New Play at the Broad Puts
Curious Trimmings on Ordin-
ary Sort of Melodrama

It was n very curious production that
came to the Broad Street Theatre last
night. And II grew "curiouser and curl
ouser," as Alice once said. Which does
not mean that Her Price" hasn't some
excellent things about It, including an
admirable amount Of originality and am
btion.
In the first place, somebody has put
his brains to work on the technical
problem of quick changes, a thing that
the American stage has almost entirely
neglected. The result is n modification
of the revolving and sliding stages OF
Europe, by which large platforms with
the settings upon them swing into line
with the footlights as needed. But-here
comes the first curious element - this
means a raised stage to act upon. The
management has put n gold picture frame
around the platform and the scenery.
With the small size OF the settings-which
are so much nearer reality In size than
anything we are used that they seem
strangely like playthings-the whole effect
suggests an odd sort of amateur theat-
tricals Obviously n little of this might
be avoided by cutting out the theatres
footlghts. which light UP the gold frame,
by abolishing the gold Itself and by han
ding the platforms as part of an artistic
design, as Joseph Urban has done in
operate settings.
"Her Price" grew ''curiouser' as we
heard the heroine command the hero to
read n play which was going to bring in
the money they needed so badly, and as we
began to sense that the rest OF the drama
was going to be that play. And it was a
play fast enough, If lines count for any
thing. Lottie NJ. Meaney has collected al
most all the old standbys of melodrama
from But I'm her mother, you KNOW"
to mo, this Is the end!" Even servant
who says, Whom do you mean2" and n
mistress who replies "You know who l
mean" couldn't create reality or charac-
terization by themselves.
As for the substance of the action, II is
no more remarkable or improbable than
most melodramas. A girl sent up to
her to steal for him and then marries
another, comes for aid when she is re-
leased. He is having drunken tiff with
his rich wife, murders her to keep her
from altering her will "in the morning."
and throws the crime on the girl An
other sentence, but this time an escape
and n very original sort of revenge. She
inoculates herself with leprosy, visits his
room at the point of gun - he Is
married again. this time for love-com-
promises him, bites his wrist. and sits the
night out until, she asserts. they are both
infected. Then bliss together as members
of some South Sea leper colony! After
that little epilogue to see the hero of the
first scene finish reading the play.
Now great many plays have got away
with more preposterous tales than this.
But they haven't given any one a mo-
ment's excuse for taking them snicker-
ingy. They haven't ventured on plat
form stages or pressed the trail of the
movies so close as to indulge in two shifts
of scene to show both ends of a phone

Police Court Chronicles

It requires considerable enthusiasm to
be a successful Kris Kingle One has to
be an optlmist and wear continuous
smile, which makes a pleasant contrast
with the snowy whskers. There were
two such Krlss Kingles on Frankford
avenue today. They were engaged in dis
tributlng crc llars, which set forth the
fact that q certain store was dispensing
candies at bargain prices. As proof that
the candy was good, each Kris had a
pocketfu of sweets which he let the kids
sample as he met them en- route.
In the course of their wandering both
Krisses got hungry, and they dropped
into place which bore the announce
ment that n full meal, not to say a good
drink, could be obtained for the meagre
sum of a lonely dime. It was a fatal
stop. Both the Santa Clauses found 1t
much more agreeable on the inside than
they did outside. They also figured out
that they could advertise the candy just
as well by giving II TO the men who came
for drinks as to the kids who really didn't
have any money anyhow.
1t so happened that the Kris Kingles
knew quite a few patrons of this way

Mrs. Lizzie St. John

Mrs. Lizzie St. John, wife OF
Mr.. w. H. St. John. died at her
home in Tupelo Thursday night,
July %, after an illness of ten
days duration, aged 33 years.
Mrs. st. John was reared in
Alcorn county, and after her
marriage removed with her hus-
band to Tupelo, where they have
resided for the past ten years.
She leaves six children, three
boys and three girls, besides her
husband, two brothers and one
sister and numerous other rela-
tives to mourn her taking away.
She was a devout member OF
the Methodist church, and by her
exemplary life and sweet wo-
manly ways drew around her a
host of friends who deeply regret
her untimely death, and extend
deepest sympathy to the be-
reaved family.
The funeral took place from
the family residence Friday af-
ternoon, and the remains were
followed to their last resting
place in Glenwood cemetery by a
large concourse of sorrowing rel
atives and friends and laid away
by loving hands to await the
coming of the time when the re-
union will take place:
Owing to the absence of her
pastor, Rev. Parks, of the Meth
odist church, the services were
conducted by Rev. T. j. Barks-
dale. pastor of the Baptist
church.
The Journal extends sympathy
to the bereaved husband and
other members of the family.
