LOUIS JAMES.

Messrs. WAGENHALS and KEN
PER, Mr.. LOUIS JAMES mana
gers have given their star such sur
roundings as have rarely if ever been
seen before on our native stage.
They have spared no money in
equiping him with the finest scene-
ry and costumes that could be pro.
cured and further enhanced his
productions by supplying him with
every accessory of even the most
trihing description to enhance the
beauty of the stage pictures. In
the selection of the stage parapher-
MALTA the greatest care has been
taken to preserve historic accura-
cy in every detail The scenes pro-
trayed are faithful as far as they
could possibly be accertained, and
the arms. heraldic devices, banners,
accouterments, armors costumes,
furniture, draperies, tapestries and
the thousand and one detailes of
the stage settings are the results of
months of study and the work of
the most skillful laboratories of
America, England and France.
The scenery is all by Buehler and
Lanphear and the costumes by Her
ramann. The heraldic devices, ban
ners, etc, come from London,
while the suits of armor and the
arms are from Paris. The classic
tragedies have never been given
been given such presentations in
America and the coming of Mr.,
James and his splendid company
should be a red letter day IN the
annals of the local stage. Mr.. James
will be seen at the opera house
Mondy Nov. 30, in production of
Spartacus.

HOW TO PREVENT GROUP.
Some Reading that Will Prove Inter
esting to Young Mothers How to
Guard Against the Disease.

Group is a terror to young moth
ers, and to post them concerning
the cause, first symptoms and
treatment is the object of this
item. The origin of Group is COM
mon cold. Children who are sub
iect to it take cold very easily, and
Group is almost sure to follow The
FIRST symptom is hoarseness; this is
soon followed by a peculiar rough
cough, which is easily recognized
and will never be forgotten by one
who has heard it. The time to act
is when the child first becomes
hoarse. If Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy is freely given all tendency
to Group will soon disappear. Even
after the croupy cough has deveI'
oped it will prevent the attack.
There is no danger in giving this
remedy, for it contains nothing in
furious. For sale by Smith Drug
Company,

HEART Of TIE WORLD.
BY HI. RIDER HAGGARD.
Strange Story, Taken From Manuscript Bequeathed BY an Old
III Mexican Indian to His Friend and comrade,
Englshman Named JONES'
copyrighted. 1894. by H. Rider Haggard

At slid forward faster and faster,
while sharp sounds like pistol shots
came from the heart of it, and the trees
bent like rod beneath the rush of a
fish. Now, also, for the first time the
villains on the slope below perceived
the doom that threatened them and ut
tered such yell as had never heard
Some stood still, and some flung them
selves down the stair. One only, Don
Pedro himself, rushed forward.
II was too late; the mass Of stone
work, fifty feet long by twenty in
breadth, was failing. 1t fell, taking
Molas with it.
With a roar like that of thunder 1t
struck upon the stairway, and, burst.
Ing into fragments, swept it from end
to end.
In less than a minute 1t was done, the
sounds had died away, and nothing was
left to tell Of what had happened ex-
cept little dust and some remains that
hal been men. OF all those who stood
upon the stairway only one sur.
vived, Don Pedro, who had run
forward. But he was too late,
eior though the mass had missed him a
single stone struck him across the mid
die, breaking his bones and sweeping
him to the foot Of the first fight, but
leaving him alive.
When all was finished and the dust
had fallen to the earth again, the senior
spoke, saying;
LET us go md search for the body
Of our delivercr.'
So we went, the three Of US, leaving
Zilbalbay in the temple, but we could
not find 1t; doubtless TO this day it
lies buried beneath some Of the larger
blocks Of masonry. There were other
bodies, indeed, from which we did not
scruple to take the rifles and whatever
else was likely to be OF value to us.
Better still. tied among some trees near
the foot Of the pyramid we found four
good mules, one Of them laden with
ammunition and provisions, for Don
Pedro had come out determined to hunt
10 down even II he must follow us for
days.
Having picketed the mules where
they could Craze, we returned to the
temple, bearing with us food and drink,
Of which we stood in sore need On our
way up the steps Don Pedro called to
us from where he lay broken and bleed
Ing against IN uprooted tree.
Water he cried, ''give me water
and the senior gave him some mixed
with brandy, which we had found upon
the sumpter mule.
II am dying" moaned the wretch;
my presentiment has come true, and
death finds me among ruins"
"0ive me absolution, he went on.
"For the love Of God give me absolu-
tion."
II cannot, said the senior. II have
no authority Pray to heaven to shrive
you, for your time is short"
Then he turned and went, but for a |
long time we were troubled with the
cries and blasphemies of this most evil
man. Indeed, they did not cease until
sunset, when the devil came to claim
his own.

Tuesday evening, June 8. The matter
of the elephant on their hands in the
guise Of graded school house is to be
considered, and full attendance is de-

Next Sunday is Children's day, and
the pastor, superintendent of the Sun
day school, several teachers and many
of the scholars are thoroughly interest
ed in the subject and propose to make
the occasion one of pleasure, and, it is
hoped, profit to the school. The chill
dren are requested to meet on Saturday
afternoon at 2 o'clock in the church to
practice their parts, and at 3 o'clock the
ladies are requested to bring flowers.
The superintendent wishes the chill
dren to be there promptly at o'clock
and also on Sunday morning at 10
to have their children prompt at the
church to rehearse with the choir. This
seems a small thing to ask when the
superintendent and pastor are doing so
much, and it is hoped that every child
will be on hand at 10 O'clock
