...AMUSFMENTS..

When Digby Bell, some three years ago,
stepped from a comedy-opera clown suit
into the frock coat and high hat Of a
country doctor to try his hand at comedy
drama, not a few shook their heads, only
to nod them a few months later In affirma-
ton Of their spoken Il told you So and
II knew he would succeed" Since that
time no one has doubted Mr.. Bells talent
as a comedian who has seen him In the
role Of DR.. Willow in 1.-THE Hoosier Doc
tor" which opened a three nights en-
gagement at the Boyd last evening. The
piece Is SO well known as to need little
description. 1t portrays a type OF pro-
vincial urban life not uncommon In the
west central portion OF our country and
affords ample scope for character study.
It will hardly stand the fire Of critical
analysis, but the heart warns to its hero
and even to poor old grandma in her ex-
tremity. 1t touches the coolest, and what
greater praise can be said than this? The
numerous characters are we'll sketched,
the scenes presented with striking verb
similitude and the humor Is such as to be
infectious, and more than one good laugh
Is produced.
Laura Joyce Bell shares the honors with
her husband, as she has a character study
In the part Of the grandma that Is as re-
markable as that Of DR.. Willow, and she
brings 1t out in a commendable manner.
Charles e. Bunnell assumes the thankless
role Of Fred Dalrympie, the drunken, good
for-nothing husband, in 90 natural a way
rs to lead almost to the suspicion that
he studied 1t. Miss Elsie Esmond as Martha,
Margaret Owen as Harriet, Viola Miles
as Alvira and Emma Butler as Mrs. Bunce
all get as much out OF their parts as could
be asked. Baby Gertrude, who plays a
chlld's part. is remarkably free from the
faults that commonly beset stage children.
The whole company is a uniformly ex-
cellent one and with Mr.. Bells ability to
direct Is bound to win favor with any au-
dience. The piece will continue this even
ing, Wednesday matinee and evening.

Do Not Give Up in De-

For ages it has been thought
that Cancer is %incurable, and
those so unfortunate as to have
this dreadful affection have con-
sidered themselves beyond hope of
recovery The doctors are alb
solutely unable to afford any re-
lief, and the poor sufferer might
we'll consider himself on the way
to an early grave.
1t is now easy to Q why the
doctors have failed to cure Cancer.
Their theories have been all wrong,
and hence their treatment mis-
directed. They have made the
mistake of thinking that by cut
ting out the sore or ulcer, known
as Cancer, the disease would be
gotten rid of, and the patient re.
stored to health. But the cruel
knife accomplishes nothing, fol-

REAL ESTATE MEN DIVIDED
Exchange Debates the Exposition,
but Fails to Come to Any COnclu-
sion in Regard to the Matter.

The Real Estate exchange discussed
reasons for and against another exposition
at a meeting yesterday afternoon and ended
by p%ostponing action for one week. 1t de-
veloped that the sentiment among the men,
bers is very equally divided into three ele-
ments. One favors the exposition, another
Is against 1t and the rest could not make up
their minds.
The discussion was inspired by a resolu-
ton by President Turkey, which affirmed that
the plan Is selfish and unwise and will be
productive of harm to the best interests OF
Omaha. 1t added that the agitation that
has already occurred has operated to the in
jury of the city and that the friendly spirit
that now obtained towards Omaha on the
part OF other Nebraska towns Is Of more
permanent value than even a repetition o.
the success of 1898.
Mr.. luke? spoke briefly in support OF his
resolution and w. H. Green and H. H. Har-
der opposed 1t. Other members declared
themselves in opposition to the exposition
but suggested that it was not necessary to
60 on record at this time. This idea pre-.
vailed and the resolution was laid over until
tho next meeting.
In concurrence with the recent action Of
the city council contemplating the appoint
ment of charter revision committees
Messrs. Robbins, Selby and Turkey wert
designated to represent the exchange. 1t II
the unanimous sentiment that no genera
charter revision should be attempted, ant
that only such amendments as seem neces
sary should be attempted.
A resolution was adopted urging the gov
rnmen to recognize the imp rtance OF Gal
weston as a deep water port by establishing
there a permanent army post.

Inc principal Item Of business considered
by the executive committee Of the Thurston
Rifles at their meeting last night was the
matter OF sending to the soldiers at Manill
the money that has been collected for their
CHRISTMAS dinner. The money amounts to
almost 5000, and 1t was decided to send
IT by cablegram to ensure it's arrival by
christmas. A considerable amount Of rou-
tine business was adjusted and there was an
election TO I'LL a vacancy in the associate
membership, A. II. Briggs being the man
chosen.

Deputy Matthews Of the internal revenue
Office force was in the city yesterday, look
Ing after a few delinquent members Of tn:
Live Stock exchange. A short time ago
the government ordered all commission
men to prepare a statement showing the
amount due the government from July ]
up to September IS, when the new stamp
law was enforced. All but four firms at the
exchange have prepared and filed
statements Of indebtedness to the govern
ment and 1t was for the purpose Of hurrying
up these delinquents that Mr.. Matthews
visited the city yesterday. The govern
ment does not insist that payments or the
amounts due be made, but the authorities
insist that the statements of Indebtedness
be fled at once. For a time after the
passage Of the war revenue law the com.
mission men did not stamp account sales
and other paper and an inclination was
shown to avoid the payment, II possible
The courts have held that such memoranda
should bear q revenue stamp and all COM
mission firms were instructed to prepare
statement Of the amounts due and submit.
the same to representatives Of the internal
revenue office. Mr.. Matthews considered
that the showing made at this point was
exceptionally good, as only four frms had
failed to comply with the order.
The question Of paying this back tax Is
to be submitted to the United s ates SUI
preme court by the National Live Stock
exchange and the revenue department will
not force the payment Of these amounts
until a decision is handed down by the
court. The statement Of Indebtedness must,
however, be nled at once.

