Mr Dlxons play is anything but con-

ventional it strikes out on now linesfront beginning to end the interest ofthe audtenve la sustained at the highestpitch and the climaxes are Intenselythrilling

One of the most Interesting featuresof this play is the large number of

characters portrayed It has beenclaimed that the play is a bitter attackon the negro race A careful observa-tion will point out that such Is not thecase The play shows live distinct typesof the negro One the captain t t theguard lo of course a negro brute andbeast SMlrs Lynch lieutenant gov-ernor of South Carolina Is an educatedmulatto a man of ability and one whoshould have done something toward the

of his own race but misledby the false protestations of Northernfanatics he falls late ruin and disgracesimply because he has deserted his owncolor Mock the old sheriff Is also fora time misguided but as soon as hecome in contact with the mysteriousKu Klux Klan he repents of his misdeeds and from that time Is a good reliable and respected negro Nelse andEve th old family servants true andfaithful to their old master are types ofthe best development of the coloredrace They are liked by everybody andtheir mate sense o humor makes theirappearance on the stage doubly delight-

ful It will thus be seen that no playhas ever before so completely shown on

stage the various phases of thenegro character
