convalescing and could feel the con-
tent of returning strength and life.
"None know the feeling except those
who have been very i'll and recover.
"I began again, months after COM
plete recovery, to use coffee for break
fast and it seemed to agree with me
for while until I gradually became
conscious that the old stomach and
bowel troubles were coming on again
with the queer nervous feelings.
'I had been cured first by leaving off
Coffee and using Postum Food Coffee
and would have always used Postum
but for the fact that I got a spoiled
package one day and turned against
it.

would have given me good one in it's

An Unsuspecting New Havener Fleeced
in a Poker Game.
A man who gave the name of James
Moran was arrested yesterday after
noon by Policeman Dunlap on the
charge of swindling Joseph P. Mcclure
out of about $40. The arrest was made
on the complaint of Mcclure, who
keeps a saloon on Washington avenue.
According to McGuire's statement a
young man came to his saloon few
days ago and after talking some time
proposed that Mcclure go with him to
a certain hotel near the center of the
city where there was q man from whom
they could win some money at the Sc
ductive game of poker. The idea struck
Mcclure as a good one and he accom-
panied the young man to the hotel.
There they met the supposed easy vic
time, Moran, and a game Of poker was
soon In progress with Mcclure, the
young man who had induced him to
play and Moran the easy mark" hold
ing hands. The young man who had
piloted Mcclure to the hotel sat in the
game until he had lost $40, when he
dropped out leaving Mcclure and
Moran in the game. Mcclure had be-

ARMORY NOTES

The galleries of the armory were
packed last evening to see the drills
of the First division naval battalion.
The division has not been called out
yet, but expects to be as soon as the
navy department has boats ready for
the patrol work to which 1t is expected
the Connecticut battalion will be as
signed. The division last evening was
put through the infantry and artillery
drills. A few blank charges were fired
from the Hotchkiss guns to the con-
sternation as we'll as edification of the
galleries.
There will be no regular drills at the
armory this evening. The Light Guard
will drill some of their recent recruits,
but that is all. 1t is probable that the
Wyandotte will not go to Boston be-
fore next week.

THE CAKE WALK AT THE GRAND.
No entertainment has been given at
the Grand Opera house this season
that has given better satisfaction than
the one presented last night by the
Southern Speciality and Cake Walk
company to a fairly good audience. For
novelty, variety, and a combination of
general excellence in each of it's many
parts the performance was one long to
be remembered. From the rise of the
curtain displaying the animated song
sheet until the winners of the cake
walk were announced there was not a
dull moment. Plantation melodies,
solos, duets, quartette selections and
dances of all kinds were introduced
and all were heartily received. The
singing of the triple quartette at the
close of the olio was one of the feat
ures, while the singing of THE Belle of
Avenue A." just suited the tastes of
the gallery gods. Such popular melo-
dies as Hush My Little Coon" "All
Coons Look Alike To Me- and 'Who
Said I Hollered?" were all received
with great enthusiasm, and encores
were in frequent demand. There was
also buck and wing dancing that sur
passed anything ever seen in this city
There were jokes and sketch acts and
at last a cake walk with the audience