according to his W story. expects to sell
for $4,000 what will cost him $500 at the
outside.
Mr.. j. Braxton Garland's plan is simplicity
itself. He has sent broadcast to persons
who were In some way connected with the
exposition a deftly- worded prospectus Of his
"history." He does not set forth in so many
words that his work is authorized by the ex-
position company, but his circular leaves
that impression. He asks that the recipient
sign the ironclad contract accompanying the
circular and return 1t with his photograph
and notes for a biographical sketch and the
same will be published In the history for
which service the person approached Is to
pay $25 and receive a copy Of the work in
addition to the prominence attaching to be-
ing allowed to appear In the pages Of the
history Of the most successful of all EXPOSE

Furniture and Garnet House.

KANSAS CITY, Nov. 2S.--Fire broke Out
In the Robert Keith furniture and carpet
establishment at 4:30 this morning. The
building Is a six-story structure located in
the heart Of the retail district. The fire
was gotten under control at z o'clock, with
an estimated loss Of $3.50, 900 on stock and
$40, 900 on building, amply insured.
The Keith house was one Of the biggest
Of Its kind in the west and carried a stock
valued at $250,0O0. The building is six
stories in height, fronting 300 feet on Grand
avenue and taking a half block
on Eleventh street. The fire started
on the top floor. which was stored with
mattresses and other infammable material.
1t burned fercely and was not gotten under
control until Z o'clock. The fourth, fifth
and sixth floors were burned out and the
remaining floors were soaked with water.
The most valuable portion Of the stock ia

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS.


hnpioye s III Inc postolice here are max
Ing preparations for the surety bonds which
they must give direct to the government
on January 1. Every postoflce employee,
with the exception Of the postmaster, comes
under this new ruling. The custom has
been for employees OF the office to give
personal bonds to the postmaster, but from
the irst OF the year on this plan will aban-
doned. Captain Etter. who has been rec
commended for postmaster to succeed John
MCMILLAN, Is talking OF giving a surety
bond instead Of asking his friends to sign
his bond. The deputy postmaster will be
required to give a surety bond for $1,000.
Eight carriers now ON the rolls and two
substitute carriers will have to give bonds
in the sum Of $1,000 each, while the stamp
clerk, a position which pays less than car
riers, will give q $4,000 bond. The general
delivery clerk, stampers, distributing clerk
and out-mailing clerks will give bonds in
tho sum Of $1,000. Postmaster Mcmillan
said yesterday that he would have all these
bonds arranged before the new postmaster
took hold, so that he would have no trouble
about the matter.
The roster OF the postofice Is as follows:
Carriers, E. @. Rozzelle, C. w. Miller, NJ.
A.. Martin. Charles Hrdlicka. John Gam
nell, William Mangan, NJ. J. Grady. w.
s. Derbyshire; substitute carriers, T. j.
Fitzgerald and Frank o. Spear; stamp
clerk, Miss Myrtle Keiffer; general deliv-
cry clerk. Miss Nellie Harrington. In the
mailing room P. J. Quinn Is distributing
clerk; z. F. spetmann, stamper; Frank H
Clerk, outmailing clerk; Jacob jacobson,
assistant mailing clerk.
The bonds Of Postmaster Mcmillan and
Deputy Bentley will hold until the former
Is replaced by Captain Etter. but all other
employees will at once proceed to secure
surety bonds. Fidelity bonding companies
in the east have offered to bond the en-
ployes Of this office at the rate OF $3.50 per
81, 1000.
The arriving and departing mails at this
point continue to Increase, although the
number Of sacks received and sent out re-
mains the same. Every day forty four
sacks are received and the same number
sent out. The sacks are, however, taxed
to their utmost capacity now and II the
business keeps up other arrangements will
have to be made.

RARE GIFT OF A COLLECTOR
Treasures Showing Evolution Of

ANN ARBoR, Mich, Nov. 2S.-Frcderick
Stems, a Detroit millionaire. has presented
to the University OF Michigan his UNIQUE
collection Of musical instruments, number
ing nearly 1000 pieces. Stems has been
collecting for fifteen years and has spent
upon his treasures something over s25,O 900
The present value Of the collection, however,
Is many times that sum. The Importance
Of the collection for the university lies in
the fact that It exhibits, with hardly u
break, the evolution Of the three great types
Of musical instruments from prehistoric
times down to the present. In this respect
1t excels the most famous collections OF this
country and Of Europe. The collection will
be placed in a room fitted up for 1t in TIE
museum building, and a complete catalogue.
lavishly illustrated, prepared by Mr.. Stems,
will soon be published by the university.

Collins Said to Have Killed HIS
Father to Obtain Spending
Money at College.

TOPEKA, Nov. 2S.-The trial OF John
Henry Collins for the murder Of his father,
J. s. Collins. was commenced in the dis
trict court today. The older Collsns, a
prominent citizen and real estate dealer, was
shot twice while asleep in his home, in May,
at 1 o'clock in the morning. The shooting
was done with Mr., Collins own gun, which
was secured from a closet adjoining his
bedroom. John H. Collins, son Of the MUIR
dered man, was attending the Kansas uni
versity at the time Of the murder and was
deeply in love with a young woman Of Law
renee. To secure his share Of the insurance
on his fathers life, some $4,000 or $1,000, to
enable him to prosecute his suit with the
young woman, is said to be the motive for
the crime. The work Of securing a jury will
probably occupy several days and the trial
will be q long one.
