The masterpiece of effective dramatic
authorship, David Belasco's THE Heart
Of Maryland" will begin an engage
ment, matinee and night performances,
at the Opera House, Saturday, March
9TH. The play-goers to whom Mr..
Belasco's name and plays have long
been familiar, will now have an oppor-
tunity of witnessing in THE Heart of
Maryland" a drama in which the TO-
nance of woman's love illumines the
realism of story in which the interest
is as continuous as the characters en-
gagged in it's narration are typically in
dividualized. The picturesque scenic
settings are the same which illustrated
it during its American and English
tours

In connection with the engagement
of 'The Little Minister to be seen
here on Friday, March 3d. at the Opera
House, it is hardly necessary to more
than announce its appearance. The
play has been such a phenomenal sue
cess both as to the plot and to the
business done by it, that it has become
almost q household word. 1t is re-
markable the large number Of people
who keep in touch with matters theat-
rical. II a play meets with great sue
cess it is not long before the fact is
generally known. There was so much
talk here regarding the success of THE
Little Minister" that Manager Riester,
after its long run Of 300 nights in New
York, Immediately took steps to secure
1T for his theatre, and after a great
deal of difficulty he has finally been
able to do SO. The great pride he takes
in announcing "The Little Minister"
is certainly pardonable. The play has
had phenomenal success and it will be
many years before another play is pro-
duced that will equal it as a drawing
attraction. Mr.. Charles Frohman
whose company presents the play here
has had to use extreme care in getting
together cast that could properly por-
tray the peculiar characters that appear
in The Little Minister" Those who
have read the novel will doubtless I'M
derstand this fact. The reserved seats
for this engagement will be placed on
sale on Wednesday, March LIST. We
strongly advise those who intend to
see this famous comedy to be on hand
early, for from the talk that the engage
ment has made, it is doubtful if there
will be very many seats left at the close
of the first days sale.

Shooting at Durnnt.

The following under date of Oct.
20, shows that the quiet town of
Durant occasionally has some local
sensations with tragic denoue-
ments:
Last night at $40 two shots in
rapid succession were heard in the
north part of this city and imme-
diately there were heard groans
and the declaration of a man say
ing, Catch me, l am shot"
All was excited for while,
those living in that community
running to the scene.
A young lady with smoking re-
volver surrendered to Deputy Unit
ed States Marshal IL. X. Wall.
Upon elimination it was found
that party had received two
wounds in the breast, but thought
not to be fatal.

The WeIl-Spent Life.

Father time is not always hard
parent, and though he tarries for
none of his children. often lays his
hand lightly upon those who have
used him well; making them old
men and women inexorably enough,
but leaving their hearts and spirits
young and in full vigor. With
such people the gray head is but
the impression of the old fellows
hand in giving them his blessing,
and every wrinkle but notch in
the quiet calendar of a well spent
life. Dickens.

The Rarity of Hvdrophobia

1t has been asserted by many
friends of animals, who rightly OBJ
ject to the animal torture and
slaughter of dogs, and even by
some physicians, that there is no
such disease as hydrophobia or ra-
bies, as it is more correctly called.
Those who have studied the sub
ject carefully, however, are certain
that there is disease of dogs which
is communicable by one suffering
from it to other animals and to
man. But this disease IS very rare
and probably not one person in a
thousand bitten by dogs is in any
danger of it, and not one dog Kill
led among 500 supposed mad dogs
is really mad.-Youth's Compan-
ion.

VIII Treat All Alike.

This country doesn't want
trouble with Germany or any other
European power and there is nc
good reason for excessive slobhing
over England. What we want is
friendly relations with all nations
and entangling alliances with none
England is entitled to friendly
treatment, but no more so than
Germany or any other power.
Peace is what we want and a whole
lot of it.-Toledo Bee.

An expression-that we often
hear is, Not worth his salt" but
few people realize its antiquity or
its original meaning. 1t is handed
down to us from ancient Roman
days when the soldiers used to re-
ceive a portion of salt as part of
their pay. Sal is the Latin for salt
and when in the course of time the
salt was commuted for money the
amount was called salarium, or salt
money. Hence our word salary,
and hence also the expression mot
worth his salt.'
