TIB public still has a keen taste for the wild West drama In spite of the flood of them that has kept the manufac turers of shooting Irons and chapperos busy during the past ten years. The modern cowpuncher play Is but a decade old. "Arizona" started the trouble and since It hit the bullseye so hard there have been scores of plays on similar lines, some good, many bad and others Indifferent. And the public Is not yet satiated with them. "The Lieutenant and the Cowboy" was seen locally for the first time yesterday at the Baker and the usual Sunday audi ences took It as greedily as though the frontier show was a distinct nevelty. The action occurs at an Imaginary military post In New Mexico with the customary grizzled Colonel, his scrumptuous daugh ter, the brave but ungrammatlcal hero who sleeps In his "chapps." the hand some but terribly wicked young officer who almost get the girl but doesn't be cause the wronged woman get Into the game In time to delay the roarriaee until the Lieutenant connects with a pistol bullet. Also there is the weak young cub who gets Into trouble over gambling debts, not to speak of comedy postmis tress, ditto stage driver and likewise "non-com." All the Ingredients are there Includ ing a stage hold-up and a revolver duel. Just before the orchestra starts to play the walk-out the proud but beautiful heroine falls Into the rude but chlvalric hero's arms, and once again we have been instructed In care-free, pastoral ex istence which the happy denizens of the sagebrush country lead. Interpreting "The Lieutenant and the Cowboy" Is a company of some claims to acting ability. George R. Matison and Lorraine Keene, the leads, do satisfac torily the roles of Bob Rolston, the cow boy, and the Colonel's fair daughter, Ruth. George D.

Members of Sumner Post Recall At trlhntes of One Who An swers Last Rollcall. "In memory of Comrade F. R. Neale." was the single topic at the meeting, of Sumner Post No. 12. G. A. R., Saturday night. One week ago Comrade Neale made the motion that a "campflre" of the post be held Saturday night, and the motion was carried unanimously, a committee having been appointed to make the arrangements. Within a few hours after Comrade Neale had made the motion he answered the last call, and Instead of good humor, army stories, songs, "sharp-shooting" all along the line from the "old boys," instead of the long tables surrounded by the icomrades partaking of coffee and refreshments In remembrance of the camp life at the front, there was sadness in the hall. There were sad faces and moist eyes among the gathering of battle-scarred veterans, for a comrade they all loved, a comrade that had been a useful and active member, had passed away. So the campflre scenes were put away and the entire evening waa devoted to Temarks on the . life and services of Comrade Felix R. Neale. Under the head of good of the order over 15 talks were made by different members, and among that large number each one was able to recall some good act or (join rane ieaie. His patriotism In remaining In the Union Armv when his own state was wavering. his long services in the Wejt on the frontier and his bravery in many of the leading battles of the Civil War. and finally his services to the post, his K.ndly manner, robust honesty ana integrity his discharge of every duty, all were set forth by M. L. Pratt, J. A. isewen, 1 Vj-nwnn and others. Comrade Neale was the Rlst member of Rnmner Post to answer me last can, and nearly the entire personel of the membership has changed within the last few years.

THAT waa a most sprightly conceit which came to George Barr Mc Cutcheon before he wrote his novel "Brewster's Millions." A very pretty Idea, that, of having the alternative of legitimately spending a million dollars In a twelvemonth or losing an Inheritance of seven times that value. Have you ever considered such diverting quandary? Most of us have speculated on what we might do should a great fortune come to us over night, but think of what faced Monte Brewster, having Just been raised from poverty by Inheriting a million, when fast on the heels of his new for tune comes another tentative bequest of $7,000,000, provided he spends every penny of the tainted money which comprises the first million. It's funny just to think about such a thing dispassionately but when one may watch the working out of the puzzle it proves quite a fascinating matter. The adapters of McCutcbeon's novel made quite a good Job of it and so it comes about that ""Brewster's Millions" Is a show that is worth seeing even in Its second season of touring the Coast. It came for the second time to the Heilig last night and more than sustained the favorable impression made last year. In fact I'm inclined to regard the pres ent cast as superior to the forerunners, and the famous yacht scene, on which much of its bid for fame rests, 1b pro duced equally as effectively as on the former occasion. That particular achieve ment In stago mechanics is, by the way, the very best marine scene ever seen in the provinces. Young Monte Brewster, whose difficul ties He in disposing of his million with out revealing the secret to anyone, is a likable sort of boy as played by Robert Ober. "Bob" Mantell and Sothern, not to mention the deified Hackett, will not lie awake nights worrying that Ober may put them on the shelf, but Ober fills the requirements In the main quite satisfac torily. Charlotte Lambert, a Junoesque beaut-. Is a comfortably satisfyingyoung chaperons as Mrs. Dan DeMille, while little June Mathis, In the ingenue role of "Peggy," Is the bright particular glim mer of the show. Katherlne Ray. an attractive-looking girl, who looks like some body else, does a lackadaisical part, as it is intended, not forgetting that Norman McDonald as Monsieur Bargie has an ac cent that needs no alterations. People who like something light and effervescently active with some pretty gowns and the really remarkable yacht scene will be altogether happy at a per formance of "Brewster's Millions." It will continue to be the Heilig offering for three nights more. A Navajo's Love at the Bungalow CAST. 1 Major Courtland. of the Army re tired list William Dills H. D.

