"The High Road" the title of the
play in which Mrs Fiske is to appear
at the Grand on Saturday, November
90, is somewhat symbolical in that it
refers to the road through life taken by
Mary Page in her quest for, first the
beauty of the world, and, afterwards,
for career of usefulness in it. The
story of the play is one of woman Is
spiritual progression from sordid and
unhappy youth, through period of lux
ury and worldly glamour followed by
wears of devotion to humanity, to a
final triumph of public eminence and
personal happiness. This is the second
year of the play, in which Mrs. Fiske
has achieved notable success.

sociation against the City of Salem,
Attorney Carson said that the city can.
not get prohibition until it changed its
charter under the amendment to the
constitution voted by the people of the
state in 1908. The attorney said that all
the people present in the court room
were not lawyers, and they did not
profess to be, and the reading of this
amendment would be instructive to
them. He then quoted the amendment
section.
Faulty Law Menace.
Following Attorney Carson, Attorney
McNary said that, providing the cleo
tions being contested now were passed
and declared, every man and woman ar
rested on the charge of violating them
would appeal to the higher courts on
the grounds that they were unconsti-
tutional. He declared that the people,
as whole, must obey the law, in the

Attorney McNary. contended that the
idea prevailing to an extent to the eff
feet that the cases at hand are for the

people is absolutely wrong. He said
