The largest audience of the season
greeted Miss Maggie Moore and j. q.
Williamson at this place Of amusement,
last night. To say that the play fully
met the expectations OF tie lsrge crowd
present, does not halt express it. At
times rear OF laughter peryated the en-.
tire building, and again the audi
ence was sLhused IN tears. Too
much cannot be ssid IN praise
of Miss Moore as "Lizzle Stoiel,"
who was encored to the echo on frequent
OCCASIONS, especially in her singing OF
those simple and pretty songs, Don't
Make Me Laugh and pretty WiIhel-
nina" Her vocslism is pure and sweet
and her acting superb, Mr.. J. Z. VIII

st. Petersburg, Jan. 4.-The semi-oficisl
Russian Agence says: "The reply to the
Britiah inquiry on behalf of the Porte
stated that the decisions and acts Of the i'm
perial policy are still guided by the two
paramount considerations Of putting an end
to the constantly recurring dis urbances, and
avoiding complications BY respecting the
interests of third parties. Assurances sa,is-
factory to the BRUSH government and peo-
pie we're given concerning England's int, r
cts Immediately after they were made
known. These interests are no more mem
aced now than then, although Russia then
reserved the conting, ncy Of being compelled
BY military necessities to obtain peace under
the wallis Of Constantinople. 1t depends
upon England to avert this c%ontingenc, by
divesting The Porte Of a,y illusion reapect-
ing English support. 1t is evident that if
the Porte has ground to hope that the entry
ot the Russians Into Constantinople would
cause England TO intervene, it would do
everything to bring about that contingency
by refus ng any conditions of peace"
ST. Petersburg, Jan. 4.-The Journal de
81. Petersburg says: "Ru.sia could not, in
the interests of peace itself, do otherwise
than refuse all Intervention and make it
clearly Understood t : at peace must be DIS
cussed between the belligerents.' The Jour
nal out that any injury by Rus ia to the
Suez canal is quite out Of the question, and
II peace negotiations were opened now Rus
sian occupation Of Constantinople would be
equally out Of the question. If there are
my other points upon which British inter-
ests might be aaec ed they must be Of minor
i'm p%ortance, and a frank and loyal explana-
ton betwe; n the Russian and English gov
ernments would lead to an understanding on
the subject without interrupting the nego.

Hydrophobia Successfully Treated.

A correspondent who was in India
some years back, when hydrophobia was
very prevalent in that country, sends
us the following cases which were sue
cessfully treated there by resident Eng
lish medical men. One was that of q
boy who was placed under the care OF
Doctor Wylie at Ahmednuggur. The
patient was seated on cane-bot-
toned chair, naked q pan of live char
coal was put underneath the chair, and
all were enveloped in blankets, leaving
the boys head free. Mercury was now
thrown over the charcoal. In quarter
of an hour saliva poured from his mouth
and rigidity ceased. He lived, and 80
did many other patients treated in the
same manner. The second case was
under the care of Mr.. Barnes, medical
officer of the charitable dispensary,
Hooshipore. The putient was suffering
from violent and frequent attacks. he
was tied on a cane-bottomed chair and
surrounded with blankets, leaving the
head free; q vessel OF boiling water was
placed under him, and a mixture OF
equal parts of mercury and sulphur we'll
rubbed together was placed in broken
piece of earthen ware over q charcoal
fire, and put alongside the vessel of boil:
ing water; fifteen grains of calomel
were given at once, and five grains re-
peated every hour, the mercurial vapol
bath being kept up till all the symptoms
had subsided. In about four hours the
man was perfectly calm. The after
treatment was tonics, nourishing food,
and gargles to remove salvation. He
WAS dischsrged cured

Osman after Pleyna.

A CORRESPONDENT at Plevna telegraphed
concerning Osman Pasha's reception by
the Russians The Grand Duke Nicho-
las rode up to Osman's carriage, and
for some seconds the two chiefs gazed
into each others faces without the ut
terance of q word. Then the grand
duke stretched out his hand, shook the
hand of Osman Pasha heartily, and
said "I compliment you on your de-
tense of Plevna. It ia one of the most
splendid military feats in history" "
Osman smiled sadly; rose painfully to
his feet in spite of his wound, and said
something which could not hear. He
then reseated himself. The Russian
officers all cried "Bravo! bravo y re-
peatedly, and sill saluted respectfully.
There was not one among them who did
not gaze on the hero of Plevna with the
gravest admiration and sympathy.
Prince Charles, of Roumania, who
had arrived, rode up and repeated un-
willingly almost every word of the grand
duke. and shook hands with Osman,
who again rose and bowed this time in
grim silence. He wore a loose blue
cloak, with no apparent mark on it to
designate his rank, and a red fez. He
is a large, strongly-built man. The
lower part of his face is covered with a
short, black beard without streak of
gray, and he has large Roman nose
and black eyes. -.
eft is a grand face" exclaimed Col.
Gaillard, the French military attache.
81 was almost afraid of seeing him lest
my expectation should be disappointed,
but he more than fulfills my ideal. 1t
is the face of great military chieftain. "
Said young Skobeleff: 81 am glad to
have seen him. Osman Ghazi he is,
and Osman the victorious he will re-
main, III spite OF his surrender"

She Got More Than She Wanted.

