Al The Theatre
wENaTCHEE THEATRE TONIGHT.
Press Agents Promises.

Tonight Mr.. Tanning essays the
role that has given him more lauda-
tory notices than almost any of his
characteriZations that of Father
Whalen, the parish priest, who is
symbolic of the kindly hearted and
gentle-mannered old Irish Catholic
priest-who we so often meet
broad-minded and bubbling over with
Irish wit. This character was por-
trayed by Dan Sully, but Mr.. Fan
nings portrayal has been reviewed by
critics and unstinted praise has been
given him.
Tonight the play is entirely diff
ferent from Young Mrs. Winthrop,
for it is a comedy il every sense, and
laughter is the predominating feature
in tonight's performances. Miss How
ard has an entirely different part and
portrays light-hearted Irish girl eX-
cellently in her portrayal of Nelly
Dirkin. Mr.. Jose Leo sustains the
old Irish servant who. continually
butts in with the most laughable re-
marks, and is a scream from start
to finish. Miss Doyle, Miss AllWyn
and Miss MuIlaly are all most admir-
ably cast. as are the rest of the MEM
bers of this high-class company.

LANDED HIS man
the Berries When a RoWdy Tries
to Start Rough House.

In a lively sCufIle with an ObnOX-
ious person Monday night Constable
Simmons demonstrated his ability as
a cath-as-catch can man, and landed
his game safely at the city jug.
While walking along Wenatchee
avenue the attention of Mr.. Simmons
was called to a stranger who seemed
intent on addressing uncalled for re-
marks to passing women, and who
evidently insisted on not minding his
own business.
With the thought of duty ever up
permost in his mind the constable
kept his man in view and followed
him into a local confectionery store,
thinking that the fellow might cause
trouble. And sure enough trouble
came The fellow asked for cigar
and was informed that no cigars were
sold there. Not content with this an
swer he called for cigars again,
whereupon the salealsdy turned her
attention to other customers in the
store. Then the rowdy, with an
oath, said that he would make her
speak to him. Just then the consta-
BILE stepped forward and laid his
hand on the other mans shoulder,
and told him to get out and get out
quickly. In stead of leaving, the ruf-
fan made a pass at Mr.. Simmons,
which the latter warded off and came
back with a right hook to the jaw,
which made his man temporarily take
the count.
When he came to his senses, he
found that the constable was leading
him along and making a bee line for
the little cement house on the hill.
He tried TO break loose from the
deputy, but Simmons was right there
with the berries and fOOred his man
with a cross-buttock hold. This put
the finishing touches on, and the con-
stable. with the aid OF Night Patrol
man Bob Nelson, placed his man in
the police station.
Moral: When the authorities" tell
you to move on, it is better to put an
egg in your shoe and beat it than to
stop and argue.

ORIENTAL RUGS.
Why Those That Are Made by Hand
Work Cost So Much.

The simple apparatus is still in use
In outlying districts-home dye tubs
filed with colors extracted from
sleeps blood, larkspur, indigo, tuner
ic, saffron, mulberry. walnut husks.
brass combs for carding and distaffs
whirled by hand Between two sticks
held horizontally by supports at the
ends are strung threads drawn taut,
harp fashion. Then worsted yarn is
passed over and under Ele strings
twice Songs are sung-songs trans
mitted from old to young. so ancient,
some of them that they are in lost
language-and these songs tell the
weaver what colors to tie in as she
progresses with the pattern. Each
district has its own patterns and
songs. After each knot the ends of
the yarn are scissored off to form the
pile.
In a close woven piece like Kir.
man. measuring a mere 8 by s feet.
there are 400 knots to the square
inch. AS the weaver's speed is aboEt
three knots a minute. four years Of
continuous labor would be required on
such a rug. Within that time some
fingers would stop weaving forever:
others would go on with it. Was it
any wonder. the rug hunter asked me.
that no two old rugs, even from the
same village and the same household.
were ever just alike? A bereavement
would induce a greater unconscious
use Of white; bridal would turn the
weavers thoughts to scarlet and vic.
tories of war to yellow. Local environ
ment, family happenings, removals
from town to desert and desert to
mountain, would each have effect. Cos
sip of harems, the tink!e Of silver
anklets, the alarms of brigands, the
e1ations of religions, all would go into
the rug.
Then" l interrupted the hunter, 'if
they still dye and weave as of o,d,
rugs are being made now that eventr

If the west were willing to say to
The east, I'VE will give you five or ten
years to make a rug" if it would say
that, then age and gentle wear would

YOUNG MRS.
WINTHROP
Wenatchee Audience Delighted with
Opening Bill of Fanning-How-
ard Company.

