1t may be necessary for the edi-
tor Of this indispensable family
journal to explain to any of his
friends whom he has passed on the
street during the week with SEEM
ing hauteur, that this unwonted ex-
hibition Of self importance was not
occasioned by a desire to offend or
be less cordial than heretofore, but
may be attributed solely to the fact
that on flag day he received a tele-
gram that nine pound girl had
arrived at the home Of the E. d.
Thorndike family in Willow Greek,
Mont, and so having to play the
part Of grandfather it would not be
seemly or appropriate to carry on
as kiddish and unrestrained as here

fed and staid carriage must Of

WOMAN and THE Law
Bentley Grand Theater, Wednesday
Evenin0, June 26

Based on the internationally
sensational De Saulles case,
which so shocked the United
States and South America and
which was discussed in every
home in the country, it is said,
the thrilling moment when the
woman who has slain for the
sake of her child faces the jury
which is to decide her fate, de-
picts situation to hold the most
hardened play goer spellbound.
Meeting q beautiful heiress in
South America, young Ameri.
can college man marries her and
brings her to New York.
For time all goes well with
them. The bride is happy in
the nome, which her husband
has made for her in the great
city and she is slow to realize
how he is bored at her company
and longs for his old companions
OF the gay life Of the city.
After a child is born to them,
he soon wearies and makes life
hideous for her with his esca.
pades with notorious women.
She bears with him until he
takes her child from her. Then
the elemental passions leap to
the surface, she kills him, and is
forced to face the law. 1t is
left to the jury to decide her fate.
The question placed squarely
before them is the question that
this play places squarely before
every person who sees it thrown
on the screen:
Are there provocations which
justify a woman to kill?
And the jury decides in a
scene that will live long in the
memory of everyone who sees it.
