MeIodrama mt the Park Theater.

Last winter, at Pittsburg, two murderers
named Edward and John Biddle, who had
been condemned to death, escaped from
Jail ard in being recaptured were fatally
shot They were aided by the wife of the
warden OF the Jail and she accompanied
them in their flight. Afterward she and
her husband came TO some agreement and
the newspapers reported that one OF the
Biddles had exercised a hypnotic influence
over her. That is the way in which the
matter is put in play entitled "A Des-
perate Chance, on view at the Park
Theater. In the first act the Biddles are
shown in their murder of a groceryman,
whose house they plundering. The
other scenes are in prison and at the place
where the fugtives fought with their pur-
suers. The play is very noisily acted, but
IL serves Its purpose. which is to draw
money from mentally easy part of the
public. 1t was written by a clumsy dra-
matist named Theodore Kremer. After the
murder is shown the desperadoes turn to
the murdered mans child. who. in a night
murdefers puts his revolver to the child's
draw. This trick causes a gasp and a
shudder In the theater The house was
crowded twice yesterday as result of the
advertisement of the sensational proceed
ings to be offered there. The representa-
ton shocks the nerves and demoralzes
the minds OF easily excited men, women
and children In the place. The harm done
In a community in this manner is not TO
be measured.

INJUNCTION Is GRANTED
GRAND OFFICERS OF KNIGHTS OF
PYTHIAS RESTRAINED.
The Grand Tribunal Heads on an Ex-
penditure of $25, 900 for an Or
phans' Home.

The Grand Tribunal of the knights of
Pythias yesterday announced its find
ing in the case wherein an in
junction was sought restraining Grand
Chancellor Tyndall and Grand Keeper
of Records and Seal Bowers from
levying a tax for and paying an appro-
priation of $4,000 to the Rathbone Sisters
to be used for the establishment of a
Pythians' Orphans Home in Indiana. The
tribunal found for the plaintiffs and grant,
ed the injunction.
Grand Keeper Of Records and Seal Bow
ers stated last night that an appeal would
be taken to the Supreme Tribunal of the
fraternity, which will probably meet in this
city some time next February.
The Grand Lodge, knights of Pythias,
at its last session in this oity, appropriate
ed $4,000 for the orphans home. The prof.
ect had been agitated among the various
lodges of the State for some time and had
an almost unanimous Endorsement Shortly
after the Grand Lodge adjourned the ques-
ton was raised as to whether the appro-
priation was legal under the laws of the
order and the finding of the tribunal sus-
tains the contention that it was not. A
peculiar feature of the case is that some
of the men who were most active in agitat-
ing the home project were the first to
raise the question of the legality of the
action Of the Grand Lodge in taking the
first step toward putting the idea into eff
feet, and were active in pushing the ap-
peal for the injunction.
Prominent Knights of Pythias say that
as an overwhelming majority of the men,
bers of the order in Indiana favor the idea
a way will be found to carry Ii out, even
if the Supreme Tribunal sustains the de-
cision of the Grand Tribunal.

SOME GAS AND MUCH OIL.



R. E. Breed. Of Marion, a prominent
flint glass manufacturer, was in the city
yesterday and at the Columbia Club last
night he was asked about the gas situa-
tion in his city, so far as the factories are
concerned. He said that his factory is
running with gas and that there is no pros
pect of having to take to coal in the i'm
mediate future THE gas supply is di-
minishing, of course he said, "but we have
plenty at present and none of the other
factories is having any trouble as far is
/ know"
w. b. Dodds, also of Marion, who was at
the Denison last night, says that that
city has reached place where the loss of
a factory or two Will not hurt 1t and that
the great oil discoveries in Grant county
have settled Marions future. In the days,
not many years ago, when the city was
known as Marvellous Marion, the queen
city of the gas belt" Mr.. Dodds was one of
the most active real-estate promoters and
spectators there. Real-estate prices not
values, went sky-high at the time and along
with many others Mr.. Dodds made a barrel
real estate and as result when the bot
tom dropped out, and the boom collapsed
to a great extent, he found himself with
town lots to burn and little wherewith to
start the fire. Fortunately, a few years
later. came the oil discovery and Mr.
Dodds now has a derrick, instead of a
house, on most of those lots and he is
fortune. Grant county is the center of
the oil industry in the State" said Mr.
Dodds last night, land Indiana leads the
country in oil production

He Carries a Heavy Grip.

w. NJ. Brezette, general agent for the
Dryden Horse Shoe Company, a Pennsyl-
vania concern, belongs to the class of COM
mercial men who delight in practical jokes
and he has one which he plays on hotel
employees regularly that none but he could
execute. Mr.. Brezette is a giant. physical
ly and among his baggage is an innocent
appearing little grip in which he carries his
samples of horseshoes. The grip weights
about forty-five pounds. When Mr. Bre-
zette goes into a hotel and the bellboys
rush to relieve him of his baggage he has a
way of holding the grip out in a careless
manner on his forefinger. The boy grabs 1t
and in about nine cases out of ten is upset.
It's hard on the boys, but it's capital
story to tell the trade and ii affords Mr..
BreZette no little entertainment.

STORY PRONOUNCED A FAKE.
MOnOn Oficials Say No Attempt Mt a
HOldup Was Made.

A dispatch was received last night from
Frankfort, Ind, telling of an attempted
bold-up on the Monon Railroad yesterday
morning at the little town of Cyclone Lo-
cal representatives of the Monon were
asked regarding the story and said it was
a pure fake" There have been a number
of like stories emanating from the same
place recently, and on close investigation
they were found TO be untrue. Following
is the dispatch:
-Four men attempted to hold up the
south-bound Monon express at Cyclone at
a. m. to-day. The train slackened speed
on striking torredoes on the rails but when
the engineer raced four revolvers he threw
open the throttle. The four men fired rap
idly and often, but all trainmen and pas
sengers escaped. Sheriff Corns and depu-
ties afterwards caught the men, who gave
their names as Charles Johnson James
Mock, Frank Smith and Harry Gray, all
claiming TO live in Cincinnati"

To Clean Your Lace Waist.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
Odd bodices of net and lace are so much
worn of late and are usually such delicate
and elaborate affairs that the woman who
intrusts them to cleaner or maid is ex-
travagant or reckless. The simplest and
safest way to have them cleaned is to do
IL oneself, feat not at all difficult to
accomplish If one but knows the right
way. "A woman who has done four net and
lace shrtwaists in this way declares that
they come out as fresh as ever: Pour two
quarts or boiling water over a muslin bag,
which has been previously filled with bran.
Let the water stand until warm, and we'll
squeez the bag in 1t before taking it out.
NOW take half the bran water, and make
a lather together with soap jelly. Put
your bodice into it. Knead well, but do
not rub. When perfectly washed, put
1t in the clean bran water and shake until
all soap is removed. Fold in a warm, dry
cloth, and put through a wrnger Take a
moderate iron and iron until dry. The
bran acts as starch. Before folding to
put away hang the garment on the back of
a chair, so that no trace of moisture
should remain.

bonnets with velvet strings worn again by
middle-aged women. Ii is doubtful If there
was so grotesque headgear as that worn
at present. / have in mind two women who
have found form of bonnet which is be-
coming, and they wear it with slight and

themselves ludicrous at fashions request.
