Father Stricken Whom flo Heard of Soldier
Sons Death.

.WILKESBARRE4 Pa, November A.
After waiting an anxious month for news
of his soldier boy, Samuel Powell OF Tay-
lor aged rs years, dropped dead this morn
ing when a dispatch came from Puerto
Rico saying the young man was dead.
The first news came a month ago and
said the boy, Private John Powell, had
typhoid fever After that the old man did
no work. and haunted the postofflce and
telegraph station. When the news he
waited for came to-day It killed him.

green corn. The count eyed them askance.

Gibney- Hoeffler Company, in renerfoire'
at popular prices; Monday night. For
OPERA HoUsEAFriday and SATURDAY.
and matinee, "A Ragtime Reception
The dramatic offerings at both thea
tiers during the week were very fair.
Robert Downing played to moderate
business at the Opera House in three
performances of San Indiana Ro-
nance" Mr.. Downing has not only
LETT tragic roles behind, but actually
sings song in the play, and does it
well, too. 1t is radical departure for
Downing, and his friends are rather
shocked to see him as an untutored
hoosier, but after the novelty wears off
his performance is very pleasing His
support is capable, but the play Is
rather dull and tiresome at times, and
seldom, If ever, rises above the COM
monplace. At the Grand the Aubrey
company played to good business with
Victor Morley, Lillian Bayer and Geo.
L. Stout in leading roles. The COM
pany needs nothing SO badly as sing
ing soubrette, to enliven all the produc-
lions and to carry out the promise of
specialties between acts. Manager
Mittenthal realizes this, and is now
searching the market for suitable per-
son.
Frederick Bryton's famous story.
Forgiven" or Jack Of Diamonds,
will be the Gibney-H oeffier Company's
opening play Monday night. Maurice
wilkinson will he seen in the role Of
Jack of Diamonds. while Morgan Glib
ney will be seen in the comedy role of
Denver Dan, and Nellie Gfbney that OF
Anna Denison, Jack of Diamonds wife.
The piece will be handsomely mounted
and high class specialties will be intro
dueed between acts by Details and
Valera, comedy jugglers, direct from
Roster & Balls, New York; MacMillen
and Grey, sketch artists, singers and
dancers; Billy Stanford, German come
dian and dancer, and others making the
performance continuous. Prices are 10,
20 and 80 cents, and ladies half tickets
are offered for Monday night.
A long laugh set in smiles to rag
time music is the attraction at the
Opera House Friday and Saturday and
Saturday matinee, presented by clever
comedians, dashing soubrettes. grand
prima donna5, and a. large chorus CT
pretty girls who can sing and dance
and make the hours merry. Outside
of Mr. Charles Hoyt's famous work we
have nothing new in farce comedy for
several years until "A Ragtime Recep-
tion," which was presented last season
for spring tour through the east,
where it met with instantaneous sue
cess, and was accepted by the critics In
the east as the one positive novelty In
farce comedy presented during the last
decade. George Totten Smith, who has
become famous for his bright and witty
vaudeville sketches, is the author;
tMessrs. Graham & Bromilow, the man
ayers, have placed it before the public
with one OF the strongest companies
ever seen in farce comedy, having Sc
lected every member for their line OF
work, which embraces artists from
grand and comic opera, vaudeville and
dramatic, who appear incidental to the
play in unique and novel specialties,
which occur in natural manner. The
comedy is written up-to-date with new
music, catchy songs, witty sayings,
presented with all new scenery, all OF
which is carried by the company.

One of the few exclusively important
imported British products used in our
country is chalk 1t comes from the
banks of the River Thames, being OBJ
tainable nowhere else in large quantt-
ties. In it's crude form, remarkable
flint fossils are sometimes found, usual
ly the remains of fish. The process OF
manufacture from the natural state to
that of form when it can be utilized
is simple. When received at the mill
the chalk is put into great machines
and ground with water, then floated off
into watts of water, where all the impu-
rites and foreign substances are pre-
the water being afterward
drawn off by series of filtering opera
tions. and the soft residuum dried by
steam heat and exposure to the air.,
the substance is then reduced to pow.
er of different degrees of finenees by
grinding in burr mills and betting.
when it is ready to be packed in barrels
and sold for use among the different
stores throughout the country.

Although 100000 persons in the
United States are engaged in bee
culture, the annual value of the pro-
duct being probably $4,000, 600, Mr..
Frank Benton finds that the fora is
capable of supporting ten times the
present number of colonies of bees.
The industry not'only does not i'm
poverish the soil but ensures better
seed and fruit crops.
