KEEPING STRICT WATCH.
The Government ON the Lookout For II
tended Filibustering Expeditions

Jacksonville, Fla, Oct 6.-The Gov
eminent has put strict watch upon
Jacksonville to prevent any filtbustering
expedition leaving port. The cruiser
Newark, which left Key West last Satur-
day under scaled orders, is anchored off
ST. Johns bar, where n commanding
view of the entrance to the river is to he
had. The revenue cutters Boutwell, and
Merrill are anchored in the stream at
the foot of Liberty street, within 100
yards of the filibustering steamers, Three
Friends and Commodore which are tied
at the same wharf. The Merrill arrived
this morning from Charleston Captain
Kilgore, of the Boutwell,, said this after
noon that both cutters would remain
here to prevent suspected expedition
from getting away. The inference was
stay of the Newark at the mouth of the
river will be indefinite.
A statement that the Dauntless would
be blown up if it should attempt to leave
port, which has been attributed to Cap
tain Kilgore. was addressed to Engineer
'Deveaux, of the Dauntless, in jest, the
two men being old friends. However,
Captain Kilgorc has positive instruc-
lions not to allow any of the alleged fill
clustering vessels to leave port without
permission of the collector of customs,
who in turn communicates with the
Treasury Department.. With such per.
mission the Dauntless left for Bruins
wick, Ga, yesterday to engage in towing.
The Commodore was to have left port
to-day to do some towing on the coast,
and it was given permission to go, pro-

DELLA FON IN "THE LITTLE
TROOPER.

One of the most notable and interesting
theatrical events of the week will be the
appearance of Della Fox at the head of
her own opera company at the Academy
of Music, Thursday, October 8, in n yau-
dcville operetta entitled "Little Trooper
Fox has already won an enviable reputa-
ton as II comic opera comedienne, and
her new venture as star is warranted by
her thorough and varied experience in
operate roles, and her undoubte ability
as an actress and singer. In ''The Little
Trooper" Miss Fox will undoubtedly have
abundant opportunities for the display of
her admirable versatility ui,,. comedy
ability. AS the central figure she plays
the part OF retired young milliner,
whose varied fortunes compel her to ap-
pear disguised as peasant girl, a captain
ana grand came. Her company, which
numbers seventy-flve people, compares
favorably with any comic opera organIza-
tion In the country, as the names of the
principals in her support will testify.
The production will be splendid one,
complete in every detail The time and
scene OF the opera permit much richness

THE PRINCELY RHEA.
4u"uahloiSeile INCA, VINO VIII appear
Friday night, October 8, at the Academy
of Music, is seen at her best in oueenly
robes. Her Josephine, Empress of the
French, has long lived in the hearts of
her admirers, and she has gained.new lau-
rels in the impersonation of the unhappy
wronged woman, known to us as MARY,
Queen of Scots''
In Schiller's great dramatization of this
remarkable story, Mary is first seen in
Fotheringay Castle, surrounded by her
companions in misery, and the gloom of
her prison life is not lightened until the
garden scene of the third act. How beau
tiful to her appears the flowers and sun
light after her long Imprisonment. 1t is
here that she meets Elizabeth, and with
remarkable humiliation, asks her release,
forgiving her for her many insults; but
the proud Elizabeth spurns her advances,
and once more Mary is seen in her queenIy
character, proud and naughty as her sis-
ter. She meets each accusation, each
tarrnt with more piercing one, until at
last she drives Elizabeth from her pres
ence by the very fuzzy of her righteous in
dlgnasion. Then comes the trying scene,
when she is lead to the block No more
pathet5e picture could BE- presented than
this, and the audience can almost imsgine
the real Mary stands before them, SO nat
ural is R1lea.

A good, healthy wholesomeness will

There are many reasons why women
should take care TO be healthy. One
very strong reason is that beauty and
illness are very seldom found together.
Illness-and especially the kind peculiar

the eyes dull and sunken, the manner
listless and the intellect dull.

We favor the admission of the ter

BATTLE WITH A LYNX.
II Jumps From "A Tee Upon Hunters
Their Dogs Killed.

Farmland, Ind, Jan. 1.-While VIII
Lake, a young farmer, and a negro
named Scott were out coon hunting, Il
miles south of here, in the range Of
hills known as Devils Backbone, their
dogs treed what the men supposed TO
be a raccoon. With the aid of a Ian
tern Scott soon located the animal
among the branches of a tain sycamore.
He attempted to send ball between
dts glaring eyes, but at the report of his
rifle the animal with a piercing scream
made a spring and landed upon Scott.
knocking him down, and before the
dogs could come to his rescue, tore
away the clothing and badly lacerated
the flesh of his arms and shoulders.
In a short time the Canadian lynx, as
the animal proved to be, literally tore
three of the seven dogs TO shreds, and
was fast making away with the others,
when Lake attempted to strike Ii with
an ak, but only succeeded in turning
the infurlated animal from the dogs TO
himself, and was soon bitten and
scra tched in a terrible manner. The
wounded man fought savaGeGy. and he
finally dealt the lynx a death blow
with the ak, almost severing the head
from the body. The badly lacerated
hunters have the animal on exhibition,
and are receiving the praise OF farmers
of that region, who claim that the lynx
or some other widl animal has devour-
ed many of their young lambs and pigs
during the past year A purse has be- r
raised TO compensate the men for the
loss of tehir dogs. two more of which
died to-day.

out last evening. 1T is not so many
years ago that New Years eve was

wouldn't be standing around here
waiting for the clock TO strike r.
You would have had your celebration
well along by this time. 1 remember
when there were but very few OF the
crowd that lasted until midnight came.
Now you boys are too steady TO make
life on the night shift interesting. You
are not in IL with the gang that was
on the turf here six or seven years
ago. There was a crowd for you. They
never fell down. They always cele-
brated everything and when there
wasn't anything to celebrate they
scared up something You fellows
haven't the right system at all. / re-
