Two 15-year old actresses, a high diving scene and a tank of real water, stimulate interest in "Two Little Sailor Boys," the London melodrama which will be presented at the Lyric Theatre this afternoon and evening. The two young women referred to are Miss Sadie Handy and Miss May Abbey. Dressed In sailor caps, blous-es and tight-fitting trousers, they enact the brave little middies and have a troublous way to nrnke ou account of the machinations of a wicked step-mother and adventuress of the deepest dye. In the second act, tlie adventuress, whose name is 'Lola Grey, throws one of the boys, who is her unacknowledged son, from the bridge into a river. The other lad gallantly leaps in and at the risk of his own life saves his little The third act has a fight between the woman and a professional thief wha has gotten possession of papers exposing her past.

She murders him and ecapes by means of a boat while detectives hammer on the door and at last enter just in time to receive the burglar's dying deposition. In the final act the woman is exposed by the return of her husband, Captain Tom Yorke, from South Africa. Her schemes to prosecute the little sailor boys and wreck the happiness of tSe lovers, Mildred Grey and Capt. Tre-garthen, are foiled completely and all ends happily. Benjamin Baxter, a Cockney detective; Jack Jolly, able seaman, and Lucy, a coquettish servant, help to keep the ball rolling by their love affairs and Jackanapes in the Intervals of the serious plot.

May Irwin. Miss May Irwin, who will be seen here in "Mrs. Black is Back," at the Lyric Theatre, Friday evening, will show an automobile costume that will make the etate government call in all the old licenses and issue new ones, for surely such an outfit must be taken Into consideration in the granting of permission to use motor.
