"The Woman in the Case," a drama of intense power, by the late Clyde Pitch, will be the offering of the Price Players at the Academy this week. It is a story of modern New York life, and is based on the theme of a young wife's devotion to her husband when great trouble overwhelms him. He is charged with a murder of which he is wholly innocent, but a cobweb of intrigue holds him fast in a mesh of circumstantial evidence. A malicious woman is one of the chief conspirators against him. The wife disguises herself and gains her confidence, and there is a tremendous dramatic scene, in which the woman is made to confess the truth. Throughout it all runs a counterplot of comedy and youthful sentiment. Catherine Proctor and Viola Leach play the two women of diverse types and Richard Pix is the accused man. Beverly West, the new ingenue, appears for the first time. Living Pictures at Lyric. Topping the bill at the Lyric for the first half of this week are Maria Lo and her company of English girls, who will offer one of the most beautiful exhibitions ever seen in vaudeville, it is promised. The act is a recent importation. "Porcelain" is the title of the series of dainty exhibits. In living pictures are represented the exquisite china pieces that have made Preston famous. Cliff Bailey, novelty entertainer, goes it alone on the bill, and as a laugh-getter, according to advance reports, he.  Is "soing some."
