Knute Erickson and a well balanced
company of players gave a pleasing
performance of that amusing farce,
"Yon NonsOn." at the Illinois last
night before a large audience. The
play offers much novelty i'm its eN-
position of Anglo-Saxon life and
comedy. and further is fruitful of
original features in the fact that in
the plot, story and dramatic scenes
il treats in quite an exhaustive man
ner of life in the pine woods district
of northern. Minnesota. field which
the ambitious playwright has hither-
to left uneXplored to great extent.

Committee of Fifteen, With Expert

Remedy.

The eighth annual meeting of the
members of the Scandinavian Mutual
Aid association was held at Gales
burg yesterday and over 100 dele
gates from outside the city were
present. For three years the associ-
alton has been approaching a crisis
on account of the failure of the as
sessment plan to provide sufficient
reserve fund. Yesterdays meeting
was chiefly occupied with spirited
discussion of a proposition to change
the old plan. Several new plans were
presented. After a few hours fight
the convention adopted a resolution
introduced by DR.. {. \. Swensson,
president of Bethany college of Linds-
borg, Kan, appointing committee
of fifteen to consider a plan of re-
organization. to employ expert assist
ance and TO report to the association
on April %.

Two literary shrines are. visited
yearly by thousands of American
globe trotters. No similar place i'm

village of Standardization at
tracts such number of curious,
reverent and devoted worshippers as
the old building in the Hirschgraben
at Frankfort, Germany. under whose
roof was born Johann Wolfgang Won
Goethe, who has enriched the stage
with one of the rarest products of
genius. Faust" Like Shakespeare s
Hamlet Goethe's play Faust" has
fallen into many sacreligious hands
to be mutilated beyond recognition,
but in one instance, at least. Goethe's
Faust" has been adapted for stage
use reverently with due regard for
the author. and liberal outlay of
money to furnish proper surround
ings. Lewis Morrison deserves all
praise for his consistent fight to pre-
sent Goethe's immortal poem proper
ly as he has done for the last twenty
years. 1t is pleasant to reflect that
in this case at least reverence for
the author has resulted in an ac-
cumulation of lucre by Lewis Nor
rison and satisfaction to thousands
of people who have witnessed the
Morrison version of Goethe's Faust"
during the past twenty years. The
scenery. electrical and mechanical
effects. the new choral music and
new prologue provided this season
for Lewis Morrison's Faust" are the
most costly and elaborate ever pre-
scented and will be seen here at the
Illinois Sunday evening.

York. Pa. Jan. 23.-A. Il. Farquhar.
of this city. the head of the Farquhar
Agricultural works. and prominent in
national Democratic affairs. has re-
ceived the following letter from eX
President Cleveland. in reply to one
sent him by Farquhar relative to the
relations of the United States with
Cuba. The letter is dated Westland,
Princeton. y. J.. Jan. 21:
My Dear Mr.. Farquhar: L only

iii Il limited way. Tomorrow ! hope
to start on n trip to the south in the
expectation that my health will be
largely reinstated by the outing.
Says IL Is IA Moral Question.
Il received your letter yesterday.
and was much impressed by the man
ner in which You discuss our relations
and our duty TO Cuba. The arguments
used in opposition to the tariff con-
cessiOnS she implores.. based upon our
material interests. are fallacious. mis-
taken and misleading. while their
source and the agencies of their propa-
cation and spread cannot fail TO he
recognized by every honest. patriotic
citizen with shame and humiliation. 1t
seems to me. however. that this sub
ject involves considerations of moral
ity and conscience higher and more

WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN.

Sonoma, Mich, July 21st.-Mr.
Delos Hutchins, of this place, says:
IF 1 could have had Dodd's Kidney
Pills rs years ago 1 would not now
be crippled as l am
Mr.. Hutchins spent from 1861 to
1864 in the swamps of Louisiana as
a northern soldier and with the r.
suit that he contracted Rheumatislr
which gave him much pain till MI.
Fred Parker, the local druggist, adj
vised him to try Dodd's Kidney Pills.
The first two boxes did not seem to
help him very much, but Mr.. Parker,
knowing that Dodd's Kidney Pills
would eventually cure him, pressed
Mr.. Hutchins to continue, and by the
time four boxes were used the short,
sharp, shooting pains which had tor
tured his back, hip and legs were en-
tirely gone. Mr.. Hutchins says: Il
cannot tell you how much better |
am feeling. If it were not for the
way my hands, feet and knees are
drawn out of shape 1 would be about
as good as ever"
