The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Halls Ca- tarrh Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby de stroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and as- sisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in it's curative powers, that they offer one hundred dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testi- monials.

Potts Won derIand Theater.

There is something about the bill at Polls this week that draws well and holds the people to the end of the show. Doubtless the strong comedy element is the fascination and certainly the bill Is blessed in this respect, for 1t Is a laugh from start to finish. While Frank Cot tons donkeys are not featured, they are about as funny an act as has been in the house thi swear, particularly when the crowd of urchins attempt to ride their slippery and bucking backs. The legitimate comedies are 'Sapho and Lulu" skit by George M. Conan, and "The Wrong Flat" The former is play ed by the Bennett and Duryea company and the latter by the Edgar and Mabel Norton company. Both are excellent In their line and get lots of laugh. The olio is of surpassing excellence, with rousing act in every number. It in- cludes Ford and Dot West, Dooley and Fowley. Johnnie Johns, Hill and Hull, Sully, Moore and Sully and the vita graph, which in a long list of interest," ing views is showing a sensational rail- way collision that occurred in England. Prices: Matinees, 10 cents and 20 cents; evenings, 10 cents 20 cents and 30 cents ladies at matinee 10 cents.

LNIERJAINJIE ENTS.
Hyperion Theater.


 It would appear that Miss Viola Al
 len possesses unusual judgment in dis. | covering the market and dramatic val
 ue of a play. It was she who discov-
 cred the great merits of the play "The | Christian" after many managers had l declined it, and under her suggestions
 Hall Caine overhauled it to adapt it for
 the stage. One of the strongest acts was at Miss Aliens suggestion. The same was the case with Tn the Palace of the King and at Miss Allen's sug-
 sestion new character, that of Car l dinal Luis de Torres, was added the
 reason for which is obvious. For Phil ip to have stabbed Don John and not the cardinal, as occurs in the book,
 would have absolutely destroyed the in-
 terest in the last two acts of the play.
 It cannot, of course, be known exactly
 how much of the enormous success of
 this play is due to Miss Allen. It is enough that she selected and approved of it as a successor for ''The Christian" and that in 1t she has even exceeded
 the success of the old favorite. It would appear to be exceptionally good luck, aided by good judgment, that an actress should be able to discover two such valuable theatrical properties one after another. Miss Allen Is to present Tn the Palace of the King at the Hyperion on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, May 21 and 22, with the en- tire New York cast. Seats on sale to- morrow at the box office. Prices, night $2 $150, $1, 75 cents and 50 cents; mat inee 50 cents, 75 cents, $1 and $150. Not more than ten sents sold to one per- son.
 The new production of "The Sere- nade," Victor Herbert's latest comic opera. will be sung by the Bostonians at the Hyperion on Saturday, May 25, at the matinee. This year the original group of singers, including Barnabee, Macdonald and Buckingham, has been strongly reinforced by the addition to several young artists who are promised to create a sensation. Among the new corners are John Dunsmure, distin- guished basso; Albert Parr, handsome young tenor; Adele Rafter, contraito; Estelle Wentworth, beautiful young soprano, has returned to the organiza- ton as prima donna. "The Serenade" will enlist all the singers with this great and will be put on the stage with unusual lavishness and splendor. At the evening performance Robin Hood" will be given. Seats on sale Wednesday, May 22. Prices s1.50, s1, 75 cents and 60 cents.
 Klaw & Erlanger will present N C. Goodwin and Miss Maxine Elliott in the elaborate special revival of "The Merchant of Venice" at the Hyperion on Tuesday night, May 2S.

A MOnstrOsity.

Signed articles would give to a papers
utterances the strength and character of the
writer, but for this reason the influence of
the paper might be less than when the writer
is unknown. An equally important reform
might be secured by compelling newspaper
corporation to keep standing in the paper
list of the stockholders and the name of the
mortgage, if any one has a mortgage on the
paper.
This would enable the readers to decide
what weight should be given to editorials, and
also enable them to judge whether those in
control ofthe paper have any pecuniary inter
ests adverse to the interests of the readers
Hon. William j. Bryan.
Of all Mr.. Bryan's shrewdly-stated
comments upon many topics he hasnever
made one more suggestive than that
above quoted
1t goes to the very core of the fruit
that is forbidden to honest journalism.
He should not have stopped with cor
porationc, however. The individual
who is the nominal owner of news
paper, especially a party organ, should
be obliged to state prominently among
its editorial-head attractions the name
of the real owner, or mortgagec.
Think, for instance, of an organ OF
the democratic party enjoying life under
the skinned auspices of republican
mortgag ce-owner.
