ponies and fingered probap.y TOT a parting shot at the foremost of the chase, had scampered away behind the curtain of that ridge. Therefore. in long curve, never checking his magnificent stride, Dean guided his bounding bay to the left-the north of the divide.
 And then it all occurred to him too that he was far in front of his men. too far to be of use to them and just far enough to be an easy prey for the lurking foe. Then, too, it occurred to him that he must not leave the ranch unprotected. Already he was within long rife range of the height; already proba ply some bsady eye was glancing through the sights, and the deadly tube was covering him as he came bounding on. Three hundred yards more and his life probably wouldn't be worth Q dollar in con federate money, and wisely the young leader began to draw rein, and, turn ing in saddle, signaled to his single companion, laboring along one hun dred yards behind, to hasten to join him. Presently the trooper came spurring up,a swarthy young Ger man, but though straining every nerve, the troop was still @ mile away.
 Ride back Wegner, and tell the sergeant to take ten men around that he pointed with his hand; "the rest to come straight to me-" '
 Oh, well was 1t for Dean that he checked his speed, and as the young dragoon went sputtering back, that he himself drew rein and waited for the coming of his men. Suddenly from far out along the ridge in front, from the very crest, there leaped jet or two of fire and smoke. Two little spurts of dust and turf flew up from the prairie sod dozen yards in front, @ rife bullet went singing oil through the sunny air, Rabb, his handsome bay, paved the ground and switched about, and up on the crest, riding boldly in full view, two 1.-the, naked, painted warriors, war bonnets trailing over their ponies croups, yelling shrill insult and derision, went tearing away northward, one Of them pausing long enough to wave some ragged object on high and give out ringing, exultant whoop ere he disappeared from view.
 Its Q scalp, lieutenant" shouted the foremost sergeant as he carne up to join his chief. They've got one, anyhow" ;t*
 Como on, then. and we'll get it back" was the only answer, as with nearly thirty troopers stringing out behind them, the two launched out in chase -.

"FEDORA."

There were very many things unsat- fsfactory about the above production last night. and the few that were pres ent did not enthuse during any portion of the play to any great extent. Of course it was not expected that we would be presented with one of the finished performances that was wont to be so characteristic of the produc- tions of the late lamented actress, Miss Davenport. While 1t was one of the masterpieces of that revered actress while she lived, it was rather a disap- pointment last evening. There may be several causes for this, but perhaps the principal one is the fact that the company has not been enacting the various roles but three or four days. It looks very much, however, as though the people who were here last night have bitten off more than they can chew" with any satisfactory degree of digestion. Miss Eleanor Franklin es- saved the title role of Fedora" and while at times she did fairly good work, she was not equal to the de- mands of the character. It must be taken into consideration that she has one of the most difficult characters to portray in the person of Fedora and she must be given the greatest credit for Her evident conscientious efforts to conceive the role. She was the best in the company and perhaps she may in. time feel equal to the task imposed upon her. Brimsley Shaw attempted the, character of Loris Ipanoff, and while he had a powerful and some times melodiouS voice, his acting was fasteless and unpalatable. In but one scene did he arise to the occasion, and that in the last act, where he discovers that the woman he loves was the be- trayer of his family and himself The rest of the company was of the very mediocre kind. The dressing of the stage was tasteful as far as the hang in9s were concerned, but the furniture in St Petersburg and Paris should have had a greater difference than a sim- pie change from one side of the stage to the other While the play is very sdialoguey it was made more so last night and the performance as a whole could be improved upon.

awaiting him. A glance at the com manding heights and the ridge that connected it, with the tumbling, wood- ed hills to the north, convinced him that at that moment some of the foe were lurking there, watching the westward valley. and by this time they knew full we'll of the coming of the cavalry to the rescue. By this time, more than likely, they were scurrying off to the mountains again, returning the way they came, with a start of at least two miles.
 With or without the coveted scalps?' he wondered. Thus far he had been riding straight for the butte. The road wound around and disap- reared behind him. but there was no sense in following the road. Pursue and punish,'' was the thing to be done. Surely not more than dozen were in the band, else that courier could never have hoped to get ia, wounded as he was. The Indians were too few in number to dare follow to the ranch, guarded az, by almost God given luck, it happened to be through the unlookcd-for presence of the troops. No, 1t was small band, though daring one. It's lookout had surely warned it by this time of his coming, and by this time, too, all save ore or two who rode. the feetest

"OITR NEW MINISTER"

Show-goers will recall the enthusl- asm created two weeks ago by Den man Thompson and George W. Ryer's New England play, Our New Minis ter,'' and they will learn with pleasure that the play has bee secured for return engagement at Polls on Mon day evening next. It was small au- dience that saw the play on its prevl- ous visit, but so enthusiastic were they and so loud were their praises after the show that the local manage ment has been flooded with requests ever since to bring it back. Monday evening has been found the most avail able date for a return engagement, and though the notice is short, there will undoubtedly be a general desire to grasp the opportunity of seeing it again. The play is a distinct and characteristic picture of New England life, dealing with religious matters in cidentally and in a way to win favor with any audience, as it teaches the gospel of true human brotherhood The sale of seats opens tomorrow morning, and we can advise all who want to see a genuinely good show to see this one.

sTHE THREE MUsKETEERs."

