GET MAT)
When Friends Tell the Truth.
Many people become coffee topers be
fore they realize it, and would be angry
if thus described even by a close friend.
It will pay anyone to examine care
fully into whether or not coffee has
gained the mastery over them. A cof
fee toper may suspect that his or her
ails come from coffee drinking but they
will invariably charge the disease to
some other cause, for right down in the
heart they realize that it would be
practically impossible to give up coffee,
so they hope against hope that it does
not hurt them, but it goes on with Its
work just the same and the result is
complete collapse and nervous prostra
tion, lasting sometimes for years, un
less the poison that causes the disease
is discontinued.
There are hundreds rff thousands of
illustrations of the truth of this state
ment. Any person addicted to coffee can
make the change from common coffee
to Posturn Food Coffee without trouble
provided the Postum is properly pre
pared so as to bring out the color, flavor
and food value. It has a rich black
brown color and changes to the golden
brown when good cream Is ndded.
The change will work wonders In any
one whose nervous system or stomach
has been unbalanced or disturbed by
coffee.

way Rouss, the blind millionaire mer
chant, died at 6:30 this morning of con
gestion of the lungs at hie handsome
brownstone house, No. 632 Fifth avenue,
at the age of eixty-slx.
As a merchant prince and philan
thropist Mr.;Rouss enjoyed a fame that
was international. In many respects
he was one of the most picturesque
figures in New York's business world.
Beginning life a poor boy, at the out
break of the civil war, he had amaseed
a large fortune for that time, and this
he promptly sacrificed to the Confed
erate cause, devoting all his means to
the service and enlisting.
He served throughout the struggle
and was with Lee at the surrender of
Appomattox. - A few years later he
came to New York, and from ama.ll
proportions developed the great busi
ness whjch he personally managed un
til his death. His many charities are
well known.
Several years aso Mr. Rouss was
stricken with blindness. Since then
his struggle to recover his eyesight
has been the most pathetic Incident in
his career. He made a standing offer
of $1,000,000 to any person who would
restore his sight.
He found a man, John F. Martin,
who was stricken with a similar paraly
sis of the optic nerve from which he
suffered. He emnloyed this man as a
substitute. From that time Martin was
the subject for all the experiments of
the many who sought to obtain the
fortune by restoring the merchant's
sight.
Mr. Rouss was born in Woodbury,
Md., in 1836.

Interesting Talk by Dr. James Cook of
Yale.
An illustrated lecture on "The Peas
ants of the Balkan' Peninsular" was
given at St. Paul's parish house by
James Locke, Th. D., of Yale university
Inst evening. The lecture was tinder
the auspices of the Young Men's society
of the church. A vpry large audience
attended. The slides were descriptive
of the physique, dress, modes of living,
m.irner of habitations and the Indus
trial pursuits of the Slavonic people.
Especially Interesting were the quaint
dwellings portrayed and the queer
ovens pictured. The ovens are huge
affairs and are used In common by sev
eral families. The houses are of wick
er work formation, the interstices be
ing filled in with plaster. The log
cabin, so familiar In the south and west
of our own country, Is to be observed
there In all its massive glory. The pe
culiar costumes of the people were
finely Illustrated, both by the stereoptl
con, and also by a living picture, for
Mr. Locke bad purchased a costume
from one of the peasants. It was brand
new and fresh from the spinning wheel.
This costume was worn last evening by
Mrs. W. E. Taesche. At the 'lecturer's
request Mrs. Haesche ascended the
platform, the brilliant rays of the Inn-
tern were thrown on her figure while
Mr. Locke pointed out the details of
weave and ornamentation. This part
of the lecture was diverting and seemed
to Interest, the ladles Immensely. Tt
was a bewitching garment. One of the
screens represented a herd of cattle and
Mr. Locke said that Just as soon as he
had napped the button a bull started
for him. He hastily skipped over the
fence. The vehicles used in transpor
tation presented mediaeval patterns,
but nevertheless It was to be observed
that the American threshing machine
and steam plow were in evidence. The
national dance was pictured and de
rciibed Mrs. Haesche singing the songs
which are rendered on the occasions of
Slavonic festivities. Manv other folk
songs were sung by her. She was ac
companied on the p'ano by Mr. Wood-stork.

esting presentation of the subject and

The scenic, electrical and mechanical
effects shown throughout the perform
ance are positively elaborate. The great
revolving scene showing the interior
and exterior of the world-famous New
York Tombs has caused a sensation
wherever the play has been presented.
Aside from the serious veins of tlie play
there is sufficient comedy thrown into
the plot to hold the attention of the au
dience from the rise to the fall of the
curtain. Miss Louise Beaton, a well
known California actress, will be seen
in a comedy role In which she holds her
hearers in a continual state of laughter,
The balance of the cast Is well selected

