“Rafftss.”
"Raffles" Is frankly a detective styry
an*
told in a speech and action, with abdi
dant suspense and surprise, on the
stage. It Is also the moat Interesting
detective story thnt has been told there
since the days of "Jim, the Penman.”
Better still. It has a central character,
beside whom 'The Penman" was only a
commonplace forger who affected a re
spectable life In respectable surround-
Inn. Raffles is a man of the world,
sportsman, a bit of a philosopher, even
a sentimentalist, as well as an uncom
monly clever thief. Mr. Kent blends
these three sides of the character Into
a plausible and highly Interesting hu
man figure. It la the Ingenious and ths
moat persuasive piece of acting he has
done In many a day. Beats are now on
sale at the Orand box office.
