Iter's! MlillonB show. The audience
svns well pleased, for the tun In the
play Is the 60-laughs-nn-hour brand.
The play deals with the new nrt '
of turning up money and It proves
that spending coin U hard work at
times. The hero In this case has a
.confirmed habit ot winning money
on what other people lose a sort of
proverbial good luck that to him Is
anything but Joy.
Under the terms of a will which
makes him legatee to n big fortune i
he must spend all of his grandfath-l
cr's Inheritance before he can come!
into possession of a larger fortune.
The grandfather w.as despised hy the
richer relative and did not want the
young man to have a cent of the ac
cursed money, so he provided that
every cent of it must bo dissipated
"Young Brewster is entirely willing
to burn up the old wretch's coin
when he finds out that "he had abus
ed his deceased mother.
There is a clause, too, in the will
that receipts must be shown for ev
ery cent spent and' that the young
iiian must be Involved In no entan
glng alliances with women at a cer
tain date, on that date he gets pos
CBSsn of the riches.
Young Brewster appoints a corps
of his friends as high salaried as
sistants, lieeps carriages and autos
waiting for hours for passengers
merely to run up bills, puts money
ito collapsing banks, buys the worst
:ocks, tries to get himself fined for
peodlng, sends all his letters and
otes by telegraph, loads up all his
rlend rrith flowers", candles and
luxars, backs actresses and writers
asd still finds it hard to get rid of
the money accumulated.
Finally he plans a costly cruise In
a. yacht that is guaranteed to burn
op more coal than any other craft
afloat. He discovers that one ot his
ancestors lived In Italy, and gets up
a carnival In that town.

FIRST FLOOR PLAN.
SECOND FLOOR PLAN.
This house, from the exterior, would naturally lmprras one as a cottage,
owing to the way In which the broad side of the roof In front Is treated, but
upon careful examination it will be seen that the rooms in the second story
are all full height In carrying out thU idea of treatment of the roof the
architect gets away from -the stereotype style of a hip or the gable roof, and
the design not only looks better, but is symmetrical and harmonious in outline.
The slie of the house is thirty-two feet six Inches wide and twenty-eight
feet deep over the main part. There Is a full basement. The first story Is
nine feet and the second eight feet in the cleAr. Birch doors arc used
throughout, with Washington flr or red oak finish In the first story and pine
to paint in the second.
As a practical plan for a home this design can be recommended. A
feature Is the living room, which Is twenty -seven feet long. Another feature
Is the nrraugement of the stairs. There Is an open stulmise from the recep
tlon ball, also back stalra from the kitchen to the landing of the main stair.
Underneath this one can go Into the baHement either from the kitchen or from

mechanics' arts. It smacks ot the sea j
by Its fidelity, and when tho etorm
breaks ilia electric effects are re
FiirKable. On this yacht, too, senti
ment runs riot, and matches are
tnade right and left.
All through the four acts humor
and wit abound, and laughter is the
rule.
Mr. Andrctvs' View.
.Ed M. Andrews takes the following
Tlw ot tho play: Brewster's Mil
lion, ino book, -was written to en
tertain rather than to Instruct, and
tho play was dramatized for tho same
roason, and it is certainly fulfilling
Its mission. Brewster's Millions at
tho opera house last night was a com
edy well worth seeing. It gives op
portunity for scenic effects that are
hove tbc usual. The storm scene,
i .Ktrtlcular, was very effective.
The cast Is a large ono and In last
Ight's performance every part was
iorouglily well sustained. Tho char
acters como and go with such fre
quency that thore Is no opportunity
lor any ono actor to make a very
deep Impression, aside from Mont
Eomery Brewster, who is tho central
flgur- of tho play, and tho character
of Peggy, played by Miss Lytton,
who has somo very good scenes with
BrewBter.
Of course, tho dramatist Intention-1
ally wrote a one-part play, ami the
success of last night's performance I
rested entirely with Royal Tracy, who i
played tho part of Montgomery Brow- j

I wish to convey Is that tho man who
pleases you In either comedy or trag
edy, tho man who makes you laugh
or beguiles you of your tears, must
be a man ot education, reflnemonts,
a thinker and close student of human
nature. Tho writer had tho pleasure
of an hour's chat with Mr. Tracy, and
found him to bo a very Interesting
gentleman, one who would be first
and foremost at any literary gather
Ing. Ho has a home in tho east, wife
and little boy, and Is much Interest
ed in horticulture, with which bo
busies himself on his little farm dur
ing his months of vacation, but Mr
Tracy Is Imbued with the spirit of the
west. He says our hills, valleys and
snow-capped mountains and rivers
that run like crystal to the sea, have
gono Into his blood, and will draw
him to tho west. Ho says that Med
ford is the best town ot its size that
ho has ever seen In his travels.
Tomorrow night we will see Miss
Melville as Sis Hopkins. She Is an
Indiana girl and has long slnco made
her reputation. Selah!

WASHINGTON, Jan. 27. Aside
'from discussion of the Auiorloar hu

moutsr of Pr. It. W. Wiley, chief of
tho bureau of chemistry of tho de
partment of agriculture, that sinister
Influence had accomplished tho ro
j ponl 6t the provision law relating to
enforcing efficiency In tho cold ator-
ngo ot food products.
j Dr. Wiley said tho elimination of
'the appropriation for this work hud
greatly hampered his department In
protecting tho public from delete
rlous food products.
In reply to questions, Dr, Wlloy
stated ho was suro tho cold-storage
peoplo themselves had had nothing to
do with it. nnd, ot course, tho con
sumer was Innocent. The appropria
tion wns omitted 'Inst year.
"What Is tho most certain mothod
ot assuring onosolt that an egg Is
absolutely fresh?" asked Represen
tative Pearro.
"Watch tho hen." replied Dr. Wl
loy. "I want to know when nn ogg
seems to bo fresh and starts verging
on tho passe," explnlned Mr. Penrre.
"11 answer It," replied Dr. Wi
ley, "It you will tell mo when a pig
ceases to be a pig and begins to be
come a hog."
Seriously, Dr. Wlloy said cold stor
age could not bo blamed tor nil bad
oggs. He added that they should not
bo kept In cold storage as long nB a
year. Nino months should bo the
longest period, he thought.
TO MAKE IT LAWFUL
TO WRITE ON PACKAGE
WASHINGTON. Jan. 27. All tho
Christmas voto would bo cast, it tho
opportunity wero presented, In favor
ot a bill Just Introduced by Senator
Knuto Nolson ot Minnesota to correct
an ovll that was the sourco of much
complaint last month. ,
It has to do with tho "not-to-bo-oponed-untll-Chrlstmas"
packages.
Congress tried to pass a law provid
ing that those words might bo In
scribed on a packngo without raising
tho cost for postage
Nelson's hill provides In lnngungo
that cannot bo subject to misconstruc
tion that peoplo mny write the "don't
open" notice on a packngo without
changing tho rate of postage.

their frivolous handling of momen
tous events, hasn't been receiving
very much attention ,in tho public

Perkins of California, now that the
latest example of their irreverence
hns been lmnmht to his attention.
A few weeks ago the California

known young couple, Alfred Moss, 17
venrs old, son of Alvin Moss, nnd
Zelln Lowis, aged '20. who quietly

and una arranged to hnvo young

sho could got tho southern stage to
Altnrns. Sho said sho would remain
in Lnkeview for n whilo, visiting
friends before lenving for Portlnnd.
Nothing further has been hoard of
