To save her son from disgrace, Jacqueline kills Laroque and is arrested for murder. She is arrested and refuses to give her name, saying merely that she is Madame X. Raymond, now a promising young lawyer, is selected to defend her in court. The trial of the woman of mystery is a powerfully dramatic scene. The sons earnest plea for the woman who unknown to him is his mother, is one of the most impressive and sensational ever written. She is acquitted but death is near and before her husband can be summoned to affect a reconciliation she dies, content and happy in having found her son. The title role provides Miss Mary Newton with one of the most powerful acting roles of her career. Ralph Cloninger will be seen as Raymond, son of the accused woman, the role taken by Mary Newton. DUNCAN SISTERS DRAW BIG CROWDS SALT LAKE THEATRE It is to be deplored that the Duncan Sisters playing the Salt Lake theatre the first three days of the week could not have been had for the entire week. Their play of Topsy and Eva drew a packed house at every performance and hundreds of people were turned away because there was no room left to take care of them. This musical comedy based upon southern plantation life during the early colonial days, was wonderfully staged. The scenery and the old plantation homes buried in a wealth of flowers and wooded scenes was an ideal setting for the many pretty and beautifully dressed girls of prominent white families, and the negro boys and girls, that took part in the festivities of the day. The singing and dancing, especially the singing, carried one away in a dream. Then came the sale of mortgaged negroes and their children, with the following pain and anguish as can only follow such transactions. The theme of the play was beautifully carried out from beginning to end. The Duncan sisters will not be forgotten for a long time. This pair of kids was the hit of the town, and while they were a big part of the show, they had admirable support from a stellar cast. It is a show that could have played here at least one week to packed houses. n, iMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiii2 I j WILKES I THE ATRE All Next I Every Nlsrlit at 8:30 Prices I 25c, 50c, 75c, SI.

Republicans are beginning to stir and are talking of getting ready for the coming fall campaign when one senator and two congressmen are to be elected to Congress, together with state and county offices to be filled with the same or new faces. At the meeting held there was gen eral discussion of plans for the various organizations and ways and means to bring about success, and it was decided that beginning with May 1 a series of conference meetings will be held in order to line up a formidable party organization. Among the women present at the Week Starting Sunday Nlgrht MODERN PIRATES GIVES FINAL PERFORMANCE TONIGHT race horses and fine REPUBLICANS PREPARING FOR POLITICAL CAMPAIGN HEADED FOR LAGOON TRACK The race track and racing quarters at Lagoon are taking on the appearance of a horse show. Already many carloads of some of the best thoroughbreds of the country have arrived and are quartered at the race track, and it is said that upwards of 400 fine bred horses will be here for the opening meet, Saturday, May 8. Racing Manager Billy Murray says that the people will see better racing than ever in the history of the local race game. All Over, winner of the Tijuana cup, a two mile event with $10,000 added money; Jack Fair-mawinner of the $5,000 Au Revoir handicap, and many horses of like calibre have already arrived and are now in training at the track. Horses, owners, trainers and jockeys are coming in every day. Leo Dandurand is the general manager of the Lagoon meeting and he is expected to arrive at any time now. This state has always been noted for its racing fans, but when racing was tabooed here by law, the farmers, businessmen and retired financiers quit breeding horses and as a result the state lost much valuable Not only that, but the horseflesh. farmers had to plow up their hay and grain fields that furnished food for the thousands of horses bred in this state at one time, and they were compelled to substitute new crops for hay and oats. If racing is permitted to continue in the state, it is quite certain that of stock will be revived, and there is big money in the breeding of such stock.
