The New York News has this tc
say of Agnes Wallace Villa in
"The World Against Her" which
will appear before Logan aud
ience Thursday Dec. 3lst:
"Mr. Frank Harvey has not only
written a powerful melodrama In
"The World Against Her." produc-
ed at the PEOPLES Theatre last even
ing, but has admiralty suited Ag-
mes Wallace Villa in the role of
the snffei ing heroine, Madge Carl
ton. The story is Of English
country and London life, and L.
very clevorly constructed, the
wrongs and sufferings of young
wife, suspected of infidelity by her
husband and cast off, and her SUBJ
sequent struggles to keep her child
from him, form the main idea Of
the plot. The roue villain who
planned the trick and couple of
good hearted show people of the
Crummels type, who succor Madge
Carlton, are prominent. The situa-
tions are well arranged and the
climaxes effective, and the atten-
tion OF the vsst audience last even
ing was held from beginning 20
close, only interrupted by repeated
roars OF laughter ut the clever CO.
medy and we'll deserved applause
at the strong scenes. The play is
neart-touching, humorous, pict-
uresque, and melodramatic, and
will no doubt, prove another money
maker. At the end of Act III,
where Bob Millett, the Snowman,
seemingly betrnys Madge by Civ
ing up her child to the detectives,
the house grew wild with excite
ment, and the delight over the
defiIy arranged surprise. At the
end Of the play-the scene of the
cOiner's cellar-the interest grew
until the set to between the de-
ceived husband and the roue,
created furore such IS stamped
"The World Against Her" a big
success, and it will undoubtedly
draw big houses the rest Of the
week, as the advance sales are very
large.

THE Cincinnati Enquirer does
not seem to think that, the great
'I am" from Mansfield, o, stands
much show Of getting a seat in
Uncle Sani's new band wagon
which after the 4th of March 1897,
will be known as McKinley's Cabi-
net, as the following pertinent
editorial shows:
at may be predicted with con-
siderable certainty that no matter
how Mr., McKinley's Cabinet may
be composed Senator Sherman will
not fill the place of Secretary OF
State. His Jingoism in the last,
and in the present, session of Con-
gress and his want of knowledge
of the laws that govern nations In
their intercourse with each other
betray his utter unfitness for such
a position. BY his course as Chair
man of the Senate Committee on
Foreign Relations he has shown
what mischief he could do il placed
in charge Of the department Of
State. l. is II matter of some sur
prise that his name should be
seriously discussed in connection
with the post"

A Gentle Hint TO HaIf-Hearted Ad-
y0rtisers.

Popular Science News gets down
10 the scientific basis of publicity
when il declares: at costs as much
to be stingy in advertising as to be
extravagant." There are, doubt
less, certain lines of business in
which IL may not pay to advertise.
There is no business, however, in
which, given :he necessity Of ad-
vertising, IL pays to advertise in a
listless, hAlf-hearted manner. The
advertiser must have confidence
in himself IN order to inspire con-
fideDce IN others. 1t does not fol-
low that he should advertise ex-
travagantly; but IT does follow that
he should advertise persistently," :"
II you would succeed, keep your
business before the public. II you
do not advertise your wares. how

Consumption Can be Cured.

t. A. Slocum, NJ. c., the great
Chemist and Scientist, will send
free, to the Afflicted, three bottles
of his newly discovered remedies
to cure Consumption and all Lung

Nothing could be fairer, more
philanthropic or carry more joy to
the afflicted, than the offer OF T. A
Slocum, NJ. O., of New York City.
Confident that he has discovered
a reliable cure for consumption and
all bronchial, throat and lung dis
eases, general decline and weak
ness, loss OF flesh and all conditions
OF wasting, and to make its great
merits known, ne will send, free,
three bottles to any reader Of The
Ohio Democrats who may be suf-
fering.
Already this "new scientific
course of medicine" has perman-
emily cured thousands of apparent
Iy hopeless cases.
The doctors considers 10 his re-
ligiOus duty-a duty which he owes
to humanity-to donate his IN
fallible cure.
He has proved the dreaded con-
sumption to be durable disease
beyond any doubt, and has on file
in his American and European
laboratories testimonials OF exper-
ience from those benefited and
cured, in all parts Of the world.
Don't delay until 1t is too late.
Consumption, uninterrupted, means
speedy and certain death. Ad-

THIS STORY.
On the bank Of the Cape Fear river,
and some 80 miles from where il
clnptes its waters into the broad At
lantic, stands the old, old city of Will
mlngton; so old, in fact, that the build
ing that was the headquarters of Lord
CORVALLIS when the town (for VIII
mington was then a town Of no small
importance) was occupied by the Brit
ish soldiery during the revolution of
177O, though still standing (at least as
to its frame), has Of necessity, as age
and inclcment weather caused its roof
und sides to wear and rot away, been
recovered and the frame rcclothcd with
Carolma's pine many times; but be-
Meath the covering of to-day stands the
same old frame and in the same location
us it stood in the troublous days Of the
American revolution,
True, the time-worn floors that were
pressed in turn by the feet Of Corn

DEMOCRATS WILL VOTE FOR M'KINLET.
Chicago. Sept. 1s-Secretary Of State Hinrich-
SEN who is also chairman OF the Democratic state
Central Committee, said yesterday when asked as
10 his course as a member OF the State Board OF
Review regarding the placing Of the gold Demo-
cratic tickets the official ballot under the cap

The Secretary Of State also intmated that ne
intended 10 watch the Republican Election Com

might place the silver Democratic ticket in an
improper way on the ballot compared with the
gold Democratic ticket.

Committee was not disturbed over the report Of
Mr. Hinrichsen's position. lie said: IF our ticket
goes on the ballot free silver will lose half vote.
IF II does not go on tho silver Democrats will lose
thefull vote. because it will then go to Mckinley.
