The only thing that promised to be
shocking in 1.-THE Common Law" was
so completely the other way that any
part Of the audience which expected to
be shocked at the FL Paso theater last
night was sorely disappointed.
While the love of the artist and his
model was about to be born in the
studio, there promised to be a scene
that would at least SAVIOR of the Bo-
hemian, as the model retired to pre-
pare for her appearance for her pose
in the nude. When she came out with
the sheet wrapped about her, there
was momentary- expectation OF some
thing unconventional but at the cru
cial moment, the young woman turned
her back upon the audience, held out
her arms with the sheet stil behind
her and posed Tor the artist as he
faced the audiencel They tell a story
Of the kid in the gallery at one place
where the performance was given, who
shouted ooh, turn around" but this
may be a press agents yarn; anyhow,
1t did not happen in FL PasO last
night.
Many Of the strongest features OF
Robert ". eChambers's novel, which
was such a sensation when it made its
first appearance, have been incOr-
pOrate into the play, and, while some
Of the dramatic work is somewhat
crude, on the whole the performance is
a very cred1CabIe presentation of the
story told in the novel, and, if the
novel appealed, the play will please.
Miss Aileen Poe, the Valera OF the
play-the heroine, the artists model,
who discards her crepe for the drapery
of the mOdel-makes a quite capable
heroine. Her little .mannerisms and
girlish charm are very bewitching.
Miss Renee Noel presented the part
Of Rita Tevis artisticaIIy and thor
Oughly.
Other characters in the book repre-
scented in the play were Louis Neville,
Louis Querida, John Burleson, San
Ogilby, Jimmy, the Janitor and Mrs.
Neville, mother Of the artist.
While the drama pictures certain
phases Of life that are oftentime quite
unconventional, there is nothing
shocking about It; nothing that is vul-
gar, but on the whole it is quite an
entertaining little story. G. A. NJ.

Gus progeny in his native village. The
operetta has motto printed on the
program, namely, Victorious Ever Is
YOUTH and the story illustrates the
conflict between the old chieftain and
his son, also a musician. The latter
has turned from primitive Hungarian
music to the more conventional mas
terpieces, for which the father hates
the youth so that the latter runs aVrav
from home.
The father is about to marry a
fourth wife, a girl who loves his SON
so the struggle is both in art ana
heart. After many years retirement
from public playing the old fiddler is
persuaded by his friend, count Irinf.
to go to Paris and play at an enter
tainment. He finds his son a musician
in the same household, and the young
artists playing is greatly applauded
while, when the father plays, the au-
dience files or finding him "old
