AGENTS WANTED A MYSTERY YARN "Twe Dead Men" Proves That Baffling Thriller Is Uni versal in Appeal The mystery story apparently Is uni versal In Its appeal. It Is iiet Impos sible that Cleopatra kept Marc outside her palace, while fche skipped a few Pages te find out just hew the beautiful Egyptian In the latest novel was te be proved guiltless of the theft of the fam ily jewels. Maybe se and maybe net, but "Twe Dead Men" of Jans Anker (Knopf) gives an idea of the Danish mystery story. It is n cleverly con structed yarn of conventional meid with suspicion pointing Us fictional finger here, there and everywhere only te light at last nt the most unexpected place but a place that the astute reader may have picked out for himself long be fore the "flnls" page. The locale, of course, is Denmark, and some striking pictures of the Danish underworld are drawn, but, ns has al ready been said, the mystery story Is universal, and therefore "Twe Dead Men" might have been placed in New Yerk, Chicago or Bosten, or almost any place, except Philadelphia or Corn Cern den. Certain It is that Lieutenant Bel shnw or the famous Ellis Parker would net have waited 800 pages te solve the murder. But then it takes an awful mysterious mystery te befog thcte tol tel vers of the unfathomable. And, by the way. the mystery fan should be ex pecting te sec some exploits of Parker en the stands seen. Ills achievement In real life surely have made many "yellow-back" mysteries seem pallid.

PEABODY'S PLAY ABOUT MARY WOLLSTONECRAFT There are a number of adjectives which could be used with advantage in describing Jesephine Preston Pea body's latest play, "Portraits of Mrs. W."" (Houghten Mifflin Company). Fragile lavender and old lace Vic torian meandering, are some et thcin. The author of "The Piper" announces in her preface that flie play Is "wil fully built against traditions of stage structure,"7 nnd it certainly Is. Just hew it would appeal, if acted, is rather hard te conjecture. The general Im pression te be gained would probably be much like that gained from reading it, an urfexcitcd sort of pleasure akin te that felt nfter passing a lay summer afternoon beneath gently waving trees, or a quiet half-hour ever teacups. Mrs. Pcabedy Is brave enough te In troduce many historical characters, and they act humanly, if net dramatically. Her heroine is the interesting Mary Wollstenccraft, and the author has succeeded In making her a very real and sympathetic" person. Net se much can be' said for the Kebert Heuthey and the Percy Shelley who appear In a num - ber of scenes.
