SKETCH OF PLAY AT

- The opening scene in "Excuse Me"
is in Mrs. Elain Stetson Harding's
garden, where old acquaintances meet
and renew old times. Marcissa O'
Kee the movie actress, meets her four
admirers and one especially, Aloysiu
Ualrymple, who is minting tor spec
imens. Katie, the maid, and Pinkey
Bean, the man with the pills, are
.mportant features in the jplay.
In the midst of great excitement
Mrs. Harding is abducted and carried
by her brother-in-law to her hus
band's apartments in Fair View. All
who are guests at the Harding home
go to David Harding's appartments
with Bob Stetson, Elaine's brother,
jto search for Mrs. Harding.
The second scene is at . David Har
d ng's bachelor apartments at Fair
View. Her condition became so
serious that what was intended for
a joke became almost a reality, until
.'they found Mrs. Harding disguised
and in her husband's apartments. The
unw.nding ot the mystery is tnrniing
and extremely humorous, and "All's
'well that ends well."

(By Associated Press.)
The struggle in the Somme region
of northern France, renewed violent
ly with the heavy Anglo-French at
tacks of Thursday, which Berlin de
clares achieved bo results, has been
renewed by the Germans themselves.
Last n'ght they counter-attacked
strongly the French line south of the
Somme, reoccupytTIg part of Abval
incourt and neighboring trenches.
Paris asserts, however, that a French
attack which immediately" followed
cleared the Germans out of all posi
tions. There has also been further fight
ing north of the Somme, where the
Briiish have made slight gains.
A cessation of important operat'ons
on the British front in Macedonia al
so has been reported by London.
Steadily the pressure of the Aus-tro-German
forces is compelling the
Rumanian troops, who invaded Tran
sylvania less than eight weeks ago
to fall back upon or toward their
own frontier. In eastern Transyl
vania, north of Kronstadt, Berlin re
ports additional territory free of Ru
manians. Southeast of Kronstadt,
the Austro-Germans have also been
successful against the invaders. The
Rumanians, however, are offering
stubborn resistance. Bucharest re
ports the repulse by them of attacks
on the frontier of Southern Transyl
vania. Violent infantry fifhting continues
on the Carso front in the Austro
Italian theatre, with the Italians hav
ing the advantage, according to
Rome.
In the vicinity of Gorizia and to
the south of this region they have
repulsed heavy Austrian counter-attacks
inflicting heavy casualties and
east of Doberdo have approached the
second Austrian line, taking 400 pris
oners. 4 Vienna admits the loss of the town
of Novavas, but announces that the
Austrians put down Italian attacks
at other points on the Carso plateau
and made 2,700 men prisoner. In
the Pasubrio region of the Trentino
sector some additional gains in
ground are claimed by the Italians.
