son a good opportunity and she made good use of it. The comedy part of Geraldine Deering was taken by a very young lady with the distinguished name of Consuelo Yznaga Bailey, who, with the very young man of the piece. Bert. taken by Bertram Y0st. diverted the at- tention from more serious doings. The bad man of the piece, Flush Davis, with an alias, played by Robert ThOrne, was not a very bad man, which was unfOr- tunate, as it made some situations hard to understand. Budge Matthews, the spokesman of the cowboys, was a good character and the part was well taken by S. S. Wiltsie. David Wells as John Martin, the speculating New Yorker, was exceptionally good.
 Mir. Woodruff, who is a college man himself and an athlete of distinction, invited the Yale football men to the Hyperion to see the play. About sev- enty accepted the invitation and en- joyed the play from the front rows of the orchestra, which they almost com pletely filled. The play will be repeated tonight.

THEORIES ABOUT FOOD.
Also Few Facts on the Same Subj

 Also Few Facts on the Same Subject.
 We hear much nowadays about health foods and hygienic living, about vege- tarianism and many other fads along the same line.
 Restaurants may be found in the larger cities where no meat, pastry or coffee is. served and the food crank is in his glory, and arguments and theories galore advanced to prove that meat was never intended for human stomachs, and almost make us believe that our sturdy ancestors, who lived four-scors years in robust health on roast beef, pork and mutton must have been gross- ly ignorant of the laws of health.
 Our forefathers had other things to do than formulate theories apout the food they ate. A warm welcome was extended to any kind, from bacon to acorns.
 A healthy appetite and common sense are excellent guides to follow iii matters of diet, and a mixed diet of grains, fruits and meats is undoubtedly the best.
 As compared with grains and vege- tables meat furnishes the most nutri- ment in highly concentrated form and Is digested and assimilated more quiolE- ly than vegetables or grains. ..
 Dr. Julius Remmson, on thIs subject, says: Nervous persons, people run down in health and of low vitality should eat meat and plenty of 1t. If tho digestion is too feeble at first it may be easily corrected bx the regular use of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. Two of these excellent tab- lets taken after dinner will digest sev- eral thousand grains of meat, eggs or other animal food In three hours, and no matter how weak the stomach may be, no trouble will be experienced if q regular practice Is made of using Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, because they supply the pepsin and disastase necessary to perfect digestion, and every form of indigestion will be over come by their use.
 That large class of people who come under the head of nervous dyspeptIcs should eat plenty of meat and insure its proper digestion by the daily use of a safe, harmless digestive medicine like stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, composed of the natural digestive principles pep sin, disastase, fruit acids and salts, which actually perform the work of di- gestion. Cheap cathartic medicines, masquerading under the name of dys- pepsia cures are useless for indigestion, as they have absolutely no effect upon the actual digestion of food.
 Dyspepsia in all it's many forms is simply a failure of the stomach to di- gest food, and. the sensible way to solve the riddle and cure the dyspepsia is to make daily use at meal time of a preparation like Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, which is endorsed by the med- ical profession and known to contain active digestive principles.

Ben of Broken Bow" play adver- tised as an original American comedy drama, came to the Hyperion last night IIwith Franklin Woodruff in the leading role. The play is by Mrs. Edith Baker, and in four acts tells the story of a young Nebraskan rancher, Ben Martin, who falls in Aove with his uncle's ward, 1 Evelyn Fenton, who is on a short visit to the west and follows her to New York to win philopena. He wins the philopena and the girl as we'll who had @ leaning in his direction at Broken Bow, Nebraska. On his discovery, how ever, that Evelyn Fenton's guardian has lost all her money in bad invest ments Ben puts his entire fortune of S50000 in the guardians hands for the 1 girl and goes back to a coW-punching job on his fathers ranch.
 | There is picturesqueness to the story which is developed along lines out of the ordinary run of things, and several strong situations, but as it stands the play will hardly go The first act is quite impossible. It lis slow in action and overloaded with dialogue, and there is very little connection between it, as it stands, and the other three acts of
 the play. The real story of the play
 begins in the second act. That act is a good one. The third is even better, ex- cepting an unfortunate anti-climax aft CT the row at the poker game. The fourth lacks the intensity of the second act, but will pass and take it's place as a part of a good whole if the knife is used on the first act forcefully and with
 discriminating intelligence. The play
 has many good qualities and ought tc succeed, but must undergo careful re-
 vision before it will justify itself.
 MT. Woodruff made a good-looking ] cowboy. He had quiet intensity that fitted the part well. His best acts were
 the second and third. Miss Brothers ! took the part of Evelyn Fenton and
