Hyperion Theater.

William H. Crane appeared in a new
play 1.-THE Head of the Family" before
a large and fashionable audience at the
Hyperion last night. The play is the re-
suit of the translation with more or less
freedom from the German of l. Arrouge,
by Messrs. Clyde Fitch and George
Dtrichstein. Clever in every sense of
the word and teaching homely sort of
moral, the play is one of the best in
which Crane has won the place he oc-
cupies with the American theater-g oers.
His support is thoroughly capable. Wal
ter Hale as society man does some ex-
cellent work in the scene when he in
forms, while inebriated, Boyd Putnam
Of the infidelity of the latter's wife. Boyd
Putnam and Frederick Truesdell as the
trusting husband and the rogue respect
lively capably cared for their parts. The
work of the feminine part of the cast
was on par with that of the men. Miss
Percy Haskell appeared to advantage in
the rather difficult part of a woman
who marries one man to revenge herself
on another who had rejected her prof
fered love. Miss Gladys Wallis did some
clever work as the young miss with
penchant for novels and matinee heroes,
who is at last brought by parental con-
troll to learn the practical things of life.
The minor parts are we'll cared for,
everybody successfully working for a
smooth production of a clever play. Mr..
Crane made as usual O speech in re-
Spouse to numerous de? ands therefor.
He expressed his thanks, and advocated
the bringing of some of the feminine
members of the company before the cur
tain to reply to future curtain calls.
''Beside the Bonnie Brier Bush" the
dramatization of Ian McLaren's book
and commended by him, will be pre-
scented at the Hyperion tonight and
tomorrow night.
The Chicago Chronicle has this to say
of the p reduction: Bessie the Bonnie
Brier Bush will please those who have
read Ian MacLaren's stories, for the
adapters have treated their original
with sympathetic care and tenderness,
and several of the more notable figures
are life-l.ke copies of the people with !
whom we have become acquainted be-
tween the covers. This is best at once
to state as Ian MacLaren's admirers
are his readers and they are not few. !

Gently staged. The management has
spent money lavishly upon this produc-
ton, and, judging from the great ap-

Boss Broker, the Tam many
chief of Greater New York, en-
dorses expansion in the follow
ing language:
81 believe in expansion. I be-
lieye in holding whatever pos.
sessions we have gained by an.
nexstion, purchase or war. This
policy is not only patriotic. but it
is the only safe one to pursue.
Any other policy would show
weakness on the part of the
United States and invite foreign
complications. This must be
avoided, hence our policy must
be vigorous.
Jefferson was an expansion
list. otherwise he would not have
favored the acquisition of Louisi-
ana, with its foreign population.
which in Jefferson's time was
quite as remote as the Philip
pines. In this age of steam and
electricity distance is no argu-
ment against expansion. I'VE
spend millions annually for mis-
sionary work in foreign coun-
tries. Now we have a chance to
spend this money in our own
possessions and make the people
in our lands good. law-abiding
citizens. who, in time, will be
loyal to our constitution and our
flag.
Take England, for example.
The people of this little island
came pretty near owing the uni
verse. Are not our own people
as intelligent, as powerful, as pa
triotic as the English people?
The United States is the only
country on earth superior to the
English. Why not illustrate to
the world that we are fully able
to cope with greater problems
than we have had occasion to in
the past and in the future domin-
ate any emergency?
,'sWe have a population of eigh-
" millions of people; the country
teens with young men full! of
life, hope and ambition. Why
not give these men a chance to
develop our newly acquired pos
sessions and build up,a country
rivaling in grandeur and patriot
ism our own United States? I
say by all means hold on to all
that rightfully belongs to us. If
the great country west of the
Rocky mountains was filed with
wild Indians at the present
moment how long would it take
US to. suppress them and make
them respect our laws and con-
stitution? The same thing ap-
plies to the Philippines and any
other country that may fall into
our. hands by the providence of
peace or war. It is an insult to
the
American people and to our flag,
even to suggest that we abandon
the people that we have rescued
from bondage, or, what would be
more disgraceful that we should
offer to sell them to the highest.
bidder. Such q proposition.

THE EATING OF CANDY.
How the Qualification of a Child's
Sweet Tooth Should be Regulated.

