AT THE AUDITORIUM.

The many admirers OF stalwart
William Farnum were more than
pleased with his presentation at the
Auditorium yesterday of The Con-
Queror." q massive and thrilling
photo-dramatic romance based on
the life of one Of Americas frontier
heroes, Gen. Sam Houston. which
character Mr.. Farnum pOrtrays. This
wonderful production made use of
several hundreds of Indians, Mexi-
cans and live stock, and the battle
scenes in which many cannon were
used. are tremendous; the love story
is one of infinite charm and the
dramatic action builds up to a thrill
ing climax. In the picture Sam
Houston is first shown as a diamond
in the rough, living among the Cher
okee Indians and Indifferent TO the
call of his white brethren. But when
he meets the Tennessee rose, played
by charming Jewel Carman, he un-
dergoes a complete change. From
that moment he is filed with uncOn-
querable ambition and the picture
carries him through the various
steps in his career. from constable
TO governor, and from governor to
the general who repulses, with the
aid of his Cherokee friends, an army
of Mexicans, and saves the woman
he loves from the hands of the rem
egade leader of the raiding greas-
ers. Among the other members of
the supporting cast are Charles
Clary, ]. A. Marcus and Robert Dun
bar. The principal Indian roles are
played by the Sioux chiefs, William

A GREAT CHANCE
ENTERS INTO LIFE
OF STOREKEEPER

A certain unassumins gentleman
in this city who happens to be
prominent dealer i'm furniture and
who up to a few weeks asO had be
come a recluse because of his ply
steal condition tells this remarkable
and most interesting tale:
For q number of years, he said,
Il have been so closely confined TO
my business working zealously to
make my store representative in
every respect that wear and tear
finally got me, my face became
drawn and haggard and my dis
position seemed TO urge people TO
evade me. 1t was then that / be-
gan TO despise my own company.
My bOokkeeper who had been with
me long time one day suggested
that j needed a rest and that my
nerves required attention she told
me that her father had been in the
state of health which I was eX-
periencing and that ne had taken
Phosphated Iron. Look at him
now she said. He works ten hours
a day and appears TO be the hap
piest man in the world which he
believes he is, he says.
All this happened less than o
month ago. L followed the advice
and look at me now Back in the
harness with a smile all the while.

When / see a tired looking face the
name of Phosphated Iron imme-
diately comes in my mind. / am
convinced that it is converting many

performance, as "a sort of keynote

tone which assisted the illusion that
ne was an opera singer with the
world at his feet. Their duet The
Garden of Romance" was one of the
most effective pieces in the play.
Frank Mcintyre was the chief fun
maker. He has an inimitable way
that insinuates itself into the graces
of his audience as he proceeds The
laughs are more spontaneous as his
opportunities multiply with the
progress OF the action. His most eff
fective work was in the trio with
Zoe Barnett and Frank DOane in
which the old time melodrama was
enough in the musical shows. now,
Heaven knows. but which was done
with a Zest that put it over well last
night. Miss Barnett scored tremen-
dOusly with her "She Was q Very
Good Girl ON sunday" rendered in
her dashing style. George Leon
Moore sang we'll and acted convinC-
iugly as Rosie's lover.
Mae Hennessey, an accomplished
danseuse. led the ballet with telling
effect. and with Charles DeHaven
gave an eccentric dance which won

ton was deliberately mounted in the
gorgeous manner for which its pro-
ducers have become known and the
chorus was both large and satisfy
