THE Unwritten Law is a melodrama
from the hand of Edwin Milton Royle,
whom we thought would know better. 1t
| had its opening at the Fulton Friday
night. II is described as a play with
n punch" 1t has the punch well
enough, but New York audiences have
been pummeled so much during the past
two or three seasons by playwrights
ohsessed with the punch idea, that
they no longer look upon a punch as
a stimulant, at least not after the
twenty-sixth round.
The Unmritten Law is a very sor-
did play. And so far as one can see
with the naked eye, it has no reason
for existing. The story is that of re-
fined young woman who is dragged down
into poverty and toll by the drunkenness
of her husband. The latter finally deserts
her with several children on her hands.
Then, of course, enters the inevitabl
man. He is an Irish saloonkeeper The
deserted mother takes him in for the
sake of the children" They live to-
gether as man and wife. The next step,
naturally is the entrance of the other
woman. She is a pert. painted lady whose

The Tai-Sho Tenno is the Official name

day addressed the Emperor as Yoshihito.
but this form OF address is peculiar tc
foreign usage. 1t was doubtless correct
In a message of this character. but In
Japan the present Emperor Is always
known as the Tai-Sho Tenno.
The Emperor was born on August u.
1879. He became Emperor on July 80. 1872
He was the third son of his father. his
brothers having died each in babyhood.
The present Emperor was proclaimed heir
apparent on August 81. 1857. and Crown
Prince on November 3. 1855. He was
married on May 10. 1900. to Princess Sad
sko. fourth daughter Of the late Prince
Kujo. There are three sons of the union.
The Emperor when a child suffered
constantly with illness and when
youth his health for time was con-
sidered to be in a very precarious state.
but his treatment by DR.. Erwin o. E.
Won Baelz. an eminent German who had
been appointed physician to the imperial
household, improved his condition to,
such an extent that in later years. al
though far from robust, he has been
