"A Black Sheep"

Three hours of merriment is what Is promised at the Jefferson Theatre on Fri day next when Hoyt's "A Black Sheep returns to repeat its success of it's last Vis- it. A Black sheep is amongst the bright est and breeziest of all that popular au- thors attempts. While MT. Hoyt has ad- hered closely to farcical, he has in this piece introduced an abundance of spirited and catchy music. "A Black Sheep" aside from being what is claimed as delightful entertainment, with it's handsome women, it's colorlngs, us rapid movements, its mu- sic and amusing satlre is repete with character drawings that command atten- ton, and one perceives in it a keen insight of human foibes. The cast selected this season to portray the various quaint char aeters is Big Bill'' Devere again heads the list, playing the principal part-the editor of ''The Tombstone Inscription" The bal ance of the cast will include George Allen, Lenore Lockwood, Fanny DaCosta, Lulu Beeson, Lillian Kenwick, Harry DeVere, Thomas Beeson, Ruth Madigan, William Morrow the Wallaces, Ernest Greene, Ben Maley, Larry Gero, William Staley and many others.

TWO OF LEES STAFF DIED IN
POVERTY.

The pathetic termination of the life
of Colonel II. F. Peyton, Inspector
General on General Lees staff, recalls
The death of Colonel Briscoe Baldwin
and the sad circumstances connected
herewith. 1t will be recalled that
Colonel Peyton received the fiDsl sum.
mons ct S.. Louis. He mad been in the
city but few weeks and died penniless.
Il Was found i'll in the street and re.
removed to the hospital. His body
would DOW rest in paupeT's grave bui
for the fact thss bis identity WAS dis
covered by Confederate veterans iviI &
10 the city. These gentlemen betrayed
the expenses of his bulial.
Colonel. Pe} ton reached St. Louis a
few weeks ago before the end came ~
quest OF employ yment. He had little
money and sought shelter at moder-
lte hotel. Then be went in quest o
employment. He found none, for hi
wears were weighing upon him. Soon
his money was gOGe aud ne left the
h0iel. How he lived until picked up
starving will never be known.
10 many respects, Col, Bald wins lat
er years we're spent under similar cir
cumstauoes. For many years Colonel
Baldwin lived at Bryan, Fex, depend
eut upon the bounty of relatives in Viz.
ei0ia, who made stated remittsuces to
Dromioent ciliz'n OF Bryan to be dis
lursed for bis Dene6t-which bad to Of
done surrepuIiously by them, as the old
colonel was much too proud TO acCep'
charity--but would accept help as a
can from friends, TO be paid back wht L
0e attained to financial SUCCESS.
He became mouomaniac on the sub
ject OF money and imagined that the
government owed him many millions Of
dollars that he would one day possess,
-0d he would often present his friends
with checks Drawn for immense amounts
n return for small favors. To doubt
one OF his checks was to incur his
furious resentmeUt-fOr while he was
perfectly sane on all other subjects and
vas a most plished historian OF
be Confederate war from personal Oh
seEvation and service with the imm0r
lal Lee, yet 90 the subject OF
wealth mis- miud was In a COM
plete state of chaos. His bearing was
always mi iary aud courtly. His quiet,
unassuming and harmless conduct wor
the es' eem OF the people of Bryan, and
since MS death they have erected q
handsome monument over his grave.
Rumor mas whispered that he WIS,
during the war, engaged to Miss Mil
ired Lee, General Lees daughter, and
that after the war, bel g penDileEs, he
was too proud to claim her until he
could give her proper station in life.
For several years he strove manfully to
accumulate money, bu without success,
aud il is said that hoally he became a
mental wreck Oh the subject-from
broodne over IL. No word of this, how
ever, ever came fron Colonel Baldwin
although he admitted close friend
ship and intimsov with General Lees
family, and 1t is known that Genera
Lee regarded him very highly.
Thus two of the great Confederate
chieftain's trusted lieuteneGts have
passed away in poverty aud obscurity-
and the thrill OF pity that human hearts
I now feel for them is too late to serv
them. They were GODS noblemeD
but failed to eein recognition as such OF
earth.-[Dsllas (Tex) Post.

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes. August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civl.
lied world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and ihey
seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostration or Heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation OF undl-
gested food, regulate the action OF The
liver, stimulate the nervous and organic
action of the system, and that is all
they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. You
