Cecil Spooner and her associate @ artists will. for the fifteenth week of their remarkably successful stock sea- son at the Lyric. next week, present one of the most important dramatic
 offerings in the history of of modern
 stage successes. Inside the Lines di- rectly following it's tremendous run in New Y ork, where all records for big att enda nee was broken as to produc- tions Of this style. This will be the first time this remarkable play has been released for stock production and consequently, is a costly one.
 I Inside the. Lines is by Earl Derr
 Biggers, wlloi wrote tI.e story of Seven Keys of Ba1dpate," from which George M Conan made a, re- | markab1e+ prosperous mystery. comedy. Inside the Lines Is a drama of ad- venture, romance, intrigue, secret agents, etc, using only as a back ground the present conflict in Europe.
 The action takes place at the Rock of Gibraltar, probably the most famous fortress in the world, far removed i from the actualities of the present
 struggle, yet as near as yesterday in
 similarity and tiuleliness. The story deals with spies, secret plans, and
 American tourists who are supplied
 with letters of credit on which it is 1 i'm possible to obtain money. It is in

 stern war, not a single shot is fired, and yet, the fact convincingly re- mains that it is very much of a war

 pense, action, intrigue and mingled
 with a sperabundance of humor. There is no booming of stage cannon,
 no mines are sprung, and no blood<is
 shed, yet it is play of the violence
 and determination of bitter war, for
 it uses the present European struggle
 as a basis.

ANDREW CARNEGIE 80 YESTERDAY, SEES PEACE i.
 PROJECT IN RUINS

Rounding out four-score. years of life yesterday Andrew Carnegie, steel
 magnate, pfhflanthropist and peace
 advocate, has lived to see his most cherished ambition -baffled and his drean-palace of peace in ruins. Prob
 ably no other man in the United States has felt so keenly the horrors of the European conflict, for to An drew Carnegie the cause of peace has been a passion, and he hoped, as the crowning achievement of his long life, to see the projects that he had initiated and fostered help to usher in the dawn of the era of universal arbitration. To the little old man, who yesterday joined theNranEs of the octogenarians, the war has brought keen and bitter disappointment. The sublime faith which he has cherished in his latter years has proved but a delnsion a wilI-O'--the-wiSp ideal which now seems farther than ever from accomp p1ishme The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and the Carnegie Peace Palace at the Hague have become but ironic mem

 made King Crossus of Lydia green with envy and his latter years to the distribution of that fortune in bene- factions so immense as to stagger the inagination, the Laird of Skibo has lived to see failure written upon his most mementous enterprise Yet he does not despair. The war, he believes may be the darkness that precedes tn e dawn and out of the roar of conflict and the we1ter of carnage the goddess of peace may emerge triumphant.