1.-THE THREE MUSkETEERS."
 It was a strange thing to witness the production in Jacques last night at popular prices of ''The Three Mus keteers." This play has been given so oftea at high scaled prices that there were many who believed that it would not step down from it's high place on the ladder of leading enter Iainments. Only in price, however, has it descended for it is the same Interesting and startling drama that has delighted many representative audiences throughout the country. The company producing it last night is good one from every point of view. Harry GIazier essays the leading role and his work was excellent. In fact, the whole company made an excellent impression and the rest of the engage ment should be characterized by good crowds. Everything has been procur- ed to make the play q success and the scenic effects and the costumes add not a little to the smoothness of the performance. It will be given at popu- lar prices for the rest of the week and there are also matinees each day

THE OLDEST TWINS.
Have Led Identical Careers for Many YsarS.

Col. Henry o. Nevill, of Blythedale, No., and Col. Games M. Nevill, of Ridgeway, Mo-, have the distinction the United States, and their lives have been as closely similar their physi- cal appearance, says the New York World.
 They were born in Barron county, Ky, on June 25, 1915. At the age of eight years they moved to Hart coun- ty, Ky, where they resided until 1850.
 Henry O. Neviu was commissioned colonel of the One Hundred and First regiment, Twentieth brigade, Ken lucky militia, and was also commis- stoned by Gov. Ousley as first lieuten- ant of company H, Fourth Kentucky volunteers, for the Mexican war.
 In the spring of 1850 they moved to Harrison county, Mo-, where they have continued to reside until the present time. At the time of coming here they were handsome, distin- guished looking men, and so much alike that strangers could not tell one from the other. : Their lives have been strangely A@>A sA~@A' AASy hldII4So S1abeAS, Rhoda and Lily Ann Brooks, both of whom are deceassd; each raised a family of seven children, and each family furnished soldiers for the union army in the civil war.
 Both have served as judges of the county court of Harrison county, and both served in the Missouri state legislature, Henry o. from 1854 to 1856 and James M. from 1858 to 1860 and from 1880 to 1882.
 During the civil war Henry o. was colonel in the Missouri state militia and James NJ. was colonel in the Mis- souri enlisted militia.
 In religion, both are Baptists. In their early days both were Henry Clay whigs, but on the breaking out of the civil war they identified them selves with the republican party.
 Their grandfather, James Nevill, was Virginian. He served as a pri- vate in the revolutionary war. In an early day he moved to Kentucky and was 'forted up" with Daniel Boone. He aftsrward moved westward and settled in Barron county, in the Green river country. He lived to be s9 years and eight months of age.
 \ Their father, Villain Nevill, was a soldier in the war of 1s12. He lived in Kentucky until his death, which occurred at the age of 8 years.

"CAUGHT IN THE WEB"

Following at the Jacques, on Mon- day, Tuesday and Wednesday, comes Joseph Le Brandt's new comedy drama, Caught in the Web.' This is the same bright young author who wrote 'On the Stroke of Twelve" and like that fine play abounds in sensa- tional scenes and situations. The story is of a young detective who is put on the trail of a friend accused of embedding, and like the regulation melodrama it takes the hero and hero inc through a spidery web of danger and trials into the broad sunlight of peace and happiness. The play is pre- sented by a capable company. and the scenic effects are of the very finest description. Seats go on sale to-mor TOW.

JAMES REED INJURED.

Mr.. James Reed, struck his leg
against a cake of ice in such a manner
as to bruise it severely. 1t became very
much swollen and panied him so badly
that he could not walk without the and
of crutches. He was treated by physi-
clans, also used several kinds of lini-
ment and two and a half gallons of
whiskey in bathing it, but nothing gave
any relief until he began using Cham
berlain's Pain Balm. This brought al
most a complete cure in a weeks time
and he believes that had he not used
this remedy his leg would have had to
be amputated. Mr.. Reed is one Of the
leading merchants of Clay Court House

Attorney General Dole read an OPT
Mon to the Executive yesterday against
the granting of a franchise to the
Pearl City Agricultural Company for
the reason that the concern had not
complied with Hawaiian regulations.
1t was ruled in general that companies
in other States or Territories must COM

charters of any kind. The company in
question is organized in California and
purposes operating on small capital
somewhere in the neighborhood OF
Pearl Harbor.

other opinion in regard to Government
physicians drawing pay for attending
prisoners in custody. The opinion was
in shape of a letter addressed to the
Auditor, instructing that official not 10