THE LIBERTY BELLES.
Performance, orchestra and audience
were up to date in every respect at the
Hyperion last evening when "The Lib
erty Belles," by Klaw & Erlanger's
Troubadours, was presented. No mu
sical comedy has taken better here this
season and none has had a better or
more appreciative audience. From
start to finish the entertainment was a
delight, pretty artistic and clever and
the audience showed their appreciation
by repeated calls for more. Pretty
girls, graceful dancers, beautiful scenes
and artistic mechanical effects com
bined an entertainment not often sur
passed In merit and all who attended
were delighted from start to finish.
The second act scene of "The Now

Vanderbllts summer home. The act
set was built and decorated to repre

the press agent was cautioned in ,ad
vance not to exploit this feature of the
scenic dress of the production, but rath
er to leave It to be discovered by reason
of its similarity, which Mr. Lederer felt
would be done if any similarity existed
This scene and all the original produc

presented during the engagement of
The New Yorkers" at the Hyperion

One of the greatest and most poptio
of pianists is to visit New Haven, and
thus a rare opportunity Is presented to
the music lovers of this- city, who enjoy
what is best, truest and most artistic
pianoforte playing, to hear a pro
gramme or masterpieces of various
schools of composition. Mr. Slivinskl is
profoundly intellectual in such as Bach,
Beethoven or Brahms, and In Chopin
there is the quintessence of romance,
sentiment and beauty of conception, a
musical flower garden as It were. A
musical feast Is certainly In store for
New Haveners on the evening of March

Poll's WoiMlerlnttfl TIm-m 1't
Nothing at this theater has satisfied
public desire more than the pictures
shown by the American vitagraph last
night at Poll's. Manager Poll has ar
ranged a great bill of variety, as was
expected, and all of it Is to be com
mended, but the Prince Henry pictures
are such a realistic treat that to review
the show properly they ought to receive
more than a passing mention.
The wonderful machine was stationed
perfectly for every picture taken.
Prince Henry Is taken at a distance of
only a few feet, as he enters his car
riage, facing the audience before he
rides away.
The launching scene at Shooter's Is
land, however, is the big triumph. Pres
ident Roosevelt, Prince Henry and his
suite, Mrs. Roosevelt and Miss Alice
Roosevelt are all easily recognized In
the throng, and every detail of that In
teresting christening Is perfectly shown
the breaking of the bottle, the cutting
of the tie line and then the graceful
glide down the ways and the first dip
into the water. ...
The variety is excellent and includes
Fred Hallen and Mollie Fuller in their
new sketch, "The Sleep Walkers;"
Hacker and Lester, the bicycle experts
Avery and Hartrthew-twr- lively
"coons," and a remarkably pretty and
Interesting novelty, Mile. Chester and

sides these there are many other capa
ble ppeclalties.

The patrons of the Grand Opera
House have a pleasant surprise in store
for themselves when "The Road to
Ruin," a famous New York scenic pro
duction, which begins1 a three days' en
gagement commencing next Thursday,
will be seen. The piece will be present
ed in its entirety, receiving the same
careful staging that marked Its success
in New York city on its recent appear
ance there. It abounds with life and
incidents in Gotham. It serves to in
troduce the ways and doings of the fa

is a plot of the play. The cast selected

Money for Troops in China Voted After
Explanation by Chancellor.
Berlin, March 3. In the course of the
budgot. discussion in the Reichstag to
day the imperial chancellor, Count von
Buelow, in reply to questions raised by
the vote asked for money to maintain
the German troops in China, said that
Germany had only economic and not
territorial Interests in China and Corea,-
and would not interfere in the quarrels
of others. So far as Germany knew,
the only effect of the Anglo-Japanese
convention was to maintain the status
quo. Therefore, it did not prejudice
Oprman interests, and did not affect
the Anglo-German Yang-Tse valley
agreement. Germany only desired the
open door.
The telegram from Pekin, published
In London, declaring that Germany
sought sppcinl concessions in China, he
said, was a canard. Germany secured
railroad and mining concessions In
Shantung province in 1S99, and she had
no wish to acquire more than she could
digest. Germany was not consulted
before the conclusion of the Anglo-Jap-anose
convention. The German govern
ment had been notified of the birth
thpreof, but it was not its godfather
nor Its father. The garrisons in China
would be reduced as soon as the politi
cal situation allowed this to be done,
but the premature recall of the troops
would put Germany in an unfavorable
position, as she had no base near Chi
na, like the other powers. The vote
was adopted.
