Madame X" both in theme and de-
velopment is far off the beaten track
pursued by playwrights recently and its
appeal to the emotions is well nigh ir-
resistible.
In the famous court room scene of
which so much has been published the
striking situation is presented of son
being appointed by judge to defend
his own mother on trial for murder
Her guilt is known to the audience,
hence when her son arises to plead for
her it constitutes a scene of wonderful
impressiveness and rare appeal. He is
ignorant of the fact that she is his
mother and she of her relationship to
the man fighting for her freedom. She,
because of desire to prevent the story
of her misfortunes ever reaching her
sons ears, refuses to speak word in
her own defense and on account of the
mystery surrounding her is only known
as Madame X"

child labor as introduced in the legis-
er to defeat it.
While the fight against this bill was
at its height fate dealt Hanscomb the
first cruel blow he had ever known.
His little daughter Mabel, an only
child and the idol of his heart, was
lost.
4 small fortune was spent in a
search for her, but no trace of the
child could be found. At last the
heartbrOken parents were forced to
give her up as dead.
But Mabel was not dead. After she
strayed from her mothers side a
strange combination of circumstances
threw her into the hands of the Tav-
los, a family living in Dering Falls,
the town where some of Mr.. Hans
combs largest, most profitable mills
were located. Mabel was too young
to explain who her parents were. The
Tavlos, not long in this country, were
too ignorant of American ways to find
them. But they took the little stranger
in and shared with her their scanty
fare as if she had been their own.
Neither Luigi Tavlo nor his wife
could find work. At the mills they
were told that only children were
wanted. Although it nearly broke their
hearts to do it they were finally forced
to sell their little daughter Media into
the bondage of the mills.
Now. Medals wages were barely
enough to support the Tavlos. and aft
er Mabel came things were harder than
ever. There seemed nothing to do but
send Mabel to do her share in the
noisy sitting mills with Media. Thus
it came about that Hanscomb's own
daughter was added to his child labor
victims.
The arduous work, the long hours,
the meager food quickly stole the
bloom of health from Mabel's cheeks.
Each morning required a greater effort
to drag her body to the mills. Each
night left her more exhausted.
One day Mabel fell in a faint Such
an occurrence was frequent in the
Hanscomb mills.
A fresh victim took Mabel's place at
the machine, and rough hands bore her
way on stretcher. At this very mo-
ment Mr. Hanscomb was entering the
mills-on his first visit there since Ma
