Alice Brady comes to the Strand today in The Dancers Peril" a romance of the Russian Imperial Ballet.
 Lola Cortez was young French beauty and became the morganatic wife of the Grand Duke Alexis. But the court at Petrograd wouldn't stand for Lola and became so "het up that they actually plotted to kill her. Alexis slipped her out of the back yard, however, just before the assassins arrived and Lola beat it back to Paris, leaving Vasta Mascova, their young daughter, with Alexis
 In the course of time Vasta becomes the premiere danseuse of the Russian imperial ballet. Michael Pavloff the inn presario for the ballet, was a gay old dog and former admrer of Vasta s mother. Upon seeing Vasta, however he transfers his adoration to the daughter and selects her as one of the ballet to be sent by the government to Paris In Paris he attempts his conquest of the girl and has her abducted and locked in his apartments. But Lola learns of her daughters predicament and in a very thrilling scene shoots Michael to death The Grand Duke appears and does the heroic by claiming he killed the "willyun in defense of his wife's honor. His state ment goes over big and Lola, the wife and the Grand Duke Alexis, the husband and Vasta the daughter, are again a re- united happy little family.

The veterans, under whose auspices the shows are playing, are very en- thusiastic over the success so far and it is hoped before the week-e they will have realized enough from this venture to pay all their expenses to their reunion at Washington.
 The Royal Midget theatre opened to the public for the first time here last night and it was a wonderful attrac- tion.
 One of the "cutest" attractions is the Royal Midgets, which occupies a conspicuous place on the midway.

PRISONERS MUTINY
 IN THE COUNTY JAIL
Negro Prisoners Break Jail Furniture and Fixtures
 Because Locked Up

Resentment at being locked up in their cells and denied the limited freedom of the jail. on account of the discovery of an attempt at jail breaking. the negro prisoners confined in the county jail went on a rampage yesterday morning and practically destroyed everything tearable or breakable in their cells. Bunks were wrecked. plumbing fixtures broken, blau- kets torn to shreds, milk bottles broken, were among the methods employed by the prisoners to express their displeas- ure at being locked up for the acts of others.
 Sheriff Batson and force of depu- ties succeeded in quieting the negroes and when order was restored every cell was searched and the damage repaired as soon as possible. It is understood that the matter will be submitted to the grand jury now in session for investigation.
 The negroes who attempted to break jail were Sercy Persons who pleaded guilty to a charge of murder and was given a life sentence; Charles Wilkins, who was convicted of murder by jury and given 20 years; and Cain McSpattan. who was given 15 years for murder. The negroes had secured a steel saw frame and a. number of saws and had attempted to cut their way through a heavy steel lattice at the back of their cell, but were discovered before their escape was pos sible
