"L'ABSINTHEUR.
A Very Strong Play, With Spleen
did Dialogue and SOmber
Scenes.
Marie Prescott, as the Authoress.
ls Seen in n Part of Her Own
Creation.

''L'Absintheur" IS certainly a very
fascinating play, although at times the
reading of the lines is exceedingly grue-
some. The plot of the play is taken
from the book entitled "WormwoOd,"
but the dialogue and the character and
climaXes are the creation of Miss Marie
Prescott, and in point of language it Is
a very creditable piece of work. 1t
hardly ever drags, but needs the closest
attention of the auditor to thoroughly
comprehend the thread of the story, and
Miss Prescott will undoubtedly see in
the near future some of the weak points
which need observation-disclosures of the
particular ones being the honor Of the
heroine, which is left.in sort of haZy
doubt, either by lack of acting or the
lack of conversation. Barring this the
remainder of the dialogue is very well
put together, and she has also succeeded
in creating besides tue two leading
characters very bright part in Andre
GessonneX, which was remarkably we'll
handled by Barry tombstone. 1.-The
Absinthe Drinker" is modern in scenes
and construction. but has close ALI
ance to the Legitimate in language and
action.
The two leading characters OF Pauline
de CharmilleS and CASTOR BeauvaiS, as
portrayed by Prescott and MacLean,
are remarkably strong, and it should
not be taken as a reflection 10 say that
the former is more fitting to the indI-
Vidual than the latter. 1t is Miss Pres
colts own creation, and she certainly
has true conception of the part, and
from the charming maiden OF the first
act to the woman calling for retribution
on her former lover she is grand in
every scene. MacLean as Beauvais,
the once happy and prosperous lover.
but afterward the confirmed abSintheur,
who lives in bright and happy world
all his own, created only by the spark
ling green liquor, but which drives the
victim to madness, misery and murder,
is true eXemplifcation of the trightful
evils of overindulgence in stimulantS
that eXhilerate the body, but poison and
kill the heart and brain. as we'll as the
awful results that will surely follow
those WHO give way to and grieve over
worldly disappOlutmentS. The eXpia-
ton scene is horrible in the extreme,
and it seems hardly just for the crime
of having given full sway to mans pas
slonS brought about by the cOntended
love OF one woman.
One feature OF the play is the contrast
OF the absintheur in high and low life,
and the two meetings OF Andre and
CASTOR are good examples Of their reIa-
tons, and gives quite brightness to
the otherwise SOmbereSque nature OF
the picture. The audience was of fair
size, and a remarkably demonstrative
and appreciative one. Same bill for
three nights and Wednesday matinee.

They have had no occasion until late

A LAND OF PHENOMENA.
Strange Results Produced by storms In
the Northern Half of BOrneo.

Strange Results Produced by storms In
the Northern Half of BOrneo.
The northern half of the island of
Borneo is the queerest and most unsat-
isfactory place to live that one can
imagine, says a writer in the Globe
Democrat. 1t is land of constant re-
curing phenomcna,w where cyclones are
frequent and delugcs of water very
common. The vegetation in that half
is very fine, but in all probability the
widest and most tangled on earth
not even excepting that of Africa.
The cause OF all the trouble is the
shallow condition of the sea north of
it. great shoals of sand existing few
miles ou3 which extend along its en-
tire northern length. These shoals
are covered by depth of water not
over five feet deep. The constantly
recurring winds that blow in that eli
mate change to hurricanes and sweep
the smaller islands of all visible life.
When Such storm strikes the sand
shoals north OF Borueo it sweeps up the
shallow salt water into its course and
drenches the island with IL. often it
gathers up sand, great masses of it,
from the clear swept shoal and whirls
it for miles high over the island. carry
ing it into the inland and scattering it
everywhere. The work of these
storms does not always end with that.
Entire shoals of fish, of all sizes, have
been swept up time and again by the
fierce wind with the water and sand
and scattered about Borneo. In some
places the ground would be literally
covered with fish, enough to supply a
heavy population for weeks But
such luck is no reparation for the evil
the winds do, and consequently the
northern half will never be inhabited
by those who value their lives.

SURPRISING NEWS.

Inc San fFdUClsCO NHTOHtCt7 iAohNC
pertinent remarks on the suppression
OF dispatch announcing the alarming
presence OF cholera at an Italian port.
The Chronicles structures on this
method OF newsgathering, or rather
this method OF not newsgathering, is
severe, but jnst and equally applicable
to the practice OF many newspapers in
the towns and cities OF the United
States.
Announcements OF invasions by scar.
let fever, diphtheria, smallpox and
other Indignantly contagious diseases
are seldom made until they have be-
come so prevalent that suppression is
no longer possible and lives have been
lost which might have been saved had
proper and natural warning been given.
This criminal suppression is often
made for no other reason than that il
the presence OF the disease were made
known financial loss to the town would
ensue; that many persons il warned of
the disease would not come into the
locality; that business would suffer
thereby.
There can be only one reasonable ex.
cuse for the suppression OF this class OF
news and that is that useless panic
more fatal than the disease may be
averted. The conditions, however,
which would make this excuse tenable
are so infrequent and so difficult to de-
termine that it may be set down as an
unvarying rule that every invasion by
contagious disease should be given
the greatest possible publicity.
1t is really senseless to try to conceal
the presence OF disease with the view Of
establishing a belief among outsiders
that any particular locality is free from
any particular disease. When an out
break comes which is so serious that it
can no longer be concealed the decep-
ton practiced in the suppression of in
formation concerning it becomes m ore
damaging to the town from financial
point OF view than the disease itself.
The worst feature is the morally
criminal feature. The newspapers of
course have no active purpose in invit-
ing persons into plague.stricken city,
that they may fall victims to the plague.
They may, in fact, hope that these I'M
warned visitors may not become VIC
TINS, but il they should, that would be
only an unfortu nate incident OF the
murderous plan OF concealment.
The burglar when he arms himself
with knife or pistol, preparatory to a
house breaking expedition, hopes that
he may not be interrupted in his preda-
tory excursion through the house. II,
however, the next morning the house
holder is found with bullet in his
brain or a knife-thrust in his heart,
that, too, is only an unfortunate in
cident OF another murderous plan.

MYSTERIES!

Wonderful Discoveries,

No mystery has ever compared with that OF
human life. 1t has been the leading subject
OF professional research and study in all ages |
But Notwithstanding this fact it Is not gener-
Arizona republican., 1893-08-01

Recent discoveries have demonstrated that
ali the organs of the body are under the con.
troll OF the nerve Centers, located In or near
the base OF the brain, and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve tiuid are also deranged. When IL Is re-
membered that a serious injury TO the spinal
cord will cause paralysis OF the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force Is
prevented by the injury from reaching the
the arrangement OF the nerve centcrS will
cause the arrangement of the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
TWO-thirdS of chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action Of the nerve Centers at
the base of the brain, not from q dcrange-
ment primarily originating In the organ it
self. The great mistake of physicians in
treating these diseases is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centerS which
are the cause of the trouble.
DIR. FRANKLIN MILES, the celebrated spe-
cialist,ha profoundly studied this subject for
over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries in connection with IL, chief among
them being the facts contained in the above
statement, and that the ordinary methods OF
treatment are wrong. All headache diLZi-
ness, dullnCSS, confusion, pressure, blues,
mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, ST.
NituS dance, etc, are nervous diseases no
matter how caused. The wonderful success OF
DIR. Miles Restorative Nervine is due TO the
fact that 1t Is based on the foregoing principle.
