Yesterday was bad day for the theaters.
A rainy afternoon is hard luck for show
people. and the matinees usually have
small audiences Nancy 81 Co." was
played before fair audience, though, and
made everybody laugh. That the Rehan
Company knows how to play comedy no
one who has seen Nancy & Co." will deny.
The play itself is bright, crisp, and sparkles
with fun. Its absurdities are all
the more absurd in the hands
Of such artists as Mr. Rehan has got to-
gether, and it is doubtful if better per-
formance Of the kind has ever been given
at the theater. From the bewitching
Nancy Of Miss Waters, down to the
gawk of an Irish servant the members Of
the company are people Of merit. Last night
"7-20-S" was played before a usual Satur
day night audience. The piece has been
seen here before and there was not the ia

There was a large number of tourists to
Florida and the greater number Of them
stopped over in Savannah
Although the tourist season will last but
little more than month longer, the hotel
men expect rush to the south before it is
over. Not such rush as they anticipated
two months ago, but they expect more
tourists in Savannah during the coming
month than have been here during any one
month of the season. They say that the
weather for tins istter part Of February
and 20 far the first NJ March has not been
disappointed about tho travel to Florida,

The tourists who hayH been to Florida
viii not return unls1 the latter part Of
March or April a, and nearly all Of them
usually stop over in Savannah. So that the

A Special Order.

A little. child at Troy was much
pleased to be told that she had a little
baby brother, and was exceedingly
anxious to know whence it came. The
little prattler was put off by the state
ment that the letter-carrier had
brought it. Soon after in her glee she
was telling neighbor Of her good for
tune. The neighbor, to arouse the
curiosity of the child, said: 'Well,
that was q mistake on the part Of the
carrier. He promised me that baby,
and by mistake left it at your house. -
"Well,". said the little one. .'this was
intended for my mamma, and we have
already named It after grandpa; so you
cant have it, for the letter-carrier
comes again in the afternoon, and I
will see him and tell him that he must
bring you one too" The little one
patiently watched at the window until
the letter-carrier came, and at once
delivered herself Of her charge, much
to the amusement Of the letter-carrier,
who took in the situation and promised
that he would not forget to fill the
order with the first little baby he, had
TO spare. 5s~ -.

Finance and Suicide.

Ayoung financier NJ. Holfon-a rela-
tive of the Camondos-has just COM
mftted suicide under melancholy cir
cumstances. He was unable to meet q
debt of E6, 900, and he absolutely staked
his life on a game Of cards. He bor-
rowed 44OO from a friend and went to
. club, where he lost his money as we'll
as an additional E4OOs which he had
borrowed from the steward. He then
went out to the Bots de ,Boulogne and
shot himself there. He was found ly-
ing outside the Chinese pavilion, where
the Tziganes usually play, his head re-
posing on a soft hat. which was satur-
ated with blood. In his button-hole
was an orchid, and in pocket of his
coat was a letter, in which he express
ed u desire that his body should be-
taken for Identification to the morgue.
This is another instance of the
tragic consequences of that craze for
riches which has characterized persons

masters, horses, chariots, and so on,

EXTRAORDINARY LICENSE.

"It seems to me, remarked one Of
our citizens the other day, "that
physicians are allowedextraordinary
license in the manner in which they
iuggle with the welfare of their pa
tients." al
"Now here is DR.. who was at
tending Mr.-up to the time of his
death, and if he treated him for one
thing he treated him for q dozen differ
ent disorders. First the doctor said
pneumonia was the trouble; then it
was consumption. Then the patient
was dosed for heart trouble, and so
on until just before he died it was as
certained that disease ofthe kidneys
was the real trouble, and that which
had been at first treated US pneumo-
MIA, consumption; heart disease, ETC.,
were but the symptoms of the kid
ney disease.
"But then it was too late.
"This is only one case in q hun
dred. and am beginning to lose
faith in the doctors altogether. In
fact I haven't had any need for their
service since I began to: keep War
ner's Safe Cure in my house, O little
over three yearsago. Whenever feel
alittle out of sorts l take a few doses
of it, confident that the source of all
disease is in the Kidneys, which 1
know Warmers Safe Cure will keep in
good order, and will eradicate any
dieease that may be lurking there.
Had MIR. followed q similar
course, I have no doubt that he
would be alive today; but of course
oil people don't think alike.
Gone thing is certain, however, and
this is the doctors are allowed.a a lit
tie too much freedom in the way they
have of pretending to know that
which they really know nothing
about. If they don't know what is
the real trouble with the patient,
they should admit it and not go on
and experiment at the cost Of the
patients life.''
