~THE PLAY@

Perfectly lovely'' is what the women say in speaking of the performance of Charles FrohmanS Little Minister company, tho men echo their sentiments by the remark that "it was great" Everyone goes into raptures over this, the most successful play of the century. MT. Barrie, who made the dramatization from his famous and much talked of novel, has undoubtedly given us a play that is if anything stronger than the novel. It is customary nowadays in an- nouncing the play to speak of its phenome- nal success, especially If 1t has been seen for any period of time in any one city, but when it is stated that the Little Minister" was seen for 300 performances in New York and that the theater was crowded to the doors at each one of these perform ances, the truth is told. The success of the Little Minister" has caused more talk than any play that has been produced for a number of years. The business of this play since it left New York has been mar vicious in every place it has been seen. So far the theater has been crowded to it's ut most capacity. As soon as the announce ment that it is to appear is made there Is a big demand for seats and by the time the company is to appear every scat has generally been sold
 This attraction will be at O'Brien's next Thursday night.
 Cosgrove & Grants comedians in "The Dazzler" will be at Brien's Saturday matinee and night. The secret of the great success of Cosgrove & Grants comedians in the Dazzler lies in the fact that this celebrated farce comedy is always kept up to date, and if possible a little way beyond. No matter how successful a season may have been no sooner does 1t close than a strong effort is at once begun and kept up until the object is accomplished, vz.: the gathering together of lot of new material, songs. dances, specialties, etc., and the clothing of this new material in bright new dresses, so that the following season the show shall be to all intents and purposes a new one.
 The management has never been satis- fled to repeat from one season to another, no matter how good the material which they put aside might be. The result nat uraly is that the old friends of the Daz- zlsr go to see it again and again, knowing that though the name may be the same in every essential feature, the performance will be new.
 No year since its first production has the Dazzler ever gone out so completely equip ped with new material as this one. and the result shows the wisdom of those who ham, dle it.

BESSEMER.

Bessemer March 2s.-(Special)-Th case of Mrs. M. J. Rainey against the Louis- vile and Nashville Mineral road, which came up for trial yesterday, was brought to a close this afternoon with verdict for the defendant.

MURDER OF A
 NEGRO GIRL Father Shoots His Daughter
 Near Ozark. THE CAUSE OF THE CRIME Stella Everett Had Promised to Marry John Williams, to Whom Her Step father Objected-Murder Was
 Deliberately Planned.
THE CAUSE OF THE CRIME

Ozark, March 2S.-(SpeciaL)-Th quiet settlement in which Ex-Sheriff Doughtry lives. five miles south of the city, was thrown into a state of excitement yester- day afternoon at o'clock by the cowardly and brutal murder of Stella Everett, the 14-year-old step-daughter of Tony Medley. the murderer all colored
 She had been out walking with John Williams, a negro from the turpentine farm, and returned to the house alone. When she entered Medley said: "Where have you been?" To which she answered, 'It is none of your bus ness"
 Gathering his doube-barreled shotgun, he said: q can't stand this any longer, and now we'll die together.'
 The girl jumped behind Wash Medley, and he caught at the gun, but missed it, and while his arm was raised the infuri- ated demon fired the charge between his arm and body into the girls heart, and she died in a few minutes.
 MT. Doughtry, hearing the gun, rushed to the house. Medleys wife, who was at Doughtrys, refused to go for fear she would meet similar fate. On his arrival the demon, in his rage, placed the muzzle ol the gun 10 nlS own heart ana was gong to fire, when MT. Doughtry shouted at him, Don't do that, Tonyr' and the negro sat down on the doorstep with the gun across his knee
 Sheriff Bowling was at once notified, and Deputy Bob Bowling drove out and brought the prisoner to town without diff ficuty.
 When seen in his cell at the county jail this morning by a representative of the Age-Herald, he looked and talked in reckless manner. When asked why he killed the girl, he said he had been tor mented until he could stand it no longer, and that the only tn ng they could do with him was to hang him, and that would end it. Governor Johnston has been notified.
 Rumors of intimacy between the murder CT and his victim have been current in the community for many months, although the villain bitterly denies 1t. Williams, with whom the girl was out walking Sunday, had asked for her that morning, and news of their marriage, although suspected by Medley, reached him while the couple were out.
 The murderer undoubtedly had deliber- ate'y planned to kill the girl, her suitor and himself, as on Saturday before he had se- cured three cartridges. naming one of them after the girl, one after himself and the third he refused to reveal. On Sunday morning he put two of these in his gun and the other in his pocket
 The opinion of Mir Doughtry is generally accepted as a correct interpretation of the motives which led up to the tragedy.

THEY RlDICULE IT.
Many People Ridicule the Idea of an Absolute Cure for Dyspepsia
 and Stomach Troubles.
Ridiculc, However, is Not Argument, and
 Facts Are Stubborn Things.

Stomach troubles are so common, and in most cases so obstinate to cure, that peo- pie are apt to look with suspicion on any remedy claiming to be a radical, permanent cure for dyspepsia and indigestion. Many such pride themselves on their acuteness in cines.
 This fear of being humbugged can be carried too far-so far, in fact, that many people suffer for years with weak digestion rather than risk a little time and money in faithfully testing the claims made of a preparation so reliable and universally used as Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets.
 Now, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are vastly different in one important respect from ordinary proprietary medicines for the reason that they are not a secret pat ent medicine-no secret is made of their in- gredients-but analysis shows them to con- tain the natural digestive ferments, pure aseptic pepsin, the digestive acids, Golden Seal, bismuth, hydrastis and nux. They are not cathartic, neither do they act pow erfully on any organ, but they cure indi- gestion on the common-sense plan of di- gesting the food eaten thoroughly before 1t has time to ferment, sour and cause the mischief. This is the only secret of their success.
 Cathartic pills never have and never can cure indigestion and stomach troubles, be- cause they act entirely on the bowels, whereas the whole trouble is really in the stomach.
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets taken after meals digest the food. That is all there is to it. Food not digested or half-digested is poison as it creates gas, acidity, head aches, palpitation of the heart, loss of flesh and appetite, and many other troubles which are often called by some other name.
 They are sold by druggists everywhere at fifty cents per package. Address F. A. Stuart Co.,. Marshall, Mich., for little book on stomach diseases, sent free. 32Swky
