Augustus Thomas Great Play,
 Alabama"

Will be presented at the opera house Tuesday night. With the merits of the "Alabama" company the theater-goers of this city are familiar Nearly all of its members are actors of established and nation. al reputation, and most of them are popular faYorites i'll this city. Mr. Thomas play has unquestionably placed him in the front ranks of the country. It's success In the east has been unqualified, and it has been universally accepted there as the distinctly American play Colonel Preston is an old southerner, who, l5 years after the war, still hates the north. He has double reasons, for not only has his cause been defeated, but his only son, Harry, gave allegiance to the union and fought on that side, and is supposed to have been killed The old man still lives on the old plantation at Talladega. A railroad is to run through the little town, and it's projection brings to the place northern railroa1 man, Captain Davenport, accompanied by young northern surveyor. The former, who is in reality the suppos- ed dead son of Colonel Preston, con ceals his identity for some time, fear ing that his father still cherishes re- sentiment. The play opens in the house of Mrs. Page, who, before marrying Danny Page, had loved Harry Preston, but they had been separated by cruel parents. Young Preston has also married after wards, but after leaving for the north his wife had died and left q child, Carrie Preston, of whose ex- istence her father had mp to this time been kept in ignorance. These threads of the story are deftly inter woven and gathered up in a logical and coherent way in the final scene.
 The play will be presented by the Clemement Bainbridge Company, which includes Mir. Bainbridge, Fred Mower, L. P. Hicks, Harry NJ. Allen, Robert Connese, r. ". Kensil, w. N. Wadworth. Francis Nelson, Ethel Irving, Helen Weathersby, Florence Crosby and Kate Dooling.

GeIs In tereSted.

4 great deal is said and written nowadays about the commercial wonders accomplished by adver- tisers.
 The fact IS that as much of the success attendant upon advertising is due to the influence exerted upon the advertisers as upon the adver- tisemant reader. EA
 The business man who advertises. in his search for favorable points In his business to announce, soon gets into the habit of increasing the number Of these favorable points. He becomes more courteous and accommodating to his customers. He learns to give them just as much for just as little money as he can. He gets into the habit of studying his customers interests as well as his own. He uneonsciously gets in the way of doing Ehis in the little things as well as in the big.
 This-the self-educating effects one reason why advertising pays Charles Austin Bates.

Special Correspondence.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The new Cabinet is being rapidly made up, there being only two positions not yet filled. These members have been selected as follows: Secretary of State, John Sherman. of Ohio; See retary of the Treasury, Lyman J. Gage, of Illinois; Secretary of War, John D. Long, of Massachusetts Secretary of Agriculture, James Will son, of Iowa; and Secretary of the Interior, Joseph MeKenna, of Cali fornia.
 It seems from the makeup, as indicated above, that Mr. Mckinley has given New York and Pennsylya- nia the go-by; it has been long time since these States were ignored in the naming of new Cabinets. Mir. Mckinley seems to be making him self solid with the Vest, and evil dently intends to let the East take care of itself.

He Has Won Two Battles and Has Challenged any Lightweight In
 the World

In Pine Bluff sporting circles Billey O'DonnoeIl is a great favor ite, both as a pugilist and a man. for in the prize ring he is invincible, while out of it the quietest, peaceable and most unoffensive men ever met with. He treats everybody with courtesy and fairness, hence his popularity wherever he goes. Our readers will be glad to know that he has been very successful in New York since he left here. He has won two great fights, and has now issued a challenge to meet any 122- pound man in the world. OfODon- nell the New York Sun says
 "Billey O'DonnelI of Memphis, who, since his arrival in the East, has won two fights, says he is ready to box any 122-pounder for a purse. Peter Maher's faith in Jack Hanni- gan as a fighter remains unshaken, despite the fact that Hannigan was whipped on Saturday night by Billy O'Donnell Maher says that Han nigan is finish fighter and has good recuperative powers. He is ready to match him against any lad in his class.

open session of the Senate.

There are two changes of import ance in the treaty as it was first pre- sented to the Senate; the first ex- cluding questions of foreign and do- nestle politics from arbitration and eliminating King Oscar as an um- pire. Article has also been changed. Tins article provides for the filing of objections to q jurisdiction of the arbitral tribunal, but as modified, it harmonizes with the eamendmends as adopted by the committee. The vote in the committee whereby the oppo- sition to ratification was shown to come from the silver men on the com mittee, irrespective of party, has led to the assertion that in the Senate the contest will be waged along the same line, because of hostility to English financial ideas. The sltua- ton is also complicated by the new treaty relative to the Alaskan bound ary.
