"When We We're Twenty One" by H. V.
Esmond, which scored an enormous success
at the Knickerbocker Theatre, New York,
and has been pronounced by press and pub
lie the greatest play of modern times, will
be presented at the Belfast Opera House
Friday evening, May 31st. by Mr.. Edward E.
Rlce's superb company. The story OF
"When We Were Twenty-One' is simple.
1t turns on the determination of middle
aged bachelor to save the son of his dead
friend from the follies of youth. He takes
the boys sins on his own shoulders and
the sacrifice which he makes results event
ually in his own happiness. In all the
action realism is rampant but there is
always underlying it pure sentiment,
wholesome and true. William Morris plays
the leading role.

anything to this country. At the same
time, if Cuba should be attacked, the
Cubans would look to US to save them,

FIXING Up DISTRICTS.
Republicans VIII Follow Example of

Chairman Hayden and the house leg
islative apportionmenr committee have
about completed their schedule in re-
districting the state. A great many
changes have been made, overturnires
the Populist apportionment of several
years ago.
Brown county will have two districts
instead of one as now. Stevens county
will be attached to Wichita county in
one district. Grant, Stanton and Has
kell win be in one district. Grant ard
Stanton together did not poll enough
votes at the last election to entitle them
to a representative Haskell can now be
Joined to them, because Gray alone now
has enough for a representative.
Sedgwick county viii be re-apportion-
ed so that there will be two safe Re
publican districts instead of one Re
publican and one Populist. Butler and
AtchisoD will be cut up the same wa7.
Wyandotte and Leavenwoth are chang
ed SO that two out of three viii be Re-
publican instead of Populist. Shaw
nee's boundaries will be returned to con-
form to the commissioners districts and
Douglas will have boundaries changed
also.

TO CURE THE GRIP.
Advice of a Famous Physician.

AQV1CC OF a 7 d141OOS Il y S1SA1A4S
First and foremost REST.
Take care of yourself. Your already
weakened nerves want rest, and must
have it. If the attack is severe, go to
bed and remain there. More fatali-
ties result from neglect of this pre-
caution than from any other cause
Eat sparingly. Your digestive or
gans are in no condition to take care
of large quantities of food.
Drink plenty of pure, cold water
1t allays the fever, stimulates the kid
neys to action and opens up the pores
of the skin. Keep the bowels open
with DIR. Miles, Nerve and Liver Pills.
Take three doses of DR.. Miles, Nerv-
inc per day, and if you cannot sleep
take an extra dose at bed time. To
further control the fever, and to over
come the peculiar aches and pains of
grip, use DR.. Miles Pain Pills. They
act quickly and effectually, and no bad
effects result from their use. These
remedies have been thoroughly tested
more than a million times, and their
efficiency is thoroughly established.
They never fail to give relief.
DIR. Miles Remedies can be found
at any drug store, and they are sold on

BANK BILL PASSES.
House Takes of ssFour Times Limit"
on Loans.

The banking bin giving banks permits
sion to make unlimited loans was pass
ed by the house this morning, unchanged
from the form in which it was adopted
in committee of the whole
It was held up several days for a new
proposition to be inserted. Bowman, of
Anderson wanted the provisO put in
when the -four tines limitation was
raised that all loans above that amount
be required to be on gilt-edged securi-
ties only. His amendment named gov
ernments state, county and city bonds.
Mr.. Bowman says that since he made
this proposition to the author of the bill,
J. B. Adams, of Butler, the judiciary
committee had taken up the matter and
was in favor Of making the change.
But during the recess over Sunday, he
held a meeting and determined that the
bill must go through just as it is, taking
off the -four times limitation" without
proviso Of any kind as to the class of
securities to be invested in.
BOWmanS argument Is that wildcat
speculation can now be INDUCED in by
the little banks and they can be taken
in on worthless securities sent out By
big monied institutions in large cities
without the state. which are on the
verge of failure
There was a shortage of votes for the
bill on the floor of the house when the
fingers and had to have a call of the
house. The members were driven in out
of the halls and cloak rooms in a hurry
and the rounding brought in just enough
to give the constitutional majority. The
vote was 81 to %.
