THE COMEDIAN RESIGNED, TOO
The Wilbur Opera Company Came Near
Losing Harvey.

And still the troubles of the Wilbur
Opera Company, which made such II
great hit here during Fair week, increase.
In Atlanta they lost their prettiest
chorus girl, Miss Ripley. In Savannah
Miss Poole, Miss Kirwin's understudy,
was dropped Then Harvey resigned too.
and it took a raise in salary to get him
back.
Touching Miss Poole's dismissal the
Morning News contains the following
gossip that will be of interest to RAJ
eigh theatre-goers:
THE trouble with Miss Poole is said
to have come very near causing a rup
ture in the company. She and the come
dian. the little fellow who proved such
n favorite with Savannah audiences,
were good friends, and the latter was
nettled at her dismissal by Miss Kirwin
He told several people that he intended
sending in notice of his intention of
leaving the company in two weeks, and
this intention was carried out Saturday
night He had been expecting to send
in his notice for some time, as he wac
dissatisfied with the small salary he was
receiving. His action was FASTENED by
the dismissal of his young friend, the
chorus girl. A satisfactory arrange
ment was made between the manage
ment and himself, however, by which his
salary is to be raised, and he Is to &C
with the Wilbur Opera Company, now
playing in New York State. The come
dian went down to Tampa, where a two
weeks enga cement is to be played.
1.-The story of professional Jealousy hav-
ing been the cause of the dismissal OF
Miss Poole still receives credence. 1t
is said that Miss Kirwin has feared that
Miss Poole might develop abilities that
would mark her as fit successor to the
honors that have been borne for some
time by the prima donna.
THE directress of the company, Miss
Hamilton, who Yields large influence,
said that tle idea of jealousy on the
part of Miss Kirwin is preposterous.
There is also talk that the dismissal
of Miss Poole grew out of her being
the recipient of too much attention from
other sources. The standard of pro-
priety fixed for the conduct of the
chorus girls is said to be on plane
rather above that usually found in
opera companies. Miss Poole admitted
that she had been out once after the
play. which was itself a violation of the
rules.
"Stories reached the ears of the man.
agement of two or three valuable pres
ents having been accepted by Miss
Poole. and that seemed to have had
weight in the sending forth of the man
date that severed her connection with
the company"

These things seem to be greatly in
creasing of late, and without any APP
parent cause. We see more men who
ack vigoF than ever before. We meet
more women who seem brokendown thar
III the past Surely there must be Il
'ause for adj this-and there is.
These troubles can arise from but one
,ause, namely: disordered kidneys or
Urinary organs. Indeed. it is now adj
aEitted that the region of the lower body
IS the prime source of most physical ills.
When the Kidneys become diseased the
blood becomes poisoned and all the
troubles such as slpeelessness, lack of
appetite, nervelessness, TestlessnesS, tired
md Respondent feeling follow in its
wake.
The truth is, people are not we'll; but
they should be, and they can be if they
would only take the means OF recovery
that are near at hand. In writing upon
lhis subject, DIR. r. A. Gum, Dean and
Professor of Surgery of the United
States Medical College, New York, says:
''In large class of ailments where the
blood is in an unhealthy state,-where
here is no evidence of organic mischief
yut where the general health is depleted,
ut IuCt SttdtONs iltt NOHOtCAis WI
shutting the bilious condition-the adj
'antage gained from the use of Warner
Safe Cure is remarkable. / find also that
n Brights disease it seems to act as a
,olvent Of albumen; to soothe and heal
infiamed membranes, and wash out cpl
3helial debris which block up the urine
fearing tubes"
1t is undoubtedly true that Ameri-
;ans, as people, are in a more or less
serious condition, and that there are
complaints (which have become national
diseases. But it is also true that modern
science has provided an adequate remedy
which is able to fully control it and
supplant sickness and misery by health
ind happiness.

In addition to the hearing of the con
tempt cases and the answers made by
Col. Andrews to the eight subpoenas or
dering him to furnish certain informal
ton in regard to passes and freight dis
ordinations, the following other business
was yesterday transacted by the Rail
road Commission:
A petition was read asking that the
Southern and Seaboard Air Line be cam
PEELED to make connection here with their
morning trains, going toward Norfolk
At present the Southern tain arrives

by the Commission to further extend the
time till the sale of the Cape FearSand

mined.
Superintendent Tree, of the Western
Union Telegraph Company, was given
until February Goth, to show cause why
he should not establish TN uptown of
fee at Morganton.
Notice was given the Commission by
the people at Bahama station, on The
Lynchburg and Durham Railroad, that
the depot at that place has hecn discon-
tinued. They ask that it be opened
again. The matter was referred to the
railroad, calling attention to the fact
that the closing of the depot was illegal
and ordering that it be opened again.

AFTER THE GIDEON AGAIN.
Then Embarrassing Questions are Asked
About Passes to Judges.

Besides the summons to show cause
why he should not be punished for con-

on Col Andrews, which he was called
on by the Railroad Commission yesterday
to answer.
These subpoenas were in substance as
follows:

Notwithstanding repeated efforts to
ret the Railroad Commission to construe
the anti-pass law, it has not yet been
done. The railroads are anxious to
know exactly to whom they may law
fully extend the courtesy of free trans
portation, and they have asked the Com
mission to let them know. As the mat
ter stands now they are putting their
own construction ON the law, and later
Il they are found to be violating it, they
will simply plead that they were doing
their best to comply with it, having
failed to get ruling on it from the
Railroad Commission.
II understand" said Chairman Cald-
well, speaking of passes yesterday, that
the Charlotte News prints a statement
to the effect that the Railroad Commits
sion has passed an order prohibiting the
Southern Railway and Seaboard Air
Line from giving free transportation to
the employees of these roads and men,
bers of their families when living dis
tant from their work. There is absO-
lutely no truth in the statement. No
such resolution has even been discussed
by the Commission.
''Also in reply to a statement in a
Salisbury paper saying that / charged
DIR. Abbott with voting with Mr.. Pear
'on and myself, and talking another way
to the newspaper men, my recollection
IS that DIR. Abbott, in a majority Of his
votes, had been with us and that | had
seen from the newspapers, il they were
to be believed, that Dr. Abbott had
talked some down the street. No re-
lection was intended on DIR. Abbott"
Touching this same matter, Dr. Alb
bott said he also desired to make a
statement He said:
Il have never at any time, that / re-
member, intimated to any member of the
press how / was going to vote on
any question that was coming before
the Commission, and / certainly have
never talked to the newspaper men one
way and voted different way,
think all the gentlemen of the Raleigh
press will bear me out i'm this state
ment.'
