Monday evening and the play was lit

promptings and situations showing
that the play was not as letter perfect
as it will be later on.
Miss Wickliffe appeared for the fifth
time in Pittsfeld having played here
four times in the last Is months as
Phyllis IN When We Were Twenty
One" and many went to see her at the
head Of the Barbara Frietchie company
out OF pure admiration for the young
and talented actress. Miss Wicklitfe did
/ not disappoint her Pittsfield friends
lifting her role from the level in which
ether members of the company seemed
to maintain, and shone like star of
the first magnitude.
Especially in the third act in her
scene with her father when her lover
lay dying of wounds her brother had
given the Union officer, was she at her
best and again on the realization that
her lover was dead, was Miss Wickliffe
most effective.
She made sweet, lovable, fascinat-
ing Barbara, investing the character
| with girlish charm and naturalness,
which seemed her highest art and which
made her Phyllis in When We Were

the incline here is completed. 1t must
be completed by March LIST next as this

A BLACKSMITH'S STRANGE EX-
PERIENcE.

Goodland, Kan, June 3.-N. E. AL
bertson, our leading blacksmith, has
been a great sufferer from Rheuma-
tisra. He was so bad that he could not
sleep for the great pain in his arms
and shoulders. He had been Athlete
for years, but lately he was so much
worse, that he thought he would have
to give up his shop altogether.
Then a strange thing happened. A
friend of his recommended new med
icine called Dodd's Kidney Pills, said
to be a cure for Rheumatism. He
commenced to use them and at once
began to recover. His pain has all left
him, and he is a well man to-day, and
entirely free from any symptom of
rheumatism.
To say he is thankful, is putting it
very mildly. He is delighted.
Dodd's Kidney Pills deserve great
credit for having cured this very Sc
we're and almost hopeless case.
From recent reports, there does not
seem to be anything that they will not
cure, as very bad cases of Bright's Dis
ease, Diabetes, Dropsy, Rheumatism.
and Heart Trouble, have been cured by
Dodd's Kidney Pills, even after hav-
ing been given up by the best doctors

SPORT IN WESTERN CANADA.
While the Farmers Grain IL RipenfnE
and His stock Growing Fat, He
May Have Plenty Of Shooting.

There is probably no country on
the American Continent where the
life Of the farmer carries with it
that assurance of comfort and sue
cess as does Western Canada. Nor
is there to be found anywhere else
such a pleasant combination. Game
abounds everywhere and nowhere
does it afford such perfect amuse-
ment. A noted sportsman writing of
the favorite pastime says: ''There is
one particular spot where I saw a
man drop 70 mallards one morning,
and bring them all to bag, too, for
they dropped in open water OF on
fat prairie. AT the right season of
triangles cut sharply. out against the
sky all round you, moving very
swiftly, and you begin to wonder
whether you have enough cartridges
to hold out. You can hear the
prairie-chicken growing like barn
door fowls; and a little to the north
east is bit of marshy ground, cat
tie poached, and dappled with gleam-
| ing pools, where the snipe are near
ly as thick as mosquitoes. A thin
column of blue smoke curling up in
| the distance shows you where few
wandering Indians have pitched their
| camp, but there is no other indica-
! ton of civilization in sight. Still,
the neighborhood is well-settled, and
short drive win bring you to a
farmhouse where you can buy the
] finest butter and the freshest eggs
for uncivilized prices.
"a very short railway journey will
bring you to country full of deer
and the lordly wapiti, the king of
the deer tribe the world over; and
down on the fat, Doggy land by the
lake shores the moose will stand
knee-deep in water on the summer
evenings, ready to lie down when the
flies get bothering. All day you
breathe the wild free air of the
prairie, and at night you are lulled
to sleep by the surge and ripple and
splash of the waves on the beach,
broken now and then by the weird
banshee-cry of strange Waterfowl

MARRIAGE SETTLEMENTS.
John C. Calhoun Regarded Them as
Unfriendly to the Happiness of
the Marriage state.

Just before Calhoun's marriage he
had a long talk with the legal coun-
sci of his sweetheart's mother re-
garding Floride's marriage settle
ment, and directly thereafter, says
George Wolsey Symonds in Ladies'
Home Journal, wrote to his prospec-
tive mother-in-law on the subject:
From prejudice, or reason, 1 have
always been opposed to marriage set
Elements. I think experience and
reason prove them to be unfriendly
to the happiness of the marriage
state; and that they tend to produce
pecuniary embarrassment. In that
state there should be one interest
one happiness and one destiny. That
entire confidence, which is reposeo
by a female in the object of hel
choice, in placing both her honor and
her property in his custody, gives
rise to the most sacred and tendeI
regard. A marriage settlement inn
plies a distrust. 1t is no safety
against inevitable accident. It is 6
guard against the imprudence or mis-
conduct of the husband only.
If successful in life there is no bene
fit in one; if unsuccessful, what more
disagreeable than to have property
but not to be able to pay just debts
1t would to me be wretched. 1t woult
be splendid poverty"

All visitors to Belgium are familiar
with the little carts carrying fruit,
or more powerfu1-looking dogs. In
former days dogs were much more
used for draught purposes than they
are now. A well-known character who
was known as "Old Lal," used to race
the coaches on the North road running
out of London with team of dogs.
He constructed for himself a sort of
blackboard and had harnessed to it
| four foxhounds, who would cover long
distances at a great pace. Later one
Dumsdale used to appear on the high
| ways and race the coaches with a
small wooden cart. Sometimes the
dogs would cover 10 miles an hour
though their natural pace was about
seven miles an hour. Dumsdale's ia
vorite trip was from East Grimstead
to Brighton and back, a distance of 4S
miles. He would make the journey
in "a hours, including stoppages for
rest and refreshment.
More than one instance is on record

traps.
wealthy man of Vienna named
Ooller once built carriage, on which
he attached two bears, while third
was trained to sit beside him on the box
seat. With this extraordinary turn
out Doller appeared in the streets of
the Austrian capital, but complaints
were soon made to the police that
the bears scared horses and provoked
runaways. Doller was forbidden to
drive his team in the city. He then
started team of trained wolves, but
again the police objected to his dis
playing his eccentricities in the
streets of Vienna and he gave up the
attempt to divert the public with
strange turnoutS.
But the palm of eccentricity in turn
outs must be given to an EnglishmaI
named Hubby, who, when 81 years old
travelled from Linsmore to Fermoy il
an oyster tub set on wheels anC
drawn by pig, a badger, two cats ant
hedge hog. He wore high red caI
on his head and carried whip in on,
hand and a tin horn in the other.
