The allegro of the symphony was most
successfully played. The applause at the
end of the andante was as feeble as the
playing of the movement had been ana
some of the wind instruments met WIN
shipwreck in the moderate. The presto left
better impression. Flotow's overture
fStradella" was about the best thing done
in the concert; it was played with spirit
and verye, and the shading was good. A
Strauss waltz, 'fWine, Women and Song,
was also received with enthusiastic ap-
plause by the large and fashionable audi
ence. IAN Album Leaf" by Herman
Brandt, was played delicately and grace
fully, even if a little monotonously by the
strings.

JUST ONE RAY OF HOPE.
NJ. BrunSOn Believes That His SOI
Still Lives.
What He Discovered on an Inspection Of
the Elbe'S Passenger List.
Another Telegram.

Mr.. Brunson, father of young Captain
John NJ. Brunson, still has hope that his
son and daughter-in-law were not
drowned at the time the steamer Elbe
foundered. Yesterday he received letter
from Paul Goldsmith, New York journal
ist and friend of the captain, which con-
tains only these words:
Brunson is safe. Do not be alarmed
During the afternoon the father called at
the Office of the North German Lloyd,
where he saw Robert Cappele, the agent,
who showed him copy of the Elbe's pas
senger list.
"0n this list" said the elder Brunson
last night, "appears the name Ida Brunson,
and then follows G. M. Brunson. Then
there are number of names of men, and
after each OF these names are the words
and wife know my son SO well that |
know be would not register as u. M.
Brunson, and that wherever he went with
| his wife he always registered as y. M.
Brunson and wife That gives me hope
| that the unfortunates who We're drowned
were not my son and his wife, but that
| they were Mr.. Brunsen and sister of De-
| troit, Mich.
"The agent of the steamship company,
when asked if he could not do something
| to settle the great doubt, at once sent dis
patch to the office in New York requesting
| that cablegram be sent to Bremerhaven
| to make inquiry about the identity of the
| Brunsons and spare no expense. The
answer will not be received until to-mor-
row. Then l shall probably know the fate
of my boy.
Tuesday night the members of First Troop
| Cavalry, of which young Brunson was
captain, met in their armory, when Lieu
| tenant McKinnon announced The fact that q
dispatch received from Berlin left no doubt
as to the sad end of Captain Brunson and
| his wife. He then read the last letter
which he had received from Captain Brun-
son, which has already been published in

Nervousness

Is really only another name for impure
blood, for no person is weak and ner-
vous whose blood is perfectly pure.
When the blood Is full of the germs
of disease, and lacking in the red cor
pusoles which give it vitality, when it
fails to properly nourish the organs
and tissues of the body, what can you
expect but that tired feeling and ner-
vousness?
OF course Scrofula, Salt Rheum,
Catarrh and rheumatism are uni
versally recognized as blood diseases,
for which Hoods Sarsaparilla, as the
best blood purifier, is everywhere
acknowied the greatest remedy.
Therefore, as Hoods SarsapariIla
cures all blood diseases, it is the best
remedy for that condition of the blood
which causes Nervousness.
1t is false idea to think you are
curing your nervousness when you are
taking preparation which only quiets
your nerves! tits like trying to drown
your sorrows in the flowing bowl.
They are sure to return, ten fold aoorse.
We wish to make most impressive,
then, this truism:
You cannot purify your blood by
DEADENxNe or QUIE1NG your nerves
with opiate, narcotic or nerve COM
pounds. If you take such articles
you are only THRILLING with your
troubles. There is SURE to be REAC-
TIoN which viii leave you worse than
you were before.
Why not then, take the true course,
follow the bee line to the state of
health, purify your blood and cure
your nervousness by taking