To the average child there are two
delights so great that the sophisti-
Gated man or woman Of the world can
hardly comprehend the bliss they
cause. One is to eat ice cream; the
other to eat candy. One woman con-
fesses that when she was a small girl,
and was told that heaven was place
OF absolute bliss, she instantly de-
cided in her own mind that in that
place there would be gallon freezers Of
Ice cream always standing open, and
that the trees would bear on their
branches and drop upon the ground
below thousands of candies.
1t pity that an article whose wise
use gives so much pleasure and works
so little harm as does good candy
should have been abused until it has
become an evil. Some parents feel
that to keep their children in health
they must forbid them to eat candy at
any time, while other parents permit
it to be devoured in such quantities
that their ignorance can be their only
| excuse for the sin of allowing such in
diligence. Dentists and physicians
unite in the opinion that pure candy,
eaten in proper quantities and at
proper times, can do we'll child no
harm. Good candy may be now pro-
cured from many dealers, the purity
of whose bonbons has justly won for
them regulations. Let the mother buy
these candies and portion them out to
| her little ones, a few at a time, and
| always right after a substantial meal.
| One mother calls her boys and girls
to her room every day after their
simple but hearty MONDAY dinner aLA
gives to each few simple candies,
such cream peppermints, chocolate
creams, and maple creams. Nut bon
bons are never allowed. The children
are satisfied with this method Of TAX
ing their goodies, and teeth and di-
gestion are not impaired by the prac-
tice. Of course, if a child is not well
the candy is not allowed, for this mo-
Their believes more in met than in
drugs.
One morning, in the heat Of last
summer, l was riding in a street car,
when father entered, carrying in his
arms pale, wasted girl of 8 years OF
age. The mother followed. Had the
child's eyes been closed she would
have looked as if she were already
dead instead of dying of marasmus.
In one birdlike claw of a hand she
clutched bright pink cocoanut cake.
When the father sat down she drop
ped her heavy head TO his shoulder
and lifted the pink atrocity TO her
| bloodless lips, where it slowly but
steadily disappeared. The tired
mother sighed anxiously.
"She amt ate bit for breakfast
this day." she complained to her hus-
band.
ooh, well,' was the hopeful reply,
She'll be all right when it gets cooler
weather"
"By which time she will be in an
other world" said I to my indignant
self, 'and she is hurried there by
those who would sacrifice all to save
her life. '-Harper's Bazaar

TATTOOED ROYALTY.

According to r. j. Stephen, in an
interesting article in Harmsworth's
Magazine, tattooing is just now the
popular pastime of the leisure world.
Prince and Princess Waldemar Of Den
mark. Queen Olga of Greece, King
Oscar Of Sweden, the Duke of York,
the Grand Duke Constantine, Lady
Randolph Churchill, with many others
of royal and distinguished rank, have
submitted themselves to the tickling,
but painless and albeit pleasant, SEN
sation afforded by the improved ia
tooing needle, which is nowadays
worked on a simple plan, aided by
the galvanic current, the genius of the
artist supplying the rest of the opera
ton. 1t appears that there is a hui
morous aspect even to so serious a
subject as tatooing, for Mr.. Stephen
tells of a well-known British army
officer who had tattooed over his
heart the simple name of MARY"
with lovers knot, but six months
afterward, had the uncanny word
"traiteress" tattooed underneath. An
English actress had butterfly tat
tooed on her fair shoulder, the In
itials of her fiance, 'F. w." being
placed underneath. Not long after
ward she also came back and had the
GU converted into &C." and the "V'
into "W," the letters reading e."
w." She eventually married "E. w."
and to this day "E. W." thinks his
initials were the first tattooed on her
arm.

A TINY RECONCENTRADO.

There is no use trying to keep in
confinement curious little creature
known as the metal-cutting beetle.
Stone walls do not his dungeon make
nor iron bars cage; for iron will
not hold this energetic insect. AS
soon as it tires Of its prison it cuts it's
way out. Not long ago an entomolo-
gist, Mr. Deupy, caught one Of these
beetles and, unaware of its peculiar
ability for saving through anything in
its way, put it in a cardboard box.
Soon firing Of solitary confinement,
or probably thinking it's captor had
forgotten to provide it with door, the
beetle cut one for itself and crawled
out. 1t was captured and put in a
box, and as soon as the novelty Of its
new home wore off, again the perse-
vering insect cut a hole in the box and
escaped. The next time the escaped
prisoner was caught it was put in a
small glass jar with tight fitting
pewter cover, punctured to let in the
air. But the metal cutting beetle from
Mexico scorned to live in a pepper
box and gnawed hole big enough 30
allow it to creep out into the big world
again. And this time it was not
caught.
