STOCKHOLDERS MEETING
OF the Glover Medicine Company, Thursday
Afternoon, at the company's Office.

There was meeting OF the stockholders
of the Glover Medicine Co., at the com
pany's building on State street, yesterday
afternoon. The affairs of the company
we're thoroughly talked over. and opinions
freely expressed as to the policy to be pur-
sued in the future conduct of the business.
One of the officials OF the company be-
lieved that it only required little push
and an increased expenditure for advertis-
ing to make the business success. He
declared that no patent medicine had at
the start made better showing for the
length of time it had been upon the mar
ket than did the Clover Bitters. One
thing, however, was imperative, viz,
money In order to push the medicines to
success, more funds must be raised.
There was some difference of opinion as
to the methods to be pursued in the
future. Those who urged the ACCESSIBILITY
of an immediate increase Of capital, be-
lieved that, with proper handling, the
business would be an exceedingly pro-
fltable one. The idea CT increasing the
capital by assessments upon the stock, did
not appear to find many enthusiastic ad-
vocates.
The project Of raising the needed funds
by an issue of preferred stock met with
more favor. But rs majority of the
stock was not represented at the meeting,
no action to this end could be taken at
that time.
An adjournment was therefore made for
a week At the next meeting it is hoped
that the greater part of the stock will be
represented, and that, therefore, whatever
action may be taken will be entirely legal.

A Trip to the Weather Commits sioner.

The lover of the sleigh ride is beginning
to give up all expectations of enjoying the
pleasures of the drive, and the jingle of
the bells is thing not to be mentioned.
The fine old moon, which has for so many
years been accustomed to look down upon
so many merry times, will doubtless Won
der at this section of the earth, and ask
himself, How came it so; what is the
matter down tbcre.'
Along with the disappointment on the
part of the once merry sleigh riders is to
be noted "A tired feeling on the part Of
those who are letters and vendors of
sleigh., horses, etc. II doesn't seem right.
But, what is worse yet. now about the
thousands whose winter bread aud butter
depends upon their getting employment
at shovelling snow? They may have
cause to congratulate themselves that the
regular cold has been spared them but
that doesa't feed them.
As for these ancient Inhabitants who
recall, hack in the forties, Just sech a
winter. b'gosh." let them tc silenced,
and give the people the satisfaction,
unless positively proven to the contrary.
that this is absolutely, undeniably and
most inexcusably the most unreasonable
winter that December and January ever
had tie brass to countenance.

.in Old Kentucky"

Few plays Of recent date have been
more highly commended than "In Old
Kentucky" which Will appear az the
Opera House. tomorrow evening. IL was
one of the most successful plays on the
road, last season. Three companies have
been playing it in various paris of the
country and all to great financial returns
The play tells comparatively simple
story in stirring way; the types repre-
sented by the characters are interesting
as well as human, and what is most i'm
portant of all, they appeal to tho heart.
The heroine IS /, sweet Kentucky grim
whose love affairs one takes lively in
terest. The production is an elaborate
and expensive one and the scenes repre-
sentipg are remarkable for their fidelity
to nature.
