ceived many inquiries from people whs
have said that they would like 10 take treat

Gus impression, Doctors Copeland X Bell

treated at any former time They as well
as the new patients all 10 have the benefit
Of weeks treatment and medicine free.
This proposition is made for reasons
above given, and il is intended TO be as plain
and nequivocal as possible. Advertising
propositions of a similar character, but
more ambiguously worded. have sometimes
been made and patients responding have
found that the advertiser had left for him
self loop.hole by which he could charge
for medicine, while his treatment was free,
or for treatment while medicine was free,
or Tor both while advice was Tree.

who are suffering from catarrhal troubles,
or any kindred disease.
This offer holds good until April !. or as
long thereafter as Drs. Copeland x Bell

There was one sentiment unani-

One of them proved TO be the great lit

None of these retained by Mr.. Belmont

on Badge when he was offered for sale
at big sale in Lexington. and when the
sorry-looking specimen of race horse
was knocked down to him for small
sum he was given the grand laugh.
When he was leading the colt away
someone said: Byron, what are you 60

The Late Comedian Mackay.

John A. Mackay, the comedian, left
the stage forever with a joke on MS
lips. He had been playing in " Doro-
thy" and as he made his final exit he
told his audience that he "waS going to
buy some cough drops" But no medl-
cine could cure that fatal cold. Mac
kav had almost redeemed himself this
season from the ridicule that followed
his repeated tiascos of few years ago.
Singularly, he owed the disastrous turn
in his stage career to an accident. An
English farce called Twins" was i'm
ported to New York about 1885. Those
who had purchased it saw in it a for
time. and Richard Mansfield was en-
gagged to play the dual title role. Mans
field rehearsed the part for week. Ihen
his irrascible temper overcame him, and
he Quarrelled with J. c. Duff, who was
at that time managing the Standard.
As a result, Mansfield abandoned the
role. The night Of performance was
very close at hand and there was no time
to seek for substitute. Somebody sug-
gested Mackay, and in an evil hour he
accepted the task. But the character
was out vi HIS int, anu Nv 'i''N' - NNi''
bic mess of it. He had rehearSed very
hurriedly and there should have been
leniency in his auditors verdict. But
there was absolutely none, and the con-
demnation he received was the Severest
he had ever encountered. 1t wounded
his pride and shattered his hopes.
Thereafter he had no confidence In
himself, and thus discouraged he grew
careless and disconsolate. Some friends
endeavored to bring him back into his old
form, and "a Noble Son" was written
that he might have another chance.
The story of his disappearance just as
that play was to start on its tour Is
easily recalled. The effect Of this sec
ond fiasco was to place Mackay in OBJ
security and disfavor, and until he Joined
the Duff Opera Company little had been
heard of him. He was, however, slow
ly regaining friends by his capital work
in Dorothy" and he died in the city
where he had always been most admired.
Mackay's wife was Lavinia Bennett, an
actress. and a sister of that graceful
woman. Alice Anterior Mrs. Willie
Edouin). They were married about ten
wears ago in Brooklyn, but they had
been separated for many months, and
Mrs. Mackay had joined her sister In
England with her child.

Three new plays have been acted out

novelties have been of minor import

shot wounds inflicted by jealous crook.
For about two years Arthur Chambers,

gambler. said to be the son Of hotel
keeper in one of the large cities OF
Minnesota, has been intimate with
one May Riley, woman OF
the town. A few weeks ago
this woman east of Dugau or Chambers.
Tonight early Dugan thrust himself
into May Riley'S house, made the col
ored waman show him To May Riley 5
room up stairs, where he found Beze-
nah. May Riley and others. Quickly
drawing a 3S-calibre Self-cOcking pistol
he fired two shots into Bezenah'S abdo-
men, not foot away, then fired two
more shots at May Riley and fled, but
was captured. One shot grazed the HI
lev woman'S head. and the otter made a
flesh wound in her arm. Rezenah
was taken to the Cincinnati Hospital.
His recovery is impossible. He had an
engagement 10 fight Tommy Conner at
Dayton shortly, and was going into
training for it.
Bezenah won thirty-Seven nights.
Jack Bolan. the champion lightweight
of Ohio. and Bezenah met on three dit
ferent occasions. Possibly they were
the nearest matched men who ever faced
each other in ring. II was toss OF
penny between them. One of their hot
rest battles lasted three hours and fifty
six minutes, and there was no difference
between them at the close.
