and coming unlit-raided by tha "trumpet

herself in certain quarters of the east as
an act reus of ability, but to up she is un
known. And, apparently, not many were
curious to break through and become ac
quainted with her. Those who did go to
the Boyd,- though, were treated to a play
that la Interesting and In many ways
worthy.
The drama purports to tell a love story

cuse the head of the tribe of Vernon found
he had a daughter of very much the same

the son of her father's dearest enemy, and
would have none other. The course of true
love went over even more than the custom
ary number of bumps, one of which was
raised on the hero's head by the Irate

emerged to later bear off the bride.
Mlsa Gallatin n Strops; Actress, .
Miss Gallatin shows considerable versatil
ity and much Is asked of her in the Inter
pretation of the role. It U a whimsical
conceit, easy enough In a novel, but rather
difficult to realize in life. Mistress Dorothy
Is a wilful, perverse and headstrong youii3
woman, who runs the gamut of the emotions
much as does her modern sister the scales
on a piano. This keeps Miss Gallatin busy
changing moods and expressions, but she
lias a mobile countenunce and a flexible
voice of certain muslcul qualities and these
she makes Judiciously effective line of. H-r
playful scenes are very well done, and her
stronger passages aiu carried off Willi
precision.
The supporting comouny Is strong. Mr.
Pennington is a most handsome man, tail
und well favored, with u sweet voice that
tells its tale of love must melodiously.
Frank Smith is determined tnpugil as the
stern and cruel p-irent to satisfy unjbodj,
while the others tit their roles very well.
It is beautifully staged and dese.ves tur
more liberal putronag; than was acordcu
it. It wonld hardly be truthful to say thu.
Miss Gallatin's reception was etithu Jiastiu.

GIRL SCORNS HER PARENTS
Victim of Martin's Infloenre nefusea
to Lire with Father
and Mother.
"Yes, our daughter was brought home
from Kansas City late Thursday morning
by her father, but we are all simply heart
broken over the reception she gave us, as
she said she -would never live with us
again. She stayed In the house Just two
hours and then went to the home of her
sister, Mrs. Conrad, at Council Bluffs,"
said Mrs. M. J. Livingston, the mother of
Dlca Livingston, who run away ten days
ago with Uilly Martin., a former waiter of
the Eagle restaurant and was found In i
resort in Kstisas City.
The girl is only 17 years of age and wa;
enticed away from home by Martin on
the night of . January 16. when the coupU
left, ostensibly for the theater. Martin
took her to a notoiloua' house In Kansat
City and Induced he.r to acts of crime, such
as petty thieving and pocket .picking, in
order that he might live a life of ease.
The two were arrested by the police of
Kansas City and Martin. was fined $500 and
costst In default of which he will spend
approximately one. year at hard labor in
the Kansas City workhouse. The father of
the girl wei.t to Kansas City Tuesday.
"The police Judge, after fining Martin,
asked Dlca If she would go home with her
father and promise to behave herself," said
Mrs. Livingston. "She refused to answer
the Judge and he said if she wouldn't he'd
have to send her to Jail. too. Then rJlca
said, 'I'd Just as soon go. with Martin to
jail us to go horn?, but I'll go.'
"She came home with her father, but
hardly spoke to him during, the trip. When
she saw me she appeared so angry and
sullen, and the way she actually acted
Just broke our hearts. She said she wouldn't
live at home, and so her sister, who was
here, took her to Council Bluffs, but I
don't know how long she will be contented
to stay there. Her father and I are both
afraid we will simply have to aend her to
the Geneva Reform school for girls.".
The girl is exceedingly pretty and never
exhibited any wayward tendencies until she
got acquainted with Martin a few months
ago,' her folks declare. The parents are
exceedingly bitter toward Martin.'
Mrs. Livingston was asked If any com
plaint would .tie fled In . Omsba against
the man a"nd sajd;
"No, I think not, as I guess lie will be
pretty sore after he serves s year In the
workhouse. All we are going to do now
la to try to win Dlca back to u's and make
a go.od woman of tier, but It looks now
I ke a hard task."
