CLARA MORRIS CANCELS.
Famous Actress Will Not Appear in
Topeka.

Arthur S. Kane received a telegram
today announcing that Clara Morris has
cancelled all her lecture dates and has
abandoned the tour. She was to have
appeared at the Topeka Auditorium on
February IL.
The cause of the trouble is given in
the following dispatch from Des Moines:
Clara Morris and her husband, Frank
c. Harriott were stranded in Des Moines
from Monday night until O'Clock this
morning, owing to the unexpected and
unexplained departure of their mana
ger, George Broadhurst, and with him,
it is said, went the proceeds of Monday
nights lecture.
They were booked for Omaha. last
night and endeavored frantically all day
yesterday to procure money with which
to pay their hotel bill and railroad
transportation, but in vain
Mr.. Harriott suggested to an attorney
that they should pawn Miss Morris
jewelry, but the attorney gave them no
encouragement and the plan was appar-
emily abandoned

pointment. Those who expected to see
something naughty were disappointed.
The famous stocking" scene was sup
posed to suit the bald headed contin-
gent in the front rows and shock the
feminine portion of the audience. 1t
didn't. 1t was very tame affair. Ma
RE Doro simply sat on the floor, clad
in a long skirt which she never got
more than six inches above her in
step, and took off several pairs of hose.
1t was not half SO shocking as the dis
plays that are often seen in dry goods
store windows
The play is said to be by David Belas-
co He who wrote 1.-The Heart of
Maryland" and 'Zaza" and who looks
after Mrs. Leslie Carter. Certain it is
that the play, if it may be so called, Is
not up to his standard. 1t borders
closely on the horse play, slap stick
brand and is full of jokes and Incl
dents as old as the scenery in the opera
house.
The players were bad. Especially the
men. Miss Doro, who is advertised as
Anna Held's only rival, is quite pleas
ing, but she can not sing nor dance.
She didn't try to. Other m embers of
the company tried to dance and sing
but they failed utterly to please. The
cast was poor and the play miserable.

All THE PLAY LAST NIGHT.

the Crawford last night when a won an

Naughty Anthony under the nam e
of Patti Rosa" BY the shades of the
departed! 1t was awful
Patti Rosa, the real and original,
who has been dead these half dozen
years or more, was a favorite in To-
peka- She was the exponent of all that
was petite, vivacious, and yet lady
like. She was an honorary member
of the Topeka lodge of Elks. On the
hangs nearly life size photograph of
her. 1t bears her autograph Several
years after her death touching
scene happened. The Elks were enter
tanning the members of a theatrical
company. Patti Rosa's husband was
manager of the troup. He was in the
club rooms. He noticed the picture of
his dead wife, walked closer to it and
tears came to his eyes. Every Elk in
around as if to speak Something
came up in his throat. He could not ut
ter a word 1t was then that the ElkS
drank their eleven o'clock toast in ST.
lence to their departed friends and
Joined in singing Should Old Acquain-
tance Be Forgot" 1t was an incident
never to be forgotten and proved the
popularity of the dead woman. And
that such memories should be Jared by
another under the name of Patti Rosa
To be sure il is understood that she
bears the name of her mother but it
seems sacrilegious. She could not sing
nor dance with any degree of pleasing
ness

Postum Coffee exclusively as a bever-
age at meals. I said, thought you
were so fond of coffee that you could
not be induced to give it up Well,
my friend said, We got to liking Pos
tum Coffee for it serves as a food as
well as a beverage, and we have all felt
so much better since leaving off the old
coffee
I learned to make the Postum and
made it fine, so when I went home I
began to serve it to my husband instead
of the old fashioned coffee About a
week afterwards L asked him how he
liked the coffee, and told him 1 had been
trying a new kind. He says, I think 1t
is most excellent. Is it Mocha or Java
or a nixture?' I told him that it was
the famous Postum we had read so
much about and he most jumped from
his chair in surprise, but the change
has become a fixture and he will never
give up Postum and go back to the old
Fashioned coffee, for we not only like
it better but we feel SO much bet
ter in every way This lady's
