STATE HIGHWAYS.

Highway Commissioner Macdonald has sent the following circular to se- lectmen in regard to roads: "All un- finished work on macadam, telford or gravel roads you will please notify the contractors on the work to begin to finish the work on the fifteenth day of April. I believe the ground will have entirely settled back by that time, and the sun will be sufficiently high to as- sist in hardening the roads, and we will be somewhat through with spring rains. You will kindly notify the con- tractor on your work, and that he may make preparations to begin on or about that time. I do not care to have con- tractors begin earlier, as the work would be liable to suffer-"

NEW MEDICAL DISCOVERY.
APositive Cure for Dyspepsia.

This may read as though we were putting it a little strong because it is generally thought by the majority of people that Dyspepsia in it's chronic form is incurable, or practically so But we have long since shown that Dys- pepsia is curable, nor is it such a diffi- cult matter as it first appears.
 The trouble with Dyspeptics is that they are continually dieting, starving themselves, or going to opposite ex- tremes or else deluging the already over burdened stomach with "bitters," !" "after dinner pills" etc., which invar- iably increase the difficulty even if in some cases they do give a slight tenn porary relief Such treatment of the stomach simply makes matters worse. What the stomach wants is a rest. Now how can the stomach become rested recuperated and at the same time the body nourished and sustained.
 This is the great secret and this is also the secret of the uniform success of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. This is a comparatively new remedy, but it's success and popularity leaves no doubt as to it's merits.
 The tablets will digest the food any way, regardless of condition of stom- ach.
 The sufferer from dyspepsia accord ing to directions is to eat an abundance of good, wholesome food and use the tablets before and after each meal and the result will be that the food will be digested no matter how bad your dys- pepsia may be, because as before stat ed, the tablets will digest the food even if the stomach is wholly inactive. To illustrate our meaning plainly, if you take 1,S00 grains of meat, eggs or or dinary food and place it in a tempera- ture of 9S degrees, and put with it one of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets it will digest the meat or eggs almost as per- fectly as if the meat was enclosed with in the stomach.
 The stomach may be ever so weak yet these tablets will perform the work of digestion and the body and brain will be properly nourished and at the same time a radical, lasting cure of dyspepsia will be made because the much abused stomach will be given, to some extent, a much needed rest. Your druggist will tell you that of the many remedies advertised to cure dyspepsia none Of them has given so complete and general satisfaction as Stuart $ Dyspepsia Tablets and not least in im- portance in these hard times is the fact that they are also the cheapest and, give the most good for the least money.

Polls Wonderland Theatre.


 The possibilities of travesty in the charge of thorough artists are display ed by Edmund Hayes and Miss Emily Lytton, who to large and delighted audiences are presenting "Ingomar" at the Wonderland theater. The con- structor of the travesty did the work well, borrowing a striking situation from the tragedy and turning it into tragic comedy with great success MT. Hayes as "Ingomar" is ludicrous- ly perfect, and Miss Lytton ably SUD- ports him. MT. Hayes work in the scene from Sir Henry Irving's play, "The Bells" with which he closes his act, is one of the best pieces of legiti- mate acting on the stage to-day.
 A first-class olio attends the feature this week. Miss Evaline Brittin, the female baritone, is a very popular and winsome artist and sings well. The Karno Trio, a transoceanic novelty, is screamingly funny, full of quick moves and it is attended by excellent mando- lin music. The climax by the trio, in which the punching bag is introduced, brings down the house.
 Smith and Campbell in Measure for Measure" exchange a fire of lively gags that are new, bright and very funny. Leroy and Clayton with an Irish sketch and Barnes and Sisson with a funny skit that has fine danc- ing and songs, the Franciola sisters, the Marinellas in a marvellous act with the Cuban rings and Harris and liar low complete the bill.
 Prices 10 and 20 cents: ladies in the afternoon 10 cents.

DEATH OF DAY BELL.

The Well Bred and Handsome Black
 Trotting Stallion Owned by B. P. Mo
 Kenna.
 The trotting stallion Day Bell, owned by Eugene P. McKenna of this city, died on Monday at the training stable of Charles H. Cook in Centerville. Day Bell was foaled in 1882 at the stock farm of Senator Leland Stanford of Men1o Park, California. This farm is one of the most noted breeding estab- lshments in the world and was for merly the home of the far-famed Elec- tioneer, sire of more standard record horses than any horse that ever lived Arion, 2:071a, whose two-year-old rec ord of 2:10% astonished the world of horsemen, after which Arion was sold for $125,000; Palo Alto, 2:0S%; Sunol, the first horse to beat the trotting rec ord of Maud S., 2.0S&, and hundreds of other celebrated horses.
 Day Bells sire was Palo Alto, 2:0S%, one of the best sons of Electioneer, 125, by the renowned Hambletonian Palo Altos dam was Dame Winnie, running bred by Planet, he by Revenue. Day Bells dam was the great brood mare Beautiful Bells (whose projeny have commanded fabulous prices for many years), by The Moor, the best son of Clay Pilot. The second dam of Day Bell was Minnehaha, by Stevens Bold Chief.
 Day Bell was formerly purchased at $500 by Edward A. Manice of Wind- rush Farm, Stockbridge, Mass, who consigned the trotter to one of the re- cent Fasig sales at New York city, where he was purchased at auction by MT. McKenna at $650. A few days ago MT. McKenna refused an offer of $2, 800 from D. Cameron of North Carolina for Day Bell. This handsome black trot- ter was the sire of about fifty foals of 1896 and 1897 that are very promis- ing Day Bell was entered in the Char ter Oak park races to be decided this summer. The owner will have much sympathy on account of his loss.

UGLY SLASH WITH A KNIFE.
Almost Severed the Thumb of ApzeIo
Roma "Wednesday Night.

A drinking party among a number Of
Italians in the 300 block in Center street
ended in a stabbing affray Wednesday
night. Angelo Roma, the man injured,
was brought to the Lackawanna hos
pital yesterday morning. His wounds
are not in q vital part, but that was
not the fault OF Joseph Joseph, who
welded the knife
Romas right thumb was nearly sew
cred from the hand, and he will hard
ly be able to use 1t again. The knife
cut to the bone and severed the blood
vessels and nerves at the base of the
thumb There are few slight
scratches on his arm, and the breast
Of his coat is hacked. Josephi is a
blacksmith and the more powerful Of
the two. The interference of the other
men in the party saved Roma from a
more dangerous stabbing. Roma is a
lahorer.
They gathered at the house Of Roma's
brothcr-in-law, and disposed of several
cans of beer. After the drink got con-
troll of their senses they engaged in an
argument over some trivial matter, and
then began to fight.

Briggs Pianos

Perry Bros.
Gentlemen: Four years ago l bought
a Briggs Piano. 1t has been in almost
constant use since then, | giving les
sons uuon it and using it for my pri-
vate practice also. Frequently it has
been used six and eight hours in one
day. Notwithstanding all this hard
usage it is at present practically as
good as new. Its power of standing
in tame is marvellous, and its tone and
action first-Class. have noticed the
same excellent qualities in such Briggs
Pianos as several of my pupils pos
sess. Yours truly,
