oRPHEUM PATRONS TO
VIEW 1.-THE COMMON LAW

Play adaptations from books which
have met with more than ordinary
reading approval have come ana
gone. some of them have scarcely
lived long enough to be of passing
memory, while now and then a play
founded upon fiction arrives at a
very successful point whereby the
public have been treated to dra-
matte event much more edifying
than could be gained through the
medium of an original stage story.
1.-THE Common Law" that extremely
popular novel written by Robert w.
Chambers. who is responsible for
many other works which have In
vited world wide attention. was put
In dramatic form through the in
strumentality of Manager A. H.
Woods toward the end of last season.
In preparing THE Common Law
for the stage no attempt was maze
to adhere too closely to the text as
printed in the pages of Mr.. Cham
bers's book; however, the real sum.
and substance was allowed to per-
meate and these elements were added
to by the introduction of certain dra-
matte laws with a view of quickening
the action and bringing the story
more tersely and substantially to the
audience. OF course, the 5ensatipnal
points of interest in The Common
Laws" original story were permitted
the greatest amount of discretc free
doom and the melodramatjc situa-
tons were led up to in a more eScit-
ing manner. Thus, giving to the play
a far greater compelling force as a
drama of skill and potency than
could otherwise have resulted by fol-
lowing tho book lines too closely.
"The Common Law" Is sure to
prove a notable attraction at the
Orpheum Theatre next week, where 1t
will be offered with a cast of exceed
ing merit and production well caicu-
lated to warrant the high favor ac-
corded it in every direction.
On Monday evening, September %.
K!aw Il Erlanger's massive produc-
ton of 1.-THE Round Up win be seen
at the Orpheum Theatre. Ever since
the announcement that this success
full play was booked there has been
a steady demand for reservations. 1t
will be the first time THE Round
Up can be seen at popular prices
and the popular Orpheum Theatre
will surely have capacity crowds at
every performance. One hundred
people, twenty horses and four car
loads of scenery viii be utilized in
this great story of the plains.

8RCWNELL-SToRK co. IN
STRONG FITCH DRAMA

For the fourth and final week of
the engagement of the BrownelI-
iStork Stock Company, at the Schubert
Theatre. commencing Monday night,
the attraction will be Clyde Fitch's
famous drama. "a Woman in the
Case" in which Miss Blanch Walsh
made big success in New York city
and on the road.
"A Woman in the Case" provides
almost an ideal role for Miss Mubel
Brownell. that of a heroic wife, who,
IN order to clear her husbands name
from charge of murder. becomes
friendly with Claire Foster. who had
been friend of the husband in the
DAYS before his marriage.
Mr. Stork has a splendid opportu-
nifty to give full scope to his artistic
abilities in the portrayal of the
wrongfully accused husband, while
equally good roles are provided for
the other leading members of the
company.
Briefly the story of "A Woman in
the Case" b as follows: When Mr..
and Mrs. Julian Rolfe return from
their honeymoon and are entertain
tng their immediate friends an arti-
Gle appears in a newspaper insinu-
atlng that the death of Philip Long
may not have been due TO suicide, as
alleged. and stating that the last per-
son seen with Long was Julian Rolfe,
and that they had parted after a bit
ter quarrel.
Rolfe is arrested and certain reve-
1ations of his past life come out, and
one of the incidents concerns Claire
Foster. woman of degraded charac-
ter. once friend of RoIfes. and who
he had learned Long was about to
marry. Convinced that Claire Fos-
ter knows the truth about Longs
death. Mrs. Rolfe. played by Miss
Brownell. takes a fiat in the same
apartment house with the Foster
woman and becomes friends with her
i'll an effort to worm from her her
confidence.
She succeeds in all but the one
thing she most desires. the disclosure
that will save her husbands life. In
the third act Mrs. Rolfe succeeds in
getting the Foster woman to talk by
plying her with liquor. and in a scene
that gives Miss Brownell an oppor-
tunity for some splendid emotional
acting. finally gets the secret from
the Forest woman.
The drama is one of the strongest
ever written by Clyde Fitch. and the
production by the Brownell- Stork
Company promises to be high-class
in every respect.
