OSTRICH TACTICS.
1fg Bird That Displayed as Much
Cunning as am Apache Indian.

Cunning as Am Apache Indian.
A well known hunter and taxidermist
tells this story of personal experience
In South Africa; it goes far beyond dis
pelling a slaIGer that has long clouded
the fair name of the ostrich;
Arriving at one Of the monster hills
OF the white ant, l climbed upon it and
gaised my observation glasses to my
eyes for a careful survey of the region.
NV first glance showed me, arising
from the dead level of the plain be-
yond, two objects, each having the
form of a capital S. These L knew
were the heads and necks of two os-
triches. Though | believed they had
sighted me, remained immoNaple un-
til their necks were suddenly drawn
down to the level of the tops of the
bushes which screened their bodies.
Then I knew for a certainty that they
were aware Of my presence ana would
make quick retreat.
"Without losing an instant's time
ran to the spot where the birds had
been standing and found their tracks.
These / followed as far as they were
distincuishable and then took a course
which | believed the birds would nat
urally follow No sooner had reached
the top of the ravine than | saw one Of
the ostriches climbing the side hill. Es-
timating the distance, | took sight and
fred. The ball passed Immediately be-
nd ctr11a1- i'm fho canI
of the side hill behind him.
"In an instant the bird darted away
like an arrow in the direction of a
small clump Of bushes III the center of
an open space. That he would pause
behind this bush and then finally
emerge on the other side seemed GER
tain, and | aimed to catch him as he
made a fresh start from behind the
thorn. He few over the sand at ter
rife rate and reached the bushes. Then
I waited fully five minutes for him to
emerge from his hiding, with my rife
ready sighted SO that | could pull the
trigger the second he reappeared, but
| finally went forward to rout him out
| When reached the clump Of bushes,
| nn examination Of the sand .hoWed
that the crafty old bird had shifted his
course at right angle, making the
turn so suddenly that his feet had
plowed up the sand for distance OF
several inches. This wary tact had
| placed the bushes between the bird
and myself, and he had made his way
! to new cover while l was innocently
waiting for him on the other side OF
| the ambush. An Apache Indian could
not have executed this maneuver more
cleverly, and smiled at myself fol
| having ever been foolish enough to be
lieve the traditional story of how the
silly ostrich bnries his head in the
sand and believes that he is thereby
concealed. Philadelphia Post.

Harold Bauer, the Pianist.

MT. Harold Bauer, who will appear in this city at the Jefferson Theatre on February IS, occupies practically unique position among those who are recognized as the great living pianists; yet he has never been heralded as monstrosity. either mentally or physically. There are no narrowing tales told of his early years, no mysterious percentage, love affairs, air-breadth escapes, or any Of the su- pernatural manifestations which usually mark the approach of a great virtuoso and serve to excite the curious, ignorant or the minimizing portion of the general public One may ask in reason this ques- tion: What is there in Harold Bauer that gives him his unique position among pianists if he does not claim the above described real or alleged attributes? The answer is an easy one, and can readily be affirmed by anyone who hears this master in recital or with orchestra. He comes is heard, and proves his position unquestionably by his temperament that convinces all, in these days when per sonality is the great thing m virtuoso, even as it is among artists or public speakers? subjective artist is, first of all musician in the highest and best sense of the word; one who knows not only what 10 uO, put Wndl lO felfdiu doing; one who is master of expression, vet without extravaganza or undue senti- mentality, a finished technician who uses such means simply to further artistic ends; one who Is individual, yet using such individuality in a manner that the composers intent Is pictured to the lis- tener with the utmost clearness. and the personality of the performer forgotten for the moment in the completeness Of a perfect musical portrayal. MT. Bauer IS universally admitted to be, by thousands | of music lovers that have heard him among the greatest of subjective artists i one who combines all the above men tioned qualities in such a manner as t
 make his performances of the highest en
 joyment, as we'll as of the greates
 musical value. This Is the secret or hi
 success, obtained in a legitimate and un | obtrusiye manner, free from the hourlsi 1 of brazen trumpets, beating Of drums o
 clap-trap of any sort.
 Mir Bauer comes to Birmingham fresi
 from his triumphs in the old country, ant
 also the eastern states, and is spoken o 1 by the critics, who all agree In this on'
 great measure that MT. Bauer is an ar
 list of the highest individuality personal
 ity and feeling, and his work is mastery and complete. showing temperament
 and ability which are unquestionaoly tn'
 greatest attributes that belong. to sucf | a man.

 The Rossi Brothers, comedy acrobats will also introduce a variety of amuse- ment which is new to the patrons of the house. They will do more of the real work requiring strength and training than any of the previous acts, but still they are said to have sufficient comedy.
 Ida Marie Rogers will present new feature also. She is a mimic and shows the peculiarities of many persons whose names are known the world over.
 The comedy sketch has been missing from the two bills yet brought to the Auditorium but it is a part which can not be kept away long. It furnishes one of the best and sometimes most amusing features of the bill. MT. and Mrs. swichard will present a rural comedy sketch this week.
 Boyce and Wilson, black faced comedi- ans and grotesque dancers, are announced as a pleasing number of the programme.
 Will Strong comes with just a plain title. He is called a comedian and If he lives up to his calling he has hearty welcome waiting for him this week.

