AT CASINO THEATRE.
Jake Wells Offers Vaudeville Bill
 This week.

Jake Wells announces as the attraction at his Picketts Spring Casino theatre all of this week Miss Leah Russell and one of the strongest vaudeville organizations playing the Wells circuit.
 Vaudeville is popular in Montgomery and if Mr. Wells's offering for the com in!g week Is up to the standard of his reputation in this line, packed houses will no doubt prevail.
 Summer amusement seekers complain of having to center their mind on a plot which must be followed for three or four acts and seem to prefer the class of en- tertainment which shifts scene and vari- ety every few minutes. The vaudeville performer of today concentrates his or her ability in their particular line of work and leaves the audience calling for more. It Is different with the average legitimate actor. It requires unusual ver- satility to prevent an audience from be- coming tired of the mannerisms of a per former for two hours and usually the performances drag for at least the length of the last act. To this fact many as- cribe the popularity of vaudeville.
 Leah Russell is perhaps the most orig inal woman in vaudeville. It is said that her act has never been copied by anoth- CT and she is termed ''the David Warfield lady" This great comedian and Miss Russell are great friends and were asso-
 
 Weber and Fields companies.
 Miss Russelrs act consists of an imi- tation. of Warfield singing a Hebrew par ody on MT. Dooley,'' telling facetiouS Hebrew stories in diaie t and giving an imitation of an East Side Hebrew sou- brette trying to sing a popular medley which. Is given in half Hebrew and half English. The young woman is comedy. modishly Igowned and adopts no freakish makeup, depending entirely on facial ex- presslons for her effects.
 Stanley and Cammetta in their farce Mrs. OGrady's Wash Day. are said to be among the best Irish sketch come dians in vaudeville. Stanley introduces q comedy wire act which is replete with difficult feats.
 Sadie Townsend. a contralto soloist of unusual range of voice will sing the pop ular songs of the day, while Harry Hol- den in his humorous monologue is said to equal the great Ezra Kendall.
 The Browning sisters in their Florodora speciality have been among the greatest hits of the Wells houses and Harry Wise and the Carlson Brothers complete a bill of variety and strertgth.
 Matinees will be given Tuesday. Thurs day and Saturday at 3 o'clock.

MIR. WILLIAMS DEAD.
Farmer Succumbs to Wound Inflicted
 by Negro.

IT. c. Williams a prominent planter of Chesson, Macon County, died at a Mont gomery hospital last night at 10 o'clock. from the effects of pistol wound ln- fiicted on him Monday by Joe Lee, ne gro field hand on his plantation
 Immediately after the shooting MT Williams was brought to Montgomery The bullet had entered his abdomen and the struggle for life was desperate. Af- ter attending surgeons had despaired of his recovery the deceased fought pluckily for his life.
 Probate Judge J. B. Gaston was called in yesterday to take the ante mortem statement of MT. Williams Surgeons ex- plained to MT. Williams that there was no hope for life, but the statement of the fatal difficulty with the negro of the dying man was rendered legally worthless by his repeated assertions that it was his belief that he would not die.
 Lee is still at large.
 The remains of MT. Williamms will be shipped today to the family burying ground at China Grove, where they will be inferred with Masonic honors at 4 o'clock this afternoon.
 MT. Williams was an active Mason be- ing a member of the Lodge at Fitzpat- ricks.
 Mir Williams was 51 years old He leaves a wife, three daughters and a small son, and number of friends, both in Montgomery and Macon County.

London. Oct 19.-John Morley, M. F., Ithe former liberal, Is in line against the protectionist policy of the present
 goVernment.; MT, Morley returned to. active political life tonight and ad- dressed large audience in the historic Free Trade hall at Manchester. He aroused immense enthusiasm by an ell loquent and spirited attack on the new policy, which, he declared, he was ar rayed with the whole weight of author lity, both practical and oratorical. So crude, raw and unthought out were the proposals launched in this country that men of all parties, liberals and conser- lvatives, were united in opposition to them.

