THE MOuNrERANK.


Thursday night a really great
dramatic company will appear at the
Opera House playing The Mounte-
back, a drama that has been a success
both in England and America. The
agent only arrived in the city as we
were going to press, hence only a
bare mention OF the company can be
made now. 1t includes: Mr. Eben
Plympton, late leading man on his
English and German tours for Mr..
Edwin Booth, as also for Mr.. Booth
during the past three years. He also
played opposite parts to the lamented
Adelaide Nelson, playing Romeo,
Orlando and like parts.
Mr.. Ogden Stevens, (or five years
leading man for Madam Janauschek);
James L. Carhart, (of Wallack's The
atre, New York;; Carl Ahrendt, (late
of Barrett, Mccullough and Keene's
companies); Miss Bijou Heron, (of
Days and the Madison Square COM
panies) and daughter of the late
Matilda Heron, the greatest Ameri-
can actress that ever lived. Mrs. Far
rem, the best old-lady actress in Amer
lea, and for ten years a member OF
Wallack's New Yory company. Be-
sides these the company contains a
dozen other good people.
The play is one in which Sonnen-
thai, the great German actor has made
his greatest successes, and which
Henry Irving annually presents at
the Lyceum theatre IN London. Mr..
Plympton in the leading role has
been a success in New York, Boston,
and other cities, and our people
should show their appreciation of such
magnificent company by crowding
the Opera House next Thursday.
Seats will be on sale Tuesday morn
ing.
PATTI ROSA.
Decidedly the best attraction at FL
der's Opera House this season Was the
charming little soubrette whose name
constitutes the caption. She was COM
plimented with full house, and we
are sure that every person in the audi
ence with a spark of appreciation en-
joyed the performance. Patti Rosa is
plump, petit and pretty. She moves
with the ease and grace of a gazelle
and sings like nightingale. If we
could bring ourselves to a cold criti-
cism OF anything SO completely charm
ing, we might say that Mile Rosa Is
most too affected to be good actress,
but this is the only intlmation- OF a
lack of perfection that we are going to
make Among the support, the jolly
young gentleman who played the part
of Jack, the Philosopher" and the
young lady who gave 50 creditable a
rendition of the hysterical old maid
are both deserving of compliment.
Barlow, Wilson & Rankin's Min
strels entertained a full house Tuesday
night. The performance gave very
general satisfaction. The music was
splendid, and some of the features very
commendable. The impersonation o.
Uncle Remus was as fine a piece o
acting as we ever saw anywhere.

A SINGULAR warfare has begun to be
winged between physicians and apothe-
carries in Brooklyn. Many of the former
now mix and dispense the medicines
which they prescribe, without extra charge
to they patient. The motive behind this
innovation is the desire to retaliate upon
the druggists, who prescribe for all Or
binary ailments and who extol the virtues
of patent preparations. thereby diminish
ing the fees of The doctors. They asser
that the druggists average profit on pre-
scriptions is upward of 800 per cent. Tn,
druggists retort that the doctors fees art
extortlonate and that they have begun t
throw in the medicine in order to post
pone an inevitable reduction. 1t threat
ems to be bitter and malOIOrous quar-
rel, although it is not likely to rage ia
and wide throughout the land, Brooklyn
is curious and peculiar town.

Father, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.


Mr. David Claypool, formerly Sergeant
alarms ofthe New Jersey Senate, and now
Notary Public at Cedarville, Cumberland
Co., N. j., makes the following startling
statement: "My father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption, and my
lungs were so weak raised blood. Nobody
thought 1 could live. My work (ship-
smithing was very straining on me with my
weak constitution, and was rapidly going
to the grave. While in this condition /
commenced using Mishler's Herb Bitters,
and it saved my life. Because it was so
difficult to get it in this little place, and |
had improved SO much, stopped taking it
for a time, and the result is that | have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishler's Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthens and builds me up
as nothing else does, and l must have a
dozen bottles at once. Use this commu-
nication as you please, and if any one wants
to be convinced Of its truth, let them write
me and | will make affidavit TO it, for |
owe my life to Mishler's Herb Bitters'
Thesecret of the almost invariable relief
and cure of consumption, dysentery, diar-
rhea, dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Bitters is used, is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and invigor-
ates the whole system. Purely vegetable
in its composition; prepared by regular
physician; a standard medicinal prepare
ton; endorsed by physicians and drug
gists, These are four strong points in favor
of Mishler's Herb Bitters. Mishler's Herb
Bitters is sold by all druggists. Price 81 .00
per large bottle. 6 bottles for $500.