There will be the daily matinee except Monday.

The onion is undoubtedly a wholesome article of food, in fact has many medici- nal qualities of value. but it would be difficult to find a more indigestible art- cle than fried onions, and to many peo- pie they are simply poison, but the onion does not stand alone in this respect. Any article of food that is not thoroughly di- gested becomes source of disease and discomfort whether it be fried onions or beef steak.
 The reason why any wholesome food is not promptly digested is because the stomach lacks some important element of digestion, some stomachs lack peptone, others are deficient in gastric juice, still others lack hydrochloric acid.
 The one thing necessary to do In any case of poor digestion is to supply those clements of digestion which the stomach lacks, and not hing does this so thorough ly and safely as Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets.
 Dr. Richardson in writing a thesis on treatment of dyspepsia and indigestion. closes his remarks by saying. for those suffering from acid dyspo psia, shown by sour, watery risngs. or for ffatulent dys- pepsia shown by gas on stomach, causing heart trouble and difficult breathing. as well as for all other forms of stomach trouble the safest treatment is to take one or two of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal. I advise them because they contain no harmful drugs, but are composed of valuable digestives, which act promptly upon the food eaten. I never knew a case of indigestion or even chronic dyspepsia which Stuart's Tablets would not reach.''
 Cheap cathartie medicines claiming to cure dyspepsia and indigestion can have no effect whatever in actively digesting Xl4a. 4t.. s1s cine cure for indigestion is a mis- homer.
 Every druggist in the United States and Canada sells Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and they are not only the safest and most successful but the most scientific of any treatment for indigestion and stom- aeh troubles.

The Casino Girl.

For next Saturday matinee and night the Jefferson Theatre announces as the attraction the international success, The Casino Girl" which is said to be the best of the many musical extrava- ganzas that George w. Lederer sent out from the Casino. The piece was origi- nally produced at the Casino in the fall of 1899, and after an extended run at that home of polite gayety was taken to the Shaftesbury Theatre in London for the late spring season. In it's English engagement the extravaganza was suc- cessful and the run was continued for the better part of a year. So popular did the piece become with our English cousins that three companies were or ganiZed to exploit the merriment in the provinces, and so favorable were their reception that their tours have been con tinued to the present time. The original company returned to this country late last spring and played a supplementary season of six weeks at the Knickerbocker Theatre, New York and was withdrawn to fill engagements in Philadelphia and | Chicago. Outside of these cities in this country "The Casino Girl" has not beer l seen, and this season the entertaining | young lady will for the first time be taken to the majority of the principal cities of the United States. Managei Samuel E. Rork under whose personal direction the tour is being made. vii present the original production of tho Casino, and he guarantees a cast and ensemble of superior excellence.

HATS IN CHURCH.
A Preacher Asks the Woman to Re-

From the London Express.

From the London Express.
 A popular preacher, whose church is at fashionable seaside resort, recent ly made somewhat remarkable request to the women of his congregation from the pulpit He boldly asked them to make a practice of taking off their hats at ser mon time.
 My church" he explained. lis not built like a theatre. Now, if the ladies, in all kindness and good manners, remove their hats during the performance of a play at a theatre, where the seats are grad ually raised one above the other, l am sure my hearers can have no reasonable objection to doing the same here.
 Ut is primarily question of good man. ners It is very annoying to be compelled to dodge between a lady's big or little hat to see the preacher Besides, you know that many peoples eyes seem to assist their ears-that is to say they think they can hear better if they can see.
 People want to see the minister when he is preaching, and to have to dodge about interferes with the proper under standing of the sermon; while for the preacher to see a lodging congregation has a distinct effect on his delivery of sermon,
 q also want the women to have their hats off in order that they may be quite at ease. Moreover, it is said that nearly every woman looks best with. her hat off.
 '"To be sure. people like to look theii best which is quite proper; but it al comes back to the matter of the greatest good to the greatest number.

Miss Roosevelt to Attend Coronation


 Washington Cor. of Chicago Tribune.
 While it is still true that no official con- firmation can be obtained of the report that Miss Roosevelt is to be present at the coronation of King Edward, the story was substantiated completely this afternoon through unofficial sources. The President it is said. has consented at last that his eldest daughter may go abroad, provided she does so merely ss an American young woman visiting Spe- cial Ambassador and Mrs. Reed. Miss Roosevelt will not be expected to rank as the daughter of reigning sovereign, or will she be accorded any eourtesies or un- usual position beyond that to which she would be entitled as the house guest of the Special Ambassador of the United States to the coronation.
 It is more than probable that Com mander Cowies, the brother-in-law of the President will go to the coronation as an aid to Captain Clark. the representative of the United States navy. Mrs. Cowies. although the Presidents sitter, will derive her rank entirely from her husband. and neither vii ask nor accept any special favors.
 The President has been particularly in- sistent upon this point, and does not in- tend that his daughter shall be made the basis Of any diplomatic maneuvers, The present arrangement is that she shall be the guest of Mir. and Mrs, Whitelaw Reid. The President has at last yielded to her repeated request, but only upon the conditions outlined above. and his de- sires will be communicated to the British government officially. so there may be no attempt to magnify into a state affair Miss Rooseyelt's visit. which is merely the natural result of young woman's desire to see a brilliant cere- mony.
