Thl. truly great drama comes to town nfter a two aea.on. run In New until that past msstor of sta-s pronounced It perfect. ,«i TW story of the play Is l ‘ nus . n( ! interest, because of Its ? n ,J force. Tho scene ofthe first act is laid at the ranch of Philip Jordan, in the desert of the glia In Art*°nj. Philip’s wife Is about to start for San- Francisco, and he ^ ranch to take her to the train. Dr. Newbury, a young physician from Massachusetts, la caUed out to aUend a man with a broken leg, and WJ» Jordan. Philip's sister who hss come out from MassRchusettii.^to help her brother. Is left alone In the house. The ranch Is* attacked bjT Ghent. Dutch and Pedro. th r ee de#p«ra does, and Ruth is captured. • They are about to throw dice for ber, when she appeals to Ghent to savo her. offering to become hls wife. He accepts her offer, buys off the Mexican with a necklace of gold nuggeta and wound* the other In a duel. When ho returns to tho house to claim Ruth he secs tnc horror which she has for him ami pur posely lets her gain possession of hi* cent. Meanwhile she repulses efforts at /reconciliation with Ill-concealed scorn and aversion, while lie endures aU with'rough but Wistful stoicism. Finally! her brother and other old trace her t . lu-r rotr<;U l ... ... he tries to offer a bold and cheerful countenance, vehemently de fending her-husband against the up- braldlnfs of her indignant brother, but when—-after a passionate scene with Stephen In which she tells how ghe has striven in vain to overcome revolver. She starts to kill harself, but her nerve falls hbr. Ghent finally cowes her and she goos with to tho nearest Justice of tho peace to be married, leaving a noto to tell her brother that sho has eloped. In the second act the obligation has been kept and tho strangely wedded pair are living In a cabin In the Cata lina mountains. Stephen Ghent, the man, has seen a great light. The spec tacle of the woman crushed by her humiliation, yet true to her soul, has -j. v. i™ ..mil., hi. nwn hriit.llltn. made him realize hls own brutalltq, having reawakened In him the better Instincts of hls original nature and aroused In him the ambition to win by fair means what ho has possessed himself of by foul. He has discov ered gold qn Is reservation, Is going has taken from hls heart hope and .J RRR respect. As he is about to withdraw to be rich and can offer hls wife lux- raho melts, throws the string of nug- ury and power. But the Iron has entered Into her soul. Sho perceives that there ,1s th- essence of a true manliness In her captor, but the fact that sho was bought with a price rankles In her heart and puts a bar rier—a great dlvldo—betweep Mm and Charles Dalton, Effia Shannon and Herbert Kelley. to go again.

The career of James Young, the star of "Drown of Harvard" which will lie presented under the business manage ment of the Bhuberts at the Grand Opera House on Saturday, November 7. is nn Illustration that success In the theatrical world Is. attained only after long study and ttraJese efforts.

At the death of the great matter, Mr. Young passed on to ngagements In leading roles with such itVs as Sir Henry Irving. Mrs. Flske. /vnnlo Russell and Vlolra Allen, hls Per formance of Sebastian, the twin brother In tho latter's production of "Twelfth Night" being wldoly commented upon as an especially artistic effort. * It was during this engagement that "Brown of Harvard" was written for him by hls wife, Rida Johnson Young, but being under contract himself, he seised upon an opportunity of having the play produced and allowed Mr. Harry Wood ruff to receive first honors In a Broad way run which lasted for ovor a year at tho Princess theater. Now that he la free, he again., after nine years, starts as a star, this time, under a widely known management and wlvh & tried and successful play which has hern booked In all the leading week stands throughout tho country. “THE TRAITOR. 1 The costuming of any play requires much care and thought and In some cases, when the scenes are laid In tho distant past, weeks of research aro nec essary before, absolute accuracy Is at tained In design, cloths and colorlnga.

Of course they aro held In detestation by •v'try- ono and naturally It Is cx;remely difficult to find one of tho red robes that they wore to aerve as n pattern. It waa only through the wide acquaintance that Mr. Dixon has throughout the south that this original red robe waa found. It Is doubtful If any manager spends as much time and care upon cosiuinlng a modern plsy As George If. Brennan has spent upon "The Traitor."
