"?o important is the subject matter and 50 radically is it treated." says an announcement by the Medical Reiew of Reviews, under whose auspice the committee was formed, "that tho committee has decided to restrict attendance to those who have a legitimate interest in social topics and v ho will nid afterward in disseminating the poignant lesson of the tragedy.' The central character in "Tae Unhorn" is a youn woman who, !ecause of the taint of epilepsy and a strain of alcoholism 'in her family, frankly iMls her husband that she wishes no children. When she is about to become a mother, she pleads for an illegal operation, but is unable to procure one. The tragedy reaches it climax when the hoy lias prown to manhood.

Tomorrow's feature is "The Circular Path." an intensely emotional photo-drama In three acts, said to be exceptionally well adapted for the senilis of Henry 15. Walthall, who takes the leading part. Mr. Walthall, a-s the Hcv. Darwin Kirhy, is deeply in love with a woman uiven to all the Kaities of life. She refuses to devote herself to th duties of a minister's wife, and finally tho preacher ives up his pulpit for the loe of the girl. He is not a success In any other venture, and after passing through all Forts of ill luck, he finally return to the ministry again and his w'.e makes up her mind to aid him in iris work. The regular release of the serial picture "Neal of the Nay" and the Selig weekly of current news will also he shown.

I presented, by a company of Rroadway j notables. Amy Leslie has described it In the Chicago News as "furiously dramatic" and puid Mr. Whiteside the tribute of Faying: "He acts its big scenes with force and splendor." Charles Collins in the livening Port was equally enthusiastic, declaring: "Tiere is power and meat in the .tory. Mr. Whiteside has eloquence, charm and a flaming sense of the theater." Richard IJttle in the Chicago Herald said: "It is the best thing Mr. Whiteside has ever done." And the critic of the Chicago Kxaminer agreed thai "he has

repeated his success of 'The Melting Pot'."

Indeed Mr. Whiteside has heen '. greeted with such an ovation in "The ragged Messenger" as is seldom ac

corded a star on the first presentation of a new play. It is the habit of the public to recall the, star who has won a tremendous triumph in a certain part by the role with which his name has long been identified. So it is a convincing evidence of the overwhelming success of "The Ragged Messenger" that it has swept his admirers off their feet, ho that they forget his characterizations of "Tho Typhoon" and "The Melting Pot" in the. thrills and enthusiasms Inspired by this new und fascinating story.

BOYS ARE BURIED ALIVE

MCSCATINR. la.. Oct. 1". Four boys were buried alive yesterday in the collapse of a cave they had excavated in the side of a hill. The billed: John daullir. 14 years old; harles Reckcy, 1.": Harry I Davidson, DJ: fjlen Thompson, colored; 13. Thn boys had planned to cook a supper in the cave lat night.

at Tin: oliyi:k. "Tlir Lure," the greatest of all white slave plays, will be presented for the last time hv the Oliver Players tonight at the Oliver theatei. This famous Troduction has certainly dono a wonderful husluess hero, and from all indications it will be greeted hy a packed house, as the advance sale for tonight is very large and hy this evening seats will he at a premium. Starting with the matinee tomorrow, "The Girl He Couldn't Huy- will be presented. This is a very original play the plot is decidedly different from any this clever company has presented here so far. It deals with the evils of narcotics, such as morphine, opium and dope of all kinds. It was to abolish this evil that the United States government had a law passed in the last session of congress that prohibits the sale of these drugs, etc. It was in this connection that the play was written, as it shows the awful results that follow when a person becomes addicted to the use of these opiates. There are a great many good comedy scenes throughout the , lay and the management wants to go on record as promising one of the best, if not the best, production that this company has ever presented here.

AT Tin: OKPIIFXM. Final performance will he given todav of the original musical tabloid.

produced by Menlo Moore and entitled "A Dress Rehearsal." The unique ncss of the idea which exposes the methods of the producers of musical comedies has met with approval, many comedy scenes are presented during the opening act, which takes place on the hare stage of a theater, during rehearsal. The two acts of the piece illustrate a dream of the author, and goes back to an early period in Fngland, offering an excuse for elaborate costuming and scenic effects. The song numbers are pleasing. On Thursday a new bill of vaudeville will be presented featuring "The Six Water Lilies" in a daring diving act. The shapely girls arc- een in high and fancy diving and disporting in an immense tank of water, which occupies nearly the entire stage. On both Thursday and Friday, at the 'J o'clock shows, amateur divers from this city will compete for handsome cups. On the same bill will be seen the live musical liormans, featuring girbi and boys who play drums, cornets and introduce musical and dancing specialties. George Roesner, who presents original character impersonations. Mills and Lockwood offering rural comedy types and Kremka brothers, comedy acrobats, complete

the bill.

GREEK RESERVISTS RETURN TO GOTHAM NRW YORK. Oct. 13. The Greek steamer Vasilefs Constantines. which sailed for Pirus at midnight with more than 2,0 vO reservists on board was recalled by wireless soon after she had passed out of the Alhrose channel Tuesday and ordered to remain in anchor at quarantine until further notice. The suddenness of the recall, occasioned by the receipt here of a cablegram from the Greek government by Nicholas Galanos, agent for the line, and the fact that the Greek consul here had not been apprised of the situation, created considerable discussion in shipping circles. It was hinted that the reason' might be that Greece intended after all to enter the war on the German side and sent the Constantinos and the reservists back to New York to prevent capture by the'Rritish. Another report said that Greece having decided to remain neutral had no use for the men and desired them to return to their work in this country.
