n NE of the novelties of the present
" theatrical season is "Brswster's
Millions" 1t is the stage version of
George Barr McCutcheons story of a
young man who is compelled to spend
one million dollars a year Frederic
| Thompson, who staged the play, has
| introduced some striking stage pic
lures. One is a storm at sea with the
| entire stage representing an ocean
going yacht, which is moved by the
motion of the waves, and this is said
to be one of the most unusual pieces
of mechanism ever introduced upon
the stage. The story of the play deals
with the efforts of Montgomery Brew
ster to spend in a year 81 900, 600, an
inheritance from his grandfather to OBJ
tain a bequest of 100000 wiled under
certain conditions to him by an uncle
The acceptance of the bequest left him
by his grandfather must be disposed
of within a year. He must not gam
BILE endow or give away anything, but
must spend it for some tangible pur-
pose and receive receipt therefor. He
is also sworn to secrecy in regard to
the whole affair Even the few who
do not care for the comedy and The
ingenuity of plot in "Brewster's Mil
lions say: You must be sure to see
the yacht scene it's worth the while
going to see just for the third act. :"
For this scene is said to be one of the
Cleverest pieces of staging ever devils
ed The third act opens with Brew
ster's yacht in port rocking lazily with
the swell of the tide. In the distance
are the moving waves and behind them
the lights of the little seacoast village
and the winkling eye of a lighthouse
flashing alternate red and white. The
whole stage seems to be in gentle mo-
tion except the lights in the far dis
lance.
The deck, with the whole company
and crew upon it, rises and falls, as
if it were the deck of a real yacht
rocking i'm real waves. The deck Of
the yacht is practically the deck of
real yacht, a vast piece of property
some forty feet long by fifteen broad.
1t is mounted on rubber-tired wheels
in the center along its longitudinal
axis. At each of the four corners is a
lever, and with two stage hands to a
lever the yacht is made to rock back
and forth on the supporting wheels.
Back of the yacht is the water.
This is made up of six frames set one
in front of another about two feet
apart Each is a yard wide, as long
as the width Of the proscenium arch,
and supported by a wire at both ends
from the flies They are called in the
scene shifters vernacular "set-wa-
tiers" or more accurately, hanging
waters" Their color ranges from a
deep blue in the first to a deep green
i'm the last, and all are bathed in pale
blue and green radiance from flood
lights above, below and at the sides.
The front three are made to swing
slowly back and forth with the chang
ing lights Of two stereopticons flicker
ing upon them, and the result. when
seen from the audience is a wonder
full picture of moving waves-such an
illusion that some sensitive spectators
have even been made seasicll by watch
ing it,

for all the world like a great gigantic

The little village" and lighthouse"
form property" which is set on a
little semi-circular track. When the
yacht is supposed to steam off the vii
lage and lighthouse are simply rolled
down the track. With the motion of
the waves and of the storm clouds
above you again have a perfect illu-
sion.
Those storm clouds are perhaps the
most perfect feature of the whole see
mic effect They are actual motion

the back uy two biographs concealed
behind the cabin and the forecastle OF

There is one fault in the realism OF
this scene-the yacht faces the gale
with every stitch of canvas set.
IF any man could tell me any way
to avoid it, | would put money in his
pocket" said Mr. Thompson. The
sails are scenic necessities, screening
the trough of lights in the flies above.

any way to reef them or take them IN
without exposing row after row Of

mechanical end of this act a four
horse power engine, weighing a ton,
is carried simply to blow the big mar
inc whistle required twice in the act.
So heavy and complicated are the
yacht and the other scenic appliances
that they cannot be taken on tour in
one-night stands. The scene requires
fourteen electricians and twenty-eight
stage hands.
There are seven college graduates
among the leading players in Brew

