compelled, through a break down in the machine, to stay over night at the same hotel where he stops. The first scene shows Miss Barrymore in her fortune telling studio, which profession she has adopted after an unsuccessful attempt to be an actress. Through the medium of a divorce case, instigated by the wife of the man with whom the fortune tellers sister has had to stay at the hotel, Miss Barrymore, as Eleanor Anderson is given the chance to make a martyr of herself. Her picture is obtained by some of the New York newspapers and is used as that of her sister in accounts of the trial. In the meantime, Jane, the sister, becomes engaged to man, after she has changed her name to Hammond. To him Eleanor gives the lie direct by saying that she is Jane Anderson and has no sister. The lie succeeds nj convincing everyone, with the exception of Arnold Cullingworth, brother of Mrs. Bickley who is also re- lated to Mrs. Herriard, the 'villianess" of the play. In the end, however, after an exciting time. every one gets out of the difficulties into which they have been plunged by Eleanor's untruthfulness and the consummate scheming of Mrs. Her riard.

 "Forty-five Minutes From Broadway"
 Good plays like wine, improve with age, and "Forty-five Minutes From Broad way which klaw and Erlanger present at the Jefferson theatre Thursday night, December r, is said to be no exception to this rule; but rather does this most successful George M. Conan play prove even more eoncluslvely the truth of the adage. So good in fact has the piece proved to be that only q few of the larger cities have been privileged to see it at ali. Tor the others that have been impatientiy awaiting the coming &of this attraction, 1t is of great interest now to learn that eG with many of the original metropoi- tan cast in their original roles and in tte place of the absentees, players who are equally or even better known in the mim- ic world than their predecessors are. For example, for the role of Mary. the lead
 ing part, Miss Emma Carus, than whom there is not better known or cleverer oomedienne on the legitimate stage today, has been engaged. bringing to the part, which is filled with humor by Conan, the master humorist, a winning personality and d splendid singing voice for the bel ter rendition of the tuneful, tinkly songs scattered through the, piece.

 The Oath" enacted by MT. Mcdowell and Miss Prescott, tells the story of the, son of a princess falling into lions den and she offers her hand and her kingdom to him who will rescue her son, but when he is rescued by a slave. she endeavors to renounee her oath. This play is said to be unsurpassed on any vaudeville bill. The sketch is full of human interest, moving with all the dramatic effect of a four-act play. Both actors are very pop ular in Birmingham, where they have been seen in principal roles while pre- senting strong drama, and the an- nouncement of this engagement as vau- deville stars would be sufficient to insure a warm reception for them.
