stroyed by fire at $50 Saturday morn

originated in a cook shanty, adjoining

Palmer Cox's Brownies" Judging
from the interest displayed, the limit
ed enlargement OF G. b. Jefferson, Klaw
& Erlanger's magnificent spectacular
production, direct and intact from its
long run of $50 nights at the Fourteenth
Street theater, New York. will play to
the greatest business yet done at the
Frothingham. The engagement Is
limited to Thursday. Friday and Sat
urday nights of this week. with one
matinee only, on Saturday. Seats go
on sale this morning, and the manage
ment advises that they be secured well
in advance, in order that no disappoint-
ments may ensue. This will be the
only opportunity of witnessing the
great production. for Scranton will be
the only city in Pennsylvania in which
1t is to appear. Large parties will
come to the performances from Wilkes
Barre Carbondale. Plttston and other
towns. The stage is to be in charge of
Charles b. Jefferson, Joe Jefferson's
son. and Palmer Cox, the famous
Brownie man." Is to personally super
wise the production. Arthur Frothing-
hams enterprise in guaranteeing
$500 for the four performances, as well
as defraying the expenses Of q special
train to bring the mammoth equip
ment from New York to Scranton, is
being much talked about.
Il. II. Sothern in "Captlan Letter
blair" is booked for the Academy Fri
day night. Neither the actor nor the
play needs elaborate comment. Mr..
sothern is clearly recognized as one of
the leading American players and
Captain Letterblair" is said to be his
greatest success. This Is indicated by
the fact that during long run at the
Lyceum theater. New York. three matt
nees were given each week. This Is an
unusual thing in the metropolis, but the
public demanded 1t. Mr.. Sothern, In
the play, represents young Irish
officer in the British army, and in this
character clinched more strongly his
popularity with the Lyceum's fashion
able patrons.

RECLAIMED FROM DEATH.
The Terror Of Man ThWarted.
In the Grasp Of that Dread Disease, Con-
sumptiOn.- Life Given Back. Almost
Miraculous.


In tho Grasp Of thAt Dread Disease, Con-
sumption.-LifeG Given Back. almost
Miraculous.
Fortunately, perhaps, the Consumptive
does not realize his own condition. His
Is disease Of continual waste until he
meets a death that Is In reality one of
starvation.
1t is now generally conceded that this
disease is incurable, - that is, by any
known medicine. Change of climate, or
some life-infusing food that will give new
flesh, blood, and strength, and induce the
various organs of the body to assume their
normal functions, - this is the only hope.
The only way to do this effectually is to
give the patient Bovinine, that great raw
food product, the greatest concentration
of the life-giving elements of raw beef
known to modern science. In this con-
nection the results obtained by DR.. j. II.
Head Of Atlanta, Ca, in the treatment of
a case of consumption, are interesting.
DR.. Fead relates briefly how man
about thirty-fve years of age came to him
for treatment. He had lost forty pounds
in weight in six months; he suffered with
bad cough and experienced severe night
sweats; he was unable to do any work;
most of his family had died of consump-
ton, and on examination his right lung
was found to be seriously affected, and as
the doctor remarked, He was in good
way to have an early funeral"
But note what happened. He was given
Bovinine. In two weeks he had gained
seven pounds, his appetite had returned,
he was able to do good days work, and
most of the distressing symptoms had
vanished; and at the time of writing the
doctor felt sure of a complete cure.
This is but one of many similar cases.
Bovinine will give new life and strength,
make new blood and flesh, stop waste,
ward off disease and turn the current of
life's river again into its natural channel
Give it one trial while there is yet hope.

The announcement that "Oliver

one of the most important dramatic

OF the many works written by Charles
Dickens which have been dramatized
1t is doubtful If any of them possess
dramatic features so alluring as "Oliver
Twist" The members of the company
who are enlisted in this presentation,
are, in all the leading roles at least,
people of reputation and recognized
ability. Miss Elita Proctor Otis, who will
play Nancy Sykes, first came into pro-
fessional prominence as Mrs. Eastlake
Chapel in 1.-THE Crust of Society,"" in
which role she achieved a marked Sue

from the society lady to the denizen of
the slums, and such transition Is not
an easy one even to actresses whose
career has been more lengthy than that
of Miss Otis. Her success Is well

military news LETTER
Lieutenant Colonel COursen In.
dOubtedly the Next Commander.
CONTEST FOR THE MAJORSHIP
Major Mates VIII BE Lieutenant Colonel
but Ills Successor Is Unknown.
Paragraph No. 10. of the Code,
Reveals u State OF Affairs.

The order for an election to fill the
office Of colonel of the Thirteenth regi-
ment has been published. Lieuten-
ant Colonel Coursen is the unanimous
choice OF the line officers and he will be
elected.
There is no doubt that Major Mates
will become lieutenant colonel. The
doubt If any, Is as to who will be elect
ed to Major Mates position. Captain
Montrose Barnard Is the senior line
officer and he is confident of his cleo
ton. His friends are pushing his
claim for all 1t is worth, and it is good
one. but exCaptain William B. Rock
well. formerly of Company II, has an
nounced himself a candidate and Is
working hard for the necessary number
of votes.
Paragraph No. 10 of the military code
specifies that: The military officers
of the state shall be chosen as follows:
Field officers of regiments and battal-
ions by the written or printed votes Of
the commissioned officers of the compa-
MES of the respective regiments or bat
tallons" There are at present twenty
three line or company officers in the
iNbiiiicii'' tdpldlh hIucy, VI Company
G, Montrose, has resigned, and should
his resignation be accepted before the
ninth, there will be but twenty-five.
Three of the twenty-five have not re-
ceived commissions, nor is it probable
that they can be secured before the
election. If this Is the case, and the
sense of Paragraph No. 10 is that none
but those holding commissions shall be
eligible to a vote, there will be but
twenty votes, including that of Captain
Ainey. So, eleven votes will be neces-
sary to elect.
Change in Company ID.
If Captain Barnard should be elected
to be major, Lieutenant Stratton will
be a candidate for captain of Company
d. 1t is not known that Lieutenant
Stokes will oppose Lieutenant Stratton,
but should he conclude to do so, there
may ba a close contest.
Company b is awaiting an order that
they may elect a captain. Lieutenant
kambeck Is the only one mentioned
for the position.
The rehearsals for "Allatoona' are
being held three times q week under
the able direction of Stage Manager
d. Webster Scism. No one not in the
cast is permitted at these rehearsals,
which are being conducted as near to
professional lines as possible.
Miss Norton, of New York, who will
take the leading lady's part, is expected
on Thursday. The cast of characters is
complete and each one is making ad-
mirable progress. Next rehearsal this
evening at 8 o'clock sharp.