A large and appreciative audience
at Wenatchee theatre greeted the re-
turn of the Fanning-Howard company
to this city last evening. The piece
presented was a pleasing drama, de-
pictjng real life in the Upper Ten So
ciety of New York city, and was en-
titled Young Mrs. Winthrop" 1t
is the sto"y of hustling New York
business man, who becomes so in
tent upon the one idea of increasing
his wealth that he unintentionaily
neglects his young and beautiful wife.
The wife, becoming lonely, rushes
into the whirl OF society in an at

despite the p~otestations of her hus-
band, she is confronted with the Sc
rICus illness Of her only child, Little
Rosie, who dies before her mother
can see her. Misunderstanding rave
arisen between husband and wife,
and separation is deemed the only
way out of the difficulty However,
eXplana ions follow, and these mis3In-
Gerstandings are cleared up, and
there is the happy reunion of hus-
band and wife in the last act. Inter-
woven with the main story is the
story of the blind sister and her lover,
of another society leader and of the
bachelor lawyer, all aiding in the
happy ending.
Miss Howard, as Constance Win
throp, was a delight 70 all. and she
was ably seconded by Mr.. Thomas
Clarke, the leading man. Miss Clara
Doyle made an excellent matron, and
Miss Pauline Allyn was a typical
gushing society woman. Miss An
nette Mullaly played the difficult part
Of Edith, the blind sister of Con-
stance. and it is needless to say that
Mr.. Tanning pleased. The other
members of the cast carried off their
parts in creditable manner

SUGAR AS FOOD.
Used With Discrimination, 1t Is an Aid
to Good Health.

There is a prejudice against sugar
which Is not justified by physiological
reasoning" says the London Lancet.
Sugar is one of the most powerful
foods which we possess, as it is the
cheapest or at any rate one of the
cheapest In muscular labor no food
appears to be able to give the same
powers of endurance as sugar. and
comparative practical experiments
have shown without the least doubt
that the hard physical worker. the
athlete or the soldier on the march is
much more equal to the physical strain
placed upon him when he has had in
cluded IN ais diet lib@"aI allowance
Of sugar than when sugar is denied to
him.
TROPHIES. prizes and cups have I'M
doubtedly been won on diet in which
sugar was Intentionally notable con.
stituent. 1t has even been said that
sugar may decide battle and that
Jam after all is something more than
mere swcetmeat to the soldier. The
fact that sugar is a powerful muscle
food accounts probably for the dsfa-
vor into which it falls. for q compare
lively small quantity amounts to an
excess. and excess is always inimical
to the easy working of the digestive
processes.
Sugar satiates; it is a concentrated
food. Where sugar does harm. there
fore, it is invariably due to excess
Taken in small quantities and distrib-
uted over the daily food intakes. sugar
contributes most usefully in health to
the supply of energy required by the
body.
"And 1t is curious fact that the
man who practically abstains from
sugar or reduces his diet to one almost
free from carbohydrates in favor of
protein foods, such as meat. often
shows feeble muscular energy and an
Indifferent capacity for ply steal endur-
ance."

SEARCHING FOR
UNIATILLA WATER

Percy A. Cupper assistant state en-
gineer, was in Echo Monday on his
way up the Umatllla river endeavor-
ing to gather information concerning
the amount of seepage and evapora-
ton of waters in the Umatllla river:
There is a determined effort on the
part of the state officials the initia-
tory step having been taken by Gov
ernor Chamberlain, to gather all pos
sible data that will be of assistance
to the people in determining their
action when water legislation shall
again be presented either to the state
legislature or to the people through
the initiative and referendum. Mr..
Cupper expressed the hope that at the
next legislature laws would be en-
acted looking to the adjudication Of
water rights. The records OF Umatilla
county now show that four times the
amount of water passing down the
Umatilla at its highest flood flow has
been filed upon, which would natur-
ally lead to the conclusion that some
OF the rights are worthless and that
no more water could be appropriated,
whereas there is a great quantity of
unused water up to about the first
of June each year. This would indi-
cate that the original water rights
called for a great deal more water
than Is needed. The water question
in Oregon is one that must be given
careful attention, and it is hoped
that the engineers department will
be able to suggest some laws that will
solve the problem. Echo Register.
