~The Traitor"

"The Traitor" which comes to the
opera house Thursday, December "A,
is another of Thomas Dixons striking
stories of the Southland, which is
likely to excel in popularity anything
the author has yet written. 1t has as
a background the peculiar conditions
that prevailed in North Carolina at
the close of the Civil War, when that
State was overrrn by spurious imita-
ton of the powerfully Ku Klux Kan.
1t is an absorbing story Ct love anG
rivalry, of mountain prejudice and
mountain hospitality, full of deep III
teresr ard feeling of the time, that
IF the reconstruction period, vivid IN
dramatic pictures and forceful in char
acterization Mr.. Dixon, who has col
!aborated with the gifted young dra-
matist Charming Pollock, know their
types well and are fully acquainted
with The history of the country in
Wi:icl. the scene is laid and they have
produced a play so fascinating, so
vigorous, so stirring in action, so full
of shrewd humor and of vitality that
it can not achieve a greater success
than it deserves. "The Traitor" is a
drama of more than historic verify
and of abounding incident, pictures
quely depicted and rich in the impas-
stoned romance of the place and time
There is woven into the plan love
story charmingly told. "The Traitor
IS . play CT humor and dramatic
thrills. Stirring and laughable scene~
alternate along it's shores like the
whirl-pools and eddies of a mountain
stream. The United States court room
scene is a JOY, the Ku Klux Klan meet
ing at the Inwood ruins a spectacle
the fight is a thriller, the troubles of
Aunt Julie Ann with her rival nus
bands a comedy, the surprise at the
murder of Judge Butler at the birthday
party ball given in honor of Stella, (:
tragedy, the final climax whirl of
excitement.
"The Traitor" plays upon the heart
strings, purging the human passions
love and pity and terror and powerful
ly impresses it's pictures upon imagi-
nation and memory.
Like it's famous predecessor "The
Clansman," "The Traitor" has been
vigorously denounced by negroes
wherever it appeared, but their hostil-
ity has not yet succeeded in barring
the progress of the play which is now
in it's third successful season.
The company includes such we'll
known players as Fred. H. Hargraves,
Alfred Aldrige, Mark Harrison, J. H.
Lehmberg, Charles Webster, Willis
Evans, Samuel G. Wingfeld,; F. W.
Kohman, Franklin James, Alice New
ell, Kate Mayhew, Minded Price, Adele
Leroy and others.

low last nights level.
News influences were decidedly mixed

homa did not amount 10 much. Liver
pool reported weakness there. and at the
same time attributed the greater part of
the heaviness 10 the declines on the
american side Of the Atlantic. There was
q big decrease in the European visible
supply. However, cash demand continued
distressingly slow and spectators seemed
inclined TO be cautious In taking a posi-
live stand either way on the market.
The opening was &c lower to a shade
higher. May started at 1905 to 1905 a
loss OF isah 10 a gain Of 1-l6c, and after
much wavering touched 100as

but prices showed practically no altera-
ton. MAY started a shade lower to a
shade higher. at .34ss to a4ta. and seemed
inclined to keep within that range.
