Sunday performance.
Just now everything is at a standstill
Managers declare that these entertain
ments are given in orderly fashion in the
best governed cities in the country. They
say that in Chicago, Milwaukee, and even
in New York, amusement caterers offer
Sunday bills without being molested, and
that in Germany and France the first
day of the week is the most favored at the
theatres. No great evil has as yet come
TO either nation, and the inhabitants do
not seem to fear any. Local directors ar
que that the questionable resorts of Wash
ington thrive most on the Sabbath, and
that this would not be SO were their houses
open. incidentally they remark that pso-
pie here want to be amused at one time
as much as at another. and that by offer
ing good, moral performances managers
philanthropically keep their fellow men out
of mischief. Finally and frankly thsy
state that sacred concerts are extremely
profitable and that they propose to con-
tinue them whether the Reform League is
willing or not.
Meanwhile. the different moral societies
of Washington are fretting and stewing
lest some great evil be wrought upon the
city because of the wickedness of its the
atrical folk. They berate the negligent
this emergency, and threaten to pass all
sorts of bills when Congress convenes
again. Since the House and Senate will
in all probability 'be dark until next
December, and since the regular season
closes in April Inis menace does not seem
to Worry the aforesaid managers greatly.
The Reform League may make an appeal
TO the Commissioners. however and there
is some chance that these gentlemen may
fhaaf cIn h.
In case this occurs the directors threaten
to take dog init -manger proceedings
that will assure Washington a Sunday
night that would make the average Phila-
delphia miniss ser blush at his own wick
edness
While the trouble goes on the greater
portion OF the city's denizens remain neu-
trai None OF them seem 10 believe that
local amusement caterers are giving per-
formances solely TO save the souls of their
patrons and some do not put much more
faith in the members of the Reform League.
1t has been broadly limited that the reli-
gtous fear the theatre as a rival to the
church. and that the present tempest has
not yet overreached the confines of tea
pot. Some cynics even claim that the dis
cussion will be of most benefit as free
advertising for the entertainments. They
point out that other towns have had Sun
day performances for years without pro-
yoking anything more formidable than
complaints from overworked actors-which
do not concern the public greatly-and re-
mark that Washington morals are no more
susceptible TO evil influences than are
those of Milwaukee. All three sides are
practically tied hand and foot so that there
is no immediate prospect OF any new phase
TO the matter. Next Sunday will probably
bring with it the usual number of sacred
concerts"

immediate vicinity OF Ninth. Street and
Maryland Avenue, whererthei cars which
carried the soldiers were located during
the stopover here. Many of the soldiers
not satisfied with general mischief making
resorted to acts Of vandalism and petty
thefts. In several instances private resi-
dences were entered and small articles
stolen. The residents could do nothing
with the intruders and at the time of the

complaints were made to the police of the

THEY RIDICULE 1T.
Many People RidicuIe the Idea of an
Absolute Cure for Dyspepsia
and Stomach Troubles
Ridtcule, However, Is Not Argument,
and Facts Are Stubborn Things

Ridicule, However, Is Not Argument.
and Facts Are stubborn Things.
Stomach troubles are so common and in
most cases so obstinate to cure that people
are apt to look with suspicion on any rem
edy claiming to be radical, permanent
cure for dyspepsia and indigestion Many
such pride themselves on their acuteness
in never being humbugged especially in
medicines.
This fear of being humbugged can be
carried too far. so far, in fact that many
people suffer for years with weak diges-
tion rather than risk a little time aud
money in faithfully testing the claims
made of a preparation so reliable and uni
versally used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab
lets.
Now, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are
vastly different in one important respect
from ordinary proprietary medicines. for
the reason that they are not a secret pat
ent medicine, no secret is made of their
ingredients but analysis shows them to
contain the natural digestive ferments,
pure aseptic pepsin, the digestive acids,
Golden Seal, bismuth, hydrastis. and nux.
They are not cathartic, neither do they
act powerfully on any organ, but they cure
indigestion on the common sense plan of
digesting the food eaten thoroughly before
ii has time to ferment, sour and cause the
mischief. This is the only secret of their
success.
Cathartic pills never have and never can
cure indigestion and stomach troubles be-
cause they act entirely on the bowels
whereas the whole trouble is really in the
stomach
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken after
meals digest the food That is all there is
to IT. Food not digested or half digested
is poison, as it creates gas, acidity head
aches. palpitation of the heart, loss of
flesh and appetite and many other troubles
which are often called by some other
name.
They are sold by druggists everywhere
at so cents per package. Address F. A.
