in spreading Mr.. and Mrs. McNeils notoriety
Mrs. Mcneil says she is going to leave the coun-
try and go as far as her money will take her
anywhere, so that she will never see her hus-

The latest difficulty of the unhappy couple oc-
Cured early yesterday morning, aud was fully

in the day Mrs. Mcneil sent word up to her hus-
band that IL he would consent to sale of the
property owned by the two she would withdraw
prosecution. Mcneil Indignantly refused, but
when the hour for his appearance In court ar

wilted and signed the papers, which Mrs Nc
Neil had already prepared and put into the
hands of an auetioneer. she then withdrew her
charge and Mcneil was allowed to depart in

Rescued From the Depth of Misery.

The misery endured by unfortunates whose
Iivers are derelict in duty is unspeakable. Sick
headaches, nausea, costiveness, disorder of the
digestive apparatus, heartburn, vertigo unrest,

short right ribs aud right shoulder blade. tickle

tousness, which. however, speedily vanish when

the digestive, secretive and evacuative functions
satisfactorily proves. In eases of malarial dis
eases the liver is the principal gland involved,

"Nip and Tuck"

There was but little cessation last night to the
mirth that echoed and re-echoed through the
Cordray theater, oyer the representation of the
popular farce comedy "Nip and Tuck" Many
who saw the performance in the early part of
the week, have revisited the theater to witness
second performance, and that is indubitable
proof of the drawing qualities of the play, and
of its skillful representation by, the Corjray
Company. Messrs. Morris and Williams, in the
principal parts, are making careful excisions in
several scenes. and embellishing at points APP
parently weak. BY careful pruning, and ju-
dieious introduction of brighter dialogue at
certain junctures, the piece can be made still
more attractive. The auditorium programme is
a favorite with frequenters of that popular re-
sort this week, and all who attend the theater
should witness its performance

A Gearless Electric Motor.

Both the Edison and the Thomson Houston
companies are working on inventions that will
tend to lessen the noise of moving cars in oper-
alton on electric lines. Two plans are being
worked on. One to improve the gearing, and
the other to do away with the gearing entirely.
