DON MARQUIS PLAY,
THE OLD SOAK IS
PRAISED BY PAGE
Has "Antiquated Plot" but
Human Characters and
Witty Lines.
BY BRETT PAGE

New York, Sept. Off you hunger
to learn just what value a plot really
is in a modern play by all means go
10 THE Old Soak" which Arthur Hop
kins presents at the Plymouth theater
and which Don Marquis dramatized
from his daily newspaper column; For
the most antiquated plot imaginable
does duty there.
And if you thirst-perhaps we
shouldn't employ the word thirst in
describing The Old Soak" but still
well, if you thirst for human beings
on a stage and witty lines, don't per
NIT anything to keep you away. For,
despite the antiquity of its plot, The
Old Soak" is plcntifully supplied with
post-Nolstead ~personages from every
day life and is filled with chuckles
and outright laughs.
Not Offensive
One of the best things about this
play, however, is that it is not of
f%ensive. You laugh with and at the
old soak with his feeling for Ticker"
and you learn to love his despairing
but always forgiving wife. Besides,
there is that ex-bartender, Al, who
never fails to remember his old friend
and bring him samples of whatever
falls into his hands. And there's the
maId-of-aU-work whose announcement
"Mr. Hawley, Al is here always
brings a laugh. Then there is Daugh-
ter, who still loves the old soak, and
her %fiance, who firmly believes there
is still much good in him. And the
son who-we've bumped right into
that plot:
Son has a responsible position in
business. He has access TO the cash.
He loves a cabaret dancer who be-
fieves him the son of a millionaire,
so lavishly does he spend. But all the
assets his relatives possess-save the
mythical invention about which the old
soak is forever talking so humanity
and so laughably-are 100 shares of
a company now all but dead, his moth
er owns and keeps in the old clock on
the mantle.
Now the village hanker-a distant

the feeling for Ticker" does to one
family is not obtrusive, nevertheless
it is clear. 1t Is strong enough at
times TO bring tears-and it does.
As the old soak, Harry Beresford Is
admirable. 1t is a character part al
most as fiat" as that of Frank Ba-
cons in 'Lightnin,' and in his way
Beresford is as humanity engaging as
Bacon. His scene when, all alone. he
brings forth a hidden bottle and glass,
puts his foot on the brass rail of the
fireplace and leans on the mantle, in
vitins all his old friends to drink with
him, Is q masterpiece.
Dainty, charming Minnie Dupree as
the wife of the old soak is lovable.
She makes her liye-the counterpart
of thousands of, well-we ought not
to moralize.
Gentleman Lays an EGG
Then there in Robert f. O'Connor,
who plays Al the ex-bartender, now
bootlegger. His smile and his longing
for the refined society" he served in
the old days, are amazingly amusing
In his comedy the maid-of-all-work
twins him. She is played by Eva vii
liams. Al brings Mr.. Hawley some
sample it, so they try it out on the
parrot and then comes the maid with
the cage-Peter's cage-in her hand
Mr.. Hawley, all his life I've thought
Peter a gentleman. But | give him
one drink of that hootch and he laid
an egg"
The village banker is unctiously
.played by Robert McWade, in the old
time manner. The rest Of the cast
is adequate.
Here, then. We have a comedy OF
modern manners and of ancient mold,
retrieved by human beings and funny
lines from what might have been dire
failure. 1t is an amusing play and
also has magic to touch the heart as
well as the funny-bone.

The story of Take 1t From Me" IS
that of a youth who must conduct a

show q profit before coming into an

vinces him just before it is too late
that he must save his fortune.

INITIAL CARRIERS
HELDFOR DAMAGES
Nebraska Statutes Declared to
Be Holding by Supreme
Court Decision.

Washington, Nov. 13.-Nebraska
statutes making initial carriers liable
for damages to shipments and penaliz-
ing failure to settle claims within 60
days, were held unconstitutional today
by the supreme court in all respects
except that part of the law which i'm
poses counsel fees upon the carriers
The Chicago & Northwestern Rail
way company was the initial carrier in
shipments of hogs from various points
in Nebraska to the Omaha stockyards.
The Nye, Schneider Fowler company,
as c~onsignees, instituted suit against
the railway company to recover dam
ages for injuries alleged to have suf-
fered by the animals en- route and won
in the Nebraska courts. The railway
company appealed the case, contending
a part Of the transportation and the
delivery of the shipments was on the
line of the Union Stockyards company
and that the Nebraska statute holding
the initial carrier liable for condition
at time of delivery was invalid.

Toxic, Nov. 13.-Chan Tso-Lin, die
tator Of Manchuria. has informed the
japanese government that he is negoti-
ating with the government of the far
eastern republic Of Siberia at Chits

The Manchurian leader said he was

of those refugees from Vladivostok
and other portions of Siberia who had
fled to Korea.
Of 5000 refugees at Gensan, Korea,
are living aboard 20 steamers which
ordinarily have accommodations for
only a few hundred. The japanese
Red Cross is caring for them.
Dispatches from Vladivostok since
the japanese evacuated that place and
the last remnants of the czarist forces
in Russia had fled before the incoming
reds, stated that fragments of the
anti-red army were struggling toward
Mukden, capital of Manchuria, in the
hope that an alliance might be made
with Chang Tso-Lin for another drive
against the bolsheviki power.
