Kentucky Irish American. (Louisville, Ky.) 1898-1968, 1898-12-10

Commencing Monday night the Avenue
will present that well-known and popular
team, Clifford and Huth, in their initial
starring tour in farce comedy. They will
be seen in "a High Born Lady," which
is clean, laughable and full of absorbing
interest, for it has an attractive plot,
clean-cut and snappy dialogue and anus
ing complications. Last season Clifford
and HUH were featured with the
"Courted In Court Company, and were
decidedly the artistic and laughing sue
cess of the show. 1t is doubtful if any
teams that come to Louisville are more
universally popular among the theater-
going public than they are.

TOO nUcH POLITICS.

The disregard of law, precedent
and order, and the disturbing of the
peace, agitating and exciting the
people, interfering with legislation,
NAV be shrewd politics. but it is an
injury to the interests of the peo--
pie, however much of advantage
may be expected to result to po-
litical party. In West Virginia two
State Senators enlisted as volun-
teers in the army and departed for
the seat of war. Their political
opponents contend that, having &C
cepted commissions in the army
and left the State, the Senators for
feited their seats, and in the recent
election nominated and elected SEN
ators to succeed them.
In Congress Gen. Joseph Wheel
er, being member from Alabama
and also a Major General of volun-
teers in the United States army,
has been notified by Representive
Bailey, of Texas, that he will pro-
test against Wheeler participating
in any way in the proceedings OF
Congress.
Law and precedent are certainly
against the directors in these incl
dents. There has been held to be
a distinction between the volun-
teers and the regular army; that
the volunteer is not a member OF
the army, except as militia, tempo
rarily in emergency, and the &C
Aceptance of commission as an OH
is not an acceptance OF another
~ in the meaning of the law,
does not vacate or forfeit any
the person may hold.

The ''Parisian Widows" which comes
to the Buckingham next week, will be
a combination of variety acts and bur-
lesque features of rare excellence and
worth. The "Parisian Widows" is now
in its second season, but this year it con-
tains all new acting material, scenery
and wardrobe, and is meeting with artis-
tic and financial success at every point it
appears. "a Night On Broadway is to
be the burlesque to conclude the per-
Torrance. This is in three scenes. Miss
Sadie Cushman, Melytha Adams and
Lizzie Van, the noted stage beauties, will
divide the honors among the principal
female roles of the burlesque. Special
scenery, handsome wardrobe and plenty OF
stage novelties abound throughout with a
reckless liberality. Some thirty persons
appear in different forms in the bur-
lesque.

THEATRICALS.

One of the most pleasing performances
thus far presented this season in Louis
vile will be the production of "a
Rogue's Daughter" announced for next
week at the Temple Theater. 1t is a
drama more ON the style of Hazel
Kirke" than any play produced in recent
years-its comedy and emotion so closely
woven as to force tears and laughter al
most in the same breath. The story deals
with clever bank swindler who moves
in the best society, and whose charming
daughter innocently furnishes her father
the means to carry out his schemes. She
is loved by wealthy Englishman, whom
her father tries to rob, but she warns her
lover and he is saved, but, believing her
to be an accomplish, casts her off. His
uncle, an old bachelor, patches up the
trouble, runs the villain to Australia, and
all ends happily. This will be the first
time this clever play has been seen in
this city, and the efforts of Col Meffert
and his excellent company should be re
warded with crowded houses.

The Countess of Edla, the only Ameri-
can girl who even married King, is
diving in the chateau of Contra, near
Lisbon. The Countess was originally
Elise Hensler, and was born in Boston in
1896. After singing in the Park-street
church, Boston, she was sent to Europe
to be educated for the operate stage. She
made her debut at the Royal Opera house
in Lisbon. King Ferdinand immedi-
ately fell in love with her. He asked her
to marry him and she consented. He
bestowed upon her the title of Countess
of Edla, and together they lived an
idyllic existence until the death Of King
Ferdinand in 1885. She was from the
day of her marriage admitted as one Of
noble blood into the home circle Of the
royal family with respect and dignity
that would be hard to find copied By the
most refined millionaires' families either
of Europe or America. This humble
opera singer was received with true aris-
tocratic refinement into the highest circle
that of royalty. The chateau itself is
perfect museum Of rare works Of art

Bright acts by the score have already been billed and there are more to follow from Europe and the first class houses of New York and Boston. Nothing but metropolitan successes will be engaged, and while the shows will be of reasonable length they will not be padded out by poor acts.

