are who think that one who
