season now that the company is at the height of It's popularity. but such is the case. Formal announcement was made at last nights performance of the sea- sons close on August d-tomorrow night.
 'tMikado" was the attraction last night and for all practical purposes the per formance was a faw1ess one All the popular favorites were applauded time after time. One feature that always ex- cites comments in this production of ''Mikado' Is MT. Washburn's Pooh Bah. It is a concerted and highly dignifid @zzS and a most difficult one to render effect lively. MT. Ligi1twood. the company's stage manager. says that in all of his long experience in comic opera he has never known a Pooh Bah who filled the role as satisfactorily as Mir. washburn.
 Tomorrow night will be the fiftieth per- formance this season and as a souvenir of the occasion attractive mementoes will be given to all the ladies present.

DETECTIVE AND LAWYER FIGHT.
Attorney Wade Mothershed and Andy
 Sullivan Pass Several Blows.

The monotony of the work of the patrol man who watches Second avenue from Nineteenth to Twentieth streets was sud- denly disturbed yesterday afternoon at S:45 o'clock by a fight between Wade Mothershed, a lawyer. and Andy Sullivan, a detective. both of whom are we'll known. The fight occurred in the Peerless saloon. Several blows were passed before by islanders separated the two combatants.
 The scrap was unique in that one of the men is a sufferer from his eyes and con- sequently wears glasses. while the other has only one arm. Mothershed is the one- armed man, and bystanders state that he struck the first blow. Both men were bruised and given black spots during the trouble.
 The cause of the affair could not be learned as statements of the crowd about the saloon at the time vary. Few seemed to know the beginning of the fight. Both parties were arrested, but gave bond for trials at the Inferior Court this morning.

Officers Shirley. Cole and Nix were called to ,the residence of Mrs R. Ehr- man. in Third avenue and Seventeenth street. last night about o'clock upon in- formation that the infant son of Mrs. Ehrman had been kidnapped by the negro cook. Mary Shepherd. When the officers arrived they were informed that the cook had been given permission to carry the child to the residence of Mrs. Smith. in Eighth avenue, and had promised to re- turn in a short while, and having been absent for several hours, had caused Mrs. Ehrman to become alarmed. The of ficers set out for the residence of Mrs. Smith. and no such person could be found in that neighborhood.
 Officer Nix knew the woman by sight, and after searching the neighborhood for some time saw the woman coming down Third avenue with the child in a baby carriage. She was questioned and said: 'Tse jest been to see lady fren of mine, and the baby done gone and went to sleep, and I didn't want to disturb him" The woman and child were carried to the home of Mrs. Ehrman, and there was great rejoicing.

WHY WOMEN FADE.

A million women today should be told what other millions have learned. That they need one element in their blood far more than men, and that lack of 1t is the reason they are apt to fade many years before they should The needed element is iron. Iron builds up the red corpuscles of the blood and sustafns vitality and strength.
 Women need a constant supply of blood making material or their systems break down under the constant drain. The very moment there is lack of blood. or when the blood is impoverished, the signal ap- pears upon the face in sallowness or pallor.
 The remedy needed Is pr. Harter's Iron Tonic. Nothing else meets this paraicuIar condition so we'll. Use of 1t has made hundreds of thousands of women look many years younger and made them feel even younger than they looked. It not only restores strength, energy and beauty. but it is a prompt and certain cure for all the ills peculiar to the sex. It cures be- cause it removes the first cause. It sup plies just what nature needs to bring health.
 1t strengthens debilitated organs. gives tone and elasticity to muscles and nga- ments, rounds out wasted tissues and re- news the vigor of the nervous system. It helps quickly and just as surely and permanently.
 Has been used and praised by women for forty-five years Prepared only by The pr. Harter Medicine Co, Dayton, O. For sale everywhere.

HIGHLAND AVENUE 
 WORK IS DELAYED
Birmingham Realty Co. Suffers from Rain and Other Uncon-
 troIIabIe Occurrences

The effects of the rains that have pre- vailed during the past two weeks have been felt more by the Birmingham Realty Company, probably. than any other one organization in the city The company is engaged in grading. macadamfzfng and placing sewers along Highland avenue, on the South Highlands, and the rains have played havoc with their work
 The work of making the roads has been delayed by many causes. Tn speaking of these delays. Engineer Clark of the com pany yesterday said:
 "When we made the contract for grad ing the first section of the avenue our agreement called for a completion of the work fin fifty clear working days. or three months. This. of course, did not include the macadamizlng or laying of sewers The work was begun in the latter part of February, but it was soon discovered that a large portion of the way ne- cessltated blasting, and we met with de- lay. Further delay was occasioned by the changing of street railway tracks to new grades.
 "Then came the weather of the past month, which has practically stopped all work The violence of this rain was felt in all parts of the city. tearing macad- emized streets literally to pieces. We were not effected so much as that on ac- count of our position on the mountain side. Besides this, we have built storm sewers on an extensive scale, and thereby further delayed Much time was lost in connecting sanitary sewers with city sewers. This was done at heavy cost, too.
 "The position of street being around the mountain side caused engineering diff faculties that also delayed us. But with 1t all we have had no undue delay. but have kept as many men at work as pos sibIe. Our present expectations are to complete the road to General Rhodes hom in two weeks. The north half of .the road to the ball park will be pushed as rapidly as possible to completion.
 'The company is using every effort to complete work without delay. and will allow no controllable cause to interfere with the progress
