''WlTHIN THE LAW" is
SHUBERT ATTRACTION

A noted New York attorney COM
menting on the release of Banker
Morse remarked in the presence of
Bayard WELLER. the author of within
the Law" that with money person
can escape punishment for most any
crime on the statute books. 1t was
this remark that started Mr.. WELLER.
then a reporter on one of the New
York papers, to work on this powerful
drama, and it is legalized crime escap-
ing punishment through the assist
ance of expert legal advisers that
forms basic foundation of the play.
The success of this theme seems to
have been proven by the fact of
within the Law remaining in New
York city the length of time it has,
breaking all records for long runs in
the metropolis and duplicating it's
success in the civilized centres of the
entire world. In nearly every city in
which it has appeared hundreds of
disappointed theatregoers have been
turned away at every performance
and return engagements have invari-
ably been demanded by the disap-
pointed ones
Thisstirring drama has been booked
for an engagement of one week at
the Shubert Theatre, commencing
next Monday evening. Perhaps the
STealtSL ldCIOr IN the success Oh
within the Law" aside from its
wonderful construction and intensely
dramatic situation, is the timeliness
of the topics with which it deals, The
minimum wage scale. the police sys-
tenn. and the pitiful condition of the
working woman are all exploited in
a most truthful and dramatic man
ner in the play.
1t tells the story of a shop girl,
Mary Turner by name, underpaid and
underfed. who is unjustly accused of
theft which she did not commit.
Prior to the opening of the play stol-
en- goods have been discovered in her
locker, and "old man Glider" has had
her arrested, and through his influ-
ence with the district attorneys Of
fee he succeeds in having her SEN
fenced to three years I'm prison at
Sing Sing. Mary, conscious of her
innocence. obtains an interview with
her employer under the pretense of
giving him the solution of stopping
the thefts at his store. This he
grants. expecting a confession on her
part. Instead of this, however, the
shop-girl tells him to raise the sala-
ries to a living wage and thievery
will be unnecessary. Glider angrily
orders her away to prison, and the act
closes with the girl breathing ven-
geance.

of having been the first Colorado op-
orator to sign the union scale de-
manded by the newly organized min
ers Of the state. He told the commit
tee that he had signed this scale Oct
6. 1913. or about two weeks after the
calling OF the strike
My experience with the union has
been such that l will never treat with
this organization again." he said
earnestly at the conclusion of his tes-
tImony. They violated practically
every provision of the agreement
made and finally ended by calling
strike on me at the time that was
in another state attending to some
necessary business"

whom all who knew him loved for
his personal qualities and sterling
worth He was abOveaIi things a
Christian gentleman and carried
those sterling qualities into all that
