GOLD GLORY" OR NO SHOW.

Many persons who witnessed Rice's
1892 at the theatre last Saturday night,
failed to notice that the American flag
played prominent part i'm the prodtc,
ton. In fact no one went to the show
the same, plenty of them, and they
were all American flags.
The show is thoroughly American.
Queen Isabella of Spain in 1892" 1896,
wears costumes Of Fifth avenue style,
and Columbus, wrapped in the Stars
and Stripes, lands in Madison Square
on an up-to-date voyage of discovery.
There is an enhancing Columbian
March in another act, where the pretty
girls are decorated with the Stars and
Stripes, and everything about the en-
tire production indicates Mr.. Rice's
patriotism.
The show went from Pittsburgh to
Montreal. 1t took all of its flags with
it. Everything went well until Mon
day night, when a weeks engagement
was begun in the Academy of Music in
that city.
About II o'clock Monday night Mr..
Rice received at his New York office
the following telegram
Great uproar caused tonight by the Colum.
bia March. Big audience Missed and jeered
the American flag and the Goddess of Liberty,
and refused TO allow the performance TO be
continued until the American emblems were
removed from the stage. What shall l do?
GEORGE WADLEY, Mgr "l492" Co.
The following message was flashed
back:
Give them the American flag or no show.
f. +. RICE.
Early Tuesday morning Mr.. Rice
rushed down to the Office of Charles
Hess, i'm the Manhattan Life Insurance
Building. He was determined to make
an international issue of it. He in
structed Mr.. Hess to draw up an appeal
to the State Department and Mr.. Hess
did it.
Mr.. Rice next went out and bought
several gross of American flags, together
with the finest silk Old Glory he could
find. These he packed i'm his trunk
and boarded New York Central train
for Montreal, passing through Platts-
burgh Wednesday morning.
Before starting Mr. Rice told Mr..
Hess that he intended to decorate the
theatre with American flags tonight,
and, moreover, that he should drive
from the railway station to his hotel i'm
cab festooned with the American
colors.
Rice's friends say he will carry out
his threat if he has to cancel the entire
Canadian tour of the 1892" company.
-Plattsburgh IN. w. Sentinel.
We feel certainif this company should
ever play an engagement here, they
would be greeted by crowded house
of lovers of Old Glory.

For your Protection.- Cata1h "Cures" = Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be take. internally. usually contain either Mercury or Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur- ious if too long taken. Catarrh is local, not . blood disease, caused by sudden change to cold or damp weather. It starts in the nasal passages, affecting eyes, eals and throat. Cold in the head causes excessive flow Of mscus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re- suits of catarrh will follow; severe pain in the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad breath. and oftentiines an offensive dis charge. The remedy should be quick to allay inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's Cream Balm Is the acknowledged cure for these troubles and contains no mercury nor any injurious drug. Price, 50 cents.

Claimed to he the Wandering Jew.

Stuart, n little hamlet among the Penn
sylvania hills, is much exercised over tho
appearance of a weather beaten traveller
who claims to be the Wandering jew. {"
Stuart is a cluster of houses whose occu-
pants, descendants of thrifty Dutch set
tiers, are endeavoring to wrest q scanty
living from the barren soil. At ono of
these houses one afternoon a stranger up
peared and asked for q slice of bread and
cup of water. He was Of a peculiar swarthy
appearance, and had Jewish features. His
clothing was of leather. His wrinkled
skin was leathery, too, and his general ap-
pearance cast a shadow Of fear over the
heart of the housewife who answered his
call. The old man told her in good English
that he was the Wandering Jew" upon
whom the blight fell Is centuries ago. He
would give no other name, but with graph.
ic description related incidents alleged to
have occurred centuries ago and quoted
passages of ancient history. He claims to
have visited several times every habitable
portion of the globe. The simpler inhabit.
ants of Stuart hold this man in supernat.

tigated the case say he Is probably an old
Bible student who has become demented.
He disappeared as suddenly as he came.

Philosophy of Architecture.

