POLI'S.

While his appearance in THE Con-
spiracy" this week may be his last as
the Poll Players leading man in this
city. Carl Brickert scored his greatest
hit here last evening in the part Of the
crotchety old writer Of crime stories. The
play gives exceptional opportunity to
Mr.. Brickert and Miss Morgan in serious
dramatic roles. 1t has given Mr.. Brick
ert quite the best thing he has done here
AS the old man who Is interested in lit
tie else save crime, and the futile efforts
Of the police to detect it, he brings out
qualities that limitations Of other roles
he has played have compelled to remain
dormant. In makeup and in acting he
seemed to realize the part in most
complete and satisfying manner
THE Conspiracy" is a crime play, pure
and simple, which is supposed to tell
something Of the Vaccinations Of the
famous gunner Of New York. It relates
the story Of a young woman, the sister
of an assistant district attorney, who
Is made victim Of the gang on her ar
rival in New York. and her treatment is
nude the basis Of a relentless pursuit
Of the criminals by the brother. The
brother, by the way, is one Of those
stage figures who loom large in the
story, but does not appear frequently or
prominently In person On the stage.
The play begins after the murder Of
the chief Of the gunmen by the girl, after
she had worked for him as a stenog-
rapher. She Is hired by the writer Of
crime stories who learns her story and
helps her bring the criminals to justice.
In addition to the very careful work
done by Miss Morgan as the heroine,
Mr.. Fillmore in the part Of a newspaper
reporter shows to excellent advantage.
The remainder Of the cast was entirely
adequate.

Poll Players Are to

a complete reorganization Of the Pol
Players in this city. as well as the
various Poll companies throughout the
country, is TO be Immediately under

Poll Theater here last evening releasing
every member Of the local company
The notice was posted Just after the
matinee performance yesterday. and
the first intimation the members OF the
CON pany received was when they re-
turned to the theater last evening for
the night performance.
The action Of the management created
CONSERVATION among the players. Man.
agcr James Thatcher stated that the
>Order dismisSng the company came d.
rect from Mr.. Poll and was in line
with a policy he has adopted Of giving
new companies to all the Poll houses.
He states that the dismissal here does
not necessarily mean that the players
are to be thrown out Of employment. as
they may De given places in other Poll
organizations.

Good Advice For Thin, Undevel0ped
Men and Women.
Thousands of people suffer from ex-
cesslVe thinness. weak nerves, and
feeble stomachs who. having tried ad-
Vertlsed fesh-makers, food-fads, physi-
cal culture stunts. and rub-on creams,
resign themselves to lifelong thinness
and think nothing will make them fat.
Yet their case Is not hopeless. A re-
Gently discovered regenerative force
makes fat grow after years of thin
ness, and Is also unequaled for repair
ing the waste Of sickness or faulty di-
gestlon and for streng thening the
nerves. This remarkable discovery is
called Sargol. Six strength giving, fat
producing elements of acknowledged
merit have been combined in this peer
less preparation, which is endorsed by
eminent physicians and used by promi-
nent people everywhere. 1t is absolutely
harmless. inexpensive, and efficient.
a months systematic use of Sargol
should produce flesh and strength by
correcting faults Of digestion and by
supplying highly concentrated fats to
the blood. Increased nourishment is OBJ
tanned rom the food eaten, and The
additional fats that thin people need
are provided Jas. O'Donnell Drug
Stores and other leading druggists sup
ply Sargol, and say there Is a large
demand for it,
While this new preparation has given
splendid results as nerve tonic and
vitaliZer, 1t should not be used by nerv-
Gus people unless they wish to gain at
least ten pounds Of fiesh.--Advt.

BELASCO.

The Whirl of the World" the 1871
Winter Garden show, the delirious
dance craze" is at the Belasco this
| week, with huge cast, much scenery
and many gorgeous costumes. The
audience filled the theater to overflow
lng-an audience which, il not wildly
| enthusiastic. evidently enjoyed the even
ing; finding in last nights production
at least the core of what was the
musical hit in New York's season.
1t is easily seen why THE Whirl of
the World staged with Ralph Herr,
Bernard Granville, Lillian Lorraine,
May Bclez, and Roszika Dolly, was
hugged to the bosom Of the most cold
blooded of American cities, in the light
of whose disapproval or approval hun
dreds of shows yearly fail or are made.
None of these stars are with the play
at the Belasco. Their roles are taken by
lesser lights. Engene and Willie How
ard Of the original cast hold the honors.
They were welcomed with real enthusi-
asm. Washington has been seeing these
two for many years, first in vaude-
Vile, and later in the Passing Show
Of 1872" Willie is real comedian; he
calls into play hands, feet. knees, and
even a small black lock on his forehead
The chorus Is large in number and
marvelously gowned, and out of con-
sideration of the necks of some of the
men and women in the audience the most
gorgeously costumed parade down a
plank which is laid down the center of
the theater. on the tops of the chairs.
During the course Of twelve scenes,
the latest departures in stage mechanics
are demonstrated. The scene in which
a ship sinks at sea, before the eyes, Is
unbelievably realistic. but is slightly
marred by lifeboat which bobs up and
down in the same place
John T. Murry. with many monologues
and songs. amused the audience and
worked hard. Whether or not it was
his inability to get across to the
audience or the inability Of the audi
ence to appreciate him Is difficult to
diagnose, for while he was acceptable
there was that subtle something lack
ing which creates spontaneous enthusi-
aSm
However. the spectacular settings,
the impression of magnifcence and mu-
nificence which the entertainment sheds
held the audience. The absence Of
any Objectionable features is notable,
stunning effects, clever lines. and good
situations being gained without the
usual incursion into the field OF vul-
garity. +. Y.

GAYETY.

Max Spiegers latest Offering, The
Winning Widows" is the attraction

fun out Of the lines.

much charm to the performance.

Fair locks amply pay for the care ane

In washing the hair it is not advisable