One of the most interesting decisions
in the records of criminal practice was
rendered in the supreme court at Colum-
bus, Ohio, o few days ago. Sarah M.
Victor, convicted of poisoning her
brother, Joseph Parquet, in order to OBJ"
tain 50, 600 life insurance, was originally
sentenced to be hanged, but as there
were symptoms of insanity the governor
committed her punishment to imprison'
ment for life. While she was IN the
penitentiary her reason was restored,
and she refused TO assent to the commu.
tation OF the sentence. Having obtained
writ of habeas corpus, she asked the
court to release her; but the bench
ruled that although she was detained in
ibe penitentiary without warrant Of law,
inasmuch as she had not consented to
the communication Of sentence she was not
entitled to liberty, but WAS an escaped
prisoner, after conviction, and must
therefore be delivered to the sheriff and
the original sentence be carried out. In
a word, the prisoner, who was trying to
crawl out of the courts through the knot
hole Of technicality, was ordered to be
hanged. This WAS more than she and
her lawyer had bargained for. AS soon
as she was taken to the county jail, she
opened proceedings in error and applied
for reversal Of the Judgment and order
which she had herself procured. The
supreme court now rules that the COM
mon pleas was wrong in affirming that q
prisoner must consent to Communication
of sentence, and decides that Mrs. Vic
tor must be sent back to the penitentiary
for life.

A Duelist's Deathbed.

Not long ago there died at the Hotel
Dieu. Parts, Cadoudal, an odd and
ouarrelsome character, whose anxiety
to fight with anybody on any prete1t or
none was not more absurdly excessive
than that described in "Romeo and
Juliet" The reams of paper he con-
sumed in writing challenges, the thou.
sands upon thousands of friends he sent
to thousands of opponents, who would
be bold enough to compete? AS the
old man lay dying in the hospital a
priest was sent for to afford him the last
consolation of religion. The worthy
father did not spare to tell him frankly
in what condition he was, how obnoxious
to Heaven was the desperate life he had
led, and the necessity for his prompt
and thorough repentance. When the
good priest had left him Cadoudal beck
oned feebly to friend who was watch,
ing by his bedside, and whispered
hoarsely:
"Take down that priests address;
BE has used language to me that wont
take from any man living. -H-l-geet
-over-this -I-will- couple
-of-friends - to him - with a
chal D.
And before he could finish the SEN
tance the veteran duelist was dead.

The German Army.

An interesting account OF the German
army has recently been published by
French officer, who was for many years
military attache at the court OF Berlin.
The total number of trained soldiers
Germany could dispose OF in time of
war, including the troops of the lauds-
turn, is estimated by the writer at from
10000 to 3, 300, 900 men, of whom L.
800, 600 belong to the regular army and
landwehr. Owing to improvements
which have been made in the details of
the mobilization scheme since the war
of 1901, the writer calculates that in
three weeks the whole of the regular
army could be concentrated on the
French frontier. while in another three
weeks the four battalions and six divi-
sions of landwehr troops could be
brought up into line, the total strength
of the invading army being thus raised
to about 900, 900 men. The mobilization
of the second levy of troops could not
be begun until the tenth week but by
the end of the thirteenth week $50, 900
more men could be added to the field
force, raising the strength of this latter
to l. $50, 900 leaving still 900, 900 recruits
at the depots. The author finally calls
attention to the care which has been
taken to provide the cavalry OF the Ger
nan srrny with q sar-icebls arssr.ni

Words of Wisdom.

There is q department which suits the
figure and talents of each person. 1t is
always lost when we quit it to assume
that Of another.
he who has not known adversely is
but half acquainted with others or him
self. Constant success shows us but
one side of the world.
We all dread bodily paralysis and
make use of every contrivance to avoid
it, but none of us are troubled about
paralysis OF the soul.
There is q gift that is almost a blow,
and there is a kind word that Is NUM-,
fcence so much is there in the way OF
doing things.
A heart-memory is better that mere
head.memory. It is better to carry
away a little of the life OF God IN our
souls than to be able to repeat every
word of every sermon we have heard.
He that waits for repentance waits for
that which cannot be had as long as it is
waited for. It is absurd FOR man to
wait for that which he himself has to do.
Preserve your conscience always SOFT
and sensitive. If but one sin force itself
into that tender part of the soul and
dwell there, the road is paved for q
thousand iniquities.
We ara so presumptuous that we wish
to be known to all the world, even to
those who come after us, and we are so
vain that the esteem of five or six per-
sons Immediately around us is enough to
amuse and satisfy us.
Do not be discouraged under any
circumstances. 60 steadily forward !;
rather consult your own conscience than
the opinions of men,. though the last are
not to be disregarded. Be Industrious,
be frugal, be honest !; deal in perfect
kindness with all who come In your way,
exercising q neighborly and obiging
spirit in your own intercourse.

Brigham's Amelia.

Brigham Young's favorite wife,
Amelia, has been dethroned since the
prophets death, and report says that she
has gone back to Peoria, ILL.,, with the
intention of remaining. It appears that
Amelia was never Mormon at all that
her connection with Brigham was based
upon contract which included hand
somely furnished home, carriages and
horses, and full liberty to provide such
home comforts as she might desire:
This wife absolutely ruled Brigham, and
was the only wife whose unauthorized
orders on storekeepers were fully
honored. She was very fond OF e1pen-
sive attire, was entirely independent as
to the wishes or desires of the saints,
and led a gay, worldly lite. 1t is also
stated that when she met Brigham she
was already afisnced to young mer'
chant OF Peoria, but surrendered him fol
tks sish Mormon,