When IL becomes evident that we are
merely speaking a foreign language with
a noticeable American accent, whereas
each and every architect in the land
might, under the benign influence of this
law, express in the simplest, most modest,
most natural way, that which II is in
him to say; that he might really and
would surely develop his own character
istic individuality; and that the archi-
tectural art with him would certainly be-
come a living form of speech, a natural
form of utterance, giving surcease to him
and adding treasures small and great to
the growing art of his land.
When we know and feel that Nature is
our friend, not our implacable enemy
that an afternoon in the country an hour
by the sea, a full open view of one single
day, through dawn, high noon, and twi-
light, will suggest to us so much that is
rhythmical, deep and eternal in the vast
art of. architecture, something so Deep
so true, that all the narrow formalities
hard-and-fast rules and strangling bonds
of the schools cannot stifie it in us-then
II may be proclaimed that we are on the
high-road to a natural and satisfying art
an architecture that will soon become a
fine art in the true, the best sense of the
word; an art that will live because it will
be of the people, for the people and by
the people.-Louis II. Sullivan in March

jury that Investigated the facts con-
nected with the death of Billy Adams
found nothing that would warrant
them In holding j. l. Kirk responsible
for the sad affair and he was accord
ingly released from custody. The au-
topsy performed last night by DR.. Mills
led to the conclusion that death result
ed from morphine poisoning but the
supposition is that Kirk had nothing to
do with the administering of the drug
but that Adams took an overdose of
the medicine left by the physicians
The verdict returned by the jury was
that death resulted from the effect of
narcotic poison, administered by an I'M
known person.

many in competition with the output of
the horse meat canneries and slaugh-
ter houses of that country. The bicy-
Gle, too. has in great degree usurped
the place of the horse among pleasure
loving people. The horse, il is thus ap-
parent has in measure been super
seeded by science, and in some quarters
II has been questioned whether he ever
deserved the place in our affections he
has held so long, and whether he is
really so intelligent as we have believ-
ed him to be. He has been written
down as a crotchety. timid, unclean,
and unexpeditious animal, with mani
fold diseases, tender of hoof and body
with faults which, once acquired, are
never shaken off, and with a compare
lively short life of usefulness when his
first cost and the cost of feeding and
care are considered. The man who is
enthusiastic about cycling has for our
ancient friend only sneers and jibes as
he scorches madly by on a smooth bit
of macadam. The man of science points
exultantly to ponderous tables of sta
tistics proving that electricity and ca
bles have driven the horse off nine rail-
ways out of ten and have opened the
field for unlimited capital in the con-
struction of roads with rapid transit
facilities which were impossible in the
horse era, and which have caused cit
les and towns to take on a wonderful
expansion. One tabulation, which is
said TO be authoritative. informs us
that there are in the United States

10, 1868 are operated by electricity, 1914
by horses, and 632 by cable. The capt.

DUST FROM THE MILL
Activity in the Upper End of the
Bitter Root.
THE SIGNS ARE VERY GOOD
Excavating for the Foundation of
the New Hotel-More Accom-
mediation RequIred-Sum-
mer Not Yet at Hand.

Hamilton, March Observation-Disclosures
ing the fact that the spring season is
not yet fairly upon us, still there is a
marked increase in business activity in
the upper end of the Bitter Root valley
The mill began operating Tuesday at
noon, working day shift, and will not
put on the night crew until the latter
part of the month. quite a large num-
Der of men assembled in town awaiting
the starting up of the mill, and very
naturally some were disappointed in
not being given employment the first
day. Those who were not employed
have, however, concluded to wait until
the night crew is set to work, and when
the mill does begin to run a full force
there will be but very few men in town
who are not employed.
All the hotels and boarding houses in
town have for the past week been
crowded to overlooking and IL has been
a somewhat difficult matter to provide
visitors with lodgings. Hamilton is be-
ginning to feel the need of a new hotel,
or rather greater hotel accommodations
and IL is with much satisfaction that
the citizens watch the force of work.
men engaged in excavating for the
foundation of the new hotel. The gen.
eral talk about town is to the effect
and ready for the entertainment of
guests by Aug. 1, and that when COM
pleted II will, in service. be second to
none in the state. Although the town
is even now quite lively, there are so
many improvements contemplated dur
ing the summer that business men in
sist that this is a dull season compared
to what IL will be later on. But be that
as II may; the citizens have every rea-
son to feel satisfied with the outlook
and they are satisfied.
Next week Hamilton will be quite
gay socially. On Monday evening a
ball will be given at Hotel Hamilton
and on Tuesday evening the Copper
and Green club" composed of attaches
of the Bitter Root Stock farm, will en-
terrain their friends with a reception
at the Lucas opera house. Dancing will
be the principal feature of the evenings
entertainment; music for the occasion
being furnished by the Hamilton Man
dolin club.
