and Is a possibility for the position. Coach
Andrews lias established semi-secret prac
tice Two strangers were quickly told to
leave the field one day last week. A
vlall&nce committee of students has
been formed to protect the team against
any spies. Hard luck hit the squad last
week when Campbell, guard on last year s
team, was compelled to quit tha game for
good thla season. Hla knee cap was frac
tured in tha scrimmage.
ALUMNI
SIFFEHS
SEVERELY
Game at lows City Proves Serious an4
Mar Aot Be Repeated.
IOWA CITY, la., Oct. 6. (Special.) No
more alumni games will probably be played
on Iowa field. At the banquet tendered the
alumni at the Burkley Imperial Saturday
night Prof. A. O. Smith sounded the senti
ment of the old gold athletic followers
when he questioned the benefit of the game
witn tne tormer stars of the gridiron who
come back every year to play foot ball
against the varsity.
According to rror. smith a statement, the
game was likely to injure the old-time play
ers wno naa been out or training for two
to eight yeara, and that the interest die
played was not sufficient to warrant tha
risks the the loyal former players ran.
To take the place of the alumni game It
was suggested that an annual day be set
aside for the "grada, ' thla day to be the
date of the big game of the season In low
City. On that evening the annual aJumnl
banquet would be given and the general
reunion occur.
No definite action was taken, but many
of the athletic board informally predicted
Its abollshmeht. This year only a few of
the graduates were able to return, and if
the coaches had not played, the contest
would have- been too one-aided to have
given tho regulars much practice. Ed son,
the little half on the 1900 team, played a
fine game, as, did Atkinson and others.
Great credit was given the former players
wno appeared.
Coach Mark Catlin came through the
game with a broken nose. Examination by
a physician yesterday showed that there
was a fracture. The injury was received
by contact with Halfback Collins' knee.
Skin was taken off both forehead and chin
In the same play, so the head coach will be
badly disfigured for a few days. Assistant
Coach Griffith could scarecly lift his left
arm because of an injured shoulder yester
day.
To run up' a' higher score on Coo than
Ames did last Saturday is the ambition of
the Iowa squad. While many of the fol
lowers of the game here know perfectly
well that Williams is against high soores
and that Ames never shoots up the totals
in an easy game, they wish the Hawkeyes
to exceed the 84 mark If possible.
Hard practice Is the rule this week. The
varsity was alow In the alumni game and
the coaches wHI endeavor to Instill speed
this week.
Cl'DAHYS
CLASS
CHAMPIONS
Play Last Game, Claiming Largest
Bi amber of Games Won.
The Cudahys claim the championship of
"C" class, having defeated the fast teams
three games out of five, one of these being
a tie. They won Sunday, which was the
last game, and have disbanded for the sea
son. All the men who play with them are
from Sheeley and It's the same old story
bheeley alwaya on top. The game Sunday
was the hardest game they played this
season. All the men played good ball, but
Woodruff on second was the real star, wM h
Parker closely following him. Murphy
caught a good game and Hollander, the
premier pitcher of the team, pitched grand
ball. Of the outfielders, Hopkins made five
great catches, saving the game In the littn
Inning. A grand reception will be held
aome night next week at J. Long's, who
managed and captained the team all aeason
Election of officers for next year will be
held and a foot ball team organized. Score:

IOWA ELEVEN SHOWS UP SLOW
Strenuous Week's Practice Will Bo
tha 1-iesnlt.
IOWA CITY. la.. Oct. 6. (Special.) Slow
Wjrk in Saturday's game caused tne coacia
to preulct sireiiuou prucuce the next tew
days to quicken the speed ot the varsity
squad. Iowa played poor ball in the alumni
game tyitll near the end. Finally Carburry,
wno went io .quarter in me aecuuu nan,
aucceeded in injecting a little ginger, and
the plays went off with mure snap and pre
cision. The hot weather helped the tendency of
the varsity to lose "pepp." But this week
it will be different. The coaches plan to
keep the players in their suits until satis
factory results are in order. There will be
no loafing on Iowa field. More speed Is the
one aim of the coaches. Uruggeman could
not get the speed out of the players and It
la probable Carberry,' with his sharp, de
cisive manner of calling signals and hla
ability aa a hard worker, will hold down
the quarterback position.
The fact that Kirk booted the ball be
tween the posts pleased Coach Catlin, who
had made a upeclulty the last week of drill
ing the men in defending Kirk In hla drop
kicking. Great dependence ia being made
on Klik and his drop kicking to Increase
lowa s scores this year.
However, lowa will not have a one-man
team, aa the forward passing has been so'
distributed that almost any player on the
team can toss the pigskin forward with
accuracy. The ends even are used In start
ing the ball as well aa receiving. Carberry
la being drilled In forward passing and
"Benny" Collins, the halfback, can shoot
the ball on a line and fairly accurately.
Carberry has developed Into a good goal
kicker from touchdowns and will do tha
place kicking in case Kirk Is laid out In
the big gamea.
It ia probable that Coach Catlin will start
the ghoat ball and blackboard work the
last of this week in preparation for th
Missouri game, October 17.

