elaborate productloa of "The Blga of the
Cross," a strong melodrama dealing with
the conditions that surrounded the Chris
tian la Rome under Kara, written by Wll
eoa Barf ell for his swa use. Mr. Barrett
made a play of unusual appeal, and pro
vided two central flguree that contrast
admirably,. Msrda, the Christian
maiden, and Marcua Superbus, ths young
Roman, favorite of the emperor and popu
lar with all. Theee roles will be played
by Mia Lang aad. Mr. Dexter, and they
will have the support at not only- ths
company, but of a greatly augmented
cast, for the play Is one that calls- for
many people. It also requires much scen
ery and most ambitions system of light
ing, all of which haa been provided by
Mr. Woodward. The first performance
will be at. the matinee oa Sunday, lend

times. "Madam X." If you saw Alexaa-
dor. BlsaoB'a powerful story of mother

scene which christened "Madam X-csse
Me." Its fua as nncesstng. Ia the mat

Biaton'a story la closely enough adhered
to that none of lta points are adhered
to that none of Its points are overlooked,
but It develop In auch a rkllcuolus man
ner that la laid to cauaa one to wonder
if the story was over treated other than
a travesty of burlesque. The pre
senting company Is beaded by the two
comics, Fttigeraid and Qulnn, lJxaie Fre-
Itgn, Bam Brown, Charles Jensen, Josle
KJne, Kdna Green and a big chorus, tns
entire company appearing under the cap
tion of The Bowery Burleaquers, Aalde
from "Madam X-cuae Me." the company

SAFEGUARDS FOR THE GIRLS
Byatematte Effort by Travelers and
Society te Remedy Seme ef
' ' .the lessee.
"Fifty thousand young women and girls
are lost In the United ettataa every year.
They almply drop out of existence," de
clared Theodore Bingham, formerly
commissioner of police In New York.
Aooordiag to the publication committee
of the Charlttee Org animation society of
Msw Tork. there Is ample proof of thla
en tile la Washington and In the records
of the' United etatea Immigration com
mlsatoa. A report of the Immigration league of 1
Chicago for 1M1 says mat in one year
1,M young women disappeared between j
New York and Chicago pt whom no trace j
could be found. Thoueanda of ambitious
young women come to the great cities
every year, hoping to belter their condi
tion ad wtn aa honorable livelihood.
Lacking experience and resources they
fall easy prey to unacrupuloue men whe
are always In search ef unprotected 1
women and girls. j
To remedy thla condition, rVports the '
New York Herald, an effort waa made :
alx yeara ago to guard the railroad ter- ;
mine la and atearaship ptera In New York, j
and to protect thoee passing through tha :
city. Sixteen railroads discharge no seen- 1
gere continually at seven terminate la
New York City and across the Hudson.
Eleven lines of transatlantic steamships ,
land thousands of passenger every year.
Ninety tinea of ateamshlpe plying between
New York end other ports land thousands ;
more. Many of them are young women 1
who require protection. Friende and rela
Uvea often find It Impossible to meet
them. In' auch case the escort of an
affable maa te a so-called respectable
hotel or boarding house le Innocently ac
cepted. To offset these dangers the Traveler'
AM aodety provides Information, advice,
guidance aad protect loo to those needing
assistance, lta agents, who apeak dif
ferent laagusges, conduct travelers at
any time, day or Bight, to their dtatlna
ttoa Ib the city or to train or ateamahtpa.
Thla assistance at continued by agents at
other points, until the traveler Is known
te have reached the proper destination.
The aodety co-operates with other erga-
maatlono between New York and Sen
Francisco, and also with aid societies la
foreign countries.
Frequently railroad ofTleiala co-operate
with the society. All Incoming steamship
passengers, except the steerage, which Is
eared for by the goeerneaent. are met at
the pear by agents of the society. Rooms
are taesrved at headquarter for
genet without charge. Young '
frequently com ta this country te be
7
married. Many auch cases are turned
over to the society by the government.
More than K.0M persona, representing
thirty-two nationalities, and apeaklng
thirty-nine languagea and dialect, have
been helped In the last alx yeara. In
the last tear the number haa averaged
more than 1,000 a month, th majority of
whom were women under a, traveling
alone.
