WAY DOWN EAST.

Farm and Bannyard Favorite Here for
 a Three Night Run at the Hyperion.
 That old-time favorite of genera tion of theatergoers, Way Down East" last night successfully inaugur- ated an engagement of three nights and matinee at the Hyperion.
 "'Way Down East" as everybody knows is the old reliable play of coun- try life-the only original all ether im- itations, and none genuine unless bear ing the signature of Phebe Davis-and out of all the other rural plays that have bobbed up and bobbed out during the last few years, it is the only one to hold it's place. There have been limitations enough, some of which have succeeded, no doubt But none of them stuck, while Way Down East" likethe babbling broog that Tennyson tells about, runs on forever" It's a classic in its way. you know, and any body that mixes it up with the ordin- ary run of hay-wagon plays hasn't got any right to eat caulif1ower s1 long as there's cabbage in the market.
 The company that is now presenting it at the Hyperion is the classical com pany, too, headed by Phoebe Davis, and including many of the members of the original cast.
 Miss Davis still plays the part of Anna Moore with as much freshness and spontaneity as she ever did, In the many pathetic situations involved in her part she is especially strong. Robert A. Ffscher's acting in the role Of Squire Amasa Bartlett is unin- peachable, while Mary Davenport as Louisa Bartlett, Squire Bartlett's wife, and Ulric B. Collins as David Bartlett, his son, support their parts with en- tire competence.
 Warren Cooke as Professor Sterling, John B. Brennan as Hi Holler, the chore boy-who hasn't heard of Hi Ella as Martha Perkins. the village gossip, and the quartette that make up the village choir, furnish an abun- dance of wholesome fun and amuse- ment. Rube Whfpple, the village con- stable, who sings the famous song, "All Beound Reound With Wollen String" is played by Frank Bell, who gets all the hunlor out of the part that there is in it. The villain of the piece, Lem nox Sandersen-he's got to be a city man, of course-is played by Burt FlanSburg, who did we'll with his part.
 Way Down East" is staged with great fidelity b5 nature, the settin' room and kitchen sets being especially ef- fective. The snow storm scene in Act III is the most life-like reproduction that has yet been attempted on the sage. Phoebe Davis in "'Way Down East" will appear at the Hyperion in three more performances, tomorrow evening and Saturday afternoon and evening.

THE BLACKFEET INDIANS.

Lecture To-Night by Walter McClin-
 tock, Yale '91.
 Tonight at oclock in College street hall Walter McClintock, of Pittsburg gives the fifth lecture in the Sheffield Lecture course on "The Life and Leg ends of the Blackfeet Indians"
 MT. McClintock, who graduated from Yale in the class of 1891, some years after graduation spent several summers in the Indian reservation. In 1896 he was connected with the government ex- pedition sent into the northwest, and after completing this work he remained for a long period among the Blackfeet Indians, being finally adopted into the tribe and thereby becoming very ia miliar with their methods of life, their ceremonies and their customs. The lecture is said to be full of realistic views of this people, and will undoubt- edly draw a large audience.

Turn Your Face
 Into Dollars.
Many Man Has Failed Because His
 Face Was Picture of Calamity.

