 They have engaged an excellent cast. and have provided the play with a beautiful equipment of special scenery. There are several strong sensational features in the play which is, however. q powerful psychological drama. q grade above the conventional thriller yet lacking neither thrills nor comedy.
 An es3ecial feature of the setting will be the Mcorish room, a scene unexcell- cd in Oriental beauty. by any on the stage. Another beautiful scene is the top Of an old stone tower. The cast is az competent as the scenery is beauti- ful. Reserved seats at Goodman's Price 25c. soc. 75c and S1.OO.

Ambrose. and which was standing on Center street. His only defense is that he was so drunk he di6 not know what he was doing.
 But the interesting feature of the case is that the police believe he is not half so blind as he claims to be and looks upon him as something of fakir. for through his misfortune he has made many friends and picks up d good many odd dollars. When he was jail ed early yesterday morning the police told him it was daylight and asked him why he did not go hone He looked around at the clock and remarked that they were trying to deceive him for it was only five minutes to 9, and he spoke truly. One of the officers says he saw him going along the railroad track one dark night and made a test of the boys eyesight. As he approach ed he showed his bicycle across the track while he stood at one end of the wheel. When Eugene approached in stead Of running into it as a well regu- lated blind person should do. he step ped off the track, around the wheel and back on the track again.
 He is a remarkably bright youth for one of his limited advantages and whether blind or not he can get around town better than most people.

THE FITCHETT DAMAGE SUIT
The Jury Could Not Find a Verdict
 Lat Night.

IL tock all day yesterday to present the evidence in the damage suit of s. F. F!tchett against the Southern Paci- nc railroad. IL took the jury aH night to digest it end the prcccss of digestion at this hour is probably not colnplete. At 10 o'clock no verdict had been re- turned and the jurymen were still ar guinG the matter.
 The case had been somewhat simpH- fed before it was submitted. In the original complaint the plaintiff asked for s15.00O damages. His ticket had been taken up by a conductor of the Southern Pacific and he was required to get off the train ct Tucson where he remained until he could send for some money. A part or the damages claimed was the loss of -he profit in the sale of a mine which was prevented by his detention ct Tucson. That part Of the claim was withdrawn by the de- fsndant, SO that all he asked was re- Endorsement for the ticket and the money he was forced to pay from the point where the ticket was taken up to Tucson.
 There were not many points of diff ference in the testimony. One of them related to the amount F5tchett had paid the conductor. The regular fare from the place where the ticket was taken up was S4.S5. The conductor said that was all he collected but Fitchett said he had paid $5.S5 and pro- duced a receipt for the amount. One of the witnesses said that he had seen Fitchett give the conductor a five dolla-. bill and that the conductor gave him fifteen cents in change. Fitchett said he had given the conductor a s20 .-old piece.
 The other matter in dispute was q conversation regarding the ticket which took place at Tucson. The conductor said that when the train arrived there he told Fitchett that they would go up and see the superintendent about the ticket. To this Fitchett replied that he would do no such thing but told the conductor that since he had the ticket he might keep it.
 Fitchett's version of this incident is that some hours after he had been :n Tucson he met the conductor on the street and the conductor told him that he had a ticket and some money for him. Fitchett had in the meantime seen lawyer and refused to discuss the subject with the conductor any further.
 The arguments in the case were not finished until nearly six o'clock
 There was one interesting thing :n the making up of the jury. One of the questions touching the qualifica-

cIs your mamma cross? Mine Ia awful cross Does your mamma say Hush when you laugh or make little bit of a noise? My mamma does. She has nerves, papa says"
 The mother who overheard this ac- count of herself would feel heart-broken to think of the shadow cast by her misery on those she loved. Yet her condition is real. Her nerves are strained to the point of torture. Lack of appetite and loss of sleep increase her weakness.
 Such a condition may, in general be traced to disease of the delicate womanly organism, cure for which is found in the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- scription. It establishes regularity, heals inflammation and alteration and cures female weakness. It tranquilizes the nerves, encourages the appetite and in- duces refreshing sleep.
