MAKES MUCH OF PLAY
Mrs. Fiske, in MRS. Bumpstead.
Leigh, Has Achieved Triumph
AT Grand Tonight.

Crictics are sometimes wont to OBJ
serve that in the things of the stage.
as in all other fields, there's moth
ing new under the theatrical sun"
The observation is frequently we'll
founded, but occasionally play
strikes across the dramatic horizon
in bold relief.
Such a one is Mrs. Bumpstead
Leigh the new comedy in which
Mrs. Fske has recently scored
pronounced New York success, and
in which she is to appear at the
Grand theater, tonight. The play
was produced in New York early in
April, and won it's success entirely
upon its merits, as it's author was en-
tirely unknown.
Popular expectation in advance
concerned itself, quite naturally,
with such a play such as Mrs. Fiske
had usually been identified with, and
the first night audience was sur
prised to find Mrs. Bumpstead-
Leigh the lightest play in which
she ever appeared.
There are two entirely distinct
sides to the role of Mrs. Bumpstead-
Leigh, one of the high class repre-
sentative of English swelldom, who
puts it on thick" and the other the
plebian daughter of an Indiana pana-
cea peddler. The contrasts are sharp
and only a great artistic dexerfty
could successfully encompass them.
Mrs Bumpstead-Leigh was born Del
la Sayles, daughter of Old Jim Sayles
OF Missionary Loop, Indiana, who
gathered a goodly fortune from the
sale of certain elixir. He left
fortune and family composed of
his wife, his daughter, Della, and a
younger daughter, Ollie. AS the Mis-
sionary Loop social horizon did not
satisfy Della, she determined, with
the aid of the patrimony, to get
somewhere.
First it was Washington, where
! she conquered, then Paris, where she
again won. Then came England, and
there she married clergyman of the
lesser nobility, who boosted of a
| hyphenated name. Next she engaged
her sister to the pride of the caste
proud Rawsons. Things are swinging
with a high flourish when there en-
tiers Pete Swallow, tombstone sales
man who used to be a sweetheart of
Della Sayles in the old Missionary
Loop days.

prisoners from one section of the new
Jail to another. Harmon was in the
lead, and watching his opportunity
slipped into a corridor and made his
way out. Herman saw him go, but
could not leave the rest of the pris-
oners.
Harmon, when captured first, had
about $240 in his possession. The
question now is, who gets the money.
Pending trial, the money is, of course
in the hands of the officers. AS Har-
mon was not found guilty it is hard.
IL possible that his money can be
returned to the victims Of his for
geries. AS Harmon is sure not to
return to demand it, with peniten.
tiary trip staring him in the face,
the money will probably remain in
the hands of the officers.

Saturday from trip to Portland. Mr..
Benn said that the first intimation
he had that he was fugitive was
when he read the report in the news
papers.
He first decided to go to Seattle
and make life miserable for the news
papermen but on second thought de-
cided that the officer who had failed
to find him could wait until he re-
turned home. He says the story that
he ran away from service of papers
is absurd and that he has nothing to
fear from a grand jury investigation.