Abeles graduated from the College OF

The Advertiser is quick to rush to
the defense of Iaukea in all his troubles
and very sensitive as to any reflections
cast upon the police department. For
my part l think the department is do
ing very well, but it is becoming weak

any special Importance to Harry Juen's
kick about bad faith.-the complaints
of a discharged officer against his
superior don't usually carry weight Of
themselves. But l think Iaukea lost
the confidence of some of his former
earnest supporters when he practically
helped Brown to become prosecuting
officer. The claims upon which Tau
kea got his Office are so glaringly in
consistent with his attitude towards
Brown as a candidate for prosecuting
attorney as to excite general disgust.
If Brown is what Iaukea tried in the
campaign to make him out, he has no
business in the Office, if he is not, then
Iaukeas is guilty, as Browns friends
have all along thought, OF taking ad-
vantage Of a long-cOntinued personal,
malicious fight against Brown to get
Office for himself Neither horn Of the
dilemma can be taken with credit Tau
kea has another political weakness in

Declaring that all the religions of the

Gifted in speech. adept in the use Of
singing sarcasm and invective. enthuSed
by his faith, angered at it's condemnation
by other churches, the speaker flayed
without mercy the beliefs which the
world has nurtured for nearly 1000 years
and proclaimed anew the doctrine that
the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day
Saints is the only true church. When
he scored the preachers of the gospel Of
other faiths, when he announced that
polygamy is and will always be a tenet
of this newer conception of the lesson
taught to all mankind by Jesus of NaZa-
reth and when he declared that neither
church nor state could compel him to
renounce his wives, the 10000 devOut fol-
lowers of the Prophet Joseph Smith ap-
plauded. They applauded with a vigOr,

DUCK CREEK DISTRICT.
Strike Made Near Ely Which May

tSpec al to The HeTald)
F.iv s.sV., June 9.--The people of this
vicinity are greatly interested in a strike
made last week in the Duck Creek CouG-
try. about twenty-five miles east of here.
l.. c. Carter and his son. Z. s Carter.
returned Saturday night from Duck
Creek where they located six claims. Ac-
cording to the information given by the
two the country has never been prospect
ed and there is a fine formation of cop
per in the district. They spent week
there and traced 5000 feet and dug down
about five feet The samples brought in
by the two show low grade ore. well
stained however. There is a great body
If the ore in sight and it is within fifty
wards of the creek. The land is covered
with forests of fine timber and the water

return to their property neTt week to
make further investigation. but before go

we stand hand i'm hand by the open grave
they still respond to the call of love and
duty and fulfill their covenants as W.
must ours"
Then in a tone which thundered through
the great hall, the speaker said:
Duty as He Sees 1t.
II shall do my duty as my conscience
dictates and | shall stand by my belief,
though church and state both proclaim
against it."
As he uttered these words the congre-
cation applauded and the applause showed
by its spontaneity that the sentiment OF
the speaker was in the hearts OF his
listeners. In fact. every thrust at the
religion of others was accorded the same
demonstration.
When the speaker declared that all
ministers OF other faiths are seKless; that
they are only fit for pink teas" that
they do not know the world or it's ways
and that they are bigOtS of the worst
kind. the applause was marked and
showed the leaning of the congregation.
In his discourse on pOlygamy Mr.. Rob
erts said in part:
Not at First Understood.
'POlygamy is the darling theme Of the
reviewers of our faith. 1t is claimed that
there is no means of knowing the status
of this subject in any of the principles of
the Latter-day Saints. Our reviewers ex-
press the opinion that plural marriages
been many plural marriages since the
manifesto. These gentlemen are not quite
candid. They do not believe that all
those in this state. in or out of the church.
who know existing conditions are of the
opinion that plural marriages have ceased.
1t IS true that no proclamation is at first
understood and when the announcement
was made bS President Woodruff and
the advice given that the people of the
faith should contract no plural marriages
contrary to law. there was a question in
the minds of some whether that only ap-
piled to marriages in Utah and the United
States. Ultimately the true meaning was
apparent that the manifesto forbade plural
marriages in all the world. When men be-
lieved that way there was but one thing
to be done and that was to believe that
all those who contracted such maria yes
were out of harmony with the church and
they either withdrew or rendered their
designations to the church.
At this point the speaker took up the
belief of the church in polygamy and
announced the irrevOcable doctrine that
although the laws forbade its practice
the members of the sect still adhered Il
| it. He said:
Hands off HereI
| "The complaint is made that pOlygamy
! is only abolished as to practice. but that
/ the principle is still held by the church
as one of its beliefs. What of it? Whose
