At the turn time one feel that tha saejor premlaa would rain in plausibility the further the- whole affair were ire-moved Into the realm of mystery. Life la a tangled strand of many colored thread, and only ona whose experience had been extremely limited would want to assert the ImposelbUlty of such an incident aa that out of which this moving story grows. But it may reasonably be arfuea tnat ina greatest dramas are ti those which admit of leat argument on uch a point. i i It may be aald at however, that "Tha Great Divide" for the most part, an extremely Interesting pier, admirably conceived and moat skillfully put together. It Is staged, too, and acted with bo much sympathy and sincerity that Its ef fectlvenes Is heightened at every point.

Whatever the glamour and Illusion, however, one cannot overlook tha fact that la the violence of It Initial motive and In the employment of coincidence aa a means of bringing Its several Important characters together after' a long lapse of time there la a resort to means that are essentials of melodrama rather than a better form; Aa a whole; however, tha play Uses far shove that class.

At the outset Ruth Jordan. a young Massachusetts woman, alone in a ranch house in an Alisons, desert, is confronted by three drunken, roystering.

Stephen Ghent that Is the barbarian's name now propoees that they shall fight a tduel for the human prise, and. aa may be aurmlsed, ha returns shortly victor In the contest. There follows a splendid scene made vitally vallatie-ln Miss Anglln's expressive emotionalism and in Mr. Miller's effective repression, where the man places his pistol In Ruth's hands, allowing her the choice of killing him or h-self.

Vnable to face either the 'horror of 'murder ot that of suicide, the young woman now Implores htm to take her away once she has ax rend to the bargain, and will atand by It. But she warna him lhat-ll will mean misery for them both. In the dead of night then, without further word, the pair ride off to a justice of the Peace, i We find Ruth' eight months later In a state of physical and mental She loathes her huaband, yet seems held to him by that hate that Is akin to love.

WARE THE FURNACE MAN I The Thief In Dlagulae la Doing Well In New York Juat Now. with winter still long way off. the "man aent to fix the furnace" is al ready at work stealing Jewelry, money. any anything; else he can remove from homes without arousing suspicion.

The thief In the guise of the telephone the man who comes to read the gas meter," the water pipe' Inspector." the man who would Inspect- the roof, and In humbler home, the man who cornea to string new clotheslines hare all been plying their trade all Summer, but thla time of year la especially the fur nace fixer's harvest. I At noon on Wednesday a tall colored man, smooth faced, with curly black hair, wearing a neat suit of black speckled ma terial, a red four-in-hand tie, and a black derby' hat, rang fhe servants' bell at the home of Mrs. B. Felleman, 113 West Eighty-seventh He told the serv-ant who answered the summons that he waa the new furnace man, who had come to look over the furnace and the radia tors. He was allowed to examine the furnace.

i Alter an examination he asked for a hammer and a long knife. The servant could not find the hammer, but furnished the knife. Then he said he would Inspect the radiators." He went upstairs without supervision, and as he searched through bureau drawer and other articles of furnl ture where he might hope to find valua blea he tapped occasionally with his 'big knife on the radiators, to calm any suspi cion the servants downstairs might have. On the top floor he met the housemaid, who demanded to know what he wanted. He allayed her suspicions by tapping on a radiator, and then sent her hurrying; uownsiairs to nunt lor a hammer.

When the. negro had fathered stO in cash, a pearl pin. a set of oearl studs, and other articles, he walked downstairs, re turned we xnne. and went away. So many furnaces are overhauled at this time of the year, and so many new furnace men are being engaged that the pretext given by a thief of this type Is accepted by the servants.

The urnace-flxing thief usually works when he knows that the master and mlatreaa of the house are away. There ana many of them robbing houses all over the citv this Fall, Just as they: have robbed other houses In years past In the same way. To warn servants, the police say, is about tne- best precaution that can be taken. A general warning 10 mem would save many nunareas oi dollars in: cash and property iw cw m. uraera.
