At the Opera House.

The Partisan Princess" as pre-
sented by the Rose Stillman com
pany at Kloski's, last night, was
wise hit on the part of the man
agement. The play brought out
the talent of this excellent com
pany to good advantage, and this
initial production bids fair to COM
mand good houses during the
weeks engagement. The singing
and dancing specialties were well
rendered and highly appreciated
by the vast audience which filed
the house.
Tonight they will present the
queen of comedies, Jane" II
will be preceded by the one-act
comedetta, Nance Oldfeld." " This
famous One-act play is at present
being presented in London by Mrs.
Kendall and by Rose Coglan in
New York and Boston. Jane, "
as presented by this clever woman
Rose Stillman, will make a great
hit with our theater-g goers. The
singing and dancing specialties
that are to be introduced will be
worth the price of admission.

How to Prevent PneumonIa

You are perhaps aware that pneu-
monia always results from a cold or
from an attack of la grippe, During
the epidemic of la grippe few years
ago when SO many cases resulted in
pneumonia, it was observed that the
attack was never followed by that
disease when Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy was used. 1t counteracts
any tendency of cold or la grippe
to result in that dangerous disease.
1t is the best remedy in the world
for bad colds and la grippe. Every
bottle warranted. For sale by City

WILL NOT HANG.
Appeals Have Been Grsnted the Two
Condemned Men.


Information has been received
here stating that appeals and stay
of execution, until June has been
granted Dennis Nolen and Charles
Bias, the two men sentenced to be
hanged on Friday the 18th inst.
The men were yesterday placed un-
der the vigilance of a death watch,
which has not yet been relaxed.
the marshal not having any orders
to do so. The condemned men re-
ceived letters today from their at
torneys, who have been presenting
the case before the supreme &ribun-
al at South McAlester. stating
their appeal had been granted and
that they would not hang on next
Friday, and that prospects were
favorable for another trial.
Both men, while outwardly
seemingly Indifferent to the new
lease of life granted them. were
no doubt inwardly rejoicing at the
respite. Nolen and Bias were
seated closely together in their cell
only few feet from their guard
when seen today, Nolen with a
Bible in hand, was asked if he did
not feel better since the receipt of
his good news, replied Yes, sir,
expect l do, as much as a man can
who is in jail" Until the news
of an appeal having been granted
them was received not one word
has been known to have been spo-
ken between the two men since
they were put under close surveil-
lance. Now they chat quite freely.

While it is true, lis better
never late,v it is also true, 1t is
better late than never;'' and at
this late hour the Benevolent soci-
ciety begs to be allowed, through
this medium, to express its heart
felt thanks to the people who so
generously assisted us in acting
Santa Claus for some of our unfor-
tunate fellow-creatures.
1t would be impossible to esti-
mate the exact worth Of the cloth
ing. new aud old, which was do
mated, but we guessed it to be
worth $50. Some of the second
hand clothing was nice and would
do good service; but some. of it,
oh. myl We thought as we un-
packed old battered-looking hats,
ragged coats and worn and mis-
mated shoes, if it is true that He
that hath pity on the poor leudeth
unto the Lord, and that which he
hath given will he pay him again, "
won't we present a lamentable APP
pearance marching through the
pearly gates in cooked hats, worn
shoes and ragged coatsl
The food given was estimated at
$40, and was as evenly given out
as could be done under existing
circumstances.
Forty-seven dollars and sixty
cents in cash was given us, and af-
ter buying apples, oranges, pecans,
candy, toys, story books and some
provisions, there was a balance of
$17. 10 which was laid aside as the
beginning of a building fund,
these energetic women having in
mind a home for the friendless, to
be erected on a lot given by Mr..
Golledge. We are wondering how
many citizens of ArdmOre will
come forward with a large sum to
add to this small one.
We are sure we would not beg
for ourselves, nor steal either; but
we're women, and cannot help
gossiping. You must not tell, and
I'll tell you something we did.
There were a few apples and pc
cans and a little candy left-and
we ate it. You see we knew it was
illegal to muzzle the OK when he
treadeth out the corn," and we
thought that entitled US to bite

18th, with Mrs. j. A. Madden.
There will be no left-overs al

nice sociable time; and in the in
terest of the poor, whom we have
always with US, let US be there, re-
membering that Christ came not
to be ministered unto, but to min
ister."
Again thanking you for your
liberal help. we wish you a happy
and prosperous New Year.

O'Clock an old fashioned party of
old fashioned people met with
Mrs. Will Vernon at her pleasant
home on West Main street. The
occasion of the meeting was a
carpet rag tacking'' and right
busily did each lady apply her
needle until some two or three
balls apiece were tackled. The
rain fell drearily and monotonous-
ly outside but this only served to
enhance the comforts of the cozy
room inside, the fire burned bright
ly in the old fashionable red brick
fire place and as we sewed and
chatted pleasantly, we recalled
many happy "reminiscences of ye
olden times" when as children
playing around the big fireplace in
the old home in the States" we
made pictures in the glowing
hickory Goals and listened to the
chirrup, chirrup of the cricket on
the HEARTH" the little old ''trun-
die bed" upon whose downy
depths" we dreamed the hours of
childhood away, was recalled with
pleasure not unmixed with sad
ness, for the old "trundle bed'' is
thing of the past now, the smart
up-to-date folding bed having
usurped its place, but though the
folding bed can boast of being one
of the proud products of the en-
lightened nineteenth century, ii
can never equal the little old
fashioned trundle bed, in downy
sleep inviting softness, with the
fire place and 'trundle bed" moth
er's sweet voice and face came
back, making the sweetest picture
that hung on memory's wall
After the carpet rags were tackled,
Mrs. Vernon ION hospitable
thoughts intent treated us to q
substantial and quite old fashioned
supper-hot biscuits and butter,
breakfast bacon, with its appetiz.

The afternoon passed so pleasant

it, and as we trudged home il
the cleaning" we were conscious
of a sly wish that this would no
be the last carpet tacking." ant

STANFORD PROFESSORS.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, May 8.
The new era OF prosperity which
Stanford University experienced when
the Stanford estate was finally freed
from the courts has until now made
itself manifest to the public only
through the new buildings now in
course of construction on the campus.
Today, however. President Jordan an
nounced that he is materially streng-
thening the faculty and that a consid-
cradle number of new faces will be
seen among the instructing corps when
college reopens next September after
the coming summer vacation. One
appointment is announced today and
others will follow soon.
