The right and authority of the walk

subject and basis for a litigation insti-
tuted today in the Supreme Court of

The complainants admit that they

A Fireproof Wall

1t demonstrates one fact which l
have been endeavoring TO impress upon
the authorities. that the Stage in every
theater should be separated absolutely
from the auditorium by a fireproof pros
cenium wall Some theaters in this city
have 9reproof prosceniums which are
freprOof only a few feet above the open
ing. The space between that point and
the top of the house is combustible con-
struction which could be eaten up by
flames in minute. Every entrance
from the stage to the auditorium should
be fireproOf. and the asbestos curtains
should be so arranged that nothing on
earth should interfere with their falling
in time of emergency, such as was the
case in Chicago

Local Theater Fires.

Il remember very well the six theater
fires we have had in Washington. Four
of them were in the National Tseatcr.
one was the old Ford $ on Tenth Street
and the other was in the Oxfard. now
the Empire. The first fire IL the Ma
tional occurred in 1851. the second in the
early sixties. and the third in the sew
entities. The last and most disastrous
fire occurred in March. lSS5 in Cieve-
lands first Administration. The roof
collapsed within twenty minutes after
fire was discovered. and IL a perform
ance had been in progress the loss of
life would have exceeded this Chicago
catastrophe. The fortunate thing in
every one of these fires in local thea
tiers, is that they occurred while the
houses were empty. We have never
had a life lost by fire in a theater."
The Precautions Here.
Fire Marshal Bieber stated that he
visits one Of the theaters every night
and usually has the asbestos curtain
lowered and raised. in order to see II It
is in good working order. He sees that
all lights are lit at exits. and that ex-
its are not blocked. These lights must
remain lit. no matter how dark the
scene may be on the stage.
Fire protection on the stage is where
the utmost precaUtion is necessary. -
said the Fire Marshal. "A fireman -
detailed at each performance. the fire
hose has connections on both sides OF
the stage, and on each floor OF the fy
galleries. Besides this there are fire ex-
tinguishers. ceiling hooks. pickaxes
and other fre-fighting paraphernalia.
The use Of matches. smoking of Gig
aretfes. and cigars is carefully guard
ed against on the stage; in fact dress
ing rooms. and all portions of the stage
are patrolled constantly by fireman
To see that this rule is not violated"

THE FEAR OF HuMsue.
Prevents Many People From Trying
Good Medicine.

Stomach troubles are so common
and in most cases SO obstinate to cure
that people are apt to look with sus-
picion on any remedy claiming to be
radical, permanent cure for dyspep-
sia and Indigestion Many such pride
themselves on thor acuteness in new
err being humbueged. especially in
medicines.
This fear of being humbugged can
be carried too isr. so far, in fact that
many people suffer for years with
weak digestion rathel than risk lit
tie time and money in faithfully test
ing the claims made Of a preparation
so reliable and universally used as
Suarts Dyspepsia Tablets
Now stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are vastly different ia one important
respect from ordinary proprietary
medicines for the reason that they
are not a secret patent 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 or1an,
but they cure indigestion on the com
mon sense plan of digesting the food
eaten thoroughly before It has time
to ferment, sour and cause the mis-
chief This is the only secret of their
success.
Cathartic pills never have and never
can cure Indigestion and stomach
troubles because 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
ali there is to it, Food not digested
or half digested IS poison as it creates
gas, acidity, headaches, palpitation OF
the heart, loss Of flesh and appetite
and many other troubles which are
often called by some other name.
