MERCHANrs nIssAr1sr1nn

The change in the running of the trains
on the Navasota branch of the Santa Fe
has caused great deal of dissatisfaction
among Brennan merchants Heretofore
the company has operated mixed train
on the branch road, one going each way
daily from Navasota. The train coming
this way would come to Brennan on the
main line, arriving at II a. nj. and would
return at p. m. This would allow those
living at Somerville, Gay Hill, Clay Sta
ton. Allans Farm and other places to
come to Brennan. trade with BRENNAN
merchants and return home. The road
commenced Monday operating a pnssen-
ger train on the line, which leaves Cleve-
land at a M, arrives at Somerville at
II and remains there until p. N, re-
turning to Cleveland, at which place It
arrives at p. III. This prevents the peo-
pie coming here to do their trading. The
BRENNAN people believe that il the COM
pany would the train could be run to
Brennan, instead OF remaining four hours
at Somervllle, and give accommodation to
the public, and at the same time bring
business to Brennan. which Is a valuable
point on the line OF the road. This morn
ing a petition was circulated which is ad
dressed to the company asking that the
train be run to Brennan as heretofore,
Every man TO whom the petition was
presented signed IT, and It would be
signed by every merchant in town were
Il shown to him. It was desired that 1t
be SAINT IN today, however. The list rep
resents some Of the largest shippers in
the town.

AM
"a FAIR REBEL"

That the Patrons of the Family Thea
ter expected something above the average,
in the presentation of "a Fair Rebel
this week by the French Theatre COM
any, was evident by the vast crowd
that attended the performances. That
they were not disappointed, was again
shown by the hearty applause hich
greeted the various situations and MEM
bers of the company. Nc better dramatic
company has played at the Family Thea
tire since it has been in existence. Not
only is the company strong, but the play
a good one, and is being produced with
careful supervision as to detail, which
adds much to it's enjoyment. The spec
ialties between the act are also enjoyed
very much. They are not necessary,
however, as the play is strong enough to
take care of itself. "a Fair Rebel is
based on incidents of the war, between the
north and the south and takes place IN
the fall of 1864. The scene being laid IN
fair Virginia. The scenes are exciting
and interesting. Among them may be
mentioned the thrilling death Of Major
Watkins, the United States telegraph
| OPERATOR, who is shot while tapping the
wires, and sending through a very I'M
| portant message to army headquarters.
Mr.. H. A. Wilson as Major Watkins does
one of the neatest bits of sensational act
ing of the play. Blossom Boardman, as
Clarette Montieth, THE Fair Rebel is
very strong. Miss Boardman is an eXcep-
tionally clever actress. Mamie Holden as
Captain Johnny. has a part that fits her
exactly. She has never been seen to a
better advantage here. Her Montieth
home guards mad up of twenty little
ragamuffins is perfectly killing" In
this Il new actor makes his Butte debut,
Master Dick French three years old, is
the star of the Guards" and as a high
private in the company jumps into
favor. Eva Earl French, as Sally
Woods, the back woods woman, does an
exceptional clever piece of character act
ing. Dick French as Col. Mason both
looks n acts the part of the hero. Mr.
Bordman as Major James Stiliman, ano
Miss Strong as Aun Margie furnish q
sample of love making that keeps thu
house in a continual uproar of laughter
Mr.. Smileya as DE Perrin is thevillair
Of the play, for all plays of this class mus
have a william and he certainly makes
clever one. The verdict of all who hav
seen their performances say 1T is the bes
dramatic company that has ever playet
at the Family Theatre. "A Fair Rebel

ADEMENTED AUSTRIAN
HE IMAGINES HIMSELF THE, KING
OF SPAIN.

Albert Tilka, a demented Austrian.
fancies himself the king of Spain, and
when he was taken to police h%eadquar-
tiers last night he pompously asked the
officers:
"Where will I find Bismarck"
Charley Ray grinned and replied that
Bismarck was in his county palace open
ing a keg of beer and his majesty, the
king Of Spain, would be there in time to
ASSIST him. Mr.. Ray was correct in his
conclusions for the king was soon escort
ed to the county Jail where the question
of his sanity will be inquired into.
1t appears that Tilka has been terroriz-
ing the neighbOrhood in the vicinity of
$40 Chicago street. He imagined that his
life was in danger particularly from dogs
and devils and arming himself with a
shot gun he look up mis- quarters in the
basement of the house. The man is prob
ably a miner as his hands show the stains
of copper matter. His wife does not speak

OUTPUT OF THE kLONDIKE

No one will ever exactly know how
much gold was taken from the
folds the past season. Since the English
government imposed a royalty, the
miners have adopted all sorts of ruses to
evade the law. 1t is rather difficult to
dodge taxes, but it is more difficult to
dodge a bad cold and the grip at this time
of the year. When the system is weak
ened by such attacks. and the blood be-
comes thin and impoverished, the best
medicine to take is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. This remedy builds up the sys-
tenn. Besides regulating digestion, it over
comes constipation. 1t is good for the
kidneys and liver, too. stimulating these
| organs into the proper performance of
| their functions. Nothing is SO good for

HEINZE'S ALASKAN ROAD,

F. Aug. Heinze is interested in a scheme
to establish an extensive railway system

dictate against Heinze, Paul Herman and
Bernard J. Frank to restrain them from
disposing of certain plans, field notes
and profles of the Alaskan country. The
railroad route has been selected from