Morley, Il1ad been invited to put it's ancestors, hike Golden, Bright and Peel, up to auction, but when he thought how right Golden and Bright had been as to free trade, the French treaty of 1860, the Crimean war and the American war, he was not going to apologize for tfle--ss

CARNEGIE IN WATERFORD:
Proud to bo A..oelatsd on Roll Win
 Redmond and Dillon.


 Dublin, Oct. 1s,-The freedom of the city of Waterford was bestowed on An- drew Carnegie to-day.
 In his speech of thanks, Mir. Carnegie declared he was proud to be associated on the roll of freemen with John Red mond and John Dillon. two patriots who were doing what they thought was best for their country according to their lights. Mir. Carnegie also paid a trib- ute to the tens of thousands of Irish persons who had been in his employ, saying he always felt proud when they said they ''Iiked the little boss" Emi- grafton to America was now lessening and he was glad to know that Ireland, after long centuries of misfortune, was about to march forward on brighter path. A large measure of justice had recently been given to Ireland, which. he trusted, was only the precursor of more to come. It seemed to him that the prince had made memorable visit to the Cinderella of nations, and that she was soon to become a princess among her sister nations"
 MT. Carnegie subsequently laid the foundation of library and was enter tained at a public banquet.

TALE IN SECRET PRACTICE.
First of the ssa.on at tho Field Ysster

F-
 As in previous years no effort in the coaching line is to be spared to make the Yale team perfectly fit for the com ing struggles on the gridiron with Princeton and Harvard
 As an evidence of this was the pres- ence on the field yesterday of that greatest of all Yale guards, Heffelfin- ger; also one of Yale's most famous quarterbacks, Vance Mccormick, and Charlie Chadwick, who was also great guard and who is a brother of Captain Chadwick of last years team.
 For the first time this season Yale held secret practice. It lasted fifteen minutes and it is understood some new plays made necessary by the new rules were tried. 5
 Public practice was held after. Kim ney and Bloomer were on the field but did not line up. Kinney's ankle is still bad and Bloomer's stomach is weak. Flanders was in Bloomer's place and Turner ins Kinney's. The scrubs were given the ball on their own twenty-five yard line and rushed it down the field for a touchdown, Preston making sev- eral good runs . .s

 FOR HIM.
self f-Proclaimsd Prophet Faces an Im- mense Throng which Dwlndies to . Few Hundred while He speaks . Frets, Fumes ana Threatens-fIis Re- spects Paid to Newspnpermen.

New York, Oct 18.-When MT. Dowie opened his night meeting in Madison Square Garden tonight he faced an immense throng; when he closed it his audience had dwindled to only a few hundred people besides the host he brought with him from the west. He fretted, fumed, threatened, cajoled, and finally resorted to the use of epithets, his hearers meanwhile leaving the meet ing, several hundred together, downing the sound of his voice.
 He had announced that tonight he would tell how it was revealed to him that he was Elijah and also that he would have something to say to the newspapers and their reporters. His talk, which was lnterspersed with sew eral hymns, at times fhen the tramp of those leaving the hall was more than his voice could overcome. was devoted chiefly to denunciation of tobacco smok- CTS, liquor drinkers and newspaper men, all of whom he classed as dirty dogs and adirty birds. < l Several times the audience hissed Mir. Dowie. After one such demonstration he shouted: We come here and we get your impudence, but will get your hearts and then I'll get your pocket books
 "There is nothing so joyful as spend- ing money for the Lord" he continued. They say came to New York for money. I do not deny the soft irn- |peachmert.'' [ He said the story that his wife lost a $1.500 diamond pin was un- true, as she never owned a pin like that, nor had she lost anything. The tales printed about his people being hungry were all lies, he said. He had licked" the press of Chicago, he shouted, and he would flick" the press of New York He would lick these vliltures.
 |. Finally he came to the promised story of revelation. He quoted Scripture to show that Elijah was to come a third time. A minister had told him that he was Elijah, but he was loath to believe it. but finally after going over the sit uation carefully he made up his mind that he was truly Elijah. Then at the opening of building in Zion two years ago he had proclaimed himself Elijah, well knowing the fearful responsibilities of the restoration that he must. as Elijah. lead.
