DERIsION AND sCORN.
For Those Who Speak Against Popular
Habits.

One hundred years ago, ministers ana
aymen alike, were accustomed to use
some spirits as well rs tobacco, and the
one who smoke disparagingly of either OF
the a nous nul1ifers Of good intentions,
was sure to bring down on himself deris-
ion and scorn, but the hard, cold facts
move along in a most uncompromlslng
way, and those who persist in placing
themselves in the road, are ground up
with more or less degree of prompt
tude
The same conditions today surround
tie drug we know of as coffee. The self
respecting individual dislikes to hear Ill
reports of his faVorite beverage. but that
does not alter the fact that the physical
aches, ails and miseries of tens of thous-
ands of good people come from sthe little
suspected coffee pot. Ten days to month
trial without coffee and the use of Pos
tum Food Coffee in its place will prove
the-facts and good bounding health is
we'll worth tho experiment. Postum well
brewed, is delicious and gives one the ex-
act kind of food needed to rebuild the
body in a most perfect manner.

MUSIC AND DRAMHs
THE GOVERNORS.

Ward and Vokes presented the farce OIL
tIhe Governors in three acts at Inc
Jefferson last evening to very large au-
di.nos The piecs is called farce, but
a farce strictly interpreted, is one-act
pisoe. Astounding in humor. In 1.-The
Governors" horse play takes the place of
wit and slang that of humor. But for
all that the play evidently pleased the
audience for there was great laughter,
opnlause and the curtain called after
each act. Like all pieces of Its kind
the plot amounts TO nothing. 1t is the
variety business that is introduced in
which the play relies. A good deal of
this variety business was very good and
the people engaged in it very clever.
This was especially tho case with Johnny
Page, in his acrobatio feats. Ward and
Vokes as the two governors, especially
in the famous specially Percy ana
Harold" and the DAILY sisters. The sing
ing and dancing were excellent, especial
ly Miss Daly's ''Sadie," with chorus, and
the quartette in the solo and chorus from
Mariana The "tough girl' dance
by the company at the end OF the 1lrsT
act elected shrieks of laughter. The piece
was prettily staged and well costumed.
It will be repeated tonight and bargain
matinee given this afternoon.
SPEARS COMEDY co.
Yesterday, at Portland Theatre, Spear S
Comedy Company produced "Rob Roy
at the matinee, and ''Faust" in the even
ing. At the performance of 'Faust" the
scenic effects and the costuming were
excellent Mr.. Bennett gave very tax
ing Mephisto, graceful, cynical and ma
lignaut. Miss Clayton's Marguerite
was simple, loyab1e and natural MT.
Morey was manly and fearful as faust.
Mr. Gilbert was an acceptable Vantlne'
and Miss Marshall was amusing as Dame
Martha, and also effective in the part OF
Sycorax.
The speciaIties between the acts were
warmly appIauded. Today the last TWO
performances by this company Will be
oiyen. At the matinee Little MISS
.Johnstone' will be presented, and IN the
evening 'fIvan's OATH There will
doubtless be crowded audiences at both
performances.

sEAMAN,s REA DING ROOM.

They thronged the Seamen's reading
and recreation rooms on Fore street last
evening and soon after eight O'Clock only
standing room and precious little of that
was to lie had. They came from oil the
steamers in port, from boarding houses
and wharves to the number OF nearly three
hundred to listen to the singing contest
In which the principal contestants were
y. o. Flaherty of the Labrador. Green
wood of the Monaghan, George Allen OF
the Labrador, Alexander Cafferty OF the
4ibernian, James O'Conner, George
Baxter and Mill of the Labrador and
MecDermott.
The programme of vocal and instru-
mental numbers was very entertaining
and the building fairly shook with the
appIause which at times greeted the
different performers. There was much
rivalry, but it was all good natured, and
no one doubted for moment that the
award was just which gave McDermott
the first prize, ''two woolen vests" His
"Alabama Coon" and Monday Meet
Mary Jane" were encored five times. The
second prize, silver mounted piccolo,
went to FIeherty, while a consolation
prize, harmonica and half pound of tea,
was awarded Geo. Allen of the Labrador.
Mr.. Allen of Cressy, Jones and Allen
kindly entertained the audience with
graphophone selections and at the close OF
the musical entertainment coffee and
buns were served to all of the sailors in
attendance and heartily enjoyed amid
scenes of jollity, story telling, dancing,
iie solo and the good time was kept up to
a late hour of the night.

