"How Hearts Are Broken." It Is promised that the sensational and emotional drama, "Hon- Hearts Are Broken,” which Is being announced at the Bijou for this week, will establish Itself locally as one of the season's most prominent dramatic favorites. The story centers about a poor and beauti ful girl who la secretly married and later deserted by n wealthy, but un- irinclpled man of the world. The ac- Ion of the play takes plhce In a pic turesque village on the seaconst of Maine, where the presence of summer visitors from, the cities nnd the simple natives offer a wide contrast of char acters In the unfolding of the plot. Circumstances, however, connect them In a series of novel nnd original events, and Interesting dlnlngues, all of which cause them to blend In a harmony of realism that Is seldom found upon the stage, "Coming Thro’ the Rye.” Some of the notable song hits In “Coming Thro’ the Rye” are ”1 Know a Girl Like You,” 'It Must be Love.” ‘Stage Struck Girls,” "My Broncho Boy," "What Do You Think of That?” In My Cause" and the "Sandman." Mnny of theap hnve nlrendy found their way In the street organ repertoire and upon musical programs nt dunces, and bctwccn-the-act selections In thea ters. This Is a distinction which song writers covet. "Coming Thro’ the Rye" Is nnnounccd as one of the Grand's early bookings. ATHLETESBLESSED * BY POPE PIUS X TAKES OWN LIFE TO CHEAT JAIL Troy. N.
