COLONIAL THEATRE.
iThe Fight" Same Author as "Within
 the Law"-Five Reel Feature.

One of the greatest successes of the Hudson theatre in New York for several seasons was The Fight, a drama dealing with a struggle of a woman against corruption of city of which she wants to be mayor. Mar garet WycherIy, famous the world over, plays the part of Jane Thomas, who is rich, lovely, young and owns bank. Moreover, she is ambitious to clean up things" when she be- comes mayor Her cadidacy raised havoc amongst the crooked politicians and vice merchants of the city. So they sought to compromise her in pub lie esteem by inveigling her to road house, of questionable character, and surreptitiously photographing her in the company of man. The scheme failed, because girl protege of hers warned Jane and took her place. Then they tried to ruin lanes bank by a manufactured run upon it, and failed again. Finally, Vance, a dance hall keeper, when Jane called upon him to release a girl who had been decoyed into his den of infamy, locked her in a room, and threatened her life. But she was rescued and Vance was killed Jane was elected mayor, and she gave her hand and heart to the man, a . doctor, who had been faithful to her in her fight" Margaret Wycherly in the character of Jane, has fine act ing part; and John Kellerd, as Vance, the dance hall keeper, is villainous in- deed A very valuable dog plays an important part in the production. The Fight is a full and varied offering, narrative as well as dramatic; sym pathy is with Jane all through in her heavy handicap. And it is quite def1- cient in any episodes of an objection able character; again the incidents are feasible, so feasible that you can look upon the photoplay as, on the whole, true to life. Don't miss this feature today.