DO 1T YOURSELF

You can tell Just as well as a physician
whetheryour kidneys are diseased or healthy.
The way to do is to take a bottle or glass tum-
bier and fin it with urine. If there is a
sedimcnt-a powder-like substance-at the
bottom after standing day and night, there
is something wrong with the kidneys. An
other sure sign of disease is "a desire to urinate
often, and still another sign is pam in the
back. If urine stains linen there is no doubt
that the kidneys are affected.
Any and all diseases of the kidneys liver,
bladder and of the urinary passages and CON
stpatiou of the bowels are cured by DR..
David KemedY's Favorite Remedy. There
is no question about its being the best and
surest medicine in the world for such troubles,
1t quickly relieves and cures inability to hold
urine, and people, young or old, who take it
are not compelled to get up u number OF
times during the night. For putting an end
to that srading pain experienced in passing
urine. nothing is SO good as DIR. David Ken
ncd's iHvorite Remedy. 1t corrects the bad
cft cts of whiskcy and beer; is pleasant to
thc taste aud does not seem to he medicise
.uIall Diseases of the kidneys and bladder
often require the use Of instruments to push
hacl, the sandy matter so the urine can be

should be taken without further delay or the
disease may prove fatal. 1t is sold for one
dollara bottle at all drug stores. 1t is well

Reported That Another Bombardment
of Gambia L. Imminent.
Athens, Sept 10.-News was received
here from Gambia late yesterday after
noon that another bombardment was
imminent The fire continues. Four
hundred deaths are already attested.
Martial law has been proclaimed.
The foreign admirals have requested
the powers to send "A battalion each to
reinforce the international garrison.
on the request of the admirals the
Cretan executive committee has sue
ceeded in inducing the Christian in
surgents in Gambia to retire outside
the cordor.
Djevad Pasha, the Turkish military
commandant, says he has given the
Turkish military authorities at Can
dia strict instructions to assist in
maintaining order He declares that
the Bashi Bazouks are responsible fol
the recent outbreaks.
Yesterday q additional bodies o'
Christians were discovered under tn,
smoulderng ruins at Gambia.
The British admiral, ii Is said, ha'
demanded the disarmament of tn,
Mussulmans.
The daughter of the massacre'
English vice consol, with her baby, ha
disappeared. 1t Is supposed that boil
have been massacred.
Horrible stories of atroclty are tolt
by the refugees from Gambia. They say
the Bahai Bazouks cut open the bodies
of their Christian victims on the frs
day of the outbreak and threw thu
entrails into the flames of the burnini
houses. They hurled the British vic'
consul bodily into the flames, shouting
"Now let the English come help him.

FINANCE AND TRADE.
The Volume of business Larger Than
1t Ever Has Been.

The Volume of business Larger Than
1t Ever Has Been.
New York, Sept. 1O.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly reveicw of trade says:
The volume of business is larger than
II ever has been. Investors across the
water have caught the cue and their
purchases of American bonds and
stocks have been heavy for several
weeks.
Wheat has been about one cent high
er in price for spot, with western re-
ceipts only about as large as those OF
last year for the week No doubt some
farmers have learned that 1t is poor
business to hold back for higher prices,
and yet very many are doing it, and so
are making inevitable a more disas-
trous decline in prices after a time.
Corn is a shade higher, one estimate
promising only 1,750,O0O bushels.
The cotton year has closed, accord
ing to the Financial Chronicle with
a yield of 11.1SO.96 bales in 1897, of
which 7GiG0S5 We're exported, 1,SJj OOL
were consumed in northern mills, L.
227,939 In southern mills, 32G,0I9 were
added TO northern mill stocks, and 9S,-
991 to commercial stocks. 1t is but
fair to say that the Financial Chronicle
makes no calculation of the quantity
produced, but not marketed. which The
New orleans Cotton Exchange reckons
at 100000 bales.

almost instantly. The couple had reg

hour before the tragedy occurred as

The motive for the shooting Is not

orable career in the service of the

loss is irreparabIe, but we hope that
the assurance of their compassion
may help him to bear it.