Annie Warner performed a real service
for mankind when sire gar thla world ot
sorrow and sordid Interest Aunt Mary Wat
klns, tha Rejuvenated. Aunt Mary, unre
Juvenated, Is able to provide the average
audience the promised laugh a line for on
act, but the process by which th old lady,
big at heart, but soured by disappointment
In love, has the acrimony renovated out of
her soul by a group of college boys, a buoy
ant, resourceful girl and a series of un
promising but really fruitful circumstances,
furnishes refreshing fun enough to make a
weary, toll-worn soul look up and rejoice
In the mere fact of existence. Character
interpretations are apt to be overdone, but
In th hands of May Robson, Aunt Mary
Watklns becomes one of those vlnegared
old maids we have all known at some time
In our lives. That the character secured a
firm grip on the audience at the Boyd last
night waa clear from the Involuntary re
sponsiveness It showed from the time the
curtain rose until the new Aunt Mary
stepped out Just before the curtain dropped
on the last act and announced her belief
In the innate goodness of mankind.
There Is not much to the story told by
the play, it Is merely the medium through
which we are shown the one dominating
character. The follies of Aunt Mary's be
loved nephew furnish the basis of most of
tho scenes. A threatened breach ot prom
ise suit la the final straw, and at the close
of the first act Miss Watklns disinherits
Jack Denham and he returns to the city
to live temporarily with his friends. In the
second act a letter intended to bring only
a check results In bringing Aunt Mary to
tho city for her first visit in twenty-five
years. Jack's college friends and hla sweet
heart contrive to show aunty the time of
her life and before her three weeks' visit Is
ended she Is completely and satisfactorily
rejuvenated. "When I die I want to be
burled from a roof garden," Is the request
she makes of her astounded country
friends.
Jack clears himself of all but a few inno
cent follies and In the new light she has
received Aunt Mary overlooks these and
the usual bappy ending comes at last
Many pages might bo Written of the way
In which May Robson accomplishes ever
little detail In the unfolding of the char
acter of Aunt Mary. In fact, It would be
a long story, for she does not depend on
one or even a few elements of interpreta
tion. The eyes which snap In the first act
twinkle in the laat, and the transition la
so natural-and smooth there Is no shock.
When the softening Influence, of the mem
ory of her old love almost melts tho hard
casing that has bound her soul for years
and she has to counteract the effect by a
sudden burst of temper to maintain control
of herself, the versatility of Miss Robson's
art Is best Illustrated. In all the amusing
and absurd Incidents In "which the play
abounds she la compelllngly true to life.
An Important -part In the cast falls to the
lot of Mr. Jack Storey, who has the role
of Jack Denham, the nephew, whose little
lapses from the narrow path leads up to
the principal sltuatlpns In the play. Mr.
Storey Is well fitted by natur for the part
of a young college man and he carries II
through with a fidelity born of sympathy
and a thorough understanding of the role
he assumes. Mr. Storey's work was of
untold value in setting the atmosphere
to the various scenes. His college man
Is on of the kind one meets and loves In
spite of his youthful follies.
The minoT characters, are almost all In the
hands .of real - artists. Messers Boulter,
Decker and Herblin, who take the part of
Jack's college friends, give a remarkably,
tru and refreshing Interpretation of that
Interesting class of young men. Miss Blow
as Betty Burnett, Jack's sweetheart, has
every qualification of the part and hadles it
with skill. Miss Nina Saville as Luclnda,
Aunt Mary's old house servant, has a com
edy part from which she extracts all the
essence with unusual cleverness.
Walter Boulter, who was with the Wood
ward Stock company at the Boyd during
the summer, joined the company in Omaha
and took the part of Clover, Jack's chum,
playing It with much credit to himself and
the company. Ih was recognised by his
old admirers and given evidence of their
recognition on aeveral occasions.
Tha engagement will conclude with
Wednesday evening's performance, with a
matinee Wednesday. '

