No Doctor for Smallpox.

Hon. Stanley W. Davenport and
George b. Butler, directors of the Cen
tral poor district of this county, have
been endeavoring to secure physician
for the past few days to attend man
named Lyons, who is suffering from
smallpox at Larksville, but thus far
they have been unsuccessful They have
offered $40 per day to any medical man
who will attend the case. The young
man has had no medical attendance
since the nature of his complaint became
known.
DR.. Louis Edwards, who has number
OF patients in that vicinity, gave the
guards about the house advice as to
what nourshment would be best for the
young man and instructions as to the
treatment of the corpuscles on the face,
but outside of that he has had no treat
ment whatever.
The family owns three dogs, which
are confined in the house, and the
guards have been notified to shoot them
as soon as they venture outside. All
other necessary precautions are being
taken to prevent the spread of the
disease. Children of the vicinity are
being vaccinated by the score.

THEATRICAL.

The Scranton Tribune of December / =,
1900, in reviewing Mildred Hollands
performance, said: 'As Aria, Miss
Holland had role which offers her
splendid opportunities and none of
them 60 begging. In the first and sec
ond acts, she is the tender trusting
maiden, devoted to her parents. She
has attracted the love of a man of a
higher social scale. To save the life of
her father, and to rescue her mother
from tortures, she allows herself to be
made wanton in the eyes of the man
she loves, and in the scene of the duch.
ess palace, when she has been humili-
ated and disgraced past endurance, all
that is strong and pure within her
rebels at the suffering that has been
inflicted upon her. She has been goad-
ed too far, and like a tigress, she turns
upon the despicable duchess and paints
her picture as she is beheld by virtuous
women. 1t was fine scene and capi-
tally acted by Miss Holland. The fourth
act has also emotional scenes for the
star which were enacted with an
absence of heroics that was admirable.
The staging of the play is presented in
an exceptionally fine manner, the first
and third acts being particularly beauti-
full" The principal members OF the
cast are Lillian Norris, Frances Brooke,
Rita O'Neal, Frederic Ormonde, Frank
Drew, s. A. Rose, l.. D. Wharton,
Leonard Walker, Florence Renner and
many others.
Stetson's colossal dramatic and scenic
production of "Uncle Toms Cabin"
comes to the Grand tomorrow evening.
This production far surpasses that of

attention has been given to the staging
of the piece, and several scenic effects
are magnificent. One of the largest
organizations of white and coored artists
ever gathered together in one combina-
tion has been engaged by MIR. Leon w.
Washburn for this season, everyone of
whom was selected for his or her adapt
ability for the part assigned. A clever
lot of colored people add materially to
the production by number of high-cIass
specialties. The street parade has two
bands of music, number of gorgeous
chariots, tabeaux wagons and little
carriages built at a large outlay of
money, making it the finest free street
pageant ever given by any similar or
ganization.

Even dress shoes are made stouter than for

FASHIONS IN NEWS HATS.

The spring and summer silk hat will be about
one-eighth of an inch lower in the crown than
the fall style. For young men the Dunlap hat
will be six inches in height and the older mems
hat one-eighth OF an IL CHI higher. The new
derby tapers more than the fall and winter hat
the crown is a trife higher and the hat looks
lighter and is not so heavy the derby OF the
fall OF 1900 II varies In height from five 10
five and a half inches. and the brim from, one
and three-quarters to two inches. The ribbed
silk band will be worn silk and derby hats
but without the buckle. The brown and drab
to displace the black with these cOlors has never
made a great impression in the sale of the
staple article. and it will not this season. The
alpine hat, which has not been out of styIe for
several years and which became very popular
two years ago. will he worn again next season
1t will be less stiff than it last year and
will have a narrow binding or none giving II
the appearance of a sombrero or cowboy hat
The hat will have white or black silk band
but folded colored scarfs will also be worn as
hat bands by younger men. Knox shows n
square derby in black and pearl which has a
broad band finished with buckle.
The rough straw hat OF medium height and
less breadth of rim than last summers hat will
be much The straw alpine will not be
worn by we'll dressed men. although the pana-
and MANILA straw hat will be in demand
where men can afford to pay fancy prices.
