...scene is laid in a deserted church to which come a spiritualist, an international crook, two quarreling lovers and their mutual girl, and of course the man from Scotland Yard. For three acts lights go on and off, spotlights play, and one person after another falls into someone's arms or else is suddenly dragged offstage by a mysterious form. In the end somebody has to be found to be the villain or the play would have absolutely no raison d'etre, and the resourceful authors manage to pin someone down just in time to send the audience home contented...

...definitely and concretely trained in his own work as the student of chemical research is in his, and, what is more important, must be nearly as well equipped financially.
