GREAT STORY
DRAMATIZED
A Play Full of Stirring Life and
Thrilling Action in the
First Great Gold
Rush to Alaska.

Intricate plot, full of action and
human interest.
The Spoilers" which viii como
to the Grand opera house on next
Wednesday night. IS lngeniously
constructed, and lovers of plain dra-
matte fiction cannot fail to detect In
It qualities which arey are sure TO
admire Rex Beach has put enough
human interest and dramatic mate;
rial in "The Spoilers" for half
dozen plays.
Each Of the leading characters OF
this great play combine enough def
mite traits to equip a whole commu-
nifty of people. Yet its intricate ram
flying interests are pieced and dove
tailed together with extraordinary
technical skill; they are all plaus-
able and work out logically at the
end.
The scenes are laid in the gold
fields of Alaska with Nome as the
center OF interest and the story of
the play hinges around the attempted
swindle of the miners of Nome and
vicinity by a syndicate OF wealthy
Eastern capitalists. Nearly every.
body in the great West has read
the book, and Il Is needless TO say
that at least half of them remember
the story of the struggles and hard
ships OF Glenister and his compan-
ions to retain possession OF their
property, and their final victory
over the swindlers.
Mr. McRae has staged this play in
sumptous manner, and the COM
pany, numbering IS. is composed
of some of Americas best actors.
Miss Margaret oswold, a charming
and popular leading woman, heads
the company, supported by such we'll
known people as Allen Holluber,
Frank McQuarrie, ]. Webb Law
renee and others. The engagement
in this city will be one night only

USUALLY ONE DOSE
ENDS DIGESTION

II your meals don't ft comforts
ably. or you feel bloated after eat
ing and you believe it is the food
which fills you; &c what little you
eat lies like q lump on your stom-
ach; Il there is difficulty in breath
ing after eating, eructations of sour,
undigested food and acid, heart
burn, brash or a belching of gas, you
can make up your mind that you
need something to stop food fer
mentadon and cure indigestion.
To make every bite of food you
eat aid in the nourishment and
strength of your body, you must rid
your stomach of polsons, excessive
acid and stomach gas which sours
your entire meal-interferes with
digestion and causes so many suf-
ferers of Dyspepsia, sick headache,
birlousness. constipation, gripping,
etc. Your case Is no different
YOU are a stopach sufferer, though
you may call Il by some other name;
your real and only trouble is that
which you eat does not digest, but
quickly ferments and sours, produc-
ing almost any unhealthy condition.
a case OF Pape's Diapepsin will
cost so cents at any pharmacy here,
and will convince any stomach sut-
ferer FIVE minutes after taking a
single dose that fermentation and
sour stomach is causing the misery

.name-always remember that a cer-
tain cure Is waiting at any drug

gin its use.

members of the bar and private citi-

eral to bring the proceeding to test
the .constitutionality Of the act.
This case does that without bring

only motive, besides sustaining the
lower court is that the people of the
state are entitled to know whether
the supreme court is constitution

of the bar are anxious to have the
question permanently settled"
