ADJUSTMENTS.

"a Woman's Crime," in which the
New York Stock Company begins this
weeks engagement at the Clunie to-
night, is credited with being an excep-
tionally strong melodrama, one that is
devoid of sensationalism and depends
upon its strong realistic picture from life,
backed by literary merit, for its drawing
power. The story, which is told in four
acts. is substantially as follows: George
Brand, young clergyman, has fallen
desperately in love with Ruth whose
hand is also sought by Stephen
Marber. gambler and blackleg,
who has accomplished the ruin
of Barbara. To cover her shame
Ruth that the clergyman wrecked her
life, which resulted in Ruth marrying
Stephen, and they move to London. At
ter squandering Ruth's little horde of
money they drifted from bad to worse
and are finally discovered in rickety
howell with their child, which is sick and
dying. To save the, child's life, Ruth is
induced to steal money, which Stephen
appropriates and spends; the child dies
from starvation and themother is arrested
and imprisoned. Upon serving her sem
tence Ruth returns home and her GRIM
inal husband visits the house to
burglarize it. The fourth act
ulscioses halper oen anu the Villain at
bay. He has persuaded his wife to visit
him, and attempts to murder her, which
crime is frustrated by the timely arrival
of George Brand, between whom and the
villain there is an exciting hand-to-hand
encounter, resulting in the accidental
death of Stephen. The piece has been
cast to the full strength of the company,
with Mr.. Snow as George Brand, Mr.
Hallett as Stephen Marber, May Nannary
as Ruth, and Genevieve Nannary, y
handsome young juvenile actress, will
make her initial appearance as Barbara.
The comedy parts are sure of careful
handling by Miss Calef and Mr.. Wal
dron. The piece will be mounted with
the usual attention to detail, and will
surely repeat the customary good busl-
ness at the Clunie.

FLOWER THIEVES

Ihey Wantonly Destroy Choice Plants

residents In various parts of the CITY
are continually suffering from raids upon
their growing plants and flowers, which
are stolen from their yards.
The yard of DR.. C. B. Nichols has been
repeatedly visited by despicabIe tres
passers and number of choice imported
plants and shrubs pulled up by the roots
and others destroyed.
some OF the plants recently taken from
ms yard were found in the street, after
the thieves had cut the blossoms from
them. A number Of them were very ex
pensive and had been imported from
abroad, and after being carefully trans
planted and attended their destruction
was exceedingly aggravating.

rendered reverence to the Son OF Mary as
the Son of God-attest the divinity of His

rmitators and Inpostors.

The unequaled success of ALLcocK's
Porous PLAsTERs as an external remedy
has induced INSCRIPTIONS parties to offer
limitations, which they endeavor to sell on
the reputation OF ALLcoCK's. 1t is an alb
surdity to speak of them in the same cate
CORY as the genuine porous plaster. Their
pretensions are unfounded, their Wanted
merit unsupported by facts, their alleged
superiority to or equality with ALLcoCk's
a false pretense.
The ablest medical practitioners and
chemists and thousands of grateful pa
tients unite in declaring ALLcoCK's PoR-
Gus PLAspERs the best external remedy
ever produced.
Beware OF limitations, and do not be de-
ceived by misrepresentation. Ask for
ALLCoCE's, and let no solicitation or ex-
PLANTATION induce you to accept substi-
tute. fsr

About o'clock on Saturday morning

side Of the river, and near the present
break in the levee, were burned.
How the fire started is not known. All
the buildings were surrounded by water
and have been for several weeks, and
were unoccupied. Some one either had
to go to them in q boat to start the fire. or
else it may have been the work of rats or
mice by chewing up matches.
The loss will be considerable, as the
