While Miss Bingham is comparative stranger as a star 1t will be readily re- called that previous to her advent into the stellar ranks she had become a popu- lar favorite in New York as one of Charles Frohman's most valued .eading women and had created a number of well known roles In the dramas pro- duced by him at Wailack's, the Garden theatre. the Madison Square. Garrick and Academy of Music. It was during her connection with this astute manager that Miss Bingham determined to v6r- ture under her own direction. and grati- flying this ambition some two years ago she demonstrated not only her worth as an actress of exceptional herit in light comedy, but in emotional roles as we'll

A new comic opera is always popular and the catchy music of '"The Liberty Belles' was greeted last night by pack ed audience at the Jefferson.
 \, hat plot there Is in it relates to two uncles, the one having a niece who Is to have his millions if she remains unmar- ried and the other having a nephew who is to take the other millions if he secures a wife and child The last named couple do the plotting in an effort to capture all the millions of the two uncles.
 Marry Clifford as Uncle Jasper Penny feaker," was admirable his songs and limitations of animals delighted the audi ence and he was encored again and again.
 Violet Dale, as Dorothy Grey, acted and sang we'll and Augusta Gfaze's songs were also appreciated. The Japanese Girl and the girl in pink pajamas were de- lightful. Miss Rooney sang at the open ing "A Little Child Like Me" one of the best numbers in the opera.
 The first act presented a young ladies academy; the second, a cooking school, and the third a Florida hotel. 'The Les son Book Song in the third act was ap- plauded.
 One of the best speciality acts of the piece was that of the two quaker maids who were demure and charming.
 The chorus was pretty active and wore becoming costumes. '"rhe Liberty Belles'' were, as a whole, quite a success.

At the RiJou,

The third week of the new Bijou thea ire will open tomorrow night with one of the strongest bills that has been given the public of Birmingham for long time This class of light and refined amuse- ment has appealed to the local theatre expression of interest and satisfaction that is most encouraging to the manage ment.
 For this week the bill looks strong and is different from anything that has been seen here this season. There will be new styles of novelty acts, new comedy sketch acts and several novelty numbers that should be popular.
 The Adaminis trio a European musical novelty, is an act that is rarely shown in vaudeville. These people are Italians, their costumes being those of Harlequin, Columbine and Pierrot. Coumbines voice is said to be especially pleasing, while Pierrot plays the violinn with sur prising skill. The costumes of these two are particularly attractive
 Baby Lund Is the cleverest juvenile on the American stage. Her singing and dancing Is wonderful for a child of her years and she has scored remarkable suc- cess in all the leading theaters that she has played in.

THE VALUE eF eHARcoAL.
Few People Know How Useful t b h Preserving Health and Beauty.


 Nearly everybody knows that charcoal as the safest and nest efficient dislntect- ant and purifier In nature. but few real ize It's value when taken Into the human system for the same cleansing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that the more you take of it the better; it is not drug ct all. but simply absorbs the gases ana impurities always present in the stom- lach and intestines and carries them out of the system.
 Charcoal sweetens the breath after smoking, drinking or eating onions and other odorous vegetables.
 Charcoal effectually clears and i'm proves the complexion, 1t whitens the teeth and further acts as a natural and eminently safe cathartic
 It absorbs the injurious gases which collect in the stomach and bowels; it disinfects the mouth and throat from the poison of catarrh.
 All druggists sell charcoal in one form or another. but probably the best char coal and the most for the money is in Stuaft's Absorbent Lozenges; they are composed of the finest powdered Willow charcoal and other harmless antiseptcs in tablet form or rather in the form of large pleasant tasting lozenges, the char coal being mixed with honey.
 The daily use of these 1ozenges will soon tell in a much improved condition of the general health better complexion, sweeter breath and purer blood, and the beauty of it is, that no possible harm can result from their continued use, but on the contrary, great benefit.
 Buffalo physician in speaking of the benefits of charcoaf says: T advise Stuart's Absorbent Lozenges to all pa- tients suffering from gas in the stomach and bowels, and to clear the complexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; also believe the liver is greatly bene- fited by the daily use of them; they cost but twenty-five cents. a box at drug stores, and although in some sense pat ent preparation, yet I believe I get more and better charcoal in Stuart's Absorb ent Lozenges than any of the ordinary charcoal tablets"

 "There can never be any question about the popularity of these two young men in New York.

Klaw & Erlanger. under whose management they are beginning their fifth year, have announced the Rogers Brothers this season with the supported them, and the piece in which they appear, The Rogers Brothers in Harvard Is the best that has been turn ed off the point of John McNally's pen for some time.
 '"rhe piece IS by far the most ambitious the Rogers Brothers have yet appeared In. and the music which Maurice Levi has composed for 1t IS the best he has turned out so far The big hit, of course. is the regulation quartet song-and-danee number entitled The Troubles of the Reuben and the Maid which is done this year by the Rogers Brothers.