Wire Jim Williams, of the Western Union Sam Goldberg Paul Arnold, of Wall Street Earl Plngree TO an "overflow" house at the Bun galow Theater, "A Navajo's Love," a four-act drama by Bcdlcy Brown, mads Its initial appearance yesterday afternoon. Shorn of superfluities, the story runs as follows: Julian Navajo, an Indian, with French blood in his veins, and Arthur La Salle, both stock brokers In Wall street, are in lovs with Alice King, daughter of H. D. King, La Salle being King's partner. Alice's father has lost his daughter's money In speculation, and seeks to re gain her fortune for her by marrying her to La Salle. Navajo and La Salle engage In a commercial duel with rail road stocks as the weapons, and La Salle is about to be beggared, when Navajo discovers that La Salle Is the man who. as a former bugler in the Army, had saved his life during a mas sacre by the United States troops. Na vajo releases his advantages, and La Salle's wealth Is unharmed. Alice refuses to marry La Salle, In an Interview with her father, and La Salle afterwards voluntarily releases her from her engagement. This leaves her free to marry Navajo. A retired Colonel, an operatic tenor, an adventuress, a ser vanda Wall street man.and Running Fox. a gentleman belonging to the Iroquois tribe, are more or less negligibly con nected with the unfolding of the story, and William Gleason makes an accept able father. "A Navajo's Love" Is decidedly enter taining, although there is some crudity apparent, hardly Inseparable from a first production: and that the audience was captured was apparent from the gener ous applause and the many curtain calls to the three principals. Miss Izetta Jewel, Sidney Ayres and William Mong fairly divided the honors between them. Miss Jewel was always charming and graceful, and had a reserve force of emo tional magnetism which made her por trayal of the role of Alice, sweet end human, and some of her gowns were The Policyholder Company Is Best for Orcgonjljfc Contribute to !

The author of tho play has left It to the actor s Imagination as to where the faint line ot demarcation should be drawn in the character of Na vajo as a stock broker, and Navajo as a man with the misty traditions of prairie and forest still dimly in his make-up. Mr. Ayres has sensed right well In the innate reserve of the red man, and has at times caught the smoldering fire of the race. Once, at least, the tragic touch came, and adequately. When Navajo finds that La Salle has made him drunk, so as to disgrace him In the sight of Alice, In his half-dazed state, leaving the room supported by his Iroquois servant. Run ning Fox, he lifts his hands as the look out scouts of Sitting Bull might have raised their palms at the sight of Cus ter's columns; and in that gesture, and In his cry of "La Salle, La Salle," there Is the Indian's cry of revenge, the sav age, though garbed in modern habili ments. Mr. Mong In the thankless and con tradictory role of La Salle, acquitted himself with force and distinction., par ticularly In the scene where his saving of Navajo's life is accidently revealed. His part calls for a "medium" brand of villainy, a species of "good" bad man, as the lines go, and what more difficult part could be imagined? Miss Maribcl Seymour was excellent as Doctress Dean, who falls in love In spite of her diploma. . The 'company handles the minor and major parts with good judgment, but there are some stage pic tures Indulged In which distract atten tion from the main characters and Inci dents in the play. Taken as a whole, the play moves steadily up until ths close of the last act.. The finale between Alice and Navajo could be made more magnetic more in keeping with the fiery and untamed character of Navajo when great emotions sweep across his' nature. This ending is gentle, and takes on a mournful tinge, when it should end on the top note of love and triumph. Manager Baker is to be congratulated on the accession of the play to his com pany's repertoire, and their ability to give it a faithful and entertaining rep resentation. "A Navajo's Love" is most certainly well worth seeing. Save money at Rosenthal's shoe sale. t' t . RUSSELL H. COKWKLU The brilliant preacher, author and )rator, who will give his famous lec ture.