lish news which the officers of the Ad-
ministration deem dangerous to be
made public. 1t is the opinion Of the
Cleveland ".Plaindealer' that but for
these few so-called enterprising papers
the mere request of the Government to
refrain from publishing certain news
would have been sufficient Indeed, ii
was sufficient for a time, for when the
Navy Department made such request
it was complied with gladly, save on
the part of these same yellow and un-
considerable papers, and hence the re-
quest had to be converted into a pro-
hibitive order.
Every decent paper in the land ap-
proved that order and compiled with
it. One representative of the yellow
press attempted to evade the order
was detected promptly, and ignomin-
iously punished. That ended the at
tempt to run the blockade of news the
censor maintains. The decent press will
always be found Loyalty at the righ,
hand of the Government, patriotic and

THE LOYAL PRESS.

The Louisville "Courier-Journal" re-
Associated Press in Chicago, the Gen
eral Manager in the course of a dis
cussion about war news, stated that he
had taken upon himself to suppress a
-fhe interest of the Government, which
the association had obtained after great
labor and cost. Instantly, says the
Courier Journal" there went up from
lall over the chamber burst of ap-
splause in approval
This came from newspaper owners
managers, publishers with vast sums
involved in news publishing and press
men with the weightiest responsibility
upon their shoulders. The incident is
cited to show that the newspaper men
of the country not only do not COM
plain OF the war censorship of news
tbut willingly aid and promote it, and
fthat above business patriotism among
these men rises supreme. This goes
ITO show that the self-respecting press
s1s far from being mercenary institu-
ltion.
I True, there are some journals which
place news-getting before all things
and would applaud themselves loudly
vand boast of it, If by any means they

Assuming that the accounts from
Madrid of the stress in the Bank OF
Spain are verify, then the liability OF
the war collapsing suddenly is to be
looked for. Without money Spain can
not carry on the contest. If the Bank
of Spain is crippled, as reported, it is
unlikely that Spanish credit can be ex-
tended for supply Of the munitions of
war. There are some indications out
side of the panic reported, and the de-
cline of securities in the European
market, that Spain is about to be ad-
vised to sue for peace before she loses
the last of her possessions in the West
Indies, and releases her grip wholly up
on the Philippines. The haste Of our
own Government to land upon Porto
Rican shores before Spain yields, indi-
Gates a fear on the part of the Admin
istration that the war will collapse be-
fore we shall have accomplished a foot
ing in Porto Rico. This is indicative, Of
course, of a belief in the soundness of
the policy Of occupying that island,
that Spanish rule in the West Indies
may be ended once for all, and the
waning power be left with no base on
this side from which to continue a rule
that is a century behind the age, and
has the condemnation of every historian
of modern times.

NERVOUS DEPRESSION.
IA TALK WITH MRS. PINKHAM.1 !


A woman with the blues is very un'
comfortable person. She is illogical,
unhappy and frequently hysterical.
The condition of the mind known as
"the blues,' nearly always, with wo-
men, results from diseased organs of
generation.
1t is source of wonder that in this
age of advanced medical science, any
person should still believe that mere
force of will and determination will
overcome depressed spirits and nerv-
business in women. These troubles are
indications of disease.
Every woman who doesn't under
stand her condition should write to
Lynn, Mass, to Mrs. Pinkham for her
advice. Her advice is thorough COM
mon sense. and is the counsel of a
learned woman of great experience.
Read the story of Mrs. F. S. BENNETT,
Westphalia, Kansas, as told in the fol-
lowing letter:
"DEAR Mrs. PINKHAM:-I have suf-
fered for over two years with falling,
enlargement and liberation of the
womb, and this spring, being in such
a weakened condition, caused me to
flow for nearly six months. Some time
ago, urged by friends, wrote to you
for advice. After using the treatment
which you advised for short time,
that terrible flow stopped.
81 am now gaining strength and
flesh, and have better health than /
have had for the past ten years. /
wish to say to all distressed, suffer
ing women, do not suffer longer, when
there is one SO kind and willing to
aid YOU"

pound is woman's remedy for wo-
mans ills. More than a million wo-
uen have been benefited by it.

They are singing the Star Spangled
Banner" over in Canada at public en-
tertainments, and the audiences rise to
their feet when they do it, too. Is it
not odd that over the line the patriotic
fervor should have spread, and that
John Bull is growing purple in the face
'twixt God Save the Queen" Amer
ica," Rule Britannia" and the star
Spangled Banner?" Does any one on
the face of this green earth expect to
hear a Frenchman round out the per-

German audience screeching to reach
the top notes Of the Marseilles? 2