Preconceived notions of "The Devil" were
more or less shattered at th Btlrwood Sun
day night, and at least one who went to
scoff remained to p'ray. Not that "The
Devil" Incites one lo prayer, exactly, but
the simile may be permitted. It Is Intended
to convey tha-ldea that 'on went there with
a fairly sotjletj conviction' that tha author
had treated In a rather broad, and even
crass manner, a teftnln phase of the eternal
triangle, and that the discussion was boot
less and perhaps should not be permitted.
The latter Impression, remains; It is a mat- -ter
that (flight nut to be discussed In pub
lic; but. If it must.be. then snm measure
of thanks Is du to Ferenc Molnar for the
devilishly skillful mannr In which ho has
treated ot the topic He Is oold blooded,
cynical. -almost .brutal In , his methods, and
yet, given the -postulate. Its demonstration
is logical, and' Its culmination Inevitable.
No fault may be found with' his reasoning;
"'tis true, 'tis pltyt and pity 'tis 'tis true."
Men and women- are only men and women
after all. and as the Devil says,. "Thero
you are." In thja fin Irony the drama, for
it la really a drama, 'treats of the passion
of a man and a;, woman, .whose blood o'er
leaps restraint and whose love asserts itself,
despite laws and conventions- to the con.
trary. It offers no. defense, It makes no)
apology; It merely' sets down, some facts,
cold and Irrefragable.-' And In Its every
Una It strikes at human fralTty, seeming to
echo the cry of Teinysont .. -
Cursed be the social ilea that warp us from
tho living trutii. ,
But this brilliance of conception and di
rectness of treatment In nowise Justifies
It. It Is for the worldly-wise, nnd therefor
not for the theater. But this -warning is
not at all likely to be. hoeded, and Omaha
will probably pay Its tribute to "The Devil,'

Mr. Ingraham s in hi perihelion this

may attack by Indirection, but his point
Is always In view, and his course leads di

part the resource of a fin mind and aa
experience that enables him to very accur

embodies, and his performance I excellent
in all essential regards) He flatters, snubs,
cajoles, Insults, tempts, ' tantalises and

so urbane, that he seems to be what he
purports, merely a man of the world with
a most kindly Interest. In hi fellowman

away from the straight line of what Is
generally accepted as moral rectitude. HI -mobile

facility to the exactions of the role, and
his noteless, mirthless laugh, his eardonlo
grin, and hla exasperating sneer, with his
suggestive speech and perfect accent, are
parts of a whole that la really delightful
from the merely artistic point of view. It
Is highly creditable in all regards, and Mr.
Ingraham well deserves the hit he has
made.
Miss Elliott Is given one of the most-difficult
roles a woman can possibly be called
upon to enact In public; ' It Is thoroughly
antagonistic, and at no point doe It elicit
the sympathy of the audience. For this
reason the applause. she compels Is all the
greater tribute to her ability as an actress.
It Is no mean undertaking to portray th
slow but certain disintegration of a wom
an's moral nature, untl) It finally crumbles
In ruins, and everything elsa In In world
Is thrown sway for the promise of hap
piness. But this she, accomplishes, and
with a delicate .adjustment of dramatio
values that preserves the verities at all
times Without destroying the effect or mar
ring the progress of the drama's course.
"The road to hell is easy," btt no woman
ever sets her feet on It without some mls
glvlngs, and even at the very end of the
play, when the. catastrophe Impends, Miss
Elliott shows the reluctance, the uncertain
resistance of tha wife who . seeks . relief
from a loveless marriage In a liaison with
the man to whom' she; had given her heart
years before. Such details of the action
as the removal of her waist In the artist's
studio, the appearsnce In' an opera cloak
that seems to support the Devil's tal that
she Is walking through her ball room In tha
costume of Lady Godlva. even her flna!
yielding are managed with such tact as to
rob them of all Inflolfeacy, an dto mak
them what they are, 'no evldene of lack
of modesty, but really signs of complete
surrender of th woman to the man she
loves. Incidentally. Miss Elliott,! hi wear
ing some wonderfully pretty gowns this
week, fitting her . appearance to th part
sh plays, .,,
Mr. Grew has much to do In his role, and '
does It well. T Is a man of th world, and
yet willing to he bound by the conventional
Ideas of responsibility. It Is against him
that the Devil direct hla attack, and th
victory Is made complete. Mr. Tqdd and
Mr. Bacon are In the. cast for . essential
roles. . , .
