Gossip of the Dramas Gay World

From Our New York Dramatic Corre-
 spondent.]
 Jefferson de Angelis has come to the Lyric theater with "Fantana," comic opera that pleased Chicago nightly and that promises to remain in New York for some time to come.
 The play is very humorous in parts, De Angelis is provided with q roilick- ing role, and the costumes and scenery are sumptuous.
 "Fantana" has no more consistency as regards plot and development than the average comic opera, but its inter- mittent gayety, continual color and tunefulness redeem it.
 "Fantana" is bright and breezy" from beginning to end. Kate Barry strikingly demonstrates her ability as genuine fun maker, and the other members of the cast are pleasing as q rule.

CRUISER MARYLAND
May Be Swiftest of Uncle Sam's Warships.
l IS THE ACME OF POWER.AND SPEED
May Lead Sister ship Pennsylvania, Which Holds Record For Her Class-A Floating Citadel
 of Great Guns.

| BOSTON. Jan. 2S. -- With keen northwest wintry wind striking her abeanl, the new armored cruiser Mary land. built for the United States gov ernment by the Newport News; Ship building and Dry Dock company. at tained on her official trial trip an aver | age speed of 223O6 knots an hour. thereby exceeding her contract re- Iuirement of 22 knots. The Maryland | is the fourth and last of type | of fast cruisers to have q trial off Cape Ann. Of the three which have pre- ceded. the Pennsylvania. the fastest of these. averaged a speed of 22.43 knots an hour. It cannot be said, however. | at this time that the Pennsylvania is queen of the class, for it was unoffi- cially announced by the trial board that the tidal corrections for the trial of the Maryland are in the. ships fa- vor by from 11.100 to 1S.10O of knot. If this tidal correction is over 124 of knot the Maryland will be recorded as the speediest cruiser of the class.
 The Pennsylvania and the Colorado which made 2224 knots. were built by the Cramp Shipbuilding company of Philadelphia. The West Virginia. the third sister ship of the Maryland. was built by the Newport News company. This ship averaged speed of 22.14 on her official run.
 The trial of the Maryland was at tended by circumstances of unusual in. terest from the fact that the builders of the Maryland endeavored to prove her the speediest of the four cruisers of this type.
 As the Maryland cut her way through the seas the water was sprayed in great masses over her how aud. falling on the deck and rigging. froze almost immediately
 The Maryland was found to have quick working steering gear. she es- tablishing record for the throwing of the helm hard over. when the hig ship described a figure ''S'' al the conclusion of the official run.
 Her main battery consists of four eight-inch bach loading rifles. four teen fOur-ins. rapid fire guns and d secondary battery of eighteen three inch and twelve thrce-pounder guns and eighteen automatic guns.

A GREAT INSTITUTION.

1t is unusual that single institution in a
city of 5000 people will overshadow in i'm
portance every other interest, but such is
the case with the American School Of
Osteopathy, and A. L. Still Infrmary at
Kirksville, Mo.
A stranger in Kirksville is Immediately
impressed with the idea that the town is
sustained by this institution, in fact,
Kirksville has been made what it is to-day
by DIR. Still and his famous School and
Infirmary. 1t is the largest patronized I'M
endowed institution of its kind in the
United States.
DIR. Stills school enrolls over 700 students
yearly and each student is required to at
tend four terms of five months each before
completing the course of study. There are
over 1000 graduates and they are prac-
ticng in every state and territory of the
Union About two-thirds of the states
have passed special laws legalizing the
science.
This school teaches every branch taught
in medical colleges except drugs" and
osteopathy is substituted for that. So
thorough is the teaching in anatomy that
over one hundred human bodies are dis
sected yearly by the students.
At the lnfrmary, patients from every
part OF the country and with almost every
form of disease are constantly under treat
ment. For the past fifteen years almost
every train coming to kirksville has
brought some new sufferer hoping to find re-
lief by the science of Osteopathy. BY the
thousands who have left the institution
benefited by the treatment, the science has
been heralded to the world as a safe and
rational method of cure. Several years ago
q free clinic was established in connection
with the practice department Of the school
and this is still in operation. Hundreds Of
the worthy poor, who are unable to pay for
treatment, are treated every afternoon by
the senior students free of charge.
If your friends believe you to be
poor, they will conspire to keep you
poor. II they think you rich, they will
all try to make you richer.

Every housekeeper should know
that If they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in A-pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch Is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you
a 1907. package it is because he has
a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose OF before he puts IN Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let.

Custer County Republican. (Broken Bow, Neb.) 1882-1921, 1905-01-19

To the housewife who has not yet
become acquainted with the new things
of everyday use in the market and
who is reasonably satisfied with the
old. we would suggest that a trial OF
Defiance Cold Water Starch be made
at once. Not alone because it is guar
snteed by the manufacturers to be SUI
perior to any other brand, but because
each 100 package contains 16 ozs..
while all the other kinds contain but
IL ozs. 1t is safe to say that the lady
who once uses Defiance Starch will use
no other. Quality and quantity must