It takes sunshine to produce a nose, a perfect rose. And so man, to be sue cessful, must have sunshine inside. The life which has it not. which has no health and no happiness, is sour, surly, pessimistic, and d failure. The world already has too many vinegar faces that breathe ill-will and strife, The world wants joy, comfort, sun- shine, and will cling to the man whlo has it, who radiates gladness and tri- umph wherever he is and under all cir cumstanceS.
 Some people have genius for seek ing out the disagreeable, the crooked, the bad and the ugly. These are the destroyers, they travel an schools, they herd together, for they love their kind and the cheerful part of the world will have nothing to do with them.
 And why is it that so many peldle disaster, knowing at the same time that if they do, their lives will be ruin ed? Some people cannot help it, for pessirnism usually comes from bodily disorders and this cannot always be prevented. The stomach, for instance, Is the most common cause of discon- tent, sour face, reclklessness, disgust and lack of ambition. A bad stom- ach-there is the secret of many a fail- ure. Anyone can have good stomach, a strong stomach that can take care of anything and everything that is put into it, no matter whether it is a very bad stomach now or not. Then why not have it?
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do this very thing One ingredient of these lit tie tablets digests 3,eOO grains of food, and no matter how bad is your dys- pepsia or indigestion, these tablets will digest everything in your stomach, thoroughly and completely, and better and quicker than a healthy stomach can do the same thing. Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets will cure quickly loss of appetite, brash, irritation, burning sen stations. nausea, heartburn eructations, loss of vim and spirit, bad memory, and dyspepsia and indigestion in their very worst forms.
 No other little tablets in the world can do so much. You should carry Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets around with you wherever you go and take them after meals Then only will you realize what it is to enjoy meal, and what perfect digestion means Your whole body and your mind will feel the effects; your vim will increase, you will. be more satisfied with what the world does, you will think happier and be happier, and your face will be one of supreme contentment. That will bring you success and then more success, Your face will bring you dollars. Try it. It will cost you just soc. for a package of these wonderful Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets at any drug store pn earth.
 Send us your name and address to-. day, and we will at once send you b. mail a sample package free Adires r. A. Stuart Co.,, 51 Stuart Bldg Mar shall, Mich.

.ON MUNICIPAL CHARTERS.
COMPASSION ON UNIFORMITY OF
 SAME TO MEET.
Doubtful as to Results-The Permanent CIerkship of BiIs-Tbe Colonial In- surance Company PrOiect--The Man uaI and Roll of senate and House.

uaI and ROll of senate 0nd HOuSe'
 Hartford, Feb, 14.-The commission oil uniformity of. municipal charters, which was appointed by the general assembly of 1905, will told { meeting in Hartford on Monday, February IS, at the call of Mayor William F. He1ney, to make up it's report The effort has been made by the commission to for mulate a model municipal charter, which will be reported to the present legislature. The only recommendation that can be made is that this charter may be adopted by any city in the state. But the idea of forcing 1t upon the cities is not thought of by the com- mission The state of New York, which has municipal code, has had an experience in uniformity of charters that has been studied thoroughly by the Connecticut mayors. The uniform charter does not stand in the way of amendments by the legislature and AL bany is flooded every year with bills changing and revising municipal laws of cities throughout the state The whole idea of charter uniformity may be abandoned at the meeting next Monday of the commission.
 The recommendation of Governor Woodruff in favor of making the posi- tion of clerk of bills permanent has be- gun to bear fruit in the house and sen ate, bills having been introduced mak- ing the clerkship of the two houses permanent during good behavior and appointing Messrs. Baldwin and Spof- ford, the present incumbents, perma- nent officials If the notion of per- nancy Is to be applied in the Senate and House clerkships, it could not be used at better advantage than in the retention of Alfred c. Baldwin of the Senate and John A. Spofford of the House. The work which these clerks have carried out in the last week in the preparation of the journals is a marvel. Hundreds of bills and resolu tions from the two houses had to be digested and put into shape for the state printers. The clerks remained in Hartford over Sunday and worked out the problem in the most creditable Ndy. lie pefHldH6Hl ISlClitlOll III VI flee of Clerks Baldwin and spofford would ensure journal work by the best character
 The insurance committee will make favorable showing on the bill incorpo- rating the Colonial Insurance company of Hartford, which will take up. the business on the Pacific slope contracted by the Colonial Underwriters associa- tion, which is owned by the National, The incorporators of the new company are directors in the National Fire of this city. The committee had a hear ing this afternooif on the bill put in in the interest of the State Business Mems association, requiring the ap- pointment of a commission of three for the regulation of fire insurance rates in Connecticut.
 The manual ana roll of the Senate and House, which has been prepared by William H. Taylor of Putnam, will be ready for the members this week.
