In public utterances as philosopher
and wit and as playwright who wears
the toga and purple stripe, DR.. Louis
X. Anspacfer has exclaimed upon plays
of the physical melodrama, featuring
hairbreadth escapes and colossal pranks
of fortune. And contrariwise he has
raptly prophesied the theater of ideas,
the protagonist of the social and
ethical play. Yet in "That Day" he
has not disdained the antics of for
tune, though somewhat refining on
grosser devises of melodrama, which
lends him, If not tn arm, at least the
forefnger of coincidence.
From one to whom much has been
given much must be expected, and per-
haps word of preparation should be
conveyed to the playgoer who, laying
much store by the banner of noblesse
oblige, looks to DR.. Anspacher to keep
the faith. AS narrative sufficiently
engaging to entertain an evening in
the theater embodied forth in person
ages fairly interesting, "That Day" JUS
titles its existence, which of course
suffices the house Of entertainment;
and no one would ask more, but for an
expectation that the prophets mantle
would smite the Red Sea waters.
The author presents a pair-Hedda
Hopper and Alfred Swenson-in an ir-
regular relation, their love blooming
beyond the walls of the conventional
garden. Yet the roots of the flower
are planted deep in the conventional
soil.
Twin sets of circumstances are ar
ranged, so that the wronged wife sus-
poets and is about to name as core
spondent another woman than the wild
honeysuckle from whom her errant
spouse has finally disenggged himself
A blackmailing lawyer (Frederick
TruesdelD proceeds to make the moral
pay dearly for their "con-
traband luxuries."
Hedda Hooper, with unshriven bosom,
takes as her lawful mate country
physician Robert MacQuarrie), and the
conflict turns on the trap in which she
finds herself when, in order to save the
innocent woman, it becomes necessary
to unbreast the truth.
The unhappy wife confesses that she
considered herself an honest woman
when she gave herself to her lover, but
that she did not see clearly at the time
that love was not enough. And it is
when she starts to leave his roof that
the husband also realizes that love is
not enough and that unto love must be
added hope and faith, and the greatest
of these is faith. Miss Hopper por-
trays with sympathy and intelligence

He is madly in love with Zareda. who

by reading the crystal to her rich and
fatuous friends. The title hero says

UP. His young son, Ivan, is also madiy
in love with Zareda and she with him,
sends his boy to war and enlists the
aid of his friend, the Marquis Ferroni,
to help him win Zareda. But the
Marquis falls in love with Zareda, too,
and after killing the old Baron, with
the assistance of pet ape which she
harbors along with a Persian cat and
bowl Of goldfish, she marrics the
Marquis for his money.
When Ivan returns from the war she
forces her husband to challenge him,
knowing that he cannot stand up under
the skill of the younger man with the
foils. 1t all happens as she plans.
The husband falls to the ground

Still, with all that, he manages to live
n couple Of days and arrange the
incest little revenge that ever cheered
the wounded heart Of any man. The
tale is SO horrible that probably the
only way it could be done on the
screen was the way Ingram did it, and
it is interesting in spite of it's many
weak spots.
You can't help feeling that Ferroni
is pretty husky for dying man, how
ever. He drags people up and down
stairs and hurls them about quite
easily just before he dies.
Lewis Stone gives an excellent per-
formance in this part, but 1t seems
strange not to see him playing the
hero. Others who contributed to the
enjoyment of the evening were Edward
Connolly as the old Baron, Hughie
Mack as the innkeeper, Pomeroy Can
non as the novelist and Gene Pouyet,
John George, Jesse Weldon, Hyman
Binunsky and Joe Martin in the less
important roles. The monkey, which
figured so largely in the plot, is one
of the most uncanny animals we ever
have seen, He looks as though he
would stick up his nose at Darwin and
his theories.

of $25O,OOO Rum T'hefts

The Federal rand jury is expected te
hand up indictments to-day against
thirty individuals, including a former
city magistrate and several prohibition
enforcement agents, in connection with
the disappearance from several govern
ment warehouses here Of liquor valued
Mt $250,o0o. Recent whisky thefts in
other parts Of the country are said
to total s5,oOo,ooo
The indictments are believed to be
based on evidence submitted to the
grand jury by Major John Holley Clark
jr, of the Unite d States District Attor-
ney's staff. 1t was Said at the Federal
building yesterday that prohibition
agents are alleged to be directly con-
cerned with the thefts. One officer
was trapped by the Investigators, and
after being severely grilled is said to
have confessed his part in the looting.
This confession is declared to involve
at least one high official of the enforce
ment forces in this city.
The revelations were checkd up and
the bank deposits of the suspects were
put under careful scrutiny. These de-
posts are reported to have been in
creased to an extent that amazed the
Investigators, 1t is charged, and led
to the examination Of other officers,
who also are said to have confessed.
Abraham Toplitz, an enforcement
agent, was reli,ved of his badge at Pro-
hibition Headquarters yesterday, but
was dropped from the pay roll pending
a further inquiry into the charge that
he accepted bribe. He was arraigned
before United States Commissioner
Hitchcock and held in $4,000 bail.
Major Clark alleged that, on August 2,