THE ELIZABETHAN PLAY.
A Beaumont & Fletcher Comedy a

A Beaumont & Fletcher Comedy at
Warner Hall Tonight.
Beaumont & Fletcher's comedy of
''The Knight of the Burning Pestle"
was presented at Warner hall last eve
ming by members of the English de-
partment of the university. The audi
ence was especially select and fashion
able, admittance being by invitation
only. The programme and invitation
read as follows: 1.-THE English depart
ment of Yale university invites you to
be present at a performance of Eeau-
mont & Fletcher's comedy, "The Knight
of the Burning Pestle," to be given at
Warner Hall, New Haven, Friday eve
ming, April 20, at eight o'clock" The
piece was acted, to quote from the bill
of the play, ''by the Honorable Elihu
and his Servants"
The production was noteworthy as
being the first presentation of the
comedy in this country. 1t Is of par
ticular interest coming just at this
time when the English department is
being subjected to so much criticism.
AS far as possible the atmosphere Of
the Elizabethan stage was preserved.
There was no change of scenery. The
scenes were indicated by placards. The
costumes which were both correct and
picturesque were designed and carried
out by the actors themselves. The entire
expense was met by a subscription
among the members of the department.
There had been no professional coach
ing, the piece having been prepared
under the direct supervision of the in
structors of the department
"The Knight of the Burning Pestle''
was written by Beaumont & Fletcher
about 1911. 1t was prompted directly
by the adverse criticism with which
the Philistine London public had receiv-
ed the formers Faithful Shepherdess, .
and intended as a burlesque on the
tastes of London citizens for the VIC
toriouS melodrama and love of fighting.
The characters of the citizen and his
wife satirize the London play oer ard
in this comedy they direct matters to
qualities the play possesses many and
great poetic beauties. The lyrics are
especially charming throughout, show
ing the influence of Ben Jonson.
The ladies of the cast, the Misses
Myers, Woodbridge, Wright and Love-
well, were all excellent. Miss Myers
and Miss Wright exhibited especial
ability. OF the male members of the
cast, the Messrs Richards, PadeIford,
Root and Osgood were the most con-
Vincing

The Grand opera house has certain
ly secured a very good attraction in
the New Haven Athletic and Vaude-
vile company, which appears for six
nights and usual matinees, commence
ing Thursday, May 5, and the house
will undoubtedly do one Of the biggest
weeks business of the season. There
will be two different shows in one vau-
deville and boxing. The vaudeville
company is headed by that very funny
comedian Chuch Corners. Chuch ap-
peared at Hammerstein's roof garden
for eight weeks last season and created
a big sensation in his great rag time
dance. He will appear at every per-
Torrance and Is worth the price of adj
mission alone. The rest of the bill is
Waldron and Waldron, descriptive
singers; Sisters Walker, singing and
dancing soubrettes; Hilton, q very
clever juggler; Burke and Scott, Irish
comedians; Allie Gilbert, baritone sing
er, and Charlie Robinson, Irish come
dian, who was here earlier in the sea-
son with 'The Great Train Robbery"
George Sfddons and Charley Kelly will
meet all corners and the management
will give $50 to any one that they can
not beat in four rounds. There will be
also about six amateur bouts every
night. Boxing in barrels, wrestling
and battle royal between five colored

ence Roberts, White Whittlesey, Charles
Willard, Searle Dawley, Miss Lillian
Armsby and Mr.. and Mrs. Selby Tops
field. The entire production is admir-
able and wen deserving of large au-
diences. After the close Of each act
last evening there were repeated en-
cores, and Mr.. Morrison was finally
compelled to make a short speech in
which he thanked the audience in be-
half of the company and himself for
their appreciation of the piece and said
that he would appear tonight in his
great success Faust"
There will be bargain matinee to-
day when the prices will be only Csc
and SOC. ''The Master of Ceremonies"
will be repeated and should be wit
messed by a large audience.
Lewis Morrison in Faust is an
nounced as the attraction at the Hy-
perion tonight. Mr.. Morrison in the
character of Mephisto has been shin
ing light on the American stage for
years. He has secured a hold on the
affections of theater- goers Of the pres
ent day that gives promise of being re-
membered Tor generations TO come.
Faust" as a play will live forever, it's
heart interest, it's beautiful scenes, and
it's idyllic force combine to keep it
popular. Mr.. Morrison's production of
the familiar play is superb. The eff
feet in many scenes is made impressive
by the excellent service of a quartette.
In the mounting this season the pro-
duction is superior in every way to
Mr.. Morrison's of the past. Miss Flor
ence Roberts is as usual his leading
support, as Marguerite she is unsur-
passable. The supporting company is
the best. Among the members may be
mentioned White Whittlesy, Borton
Hill, Gordon Foster and Miss Mabel
Morrison.

piece has been seen here once before

Morrison's ability has been demon

in Faust" for many years, but he is
seen in a much different role in his
new piece. The appearance of Mr..

how the "breaking'' began to go the
other way and it was not long before
Mcclure had lost his roll. He then
left the hotel, and a short time after
it gradually began to dawn upon him
that he had been victimized. After he
had fully convinced himself of this
fact he reported the matter to the po-

police were last evening looking for the
kind young man who had called to the
