"The White Slave"

Some things grow mellower and better with age and Bartley Campbell's stirring melodrama of the pre-slayery period on it's yearly perigrination to the Magic Citv,' is not the exception, for its pre- sentation at the Bljou last evening met with the same enthusiastic reception as 1t received 30 years ago at it's initial per foImance.
 The story of "The White Slave is fla mliar.
 Lisa, the white slave, grows up m an aristocratic southern home under the gen eral impression that she is an ootoroon Her master dies but leaves papers free ing Lisa and the secret of Lisa's identity with Nance. quadroon housekeeper who poses as Lisa's mother. The papers are lost. The heir of the plantation, Clay Britton, who loves Lisa, but IS weak and easily led, squanders away all his inheritance and is forced to sell all his negro hands to William Lacy, an un- scrupulous soos1ndrel. By technical er- TOT in the bill of sale of which he takes advantage, Lacy secures Lisa as his slave and takes her to Mississippi to his planta- ton there and for resisting Lacy's plans regarding Lisa, Clay Britton is put in jail
 Clay escapes and goes to Mississippi and arrives fin time to save Lisa from Lacy After a dramatic escape from Lacy's clutches, the lovers. now reunited, by Lacy, who demands of the captain to drop them ashore at his plantation. The night is stormy and as the captain or ders his men to seize the runaways, the boat strikes a bar and the shock ex- plodes her boilers. wrecking the steamer in midstream. By a miraculous effort Clay and Lisa and Nance, who happened to he on the boat, were washed to the shore of small island in the middle of the river Their signals of distress are seen and reported to Lacy. who also was fortunate enough to escape the burning steamer. The lovers are captured and together with Nance are brought ,ack to Lacy's plantation, but surprise awaits Lacy, for Patrick stitch, lawyer, has found the missing papers and appears on the scene and proves that Lisa Is a white woman. Lacy busters, but to no avail and to make matters worse he is arrested for murder and in seeking to escape the officers of the law he is shot and killed The lovers fall into each others arms and everyone is happy.
 Lillian Lee Anderson as Lisa made her very patretic character, and rather too mournful. The Clay Britton of Fred erick J. Adams was meritorious. char acte rization of the young man led astray who finally sees the light. Allen Lee as William Lacy. presented a villain of the deepest dye, without resorting to stagey methods Others who deserved especial mentioned were the colored jubilee singers who were a feature and answered a dozen encoures.

 The hitherto hostile tone of the press against Hugh S. Gibson. American charge, who was assaulted last week by Enrique Maza, a newspaper report CT, has greatly moderated. with the ex- ception that Fl Eiglo continues to print insults to MT.

Its fail ure to appear is believed to have been due to action by the Cuban govern ment but the nature of this action has not been revealed. Gen.
